Between Rounds
After Chuck Drazenovich had
put his Coast Guard opponent to
sleep after only 20 seconds had
elapsed in the first round EISA
final, a young Virginia lass in the
front row of the stands com
mented. "It's not fair to let such
R big bully step into the ring. He
could have hurt that nice Coast
Guard boy for life!"
It seems that college boxim:
coaches depend on football play
ers to fill their starting positions
in the light-heavy and heavy
weight classes. Bucknell's heavy
weight Hal Swanson plays full
back for the Bisons.
Bill Kellum. Army's heavy
weight, holds down a first team
end position on the Cadet grid
eleven He scored two touch.lowns
against Navy last year. Michigan
State's 175 - pounder, George
Smith. plays quarterback and
calls signals for the Spai tans.
Ralph Shoat. Virginia's 175-pound
RIBA king, plays halfback. while
Lac Hamblen, Cavalier heavy, is
a guard.
REBROADCASTS
After the semi-finals bouts of
the recent EIBA tourney, a group
of Lion boxers were riding to the
hotel in ti cal listening to a re
broadcast of that evening's bouts.
Following the Jackie Tighe, there
came three more fightc and then
it was time for the Bob Keller-
Bill Caldwell contest.
Keller anxiously a waited to
hear his fight over the airwaves,
but in vain. At the outset of the
fight the announcer said: "We
now switch you back to our main
studios for a short while." When
the program was shortly switched
back to the boxing tourney, the
first thing heard was: "The win
ner—Army!" They'll do it every
time!
EIBA sidelights Everything
was in an uproar in the Lion
dressing room before the open
ing bout of the tournament. All
the boxers were there but no uni
torms One cf the managers had
forgotten the squipment in a taxi
nd ft er an all city alarm was
spread over the radio the cabbie
finally returned with the equip
ment.

Watch on the Shrine
Shortly after the end of the
Easter vacation, College sports
fans will have the opportunity to
view something new when Re
creation Director Ray Conger
will exhibit movies of winter
contests.
Boxing, basketball, gymnas
tics and wrestling will be the
agenda for successive Thursday
nights, although the order of the
presentations has not as yet been
decided.
The value of last Fall's foot
ball films, both for entertain
ment purposes when presented
to the student body and as used
for analytic study by the coach
es, prompted the winter sports
films.
10,000 FANS
An estimated attendance of
8,000 were in attendance at the
showings of the nine grid games,
with an additional 2000 filling
Schwab for the twin showings of
the Cotton Bowl thriller.
Coaches and players alike
closely scrutinized the players'
mistakes, detected by the camera,
were remedied before the next
Saturday had arrived.
According to Conger, the Nit
tany Lion athlete who pesters
him the most for glimpses of the
action films, is boxer Johnny
Benglian.
"Johnny can't wait until I re
ceive the films back from the de
veloper," comments Ray. "When
I do receive them, he'll sit for an
hour or more observing his mis
takes and imperfections," adds
the Blue and White --ports pho
tographer.
Evening athletic contests in
Rec Hall had early presented a
problem to Conger when the
lighting proved too weak. Strong
