BY BURTON HAWKINS.

4 airy 13.-Equipped with the
famous "die for dear old
~ Rutgers" spirit, but not much
else IN flstic line to cope with
Maryland's crack boxing team. the
Scarlet proved an unwilling victim
in extending the Terp victory streak
to six consecutive matches in bowling,
6la-112, here tonight at Ritchie
Coliseum.
In retaining its undefeated status,
Maryland allowed Rutgers to win only
one bout, the final, and gain a half
point through mutual consent of the
rival coaches to split the point in the
heavyweight argument. The Scarlet
forfeited the light-heavyweight bout.
The Old Liners made the all-uni-
versity night program complete sue
cess by smothering Virginia Military
Institutes basket ball team, 1923,
in the opening event of a lengthy
card before a capacity crowd Of $500
spectators.
Start With Knockouts.
I'D SHEGOGUE, Maryland ll0-
- FOUNDER. sent the Terps off on the
right foot, whipping right paw to
the pan Of one bewildered Bill Car
iste to score a technical knockout after
! minute and 10 seconds Of the second
round.
Equipped only with a chopping right
which proved an easy set-up for the
counter-punching Shegogue, Cariste
dropped with thud when he groggily
tried to arise at the count Of six.
Referee Eddie La Fonde halted the
scrap.
Tom Birmingham. Maryland smooth
featherweight. followed Shegogues cue,
dropping a willing but too anxious
Ray Quadt after l minute and IS
seconds of the second round to capture
technical knockout victory.
Bouncing right off Quadt's chin,
which f1oored the Rutgers 125-pouIrder
for nine count, Birmingham crashed
another right to the same spot when
he arose and Quadt slumped. Referee
La Fonde Immediately awarded the
bout to Birmingham.
."THE sharp-faced Benny AIper-
stein, Old Line lightweight,
chased a retreating Bob Rabinowitz
about the ring for three rounds, fail
ing to catch the timid Scarlet repre-
sentative. but nevertheless infiicting
enough damage to gain the decision
easily.
Rabinowitz made a fight of it for
two minutes, but bloody nose dished
out by Benny's left made him re-
consider, and thereafter the bout
closely resembled track meet.
Continuing Maryland's withering
fstic firing, Ivan Nedomatsky pumped
enough left hooks and right crosses
into Joe DZuryak to level the Wash
ington Monument. but Joe remained
upright to capture the respect Of the
crowd. Ivan. however. grabbed the
decision easily.
Spectators were amazed as the
rugged Rutgers 145-pounder absorbed
every blow in the book.
Mike Lombardo captured booeo
decision from Charley BobrowsN ir
the l55-pound division, offsettine
Charley's peculiar style with a neat
body attack to gain the verdict over
the wild Rutgers fighter.
Floored for no count in the secone
round with a right to the jaw, Mike
retaliated to the midsection to wiz
in the optics of Referee LaFond.
Howatt Whips Jacques.
Glenn HOwATT. Rutgers 1865
~ FOUNDER, finally crashed through
with q victory for the Jersey jabbers
taking q decision from Baby-Facet
Lancelot Jacques In debate which
found both boys weary and might!
glad to hear the final bell.
Howatt, although his face was {
mess from right-hand smashes il
the third round, whipped enough
blows to Jacques pan to triumph.
Rutgers forfeited to Maryland II
the 175-pound class and as neitheI
had a heavyweight ready. they spill
that point.
Basket Game Is Ragged.
ATARYLAND'S basket ball team still
A'A is able to cling to a thin shreo
of hope that it will be able to qualify
for the Southern Conference tourney
but its erratic play in swamping V
M. I. was not encouraging.
Ragged in the first half, Maryland
finally hit something approaching its
stride when Johnny Mccarthy ano
Bill Guckeyson were substituted by
Coach Burton Shipley with only foul
minutes of play remaining IN the
! opening session.
Trailing 1910 at the time. the Terp.
