Tied at the end of the first two
rounds, Jack Sheehe, Lion 145-
pounder, completely outclassed his
Cadet opponent in the early mo
ments of the last round. A vicious
right inflicted a cut on Cadet
Puckett’s face and Coach Billy
Cavanaugh immediately stopped
the bout, thus denying Sheehe a
clear-cut victory.
Jackie Tighe also had to settle
for a draw. Boh Howell, regular
105-pounder fighting in the 155-
pound class, was his opponent, and
after a gruelling three rounds the
referee judged the fight a draw.
Jackie’s nose, long a trouble
spot for him, again suffered a bad
out and the Lion captain may be
unable to compete in any further
boxing competition. His nose re
quired nineteen stitches last year.
