Weller, II, Sensation
In Eastern Gloves;
I'D. {. Men Advance
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 4.-Seven-
Iteen-year-old Ernest Anthony, a
l47-pounder from New York. is
the early sensation of the Eastern
Golden Gloves boxing tournament.
He easily was the class of the
I66 battlers who showed their wares
in yesterdays and last nights
opening bouts. He's a sharp,
lightning fast puncher who
stopped William Randall of Miami
in 1:41 of the first round. His
showing left seasoned ringsiders
comparing him to such other
famous fighters as Joe Louis, Bar
Iney Ross and Rocky Marciano
when they were in the Golden
Gloves.
All the favorites came through
in the opening battles. including
Heavyweight Norval Lee of Wash
ington who scored a disputed de-
Icision over Alexander Brown of
New York. 1t generally is agreed
that Brown figured as Lees tough
est opposition and only the luck
of the draw brought them together
lin the first round.
Another winning Washington
fighter was Bantamweight Eddie
GilchriSt, who beat Alfred For of
Fort Drum. Middleweight Flem-
ing Butler lost to Foneda Cox,
another Fort Drum fighter. Five
other Washington boxers drew
first byes.
Pairings for Washington Golden
Glovers in tonight's quarterfinals
are:
Flyweight Billy Hill against Vernon
McCaslin of Miami. Bantamweight Gill
christ against Leroy Grant of Newark,
Fee therweight Bobby Leeper against Car
melo Costa of New York. Lightweight
David Zimmerman against Larry Crawley
of Newark, Welterweight Tommy Williams
fagainstRudy Gwin of jacksonville, Fla;
Light Heavyweight Eldridge Thompson
against Walter Rushmore Of Long Island
and Heavyweight Lee against Mike Tunney
