BY Lee Harris. Tom Novak slugged his way to the heavyweight championship in the intramural boxing tourna ment Friday night by outpointing big Dick Goegelin. Novak started the first round with a furocious attack, but was slowed down by Goeglein toward the end- of the round as the tall boy finally found the range. ' However, the second round found Novak, a former naval boot camp champ, hammering away at his opponent with hard slaps to the head and mid-section. Midway in the second round, both boys left their feet momcntarialy with Novak ending half way out of the ring and Gceglein sprawled near by. From here on the action hit a wild, crowd-pleasing pace as the largest turnout of the tournament roared its approval of the free- for-all sluggfest The third-round found 'Goeglein countering nicely but unable to stay away from the ever-advancing Novak, who continually moved forward. The fight ended with both boxers tired from their ter rific pace and with the fans on their feet yelling for more. Classy Performance. In the opener, little Bob Yam bor put on the bestexhibition of boxing seen in the tournament as he copped honors in the 125 pound class by taking an easy decision from Ray Roth. Yambor used per fect timing as he combined good footwork with hard punching to keep Roth in hot water all the way. In the second feature of the eve ning Bob Connell smashed his way to a decisive TKO victory over his outclassed oppcient Hugh Cook. Connell wasted little time as he copped the 130 pound cham pionship disposing of Cook in one r v ' 1 Rp!acobU flllf In nrw Frank Mdi Clgartt Hold, filtirt lh amok. Cult down nicotln.

AMCRiaSOU) THE WORLD OVU minute and 50 seconds of the first rcund. The thrid event brought another TKO. This time Don Theil put John Rushton away in champion ship style in 51 seconds of the second round to take honors in the 135 pound class. Theil bat tered his opponent at will in the first round, and it was only a mat ter of time until the end. Close Bout. One of the closer fights of the evening was the battle between Hal Halderman and Bob Skochdo pole for the. 145 pound crown. Skochdopole came out on top after three rounds of bruising action which saw both fighters trading blows on even terms most of the way. The margin of victory came in the first round when the field house entrant jarred and stag gered Haldeman with a series of solid right smashes to the jaw. Haldeman rallied in the second and from then to the end, the ex change of blows was for the most part even. Jim Wolford .Omaha Golden Glove .king of 1942, showed his usual good form in walking off with the senior welterweight title His opponent, Jerald McDonald, fought hard all the way but could not match the speed of the tricky Wolford. Wolford had McDonald in trouble most of the way, but took no chances with the game loser who never stopped trying. Ron Metzger, a surprise entry subbing for Harlan Cranston, who was down with the flu, won a close decision from Fred Turner to become the new middleweight king. Metzger's explosive type of, attack proved too much for Tur ner, who found most of his punches landing on Metzger's gloves or arms. jf s I in 1 :'i i : f I'J $1750 Ar WHITE DINNER JACKET DARK TROUSERS $850 Say, these super numbers make you WANT to g? to the spring dances . . .
