Several Groups
Trying toCatch
Northeast Club
20-Bout Program
At Turner's Arena
Will Open at $50,
BY Dick o'Brien

The 21st annual edition Of
the Golden Gloves tournament,
sponsored by The Star. sails into
the second round tonight at
Turner's Arena with another
program of 20 novice contests.
starting at $3.50 o'clock.
Another set Of embryo Joe
Louises and Rocky Marcianos
will start swinging for fame and
glory in a tournament which
set a high standard for action
with last Tuesdays first-round
fights.
Actually only the surface has
been scratched in this tourna-
ment. AS the men are separated
from the boys, the action will
roll into high gear and the COM
petition will be more sustained
with each succeeding round.
Tonight's crop of novices rep
resents an entire field of new
faces, but most Of the boxers
are from the same clubs which
sent those free-swinging per-
formers into action on Tuesday
nights flrSt-round show.
New Bids for Trophy.
New contenders for the out
standing novice award to be pre-
sented by former Representative
Fred A. Hartley of New Jersey
no doubt will be added to the
four already high on the list
for that honor.
The near capacity crowd which
sat in on the first show had no
quarrel when Willie Williams of
the Northeast A. c., Garvin Stur-
divant of the Quantico Marines,
Andy Blanche of the Catholic
Youth Organization and Eugene
Hughes of Southeast House
Staked their claims for the Hart
ley trophy.
Tonight these four will be
Joined by another set of deter
mined young men anxious to
crowd their way into the spot
light.
The Northeast Athletic Club,
which got away to a running
start by winning four bouts on
the opening program, tonight
attempts to add four more tri-
umphs. The Northeasterners
will move in with f1yweight Lea
mon Smith. bantamweight Alvin
Uzelle, welterweight Ernest Biggs
and light-heavyweight Frank
Davis.
Incidentally, Davis will have
the honor of starting the pro-
gram for the bigger men tonight
when he encounters Jimmy
Simms of the Northwest AC in
the 175-pound class.
Little Creek, also off to a good
start, will show its featherweight,
A. j. Barto, and it's lightweight.
John Martin on tonight's pro-
gram.
CYO Prominent Tonight.
Several clubs promise to give
Northeast and Little Creek stiff
competition. The Boys Club.
Catholic Youth Organization and
the Quantico Marines have yet
to bring up their heavy artillery.
The CYO is prominent to-
night with such good boys going
as Dick Perry in the welter-
weight class and John Crawford
and Redmon Chambers in mid-
dleweight division.
This also will be a big night
for the Merrick Club team, which
will start Max Saunders, 126
pounds; Herber+ Boyd. 126
pounds; William Better, lat
pounds, and Don Purcell, 100
pounds. Glen Drake. the Mer-
rick coach, is mighty proud of
this contingent and expects to
raise havoc In the tournament
with them.
The regular procedure will be
followed on the time schedule.
Flyweights, bantamweights and
featherweights have been asked
to report to the dressing room
not later than tbs, with other
contestants reporting at later
