A third entry in the bantam- weight class is Jerry Godkin, \from Juneau, who may see action at the fights. In the event God- kin receives the necessary permis- sion from his parents, a three- round draw will be held between Richardson, Long and Godkin, with the long-straw men fighting in the trials and the third man taking a bye. Skipping from the bantams to the ‘heavies, the second fight will| pair Bob Tiiomas of the Wachu- sett at 200 pounds, and Donald Watson ,0f Juneau Spruce at 218. From training indications, Watson should pin his hopes on the ar- tistry of a southpaw, with Thomas maintaining a two-fisted attack. This will be a novice match The third bout, a featherweight contest, will feature Charlie Pled- Jer from the Wachusett and Ken,| Hildreth of Juneau High School. Both boys should tip the beam at| about 132 pounds, with Hildreth Jghting a two-year age advan- tage, and Pledjer trying to over- come his opponents two-inch height and reach margin.

Back in the weights where fight- rs throw everything but the sec- unds’ buckets when they swing, the fourth fight will pit Rocky wunter of Juneau and George Rob- cins from the Wachusetts in the 165-pound bracket Although in une noviee class, having no pre- ious bouts, both men have learn- d the meaning of a boxing glove on wnument entry. the Approach- fighting end as close as ssibie without entering the win lcss cclumn, Hunter is sced in the routine of a spar- ariner.

Those entering the ring for the sixth bout will also be decided by it drawing on the parts of Bill Novak and Alfred Wallis, both from the Wachusett, and Danny Kunz of Juneau. This bout will be a novice contest in the light- heavy bracket, with weights bal- ancing around the 170 mark. The next bout, also in the light- heavy division, will have as its star performers two boys who might well be scouted as basketball pros- pects for the national champion Wayne Atter of Juneau goes in at six-feet three-inches and faces Bob Rowland of the Wachu- k to the courtesy |sett who is just one slight half- If any fight of the a definite boxer against an equally confirmed slug- ger, this should be the one. Row- land, almost completely disregard- ing every doctrine entertained by the scientific text of boxing, opens with both gloves flying at the first gong and is usually going at only slightly reduced pace at each round’s end. On the other hand, Atter levels his heavy guns only when openings are at hand and boxes all the way. Seconds will next call Jimmy Vuille of Juneau and Lowell Wells of the Wachusett to arms. This fight will be in the middle bracket with both boys being of an ag- gressive nature, believing that something, even if immovable, must give ground if faced with an ir- resistable force.

And with the end of this fight the announcer should be hoarse and the time- keeper thoroughly disgusted with the sound of bells. | Tickets are on sale at the fol- | lowing locations: The Baranof Ho- | tel News Stand, Race’s Drug Store, | Darnell's Sports Center, Town Hall Recreation Center, the Im- | perial Cafe, the Triangle Bar, | Bailey’s Bar, Bailey's Sports Cen- ter, the New York Tavern, the Pamaray Club, Smiley’s Pool Hall, the Moose Club, the Elks Club, and the Clover Club. - D e ROUNDUP OF SPORT NEWS By HUGH FULLERTON, Jr. NEW YORK, April 7.—#— The other ds veteran golf pro, who likes to sit around with the boys after hours, was saying that we could have his share of the Mast- ers’ Tournament The gene idea was that the tourney I been given a tremendous build- up but the members won't co-oper- {ate by giving the players a chakce to have some fun, too.
