Leave to l ight
In CG Tourney
Two Aggies—James Earle
and Ed Castillo—left today to
complete in the state Cotden
(iloves tournament at Fort
Worth.
The tournament begins tonight
and will be completed Monday
night.
Earle won the open 135 pound
title at the Waco regional tourney
last week, and Castillo replaces
Aggie Paul Terrill as the region’s
open light-heavyweight contender.
Victorious in 3 out of 32 fights,
Earle was named the Waco tourna
ment’s outstanding boxer in the
open class. He scoi'ed two first
round TKO’s in the meet and lias
a I'ecord of 17 KO’s or TKO’s in
his cai'eer. Both of Earle’s losses
have been spit decisions.
A pole vaulter on the track team,
Earle also draws the Cadet Slouch
cartoons for The Battalion.
Castille lost a decision to Ter
rill in the light-heavyweight finals
at Waco but “had obviously coast
ed in order to make Ten-ill look
good,” said the Waco News-Tri
bune.
The paper repoi’ted that Terrill
protested the decision vigorously,
saying that Castillo had “held off”
during the entire bout. .
