Nursery Fugitives Earn Titles
In 1orrid Navy Junior Bouts
Scropping Is So Keen, 3-Yeor-OId Jumps
Into Ring to Aid His Older Brother

during the winter, and with that In
mind he charged and slugged his
way to the paperweight title.
Little Brother Lends Hand.
In the 52-pound class John Nelson
was pounding away on the frame
work of Emery Evans, son of 1t.
Comdr. E F.. Evans, medical officer,
when Emery's little 3 year old
brother Earl just couldn't stand the
punishment being administered to
his big brother and stepped into the
ring to help. This act drew a big
laugh from the spectators as we'll as
giving the cameraman a good shot.
Bob Kavanaugh defended his title
for the fourth straight year and
came out on top with an unanimous
decision over Robert Hall in the 81
pound class. The little redheaded
battler packed a mean Wallop and
staggered his opponent quite few
times.
Most of the lads slugged it out
toe to toe, especially in the 64 pound
class in which Bobby Rawlings re-
ceived the decision over Mike Chap
pie. Mike, whose dad was the
former Navy heavyweight champion
in 1928. 20 and 80. just couldn't
get started, although in the last
few seconds of the second round he
began to hit the range.
Fulton Splits With Keiths.
Lester Fulton, who lost decision
to Lang Keith in the early bouts,
took his spite out on Lang's brother,
Taylor, in the final bout of the
morning, which was an added at
traction.
This bout, in which charge stop
and-swing tactics were used by Full
ton, ended in a draw after the regu-
lar two rounds. Then. in an extra
round the judges awarded the de-
cision to Fulton.

Washington's baseball games, both

Russ Hodges. staff sports COM
mentator at VOL, and Arch Nc
Donald, who has been handling the

nected with WTOP, but Dolph said
yesterday, 1--WE will make him an
offer and hope to have him do the
games with Hodges"
Terms of the contract signed by
Dclph and Griffith yesterday were
not disclosed.
Griffith is believed to have been
influenced in letting the broadcast
rights 60 at a smaller figure than
usual, rather. than not have the
games aired at all, by the large
number of requests from service
men in hospitals and stationed at
posts and camps in the WASHINGTON
area.

Georgetown Tackles
Tough Foe in Owl
Nine Tomorrow
c. U. Faces Strenuous
Time Before Tukinq
Spring Vocation

Georgetown University's baseball
team has tough opponent coming
up tomorrow afternoon when it faces
Temples Owls on the Hoya diamond
at $3.50. The Owls so far have busted
of Delaware and Lehigh.
Stars of the visiting nine are Jack
Fletcher, shortstop, who is considered
big league timber and Joe Papiano
fast-ball pitcher and also star half
back on last years football team.
Coach Joe Gardner of the Hilltop
team has made few changes in his
lineup. Ralph Linneman is listed
to start at third instead of Jack
McTamney, and Bill Feeney, now
being through with basket ball, goes
at center field. Dan Gabbianelli, an
other basket ball player who starred
on last years good baseball team,
will not play this season, however
having informed Gardner that his
study schedule is too heavy.
In their first two games, in which
they lost to Fort Belvoir and won
from Catholic u, the Hoyas were
Jagged as a mostly inexperienced
crew. Gardner figures they have
steadied now, with the calm play of
Catcher Tom Costello, Infelder John
Kulikowsk and Pitcher Joe Wells
holding the team together.
Spring vacation begins at Catholic
U. later this week, but before that
the Cardinals will face hefty sports
program. Fort Belvoir's baseball
team plays at c. U. tomorrow at

Gallaudet, American Loyola, Bridge
