O’clock Tomorrow Night SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY WINS 2 MEETS, TIES 2 Leo Houck Undecided in Lighter Entries—McAndrews Slated for 145 Dr CHARLES A. MYERS *3l Closing one of the longest pro-sea son practice'periods on record, Nit tany -boxers will push the leather against eight tough University of North Carolina Tarheels in Recrea tion hall at 8:15 o'clock tomorrow night. Contrary to general opinion, the opening meet on the Lion schedule will be no set-up. - The Tarheels have already fought four meets, securing 6-to-2 triumphs over Virginia Military and Virginia Polytechnic Institutes, and 4rto-4 ties with North Carolina State College and the University of Virginia. Last year they dropped a 5-to-2 decision to the Nittany ring men. Ralston May Fight Coach Leo Houck is rather unde cided as to just who he will use in the lighter weights tomorrow night. Jim Ralston looks like the first in line for the 1.15-pound call, but Heras imchuck, Miller, and Crcsswell have been pushing him hard. Cliff Glover, who was knocked out by Davey Stoop last year and who has lost three of his four fights this season, will be the Tarheel entry. Johnny Napoleon seems to have the . edge for pound nod, and if he steps into the ling tomorrow night he will have a .tough assignment in Captain Marty Levinson of the visitors, who has won all four of his fights this year—two! by the knockout route. Levinson laid Bas Clare on the canvas last year when Napoleon was forced out of the linoup because of doctor’s orders. Kessler To Box In 155 The Lion 136-pound entry, which will be either Paul Ferrero or "Red” Palasin, will meet the Tarheels’ latest sensation in Norm Quarles, who lost week defeated -Bobby Goldstein, of Virginia, winner of the national col legiate lightweight scrown here last April. Quarles was undefeated ns a freshman, and has registered -three straight knockouts this season.' - Captain Johnny McAndrews, fight ing in the •welterweight class for the first time, should have no trouble in hammering out a decision or a knock out over either Raymer or Lumpkin of the. Tarheels. “Mutt" Kessler, Lion 155-pound sophomore, stands an even chance in the scrap with Lump kin or Mclntosh, both of whom have rather unimpressive records this year. Tom. Slusser will meet Guldens, a Tarheel who has won three and lost one fight this year, in the lds-pound bout, while Frank Nabel faces an ex perienced 175-poundcr in Brown, who defeated Slusser last year. In' the heavyweight division, Dick Woolbert will meet Landis, a “killer" with three knockouts and a decision to his credit this year. ■ tVELLESLEY SUPERVISOR WILL GIVE TALK HERE To Address Open Meeting in Home Economics Building Wednesday Miss Florence Jackson, supervisor of vocational guidance at Wellesley' College, will give an open lecture in the assembly room of the Home Econ omics building on “Modern Women in tho Modern World," at G:45 o’clock Wednesday night.
