year, two 175 pounders taxed each

round- marathon in Rec Hall. Der

until it looked• like an open and
shut bout for Derbyshire, but a
spurt in the last round played his
opponent down and Borges copped
the bout.
Good, Phi Kappa Sig entrant, put
up an impenetrable guard that kept
McCormick from scoring. Being on
the defensive throughout the
match, McCormick conceded the ,
fight to Good.
A power house right hand that
always seemed to step up at the
right time kept Russel, Sigma Nu,
guessing in his encounter with
Mattern, Phi Delta Theta slug
master. Regardless of Russel's at
tempts to guard his head, Mattern
caught him napping for a second
and crashed through what guard
Russel could. offer.
Adding life and stamina to the
bouts, Compton matched Starr in
a three round encounter in the 'l2l
pound class. Playing a tightly
cocked left to Comptoifs jaw, Starr
kept his opponent on guard; but
the third round when he began to
tire, ComptOn opened 'up With
rights and lefts that toppled the
fight right into his lap.
