Those Beltin' Bengal Boxers meet tonight in what promises to be "Ye Bloody Battle of the Century." With the prelims turning to be one slam bang, on-thefloor-off-again, bring-em- in-and-drag-em-out affair, there should be enough excitement tonight to stimulate the most blase into undig­ nified shoutings and carryings on. Because the bigger fellows pack the heavier punches, the interest in them runs highei-. From the 147 pound class to the heavyweight di%'i- sion there is a very select gi-oup of deadly punchers. Taking them in order of v/eights, at 147 pounds there is Jerry Gil­ lespie. He is a tall, slender boy who boxes straight up and throws an ef­ fective left jab, his chief offensive weapon. That he scored a technical k.o. mainly with this weapon in one of his preliminary bouts, is proof enough of its utility in the ring. Lou Purcell, his opponent and defending champion at this weight, is probably one of the cleverest boxers in the show. He has plenty of class and hits well with either hand; punching with lightning speed which should make up for the advantage which Gil­ lespie will have on him in height and LEFT—Harry Marr. reach.

McKernan, the defending champion, should be well knovvn to all. An excellent boxer and powerful hitter, he will have a big edge on Borzilleri in experience, but 'Sam's aggressiveness will offset this somewhat and McKernan will have to be ever on the alert for one of Borzilleri's wild, long haymakers which he throws so often and which is lable to connect at any time. This haymaker will have to be Borzilleri's chief threat and like as not he may land it, then— What looks to be the best bout of the evening comes up in the 17.5 pound class. Walt Marshall is the only man to defeat a defending cham­ pion, beating Harry Marr in the pre­ liminaries. Marshall is only a fresh­ man but he's tough. Short and stocky, he employs a charging type of fighting, punching short, murder­ ous blows when in close. This in­ fighting is his chief fort and should make this bout most interesting in as much as his opponent, Phil Pur­ cell is the exact opposite in style. Purcell is another one of those tall, rangy lads who punches standing straight up. He boxes very weir and uses a powerful uppercut which should prove very interesting against Marshall, who fights from a crouch.

By adding an extra class—the ban­ tamweight— to this year's program, the prowess of "Slugger" O'Neil will be exhibited for all those who care to pay their ducats for the Bengal show. "Slugger" starts his swing from the ground up, and is the most feared man on the third floor of Walsh. His native city is Springfield, Mass., and prior to the past month, O'Neil had never drawn on a mitt or entered the four-squared arena. Manilla will be well represented in the person of "Killer" Eoces, 118 pounds of dynamite, when the leath- erpushers have their little get togeth­ er tonight in the fieldhouse. The "Tiger" Pox hails from Newark, Ohio. He is a veteran of but one offi­ cial fight in his career—^that being the first of this week, when he whipped Helmar, a Bengal contestant for the last three years. Opposing Fox in the 126-pound class, will be the pride of Oklahoma, Howard "Kid" Gooden. The "Keed" is a protege of his big brother, Hal, having absorbed quite a bit of in­ struction from the latter. Gooden captured the paper-weight champion­ ship of 85 pounds, in Tulsa before he was out of the ninth grade. While RIGHT—Hal Gooden.

Coming from Chicago, Marcy has had 3% years of ring experience. In 1934, he carried away high tallies in the 126 pound division. In all, the "Sen­ ator" is a leatherpusher of 160 battles and in 1931 was C.Y.O. featherweight holder. His name has graced the Golden Gloves team twice in a row, and in '32 the Intercollegiate cham­ pionship rested in his possession. "Tex" Durkin seems to 'dog' Sen­ ator Marcy's heels or perhaps it's vice versa.

Jim was beaten as a sophomore in the Ohio State meet in the 440 yard dash and this is noteworthy for it was the Bay State boy's first defeat in three years. While in his senior year at Medford High, later at Clark School and during his freshman year at Notre Dame, Jim was undefeated. He won his N.D. as a sophomore in the various 440 yard events. Last year Jim ran both in the 440 and on the mile relay quartet; sometimes alternating and other times attempt­ ing the both tasks in the same aftei-- noon. This year his efforts have been solely expanded in the interests of the fast-stepping mile relay team. Jim played "B" team football as a center in his sophomore term here but in a tilt against the St. Thomas eleven at Scranton, Pa., his right knee was injured and he hasn't played since. James tips the scales at 185 pounds, at present, and stands six feet an' one inch in height in height. He is a senior in the Physical Education school and expects to coach after receiving his "sheepskin" in June. He rooms in a comfortable double in Walsh with Jerry Molinari.
