Les Weber interviews Ewing’s boxing coach, Walter Fick (right) , who exhibits the golden gloves team trophy awarded at the close of the Norfolk mitt tourney. Fick was near the top in the na tion’s golden glove circles a score of years ago. (The W’eber-Fick interview was heard on the Sat udday "Voice of The Frontier’’ program, W’JAG. 780 kc.—The Frontier Fhoto. Indian on Ewing Team Gets 3d KO Don Kline Tops in Feather Bracket EWING — Dick Kline, 127 pound Indian member of the Ewing golden glove team, ex hibited a lethal knockout punch Wednesday night, January 30, in the Norfolk golden gloves tourney He won his third straight first round knockout in the finals by blasting Bernard Milton, Wayne college team member, into sub mission in 1:05 for the feather weight crown. Max Pofahl, another Ewing team member, regained the light heavyweight title he held in 1955.' Pofahl. 175, decisioned El don Heller, 175, Pierce. Larry Wanser of Ewing was , named the most promising boxer of the meet. Jim Hansen, 117, Ewing, lost ja decision to Larry Haase, 117, Wayne, in the bantamweight finals. John Lawler, 136, Ewing, scor ed a technical knockout over : Don Carstens, 136, Pierce, in the second round of the liyhtweight semifinals, and then decisioned Larry Ayres, 134, West Point, | in the finals. Dean Pofahl, 147, Ewing, ■knocked out David Heefs, 147, Pierce, in 1:05 of the first round in the welterweight semi finals, and then decisioned Keith Steffan, 146, Ewing in the finals. Middleweight honors of the Norfolk tourney went to Don Kindsohuh, 159, West Point. A West Point boxer, Jim Ste wart, 180, decisioned Orville Reeves, 201, Ewing, in the heavy weight finals. Walt Kick, Inman farmer and former midwest and AAU ; champion, has been coaching the Ewing American Legion- j sponsored boxing teams dur ing six of the past seven years The Legion, with the fighting I’ofahls as mainstays, has won team honors five times. Ewing won the team trophy in the 1957 Norfolk meet with 38 points. West Point finished second with 26, Wayne 15, and Pierce 10. Fick regards the '57 team as j his best since he has tutored at Ewing. Trophies are on display at the American Legion club. The Ewing team included 10 boxers—seven of whom reached the finals. In the welterweight finals, it was a Ewing team mem" her, Max Pofahl, going against --- i teammate, Eldon Heller. “This brings about mixed emotions,” explained Coach Fick. ‘Max and Dean Pofahl are about it the end of their eligibility, jut there’s a younger one biting it the bit, and we’ll use him lext year.” Fick has a philosophy of his own about boxing: “Desire, willingness and the physical requirements make the ?ood boxer,” he explains- “A ^ood boxer has to have the dc ;ire to do something for himself. \s a nation we seem to be drift* :ng away from that sort of thing. "Boxing is one or those fields where a man is strictly on his awn.” F'.ving boxers commence training in November, but Coach Fick would prefer to have them train the year around. Boxing practice is con ducted once a week. Hansen, bantam semifinalist, was a beginner this year. Wan ser, according to Fick, handles .limself very well and has the "willingness and desire” which Fick stresses. Fick began boxing in the first year of golden gloves at Nor folk—1936. He won midwest \ Omaha 1 golden gloves honors and was a semifinalist in Chi cago, 111. He also was a rank ing boxer in the AAU tourna ment in Boston. Mass Dean Pofahl induced Lawler, Reeves and Kline, Norfolk Jun ior college students, to join with the Ewing team.
