This " tiny freshmen" must have earned a Pink, even if it is not the custom to hand out the recognition so early in a College sportsman’s career. Surely this is an exceptional case. It is only a couple of weeks ago since young David was being talked of as the star of the team in the Association Football Club’s marathon Collingwood match in Belfast. He is a consistent performer, who shows the attacking wing-half play to good effect. If the soccer team played at the week-ends, Wheeler would have to choose between that game and hockey. But as it is, he turns out regularly with the 2nd XI " stick men," and, as the reports have it, "he could be in the First." Not satisfied with ball games, he dons the gloves :in the evening and his natural boxing instinct has earned him a place in the Trinity team. This is no mean feat, for Trinity have no equals in the ring. It would have been sufficient, even for the severest critic, if David had " put up a good show" at the Universities’ Championships in Reading last week. Instead, he took the fly-weight title and defeated the "Can’t hear myself talk at lectures these days, holder in the process. And this was only his all the students are eating Tayto Crisps." third (yes, three) fight, not one of which has "Try some to-night with a pint and you’ll see why, Tayto are terrific." gone the distance.
