But, in spite of this, the team was organized with Sam Wlilliams lg ft . iv' captain. Meets were arranged with M. A. C., Michigan State Normal College tis ' , , of Ypsilanti and with Grand Rapids Y. Due to a late start, it was impossible , f l to schedule other teams. ' In the lirst meet, that with Grand Rapids, the Detroit team was nosed out 1 3 by Z points, due mainly to the superior showing of Howard Rose, the premier ' V free style swimmer in the State. Then M. A. C. came to Detroit, but went hack j , to Lansing much wiser. They were beaten 37-51. In this meet, George Peckham L was the star, winning both the 50 and 100, and being a member of the winning Q T relay team. Sam lYilliams won the 220, Chaffee took the back stroke, and 7 ' , jaenichen took the breast. Ypsi was the next victim, this time being beaten 5 y , i l i' in her own pool by the count of 40-18. In this meet, as in the previous one, Detroit took tirst in every event except the diving. After a lay off of three 3ff,.'fiig '31 weeks-,the State Normal team was again defeated in the Y pool, this time by ' yi, the score of 32-26. Thus out of four meets, the City team won three and lost lj , the other by 2 points. 1 I George Peckham was the outstanding star of the team, winning 1111 points Vi A in every meet. Chaffee and ,laenichen were the other best point winners, with ' A ' ' Sam XVilliams following. Captain Williams was not entered in the final meet. 2 ' It is expected that next year the college will be represented by an even better I 1 team and will present a better schedule. Members of the team are: Captain Q - Wlilliams, Chaffee, jaenichen, Peckham, Broker, Drane, Taylor, Ertel, Pascoe, T . and Mclintee. The team was managed by jack Milligan. L 2 BOXING AND XVRESTLING , Q , . 5 A great deal of interest was shown in boxing and wrestling during the last i , I year. There were over 100 men in the classes of both sports. Norman VVilliams ,' had charge of the wrestlers, while Michaels and Hoover, also students in the '34 college, instructed the students in the manly art. If the enthusiasm of the iimtfifi ' ' college men continues to grow as rapidly as it has in the past, boxing and wrestling 5 will undoubtedly become major sports. At the U. of M. Carnival, Red Meyer . and Michaels put on exhibitions that pleased the big carnival crowd. The i Detroit men's fighting showed that City College men compare favorably with ' , 5 , Q those of the State University. The Michigan Daily gave a draw decision in Q . I the tight between Michaels CC. C. D.J and Markiewicy tU. of MJ. The same 2 1 5 3 paper gave Hart of Michigan the decision over Red Meyer of Detroit. Two 2 3 I f tournaments were held during the year, with the results given below. All winners 1 f A 1 in these contests were given attractive gold medals for their proficiency. The , i I . student instructors were not allowed to enter the first tournament. i : A-.Q -u M - -wii.. ...R . . . . ...a tix T.: l-Pla-. , 'QffZfQ . Q7? ?f'X., ...Qi aff. . iimffifi. Q.. ff-. 119 i
