Americas Olympic cham
pions, Carol HeisS and David

day in expressing shock and
grief over the death of leading
United States figure skaters in
the Brussels plane crash.
Its a great tragedy-both
to their families and to ice
skating" said Miss HeiSs, who
abandoned competition for the
role Of housewife and a posi-
BILE film career. "All our top
figure skaters were aboard. I
had competed against all Of
them. This would about do it
for our figure skating for some
time"
Jenkins, who talked to many
Of the skaters by telephone
from Boston shortly before
their departure from New York,
said: This really hit me hard.

The Manchester United Soc
Ger Club of England, which lost

was among the first to express
sympathy.

Gustav Lussi. trainer Of Dick

finally got into a World Series
the following year, making one
relief appearance against the
Tigers.
He was elected to the Hall oi

In Big Bouts on

Sherman (Tank) Mitchell, q
muscular dynamo with damag-.

Hunter Ragland, a clever boxer
with the recuperative powers
Of a rubber band. are set to mix
it. up in one of the top bouts
Of the semifinal round Of The
Stars Golden Gloves tourna+
ment tomorrow night at Uline
Arena. Twenty-one bouts are
on the program.
Mitchell, former Dunbar High
football player, is defending
lightweight champion and q
strong choice to destroy the
ambitions of Ragland, a COM
parative unknown from the
Twelfth Street YMCA.
But Ragland has his follow
ers. They are quick to point
out that it will take one who
can box with artistry and can
take a jolting to stop Mitchell,
pride of Police Club No. 2.
Ragland proved he has these
qualities in the quarter finals.
He rose from a first-round
knockdown to defeat the Police
Clubs George Williams. Will,
liams attacked relentlessly, but
Ragland was able to absorb the
fury without losing his head,
literally and figuratively.
Wolfe Fights Burrell
Another top lightweight bout
is on the program. This one
pits Ralph Wolfe, recognized as
Mitchell's top challenger for
the title, against Columbus
Burrell. Burrell picked up
hackers by stopping the veter-,
an Gene Hughes in a prelimin-
ary bout.
One Of the 81 bouts carrying
a big question mark Is the well
terweight fight between De-
Tending Champion Leroy Rob-
.erts from the Police Club and
Joe Cheseldine of Hillcrest
Heights.
These two boys are about
as evenly matched as you can
get them, While most fans by
now have figured out the styles
of PRACTICALLY all of the con-
testantS and have selected their
probable winners, not so in the
case of Roberts and Cheseldine
Each has had four years Of

Cheseldine came up to the

championship in 1858 and went
on to win q number Of ring
honors in the Marines. r
Roberts. too, came up four
years ago in the subnovice
ranks and degeloped into a
