Washington Herald Golden Gloves
Semifinal at Turner's Arena but
the fighters we're flying through
the ropes and scraping themselves
off the canvas in nearly every
bout as the boys went at it ham
mer and tong to win themselves
a trip to Boston for the All-America
tournament next month.
Out of the welter and heat Of
the some 18 bouts came a rip
snorting final for next Wednesday
in the welterweight class with
clever El Brookman squaring off
against Bobby Matthias, National
Guard slugger. Matthias belted
Glenn Drake, Of Terminal Y, to
sleep in the second round.
SKILL NO USE
brakes boxing skill availed him
little as Matthias reached his chin
with crushing rights, dropping
him twice in the first and for the
busieeSs in the second.
Smothering Gene "Spud" Muir
ply, Quantico, under an avalanche
of gloves in the first two rounds,
Brookman coasted home through
the third.
A cash on the forehead gave
Whitley France, 1876 pounds, a
technical kayo over Marion Pull
zone, of Alexandria, while Bobby
Schwartz, ITS pounds, put Nor
man Pemberton, of Merrick, down
for the count in the second. But
Schwartz heard the brides warble
plenty himself in a near double
knockout.
GETS UP QUICKLY
Bobby peeled himself off the
canvas before a count as both
connected on the button Simul
taneously in the first round and
went down. Pemberton took a
nine.
The Hoyas' heavyweight sensa-
ton, Jim Brady, added Harold
WeiSberg, of the National Guard,
to his list of victims with a cruel
left jab. The referee stopped the
bout in the second round to save
WeiSberg.
Throwing nothing but knockout
wallops, Jimmy Perrow, of the
National Guard, made Creighton
Allen step fast and furiouSly to
win the decision in three cracking
rounds in the 160-pound class.
