Peiro Fearful Virgin
Will Be Rough Rival

To most local fight fans. Pete
Virgin, a colorful New York club
fighter, resembles Jimmy Cagney,
the movie actor, but to Danny Petro
he looks like a billygoat.
Petro, who is no angel himself
when it comes to unorthodox ring
tactics, tangles with Pete the Pure
in a featured 10-round brawl at
Uline Arena Monday night, and said
today that he is willing to fight
fairly If Virgin is willing. but other
wise he is going to protect him
self"
The local southpaw featherweight
was on hand for several of Virgins
bouts here, and claims that Petey
uses his head in the clinches, not
in an intellectual way, but in goat
fashion.
Coming from Petro, the statement
has authority, as Danny has been
the center of several fareups here,
and was suspended by the Boxing
Commission last summer for con-
duct in the ring that was a trifle
ungentlemanly.
Since then, Petro has campaigned
out OF town, and set a New England
knockdown record when he floored
an opponent II times in one fight.

At Eastern, Montgomery Blair will
be an underdog to Eastern and st.
Johns the choice over Bethesda
Chevy Chase. At Tech, George
Washington is expected to bow to
Tech and Mount Rainier to Con-
Zaga.
The favorites are taxing nothing
for granted, particula " Tech, the
District public high champion, and
Eastern, its runner-up. In Blair
Eastern will meet an inconsistent
team which blazes at times, and the
Montgomery County lads are any,
thing but awed by the Ramblers'
high estate.
Tech has cause to worry. In a
January battle with George Wash

by only points and the Presidents
were going great guns at the finish:

opening of the tournament. At
Maryland's Richie Coliseum this
afternoon at $3.50 Greenbelt was to
meet Westinghouse in a game
originally scheduled for tomorrow
night along with three others at
the Coliseum. The change was made
to avoid conflict with the "All

Friday evenings girl games will
be Blair VS.. Mount Rainier at 6,
Sherwood VS.. Maryland Park at 7
and Fairfax VS.. Bethesda at 8. The
semifinals will be played Saturday
night at the Coliseum, starting at

to the boys championship game
Monday at Tech.
Tickets are on sale at all of
Washington's senior public high
schools and at all of the participant
ing schools. Purchasers are asked to
ignore the dates printed on the
tickets due to the arrangement
whereby the boys semifinals were
shifted from Tech to Uline Arena.
