ty boxer who is mighty hard to bit

mighty hard battle;- to fathom. and
as Paul is hot 3 particulary flasher
boxer it appears as it he Will have
a hard time‘ getting Larry's ~vital

'l‘hen again Estridgc does not fall
apart like a pack of cards when

individual with thin arms and spin-'

carried him through several of the
toughest battles in the great wax.
so it hardly seems possible that. he

L‘stridgc [is not particularly hard

ry has reclined on the canvas curly
in the argument only to rise to his

few rounds later. It takes a real
crunht-r right on the button to keep
Estridgu down. so it does appear
that llericnbach has his work cut

Which did no good in the final re-
built as Mt. Vernon traveled as fast
as in the first two periods. A large
crowd turned out to witness the
game which developed much excite-
ment due to the close guarding and
rough play.
So close was the feud between the
two centers, Captain Halo and Her,—
man. that In the last period the pair
came to blows and had it hot. and
heavy for a while. Things were
agnoothed over and the play resum-

The preliminary game, between
the two Second teams, necdhsitated
a five minute overtime period to de-
cide the winner. 'Mclntyre shot, a
\long basket trom the middle or the
floor tying the score at 16 all. just
before the final whistle blew.
In the extra. time Handel missed
a. free toss. Carrido and Fineberg
boosted in a. field goal apiece. Bir-
' mlngham's free try. on which he
made good, ended the close contest.
