In the main event of the semi finals of the all-university box ing tournament, Dick Geiglein pounded out a well-deserved vic tory over Stan Daffer to earn the right to meet Tom Novak Friday night for the championship in the heavyweight division. The plucky Daffer was the aggressor through out, but could not keep away from the rangy Geiglein. , Dale Preston came on fast in the second round of bis light heavy match with Bernie Snora to win by a TKO. With the first round counting even, Preston's initial flurry of blows in the sec ond round were enough to put Snora away. Also in the lightheavy bracket, Arley Howdsen walked away with the closest decision of the evening when he outlasted Duane Ander son in a bout featured by furious action close in. Both boys were in good shape, and the winner, Howsden, shapes up to be a wor thy opponent to Preston, who is the other finalist in the 175 class. Fast Finish. Del Weigand put on one of the best finishes of the evening while losing to the more ring-wise Jim Wolford in their 155 pound bout. The first two rounds were all Wclford's, as he continually beat Wiegand to the punch in both the "in" and "out" fighting.

No Admission Charge Inform al hard hitting Metzger looked good right down to the finish, but he could not keep Cranston from pil ing up points in the close in fight ing. In the lighter weights, Bob Yambor showed the way with a quick second round K.O. over Howard Purdy, who was unable to keep up with the speedy Yam bor. The second bout of the eve ning ended in a close decision for Hugh Cook over his oppo nent Bill Bock. Both fighters sparred the first two rounds with most of the action going coming in the third round. Long-armed John Rushton edged out a close one from husky John Brower in the 135 semi finals which ended with both fighters ready to throw in the towel. For the most part, the three rounds of action between these two lightweights proved to be a free-style slugfest, with Rushton using his greater reach to good advantage. In a 135 pound bout between Don Theil and Al Heikes all of the action came in the first min ute of the first round as Theil was awarded a TKO, which ad vanced him to the finals where he will meet the winner of the previous fight, John Rushton. This should pan out to be one of the better contests of the Fri day night finals, as both men are willing mixers and pull no punches. Action will continue Friday night when the finals will be held in all of the eight weight divi DUPLICATE BRIDGE TOURNAMENT To Determine Champion Cornhusker. Bridge Team 2:00 p. m.
