IM Boxing Drops Lid
On Fast-Moving Week
Stinging fists crunching on reddening skin turned Recreation
hall into a pandemonium through six bouts last night—then the
hoarse cries of a frenzied gallery suddenly faded to an unexpected
climax. The drop in spirit was caused by the announcement that a
half-dozen other fights had been won by forfeit.
With the fistic season rapidly
moving to the point where one or
two more wins could mean a
class championship for a boxer,
IM officials were disappointed
about the large number of with
drawals.
But with 12 new battles on tap
for Monday, Eugene C. Bischoff,
director of IM athletics, hopes to
reach the furious peak attained
earlier this week.
FANS SHAKE HALL
Unaware that their enthusiasm
was short-lived, fans shook Rec
hall from deck to rafter last night
as they watched mostly middle
weights vie for cracks at their
respective crowns.
Clark Young and Henry Van
Hallewyn, 155-pounders, rang
down the curtain with a half
wrestling, half-slugging battle
that reached the zenith in excite
ment. Young, of Tau Kappa Ep
silon, poking hard with left jabs
to his opponent’s face, carried
early fighting, but taller Van
Hallewyn, Delta Chi, staved off
the on-rushing disaster, and ag
gressively fought back to cop the
verdict
VAN HALLEWYN
FIGHTS BACK
Fans thought Young had the de
cision in the bag when after the
first round, varsity coach Leo
Houck, noting Van Hallewyn’s
expression, questioned the Delta
Chi’s ability to continue. But
Van Hallewyn came back, and
strong. His long rights, barrel
housing into Young’s head in the
last stanza, tired his shorter op
ponent and awarded him the de
cision.
Earl Brown, slick jabbing 135-
pound Negro from Omega Psi
Phi who thrilled the crowd earl
ier in the week with his come
back win, wasted little time last
night in sweeping to victory.
Feeling out his ground, jabbing,
then bursting out in a mad-house
fusilade of blows, Brown pum
meled John Hunter, Sigma Chi.

a close decision in the 135-pound

Despite a turn-about third

Clyde Wilson, Alpha Gamma

Ralph Fritts, Delta Tau Delta,
in the 175-pound class. Forced to
follow Fritts around the ring and
slip in punches when he could
catch up, Wilson walloped the
DTD boy completely out of the
running.

Costa who stood out in the Lion’s
recent 40-33 defeat. He expressed
amazement ’at the, play of the
giant Costa who couldn’t make
the squad at California State
Teachers College as a freshman.
The Nittany prexie said, “Costa
shouldn’t be as gooa as he is, what
with only one year’s experience.”
Terry Ruhlman also came in for
a share of the praise. The rugged
forward had only a week to get
into shape after an illness, and
after he smoothes off the rough
edges, Lawther expects him to
develop quickly.
One of Lawther’s main head
aches is to weed out a few de
pendable reserves before entrain
ing for the Capitol City. At the
present time Lou Lamie, of
Arnold, and Ken Weiss, of Allen
town, rank as the first two sub
