cas, Army, to move into today's
145-pound semi-finals. Gross will
face Western Maryland's Harry
Lafue, whom he defeated in dual
meet competition.

aggressiveness against his taller
opponent. Unable to get in close,
Gross was forced to fire at long
range.
Jim Huba, Syracuse, reversed
a decision Hanby gained over him
in a dual meet earlier this season
by virtue of two good rounds.

two hard lefts to the head and in

but the Virginian had piled up too
much of a lead in the early
frames.

of the bout between Western
Maryland's Joe Carloto and Ca
