IM boxing roared into its third
day of the 1951 tournament with
19 men adv'ancing in their re
spective divisions, nine moving
up through forfeits.
Earl Hower, Phi Delta Theta,
finished strong to cop a close de
cision from Charles Wetzel, Pi
Kappa Alpha, in the lone heavy
weight match of the card.
Quick Win
Two 145-pound fraternity bouts
were fought and thr e e others
scheduled resulted in forfeits.
Sigma Nu's Dave Bischoff out
steadied Ronald Frear; Phi Kap
pa Tau for the decision and Fred
Sprinkle, Delta Tau Delta, turn
ed back Jake Highton, Pi Kappa
Phi. Bischoff outjabbed Fr ear
who was continually circl i n g.
Sprinkle dropped a tired, smaller
Highton down midway in the
final round with a short right that
sewed up the decision in their
145-pound go.
A ringing left from the person
of Richard Zucker, Phi Sigma
Delta, sent Alton Brence, Theta
Kappa Phi, tumbling to the can
vas just after the opening bell
of the scheduled three-round 175-
pound fight. Brence never re
covered and Referee Eddie Sul
kowski stopped the bout at 58
seconds of the initial round.
Good Left '

advancing. Lauer, after taking a
sharp rig h t to the nose that

kept a menancing left hand in the
face of Sam. Porter, Phi Delta

the win.

Liotta Death
Puzzles
Authorities
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 29—(JP)
—Villanova • College authorities
began an investigation today in
to the death-of football star Dom
inic (Nick) Liotta, whose death
was reported variously as result
ing from a hanging or a heart at
tack.
Liotta, who had been chosen
on •the Football ,Writers' Associ
ation's All-America team, wa s
found dead in the basement of
his dormitory yesterday.
The Villanova College te am
physician said that Liotta had
been suffering from "mental de
pression" for several days.
May Take Steps
The death of the 22-year-old
football star was the most recent
development in a long series of
mishaps which have befallen col
lege football this season.
It was considered possible that
-Liotta's untimely death might
provoke some college authorities
to take steps to curtail intersec
tional football• contests.
While the fact that Liotta was
required to do much travelling
wiht , his team was not listed of
ficially as having had any bearing
on his death, • there were some
persons familiar with the situa
tion who believed that it did.
Beneath Piping
Some sources said that Liotta
was "dog tired" from making the
trips, from playing 60 bruising
minutes a game and from trying
to keep up with his studies. He
had the highest average of any
of the players on the Villanova
team.
Radnor Township police re
ported that Liotta's body was
found beneath a piece of piping,
that a telephone wire was coiled
about his neck and that the wire
had been hooked over the piping.
