litz were the winners in other battles

bell. with Reid, Omega Psi Phi,
in a close tussle, while Grifferty,
Delta Tau Delta,. came on with
;a late rush to snatch the nod
from Jim Sickelsmith, Delta Chi.

own way until midway through
the middle found. At this point
Grifferty rallied with a sharp
series of left and rights to the
head. It was Grifferty on top
from that point until the final
bell.

boxed nicely, using a stinging left
jab to good advantage to gain a
decision over Joe Lordenman,

left and right to the jaw at the
close of the first round, Nemeroff
