DU Regains IM Boxing Title
As Close Bouts Mark Finals
By JOHN MORRIS
Split decisions and close
bouts were the order of the
nirht as IM boxing came to a
close before 1000 fans in Rec
Hall last night.
Delta Upsilon sent three box
ers into the finals, and although
onlv one of the representatives
won a championship, DU’s point
total was great enough to regain
the team trophy from Phi Kappa
Psi.
Richard Greenleaf. represent
ing Delta Upsilon, started the
evening off bv decisioning Tan
Kappa Epsilon’s Jim Mac Kay in
a bout between two scrappy 128-
pounders.
Bill Hunt, an independent,
used Bob Davey's unusual head
down style to his own advan
tage to win the indie 128 crown.
He scored with uppercuts and
side-stepping left hooks to the
head. Davey was game, but
couldn't touch his dancing,
flashy opponent.
In the fraternity 135-pound fi
nals, Bill Laman of Sigma Nu
won out over Dave Barnett, Phi
Epsilon Pi Laman scored early
with a two-fisted attack that
sent his foe reeling against the
ropes. Barnett got stronger as the
bout progressed, but couldn’t
overcome Laman’s early advan
tage
Slick Sam Clayton, fighting as
an independent 142-pounder,
to decision Danny Ruckman,
used speed and a sharp left
Ruckman scored in the last round
with a straight right, but it was

and counter-punched his way
to a win over Frank Pittman,
Beta Theta Pi, in the 150-pound
match.
Bill Russ, the only representa
tive of defending team champ Phi
Kappa Psi, landed enough long
right-handed bombs to post a
split-decision win over Omega
Psi Phi’s Bill Booker in the 158-,
pound weight classification.
In one of the two one-sided
bouts of the evening, Terry Sny
der stalked Jim Dawson through
the first two rounds before catch
ing him with a withering flurry
that stopped the bout in the final
stanza.
A 1 Kuosman, last year's 155-
pound fraternity champ, -moved
up a notch to the 167-pound
level, but it didn't affect his
winning habits. Kuosman. Al
pha Chi Rho, defeated Jim An
derson of Della Upsilon in a
close bout.
' In the indie 167-pound match,
Gary Rickard won a split-deci
sion from Ron Avery. Rickard
had a little trouble finding the
range in the first two rounds,
but landed several good rights in
the final stanza to pull out the
decision.

way to a split-decision victory.
Robert Sutherland won the
second one-sided bout of the
evening by overwhelming Hank

in doubt from the opening bell
because the out-classed Marino
