The Old Liners will not be rep
resented in the annual Southern
Conference boxing championships
at the University of Virginia
this weekend. AS it was neceS-
sary to send a full team, Coach
Billy Whipp decided that the
Marylanders we're not sufficiently
strong in every class. Maryland
had two fine prospects, however,
in Bernard Keener, welterweight,
and Francis Holloway, light
heavyweight.
Fine Prospect in Keener
Keener. perhaps the best boxer
on the College Park squad, won
all his matches in the three dual
meets in which Maryland en-,
! gagged. Holloway won one bout
in the heavyweight class and an
other one as a light-heavyweight,
his proper class. He lost a deci-
sion to the v. M. I. heavyweight.
