swer opening bells tonight on a
thrill-packed annual Fite Nite pro
gram. Seventeen upperclassman
champions will be crowned, nine in
boxing and eight in wrestling.
The feature bouts will be th§
147 pound boxing match and the
147 and 167 pound wrestling
scraps. All six finalists on these
are defending champions.
Jimmy Earle, Sq. 8, and Pete
Ramirez, Sq. 10, tangle in the 147
pound boxing match. Earle is de
fending upperclassman 137 pound
king, while Ramirez copped the
fish 137 pound crown in 1952.
Both boys are hard hitters and
like to mix it, making for a crowd
pleasing bout.
WRESTLING
Raul Loustaunau, Bizzell, and
Conrad Webb, A Ord., take the
mat in the 167 pound wrestling
spot. Webb is the 157 pound up
perclassman title-holder and was
fish runner-up in ‘51. Loustaunau
was the fish champ last year.
Two-time champ Rudy Henson,
Sq. 5, battles Jerry Pyle, Sq. 7,
the 1952 fish champ, in the 147
pound match. This bout also should
provide plenty of thrills.
Other defending boxing finalists
are Guillermo Cardenas, Bizzell,
who defends his 157 pound crown
against Bill Brown, A Oi’d., and
Phil Randol, A Inf., 177 pound
finalist, who defends against
O’Neal, Sq. 6.
Clarence Gay, Sq. 14, and giant
Delbert Davis, Co. C, will defend
their wrestling titles. Gay ‘52
