Those who harbor any ideas of dethroning the defending champion Oklahoma Ag- gies are flirting with disappoint- ment. Tcurnament officials, participants and fans have become accustomed to reserving first place in the team scoring for Coach Ed Gallagher's Cowboys from Oklahoma A. and M. College. Nine times in the past 11 years the Oklahomans have romped off with the National Championship. Repeats Himself “This is the best team I ever coached,” said Gallagher, after his squad had won its first four dual meets this year by one - sided seores. But he said the same thing last year before his Aggies made off with both the National Collegiate and National A.AU. fitles. In fact, he’s said the same thing nearly every season since, he be- came coach of the Aggie wrestlers 24 years ago. Seventeen of his 21 teams have been undefeated in dual competi- tion; (There was no wrestling at the college in 1918 and 1919.) all-time record is 125 dual meet victories, four ties and five de- feats. The secret of Gallagher's success is a “farm system” that would put the St. Louis Cardinals to shame, and a scientific technique which the 54-year-old mentor figured out while studying engineering. Gallagher, who was a football and track star but never wrestled in his college days, injected the principle of leverage into the mat sport. He made Oklahoma mat conscious, - Draws on High Schools High schools took up wrestling. Today all the larger high schools in the state and many of the small- er ones offer wrestling as a major sport. . Wrestling coaches in at least 16 of the larger state high schools learned the sport under Gallagher. ‘When their stars go to college most of them choose Oklahoma A. and M., taking with them all the tricks taught them by Gallagher’s pupils, including a few extra ones picked‘ up by those same pupils since de-! parting from Gallagher’s squad.
