1948 winners and five of last year's champs, will step into

laurels in the 13th annual NCAA boxing tournament.
Back from last year's field, which was generally regarded
as the best of the post war era, will be Ted Thrash, L.S.U.'s
130 pound winner; Leonard
Walker of Idaho, who has
moved up a weight from 135
to 145; Cody Connel, of Minne
sota. who has moved down a peg
from 165 to 155; Carl Bernardo,
Miami's 175-pound king; and the
NCAA heavyweight champ, Marty
Crandell of Syracuse.
Returning from the 1948 Olym
pic year fold will be Ernie Char
boneau, of Michigan State, then
at 112 pounds, now at 125; Steve
Gremban, of Wisconsin, then at
119, now at 125; Herb Carlson,
of Idaho, title winner in 1947 and
1948, now boxing at 165; and Vito
Parisi, Wisconsin's elong at e d
heavyweight.
RUNNERS-UP
And just to be sure there'll be
no lack of competition in every
class, six runners-up from the
1948 field will be on hand to
mix it with the champions.
The runners-up, with tap rec
ords again this season, are Mac
Martinez, San Jose 125-pounder;
Norm Walker, Idaho's 135-pound
battler; Pat Daugherty, Michigan
State's 145-pounder; Jim Gem
mel!, 165-pounder also from Mich

POSSIBLE THREAT
A 22-year-old, 205-pound giant,
Jack Scheberies, of, San Jose
State College, has emerged as a
"dark horse" candidate for NCAA
heavyweight honors.
Scheberies, who moved into the
heavyweight berth when last
yecr's runner-up, Don Schaeffer,
was able to make the 175-pound
weight, is unbeaten in eight bouts,
and is credited either with a
knockout or technical knockout
in every start. His coach, DeWitt
Portal, regards him as an out
standing prospect for National
honors, and• thinks the keen com
petition will bring the best out
of him.
The emergence of Scheberies
as a threat definitely establishes
the heavyweight division as prob
ably the most talent-loaded class
in the tournament. Defending the
title he won last year from Schaef
fer will be Marty Cranclell, of
Syracuse, challenged by his
three-time conqueror, Chuck Dra
zenovich, of Penn State. and a
whole phalanx of stand-outs,
among them Gabby Marek, of
Michigan State, Bill Kellum, of
Army, and the 1948 NCAA cham
pion, Vito Parisi, of Wisconsin.
THE LIONS
Wearing the Blue and White of
Penn State will be 135-pound
John Alabarano; 145 - pound
Frankie Gross; and at 155 coach
Sulkowski will counter with Pat
Hems.
