ing back. Fardella was the more
accurate puncher.
Baird, who stopped the winning
streak of Syracuse's Loren Schoff in
the preliminary round, gave Mary
land its third straight defeat in the
145-pound final Baird had entirely
too much class for Alperstein in a
battle that was decided mostly at
close quarters.
In the final round, Baird backed
the Maryland boy against the ropes
and banged him with a Furnishing
series of rights and lefts
Ortenzi, Western Maryland 165-
FOUNDER, had little difficulty out
pointing Gilmore. Taking hard
left repeatedly on his jaw in the
last two rounds, Gilmore lasted to
the finish mainly by rushing In and
tackling his opponent around the
waist.
In the third, Gilmore rushed in
and took a terrific right to the head
as they separated.
Gunther's Blows Checked.
light-heayyweight, got the nod over
Gunther in an uninspiring bout to
complete the rout of the Old Liners.
In slow start, Rathbun looked bad
through the first round, but he man
aged to get his elbows in the way
every time Gunther tried to get a
right hook home.
Early in the third. Rathbun got
home a good right to the face, and
after standing off a couple Of charges
he connected again. He got bloody
nose in return, but he smacked home
a convincing right hook and two
straight lefts.

''- Cicala Starts Big Parade.
Cicala, Marylands much improved
bantamweight, started the big pa
rade of Old Liners into the cham
pionship round by pounding out
clean-cut verdict over Jack Alex
ander of Western Maryland in the
semi-fnals, thereby squaring ac-
counts with that worthy for a loss
sustained earlier in the season in
a dual meet.
Cicala's sharpshooting tactics car
ried the afternoon. He stung Alex
ander in the second with a couple
of rapid fire left hooks and had him
reeling in the third with we'll
timed one-two.
Lincoln. stocky l27-pounder.
opened up on Bill Feerst with a
slambang windmill attack at the
outset of their scufle and simply
wore down the Coast Guard repre-
sentative. Feerst brought the Terp
up short in the second with a pun
ishing right to the body followed by
another to the head. but Lincoln
shook 'em off and kept boring IN.
Jones Halted by Barnett.
The Old Liners grand march was
! interrupted, temporarily, by South
paw Tommy Jones setback in the
! l35-pound bracket, but Welterwelght
Hotsy Alperstein put his mates back
in the winning groove IN the sue
| ceeding class Jones, who got the
nod over Virginia's Willie Barnett
in a dual meet this year, was the
more aggressive of the two this
afternoon but Barnett punched
harder and landed more telling
blows.
Alpersteins victory was a repeti.
ton of the decision he chalked up
over Rufus Drury of the Coast
Guard earlier in the year. Neither
was willing to lead in the first two
rounds but the Marylander shot
brisk left to the chin and followed
I'D with another to the head that
stunned Drury and clinched the
fight.
The Terrapins' aggressive and
somewhat reckless modus operandl
enabled Jack Gilmore to whip
Army's Orvol Allen in their 165-
pound joust. They stood toe to toe
and traded punches in both the
second and third rounds. but Gil
more landed a bone crushing right
near the close of the third that
almost floored the cadet and def
nitely decided the honors.
Gunther Scores Quickly.
Gunther made short shrift OF Jack
McArdle of Syracuse in their l75-
pound duel, scoring a technical
knockout in $50 of the first round.
Gunther hit his outclassed opponent
at will until the referee stepped be-
tween the two.
Jensen. who decisioned Gunther
in a nght-heavyweight match last
month, scored a decisive victory over
Len Rodman to gain the final. A
light right sent the Terror 10 the
floor in the third but he was up
without a count and continued TO
hammer Rodman until the flnaI
bell.
