Grey Climaxes Busy
With EIBA Crown
Jackie
Career
Jackie Grey is one of the busiest men on campus. Not only is he
Ail-College Proxy, head waiter at the Corner Room, and head of his
'■own family but he also has found time to be one of Leo Houck’s best
boxers. Several months ago Jackie was the only Lion to return from
Syracuse with an Eastern Intercollegiate Boxing title.
Looking at the 121-pound champ, on? would never guess that he
was a boxer and a very good one at that! Jackie is a handsome, quiet
lad and looks anything but 'a boxer
This year, Jack’s second on the
boxing team, proved to be the.cli
max of. a bniliant career that
started back in Cooperstowhship
High School where Jack .played
quarterback on the football’’ team
ond also Captained the team in'his
senior year,
. After a successful season in In
tramural boxing, Jack decided to.
fry the boxing game and fought
for Leo Houck’s colors in the 121 ■
nound division in his. sophomore.
O' ::y Unished third in the EIBA
finals that year and ended up with
a season inter-collegiate record of
six and three.
Taking time out from his ath
letic achievements to turn to poli
tics, Jack was elected to the Soph
'omore and Junior class preiden
cies; All the while, he was work
ing steady at The Corner.
Then came the 1943 boxing
season. Jackie won four , while
only losing two in regular inter
collegiate matches and then went
on to capture the 121 pound EIBA
VAiwnat'the Syracuse finals and.
the' ' Outstanding ' Senior ; Boxer
trophy at the end of the season.
Jack won something more import

Army (alls Karver
For Training
Distance Star Unable
To Run in Penn Relays
Penn State’s hopes tor placing
in the Penn Relays, set for April
23 and 24 at Philadelphia, were
shattered when it was learned that
Gerry Karver, Lion star miler, re
ceived orders to report for meteor
ology training as soon as possible.
Although Karver has not receiv
ed a definite date on which he
must report, it is doubtful whether
he will be able to participate in
the relays in the Quaker City next
week.
Should the change take place
immediately, Coach. Conger will
have to move several of his run
ners into key positions to fill the
vacancy that will be left by Kar
ver in three of the four relays in
which the Blue and White thin
clads are scheduled to run.
In the distance medley event,
Dibeler and Jones are possible
starters along with Cliff St. Clair.
Coach Conger may rely on Curt
Stone or Mac Smith to anchor the
mile in this event.
There. is also a possibility that
St. Clair and Mitchell Williams
will be moved to more prominent
positions in the other relay races.
With the moving up of several of
the runners, others will be able -to
make bids for starting positions
on the squad roster which Conger
will take with him to Philadel
phia.
Don Harris, Dave Carletpn, Ru
fus Williams, and John Foreman
are also being counted on to make
bids for starting positions on any,
of the . four relay squads.
Rufus "Williams and- Block are ■
expected to take care of the 220- •
yard dashes in the sprint medley
event. . Marty Schiff, Lion dash'
artist, is out for the remainder of
the sfeason after being confined "to
bed with pneumonia recently. • 1
With..the probable 'loss of Kar-' •
ver, the Lions will not be as heav- '
ily favored in the relay events as ’
they were previously. Fordham
and New York University are
banking on taking several of the
prolonged races despite the fact
that NYU has lost the services of
its star miler, Dixon. Fordham will
be strong with the speedy No- ,
wicki doing ( the anchor chores for
Rams.
