n'aries."
BEST BET
Coach Houck rated 130-pound
Glenn 'Hawthorne as the Lion
boxer with the best Chance of
bringing, home a title. Winner, jn
the ELBA tourney here earlier thi s
month, Hawthorne has defeated
Dick Mlyagawa of. Wisconsin who
is given a good chance to reach .
the finals.

the best shape he has been in this

Wiscomln, but Houck believes that
the 165-pound ELBA title-holder
can defeat the Badge r if he meets
him in the tourney.

Jim Cassidy, who gave NCAA
champ Cliff Lutz a. close battle
here last month, is also given good
dhances by the coach. Cassidy
