Washington's biggest collegiate
boxing night of the season will
materialize on two fronts Saturday
night when Catholic University's
undefeated team collides with Co.
lumbus in a strictly local match
at Brookland gym and Maryland
revives a time-honored feud with
Virginia at College Park.
Fresh from its gratifying 4la-3R
victory over Maryland, Catholics

who were ineligible to compete
against Maryland. The Cards will

Cohen's return to meet Catho-

is regarded highly as prospect.
Maryland is facing foe which
may be more formidable than Cath

of Virginia Tech and North Caro-
lima by wide margins. The decisive
ness Of its 61z-11A victory over the
Tarheels Saturday night was dis
tinct surprise to most followers of

The Terps, while naturally de-
jected over their loss to the Cards,
feel to man they deserved a better
fate and will attempt to atone in
some measure for that licking by
humping the favored Cavaliers.
