COLLEGE PARK. Md.-Virginia
Techs fine boxing squad proved too
much for Maryland's Terrapin ring
men in the lighter weights and took
a close 4ia-to-312 victory to remain
undefeated in Southern Conference
competition.
1t was the Gobblers' fourth con-
ference triumph and will send them
into the title tourney at Columbia,
S. c., next Friday as favorites.
Maryland's basket ball team pre-
viously had brought a losing streak
of 81 games to an end with 26-
tolls victory over Washington Col
lege, one of its oldest State foes.
1t was a game finale to drab cam
paign but a brilliant feat in view
of the circumstances.
Only about $500, the smallest
double bill crowd of the winter, saw
the show.
Gobblers Take First.
Andy Glass, V. P. I. southpaw, de-
cisioned Maryland's Judson Lincoln
in the first bout. Lincoln failed to
solve Glass Southpaw style and lost
the fight when the V. P. l. scrapper
hit him repeatedly with a long
overland left Glass knocked the
game Marylander to the canvass in
the first minute of the final round.
Wally Alexson, in the 127 pound
class. won close fight over the
Terps' chunky Charley Dorr. Alex
son drew blood in the first round
with a hard right to the nose and
hit the Maryland scrapper with
several hard lefts in the final round.
Two hard rights by Dorr in the
third round staggered the Gobbler
but he survived.
Maryland Takes One.
MARYLAND broke the ice in the
135-pound class when Southpaw Bill
Holbrook outpunched Howard Gra-
vinger. The match featured a hard
left by Holbrook against a hard
right by the Gobbler. The Terp
hit his foe an average of two blows
to one.
Lanky Pat Quinn, Terp sopho-
more, moved up weight to tackle
undefeated Bobby Andrews, and the
extra weight and experience OF the
Gobbler fighter proved the margin.
Bobby hit the Marylander with left
labs and hard rights throughout
the match.
Hotsy Alperstein of Maryland
spotted Garrett Taylor 10 pounds
in the 155-pound encounter and
fought the Gobbler to a draw.
Taylor, rough and ready fighter,
smacked Alperstein with numerous
hard rights, several flush to the
face, but a hard left and some fine
defensive boxing proved enough to
give the Terp an even break.
Visitors Clinch Match.
V.P. I. was assured of the match
when Kent Belmore decisioned John
Cordyack in the 165-pound class.
The first round was even, but a
right uppercut foored Cordyack in
the second for nine count. Cord
yack came gamely in the third and
staggered the Gobbler with left
and a right to the chin, but the vet
eran Belmore took the blows and
finished strong.
North Carolina forfeited in the
175-pound class, bringing no man in
that weight.
In the final bout, Maryland's Len
Rodman made short work of the
cadets Julian Sedgwick with a ter
rife overland right that knocked
