Midwest Tourney
Roger, Dean Lose to
Previous Champs
EWING—Boxing fans from the
Ewing and Clearwater communi
ties migrated to Omaha during
the weekend to watch two golden
glovers from this area compete in
the midwest golden gloves tour
ney. The meet ended Saturday
night.
Competing were Roger Pofahl,
middleweight, and his brother,
Dean, welterweight. Each had
battled through the finals of the
Norfolk meet earlier this month.1
A third member of the Ewing
team, Vera Mlnarik of Brunswick,
lost in the welterweight semifi
nals at Norfolk and thus did not
earn an Omaha ticket. He lost to
the man that Roger Pofahl defeat
ed in the finals.
The Ewing team is coached by
Walt Fick of Inman, who 20 years
ago was going strong in the gold
en gloves competition. Fick won
the Norfolk tourney three years
in a row, Omaha midwest tour
ney, and competed in national
golden gloves competition in Chi
cago, 111., and Boston, Mass.
Max Pofahl, elder brother of
Roger and Dean, lost a close
split decision at Norfolk. Max,
who lives near Norfolk, was a
member of the Norfolk team.
Dean, a welterweight, took with
him to Omaha the best kayo rec
ord among the Omaha entries.
Dean stopped three straight foes
in district fighting. His title in the
Norfolk competition came on a
technical knockout in 1:45 of the
first round.
Friday night at Omaha, Dean
earned a welter decision over
Bob Mann of Gothenberg. Action
was so tense a nervous timekeeper
hammered the gong in the middle
of the final round.
Meanwhile, Larry Juergens of
Superior advanced to the finals
with a TKO over Roger Pofahl.
•Juergens was the defending mid
dleweight king. The TKO came
• in 1:45 of the second round.
In semifinals Saturday at Om
aha, Dean defeated Bob Ruff of
Sidney.
On Saturday night in the mid
west finals, Rolland Jakes, an
Omahan, knocked Dean in 1:15
of the third round. Jakes had won
the midwest title in 1948.
Tbe finishing blows were short
paralyzers that many in the
crowd failed to see, according
to the World-HerahL
During the Norfolk meet the
Fick-coached trio won seven out
of eight bouts—five by knockouts.
This is Fick’s fifth year coach
ing the Ewing glovers and the
team already has accumulated
three trophies during that period.

boys who we thought were
faster when we first looked over
our freshman squad a year ago.
But Larry has worked very hard
and improved very well. He’s go
ing to help us a lot in his sopho
more year. And he’s a fine boy
to work with. We’re sure happy
that he’s with us.”

44-46, with 1% minutes left in the
game, but in an attempt to gain
possession committed a foul and
Carl hit two freethrows. Rother
ham collected a two-pointer as
the game ended.

off during the final quarter as
they controlled the boards. Carl
was high for Ewing with 18, while

12 for Stuart.
Stuart’s reserve team defeated
Ewing’s B team, 34-27, in the op
ener.
