Heavyweights Pace IM Boxing Bouts
Sparked by the battle-happy performance of the heavyweights,
Intramural boxing fans got more action than they expected last
night at Recreation Hall. '
Although only two bouts had
and furious inside the ring. This
weight limits where five differ
ent fights brought thunderous
roars from the fistic enthusiasts
on hand.
Hokaj Wins on Decision
Phi Kappa’s Ignatius Hokaj and
Theta Chi's Jim Caldwell started
the evening off in a battle of the
unlimited. Caldwell, a lefty, put
up a good strap but Hokajs bet
ter style provided him with a split
decision victory.
The only Independent contest
of the night was next on the
card. In this encounter of 145-
pounders, Neil Gearhart used a
strong right hand to dispose of
John Schneider. He won on a
unanimous decision.
Harry Dangerfield, a pint sized
scrapper from Pi Delta Theta,
pushed and mauled his way to a
split decision win over Pm Sig
ma Kappa’s Gardiner Eldridge in
a 135-lb. attraction.
Top Lightweight Bout
The next match was probably
the best of the lighter weight
classes. In this, one Gene Foster,
Phi Kappa Sigma, gained a split
decision win from Ray Starr of
Kappa Sigma. .Both boys fought
well, but Foster’s attack was con
vincing to the judges.
Theta Kappa Phi’s Sid Kurtz
slugged his way to a split decis
ion win over Bill McAbee, Phi
Delta Theta, in a 128-lb. bout.
The match was fought on an even
keel most of the way.
Ed Henrie, Sigma Alpha Epsi
lon, lost a heartbreaker to Ray
Flint of Theta Kappa Phi. The
match was only 18 seconds old
when Henrie, on an attempted
jab, threw his shoulder out of
whack, forcing Sulkowski to halt
the fight.

The next match, a 135-lb. bout,
lasted until six seconds of the
second period had gone by. Then
Wilson Reitz, Sigma Chi, blasted
Gerry Lofink, Theta Kappa Phi,
to the canvas with a right to the
head.
The next three fights were per
haps the best of the evening.
Fans Get Laughs
Dan Zellem, Theta Chi, and
Louie Orehek, Phi Kappa, gave
the fans plenty of laughs before
their 165-lb. match ■ was over.
Though both were using an un
orthodox style of leading with
both the right and left hand,
Zellem emerged victorious.
There was no question that Del
