Sill, Oklahoma, when seven Aggie-exes in the 'her and tjhrew a huge barbeque enrolled in HOTC training at 1 the Artillery School. Held it Craterville Park, a re sort 15 (miles from Ft. Sill, the barbeque was attended by every Aggie inj Camp—much to the chag-. ipn it isi reported of the asorted bklahomja, Colorado A&M, Ark ansas, and St. Mary’s cadetsi, whose dx-studejits apparently had no such school spirit. j j As a-ftiafter of fact, Col. Will iam Becker, class of ’41 who also attended] the affair was quoted as ikying tjrttt the jealousy of the cadets from the other schools was So noticeable that he anticipated ((rouble in upholding the esprit d ( ’ Corps of : his unit.

SiU. Ag gies were involved in eight , of the nine fights on the card, winning five of them. Aftw a first round flurry, Ar thur rrixeil, ’49 outpointed Lee Dugg^i', 126, also of A&M to win by a decision. Murray Cox, 135 of A&M dropped an. eye lash decision to Orville Wise, 135 of Oklahoma University. An exhibition between 1/Sgt. George Scott of St. Mary’# and M/Sgt. James Norman of A&M showed polish and style to the crowd. Norman cuffed Scott soundly to take a unanimous decisiop. Lonnie Cole, 173 of A&M beat Jack Chin, 170, St. Mary’s, oy a decision in a bout marked by fre quent flurries of solid punches. The crowd suffered a severe dis appointment when what locked to be the top fight of the evening be tween Dick Mitchell, 155 of OU and Don Decker, 155 of A&M, was credited to Mitchell on TKG in the first round after a right cross closed one of Decker’s eyes. Dick Fite, 160, OU had James Desmuke, A&M reeling but still upright as the third round ended and won by a decision. [ • Harold Zeitman, A&M, took a close exhibtion bout from Rich ard Colianni, 165, of the 17 FA Bn. in which Colianni went down _ for an eight-count inethc third: round. j‘ < In the final event, heavyweight Bob Holmes, 200, clashed with Sammy Bishop, 198 of the 1st Obsn.
