team Miami had ever faced. What the Hurricanes did in that game is now history. The Manhattan team, expecting an easy victory, was outplayed in every period of the game by the inspired Hurricanes, who pushed over the only touchdown of the game in the final period and then added the extra point for good measure. The win firmly placed the Hurricanes among the outstanding football teams of the East for 1932-33. The frosh opened their season with a hard earned victory over the Florida Military Academy of Jacksonville by the score of 6-0. Led by the fleet-footed and elusive Cecil Cook, Miami quarterback, the Frosh scored early in the third period after being held scoreless in the first half. With Fahrney and Hankin hitting the line and Baker and Cook circling the ends for substantial gains, the Frosh placed the oval on the 2 yard marker, from which point Fahrney went over for the only score of the game. The cadets presented a stubborn defense but did not threaten the Miami goal line at any stage of the contest. The next two games were with the Florida Military Institute of Haines City, Florida. The Frosh won the first at Haines City by a 6-0 score. The second, played in Miami, went to the Frosh by the lop-sided score of 31-0. The yearlings continued their victorious march by defeating Tampa Junior College 14-0, for their fourth straight triumph. The Tampa lads were unable to pierce the hard charging Frosh line and never threatened to score. The last game on the schedule brought the powerful University of Florida Frosh team to Miami for a game with the Baby Hurricanes. The Baby Gators, the best team ever turned out by the state institution, handed the Miami Frosh their first defeat of the year by the score of 26-14, and the first defeat ever suffered by a Miami Freshman football team in the history of the school. The game was one of the best seen in Miami for some time and a huge crowd was in attendance. The Miami boys tried hard but the Gators superior weight and reserve strength proved too much. Nevertheless, Courtney’s lads put up a great battle and caused the Florida team many anxious moments.

Wrestling The Florida Gators proved a jinx to the Hurricane wrestlers, turning back Miami’s grapplers by a 20-10 score, in the only meet of the Hurricane mat men. It was the worst drubbing ever administered to a Miami wrestling team and the second consecutive setback handed the Hurricanes by the Gators, who won last year 16-14. Captain Jimmy Abras and Larry Leftkowitz accounted for the Hurricanes total of 10 points, both winning their matches by falls over their Gator foes. Florida, presenting three State champions in their lineup were too strong for the Hurricanes in the other weight divisions, winning all of the remaining matches. Dick Lewis, wrestling his first year on the Hurricane team, lost a thriller to Holland of Florida, while Olin Snowden, another first year man on the Miami team, gave Si Osgood, Florida’s outstanding threat for the next Olympic title, a fierce tussle before bowing in defeat. The veteran A1 Kutrzon lost a close one to Terrell of Florida after a spirited battle. Kurtzon suffered painful injuries to his arm and shoulder early in the bout but displayed great courage and stamina to stick out the full time. Heyman of Florida handed Reichgott his first defeat in three years of college wrestling, while Land of Florida proved too strong for Kasonof. Abe Wineburg, Florida's heavyweight, again proved his superiority over Johnny Peter-nich by winning with a time advantage in impressive style.
