Olympic Team Victor.


MATT TWOMEY'S Olympic A. c.
'A annexed the team championship
for the fourth consecutive year, piling
up 35 points on scoring basis of 10
points to the winner and 5 to the
loser. Washington Boys Club and
Jewish Community Center teams tied
for second honors with 20 points each.
Representative Fred Hartley, spon-
sor Of the bill which legalized boxing
here, awarded trophy to Gevinson,
as the outstanding performer OF the
tournament.
Except in the mind of Matte Brown,
there was little doubt that the sharp
faced Olympic puncher deserved the
honor. Gevinson stopped Billy Tar
dugno, highly touted j. C. c. scrap
per, after So seconds Of the third
round.
Lou dropped the game Tardungo
with a looping left to the face whicn
found Billy still groggy and on the
floor, as Referee Denny Hughes count
ed the fatal TO- Brown, however. was
vehement in his protests that his
fighter was not counted out and con-
tinued squawking until boxing COM
mission inspectors quieted him.
Shub Takes Hot Scrap.
TN THE most furious fight Shub won
a split-decision verdict over Mike
Morton of the Merrick Boys Club.
Morton, golden gloves titleholder,
clipped Shub with two hard rights to
the head in the first round which
staggered his southpaw opponent.
Shub rallied, however, and managed to
offset Mixes early lead.
Just how Judges o. U. Singer and
Jim Sullivan found Joe Petro winner
over Angelo PappaS in the 112-pound
encounter probably will remain un-
solved.
Pappas, the aggressor throughout,
peppered Petro continually and hoored
Joe in the fourth round. Referee
Eddie Lafond voted for Pappas. The
judges decision was booed heartily
Murray Kanner, ponderous Marine
Reserve heavyweight, ruined Rube
Hayman's dstic debut by knocking out
the former Central High School and
Dewitt Prep athlete after ! minute and
so second of the fourth round.
Allen Gets Up to Win.
CRAWLING from the canvas In the
~ first round. Creighton Alleu,
Northeast Boys Club, rallied to score
a technical knockout over Ralph
Smith, Olympic middleweight. Smith
absorbed a terrific lacing in the
fourth round and Referee Hughes
rightfully refused to allow him to
answer the bell for the fifth heat.
The 11s-pound title was annexed
by George Pickeral, Olympic A. c.,
who pounded out a clean-cut decision
over Preston Drew Of the Terminal
Y. M. c. A.
Jim King, former Tech High grid
iron star, was another fighter who
pulled himself from the floor to win.
Frank Nebel, Washington Canoe Club,
socked King to the canvas for a nine
count in the first round, but King
poured both fists into Frank through
out the remainder of the fray to gain
the light-heavyweight title.
George Abrams, Washington Boys
Club, trounced a teammate, Steve
Mamakos, to take the welterweight
championship. In 60-pound exhi-
bition bout, Danny Petro and Charley
Petro, who apparently stepped directly
from the cradle into the ring, battled
to a well-received draw.
