'FELD OLYMPIC TITLE Another Michigan athelete has made good in the "big time." EdI Oeorge, erstwhile defender of the Wolverine heavyweight wrestling honors, has established his claim to the World's heavyweight mat championship by winning two out of three falls over Gus Sonnenberg in a match held at Los Angeles, Wednesday. The former intercollegiate and Conference title-holder lost the first fall to the champion in 14 minutes and seven seconds, but Sonnenberg could not withstand his aggressive tactics and was pinned in 20 minutes and 30e sec- onds to even the match when George nailed him with a double wristlock and a scissors. The third and deciding fall came 12 minutes and 52 seconds later when the former Wolverine pinned his op- ponent with a Japanese armlock. This defeat ended the reign of Gloomy Gus which has continued for 23 months during which time the champion had gone undefeated. Ed George was one of the great- est matmen ever to wear the Maize and Blue. His great size and strength were coupled with an amazing speed and his knowledge of the more intricate holds of the game carried him through the ranks of collegiate wrestlers unde- feated. In ;the last Olympic games George added to his glory by taking the heavyweight title for the United States team. He last won the West- ern Conference championship in 1928, during which year he was undefeated. Stribling and Griffith to do Battle Tonight Two of the country's most out- standing heavyweights will be seen in action tonight at the Chicago1 Stadium when Young Stribling and Tuffy Griffith meet to exchange' punches in a ten-round battle. Al- though the fight is expected to give the fans more for their money than1 most recent battles Stribling is theI general favorite.1 I. f I I it ANNEXES TITLE IL I' PUCK TEAM OPENS r SEASON TOMORROWI of Michigar Western Ontario Seeks Revenge on the for Last Year's 2-1 Loss and Blue at Hands of Wolves. when the invades th When the Michigan hockey team day.

Despite the fact that a consider- able number of days' workouts lie behindthem the freshmen basket- ball squad still showed a definite lack of well-grounded fundamen- tal play in yesterday's drill on the field house floor under the super- vision of Coaches Ray Fisher and Jack Blott. It was evident that the two coaches' main problem rests in the improving of the yearlings' fundamental work before they can be given any great amount of training in the finer points of court play. ALUMNI F1IELOSES TO VARSITY, 3214 Orwig and Lovell Prove Stars of Grad Team; Wolves Lead at Half, 16-4. By sinking long shots the Varsity basketball team defeated a group of Michigan Grads led by Bill Or- wig and Lovell last night in the Yost field house by a score of 32 to 14. In the first half the Varsity gain- ed a lead of 16 to 4 over the Grads when Daniels sank 3 "long toms" and Weiss added 2 more from the floor. Williamson brought the to- tal to 12 points with a field basket. Due to the clever guarding of Or- wig and Lovell the regulars were held at bay until Daniels started the procession of counters by ar- ching a long shot. Hudson was in- serted into the lineup and made 2 baskets as the half ended.
