Fifteen matches were held in the semi final round Monday, December 9, and one more bout must be held between Andy Marinkovich and George Albin to decide who win face Ray Staroska in trie ioo pound finals. .lark Barrett, former all city champ for three years, was forced to withdraw from the tournament due to injuries suffered in an au tomobile accident. The finals will be held December 17, during; the half time of the varsity basket ball game. Keith Manning pinned Francis Mandula in a rough brawl and earned the dubious privilege of facing Mike DiBiase in the heavy weight finals. Ken Brown con tinued his drive for the 121 pound title by upsetting Howard Crom 4-3. Overtime Bout. Bob Poe ran into a package of dynamite when he tangled with Ralnh Waerner. but managed to salvage a 1-0 decision in an over time. Sam Kais turned on tne KtMm and trimmed Hal Haldeman to the tune of 6-0 and looks like a good bet in the 145-pound di vision. ' The 165-pound class continued to steal the show as Marshall Boker and Chick Thome pinned their oDDonents with identical holds to advance into the finals. Boker threw Fred Turner in 1:59 and Thome outlasted crafty Charles Roberts to win in 5:50. Both men have won all their matches by falls and when they clash in the finals anything could happen.
