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.
Ewing’s four winners—Kline,
Lawler, Dean and Max Pofahl—
will be members of the Norfolk
golden gloves team entered m
the midwest GG tourney to
held in Omaha.
