'highlighted IM boxing action
jlast night.
From the first bell to the last,
| both boys tossed ring finesse to
'the winds and concentrated on
'throwing heavy leather. George,
isix inches taller than the stocky
' Slagle, utilized his height and long
'arms by firing crosses and upper
;cuts from long range.
Near the end of the bout,
Slagle moved under a right and
hammered a blow to the side
of his opponent's face. It ap
peared as though George would
fall, but he recovered fast and
hung on to win a split decision.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1959
Phi, and Beta Theta Pi’s Jerry
Marshall pounded out wins in tho
158-pound division.
Booker, using an unorthodox
bob and weave style, combined
a good left jab and ring savy to
win a unanimous decision over
Robert McCown of Alpha Zela.
In a flurry of fists midway in
the second round Marshall un
loaded a bomb and Theta Chi’s
Glenn Weishaar found himself
sitting on'the canvas. Thereafter,
Weishaar resorted to hit and run
tactics and Marshall was awarded
a unanimous decision.
Robert Sutherland and Igor
Bak, two independents in the
heavyweight division, adhered
to the old adage “a good defense
is the best offense,” because
neither boxer emerged from his
protective shell. The result was
a very uneventful match, with
Sutherland, the more aggressive
of the two, being handed a unani
mous decision.
James Thompson of Della
Tau Delta, last year's fraternity
champ in the 135-pound divi
sion, forfeited his bout to Phi
Delta Theta's Robert Elliott.
