Turn Back the Clock
WHO said they never come back?
Yesterday, a one-time Wolverine
National wrestling champion at 145
pounds dropped in to see the boys at
Yost Field House and couldn't resist
the urge to take another crack at it.
The good-looking, dark-haired
young man was Harold Nichols,
Michigan mat captain in 1939 and
National Collegiate champion that
season. Although four years have
elapsed, Harold still weighs in at
154 pounds.
Now a physical instructor with the
Army Air Forces at Mitchell Field,
Long Island, Nichols is combining a
furlough and honeymoon. He was
married last Saturday to his collegeI
sweetheart, Ruth McCain of Clark-
dale, Miss. where the ceremony tookj
place.
1JAROLD hasn't slowed up much
in four years. He wrestled with
Warren DeLand, Bob Allen (Var-
sity 165-pounder) and George Cur-
tis (Frosh 155-pounder), and went
through his unlimited bag of
tricks.
His younger brother, Don, wore the'
Maize and Blue for Michigan wrestl-
ing teams also, and annexed the Na-
tional Collegiate crown at 175 pounds
in 1940. Don is now piloting a pas-
senger airliner.
Harold is particularly remember-
ed for his unique system of paring
pounds before a match. He would
weigh 154 pounds 24 hours before
weighing-in time. The day before
would include a stiff workout that

would sweat off six pounds. In the
evening he would dring a bottle of
citrate of magnesia and a glass of
fruit juice. Next day he would
weigh in at 145 pounds. In between
the weighing-in and the match,
Nichols would eat and drink bring-
ifig his weight up to about 151
pounds by wrestling time.
IT GETS IN THE BLOOD: Do you
remember Michigan's third-string
halfback, Warren Yaap? He had the
misfortune to play in the Wolverine
backfield with, Tom Kuzma, Paul
White, Don Robinson, Bob Chappuis,
Cliff Wise, Frank Wardley, Bob
Wiese, Don Lund, etc. Well, Yaap is
back on Campus. However, he is now
a student in the Meteorology Train-
ing School at East Quadrangle . . . .
IT'S A SMALL WORLD: Who
would ever think that two former
Michigan men would bump into
each other in Wisconsin. The draft
took both Frank Wardley, a reserve
halfback last fall, and Johnny Mc-
Carty, a trackman who showed
great promise as a freshman. Both
had weak eyesight and were
shipped to Camp McCoy's Limited
Service School. Recently they ran
into each other at Camp....
DOWN FLORIDA WAY: Uncle
Sam has scattered Michigan men in
every direction. At Miama Beach are
Don Robinson, captain of Michigan's
1943 baseball team; Chuck Kennedy,
second-string end last fall; and
Dutch Heid. All are, in the Army Air
Corps. The other night Kennedy and
Heid had the evening off and went on
an ice cream and milk binge.
