With a large number of the boots <fOn off Friday, the opponents were ao evenly matched that not all of the fans agreed with the decision handed down by the judges which, In a great number of caaes, wen split decisions. Boxera Have It Rough Roth of the boxer* to roaeh the final round In the 119-pound div ision had u hard time. Ed Flnelaa of ASA won over taller opponent Billy Holcomb of A Quartermaster with his continuous strong coun ter punching, although ho was fighting from the defense more than from the offense. Finclas will meet Royce Brimberry of 1 Flight who barely edged Sonny Crowley of B Field in the other semi-final round. The first round of the Crowley- Brimberry fight was a draw with both fighters throwing their usual, punches. Crowley definitely held Brimberry at bay during the sec ond round with his roundhouse punches which with his footwork kept his opponent on the retreat. In the climax of the final round Brimberry’s aggressiveness seem ed to pay off, although he too was much surprised at the outcome, as he took the final minute decision and the split decision as winner. Cattis Faosrtto' D. S. Curtis of E Air Force definitely established himself as the man to beat for the 129-pound crown with the manner which he used in disposing of G. Pratt of D. Vet. Pratt never seemed to know what was going on froth-the start ing ding to the final dong. Curtis will enter the ring tonight against Dwight Kemper of A Ordnance who’s height and reach helped him to a three round decision over S. W. Thompson of the White Band. Johnson Wins Skippy Johnson of ASA, who could give anybody in his weight a good fight, ran into a lot of un expected trouble when he met Lambert of A Composite, last Fri day. If Lambert had started the fight and worked his punches as he did in the final round where ho completely whipped Johnson, the outcome of the bout might have been a different story, but Johnson’s hustling and fast punch ing in the first two rounds ad vanced him to the.fihals. Johnson’s opponent tonight will be Kidd of White Band who read- over Davenport of 'K in the semi-finals. Only one bout waa fought in the 149-pound elan and tt was won by 'Pom Royder of C Field Artil lery Who had quite a time trying to reach his opponent who tower ed 10 inches over him. ^RoydeFs systematic style of boxing that worked ager night will be Bemie Par-key of A Ordnance Who won a forfeit bout over Bill “Knockout” Glover of B Field who waa forced to de fault because of a sprained thumb which he hod acquired in h^e lost Perhaps the top Curly aurpriae of the Marthall’* win over Bob Schubert of A QMC. Marshall of C Cavalry gave Schu bert a tough time in the first round which together with the sec ond round were draws, Tho deter mining factor for tho final de rision waa Marshall's aggressive- ness In tbs’ last minute. Marshall will meat Kan Timmons of A Infantry for tho champion ship of tho 169-pound class to night. Timmons won over Bo Do* muth of B Infantry by default.
