by "STAN'*. t)o you know t h a t ? ' ' The wrestling teams of Omaha . Central High School" and those of Omaha Tech number several Jewish lands on their rosters.

"Wrestling recently was adopted by the' coaches and principals of all the Omaha High Schools as an inter"" school sport. . Elmer Greenberg, the Central High all. state football player wears the purple and white of Central in the heavyweight class. The Central squad has met only one. school on the mat as yet. Elmer thru his oppontent, Gridly the North High football captain after a tough tussle."Elmer"Has little science but loads of strength and should show a great deal .of improvement .in his next match;-Mynster^ the Tech heavy has wontwovictories in two starts and is probably the only. serious obstacle barring Greenberg's path to the heavyweight ; crown of the city. 5 The other Central bone crusher is f • a little 95 pound fellow .by the name of Shriebman.' (He. $s a brother to the former Y. M.ILA, Junior baskettall star and present. Thorpeian bas. ketball man) Shriebman: defeated his Eskimo foeman in jig tirne. He> showed much promise and should' defeat his future opponents with little trouble. , ,' .

Tech High has Nathan Marcus, the 155 pound Freshman football team captain upholding her colors in the middleweight division. -Marcus -is long, lanky and full of fight., He is one of the most promising.wrestlers at Tech. This embryo Stechef has engaged in only one encounter, defeating his man quite hadtfy.: Nathan has not been in the best of condition since this mutch; old footbal injuries^ bothering him. He'.", will be in; good shape for his next meen and it would not be surprising to see him the possessor of the middleweight wrestling title of Omaha.

Tech's two 95 pound matinen are not in the class of Shriehman off Central. Red Greenberg lost his first encounter to a superior foeihan/ He however may make ^ a surprising comeback.'

Saul Graetz, the other ant weight wrestler also lost his "first" engagement. Saul however made a fine showing losing by a 35 second" time decision. He was handicapped by a sore hand suffered in training the day before'the meet.
