,nent and final Olympic tryouts.

The first pair Of the 1873 boxers en-
tered will get to work then. The
last pair il expected to finish about
dawn.
Three Of the 1927 national cham
pions have entered, two Of them to

both Of New York, who won the lat
pound and 16O-pound titles here =
year ago, have returned to defend
their crowns. George Hoffman, an
other New Yorker and holder Of the
175-pound title, has taken on too
much weight and has beer forced to

The other members Of the New
York team are almost equally ca
pable and upon them rests the re-
sponsibility Of hating the invasion
Of California boxers who threaten to
clean up the tournament. The New
England boxers appear less formid-
able than in forner years. San
Francisco and Los Angeles have
sent strong delegations and several
other faraway cities are ably repre-
scented.
An impressive array Of college
boxers has entered, Including men
from the u. s. Military and Naval
academys. Ring champions from
Yale, University Of Florida. Univer-
sity Of North Carelina, Pennsyl-
vania Military academy, University
Of Nebraska, Denver university,
University Of California Stanford
university and the University Of
Georgia have also entered.
This outpouring Of collegiate tai
ent is due to the Olympic tinge
which the nationals took on this
year. Several Of the college boxers
have almost nctional regulations
