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

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.
