VI " AAAVAAAS
Catholic University's varsity
boxers were returned winners last
night over Maryland'S ringmen in
an informal boxing meet, staged
in the presence of some $500 fans
in the c. U. gym. The high spot
of the night was reached in the
final round of the 135-pound
class when Thibodeau, c. us
rugged lightweight, twice floored
Burns, Southern Conference final
ist, and defeated this year only
by Bobby Goldstein, Virginia star.
Thibodeau took a verdict over the
Old Line star.
One of the matches which
pleased the gathering was that
between Thompson and Doherty
in the intramural championships
of C. u, staged before the in
formal varsity meet. At the con-
clusion of the bout Doherty was
given the decision, but the match
was so closely contested that,
until the decision came no one
present could tell which boxer
had won.
The famous Packy Mcfarland,
once great lightweight conqueror
of champions in three divisions
of professional boxing, and re-
Gently made chairman of the Il
linois boxing commission, refereed
several bouts. Packy, Of the Gene
Tunney type of pugilist in his
day, has been a banker for O
number of years, but retains his
love for boxing. He was given q
great ovation when he was intro
duced to the crowd.
