f2t3 ROSALIND "BABE" ZUN1NI Now with I Ma4elU Beauty Shop. Phone 352 1 X27t3 STEWART FIGHT A crowd of about fifteen hundred persons packed the Stewart Indian school gymnasium last night to watch a well rounded out amateur fight card in which Stewart fighters faced youngsters from Pyramid like, Schurz and Reno. The card was the last in a series conducted by Albert Hawley, Nevada A. A. U.

commissioner, to enter a team from this state in the national try-outs in San Francisco. Plenty of sensational boxing was done and in most cases the boys were well matched. Still, the results showed two knockouts and two technical kayoes in the ten-bout, program. Highlights of the card were the bouts between George Holmes and Joe Schovini, Bill Gleason and Dan Davis, Lester Reymus and Ned Crutcher, and John McGarvey and TJly Davis. "Doggy" Holmes engaged Schovini, 170-pound Schurz entry, in a wild melee in which Schovini was down several times, and "Doggy" was on the verge of being knocked out at least twice.

Holmes was groggy early in the first round but the Schurz boy failed to press his advantage and Holmes made a comeback, banging Schovini all over the ring in the last two heats, finally scoring a knockout in the last minute of the third round. Schovini was saved from an earlier knockout when the bell ended the first round. Little Billy Gleason of Reno and Bud Davis of Stewart, fighting at 120 pounds, staged a hectic scrap with Davis gaining the decision by a narrow margin. The little fellows brought the crowd up cheering time after time as each staged sensational rallies. Gleason led in the early stages with clever boxing but the bout developed into a wild slugging bee in which Davis had the better of the going.

John McGarvey, Stewart's 138-pound Pacific Coast novice champion gained the verdict over Chief Uly Davis, Pyramid's 142-pound fighter and former holder of the Southern California Golden Gloves crown, in another good bout. Mc Garvey displayed a beautiful left jab which had Davis in trouble from the beginning and the ex-Southern Californian could never get started. One of the surprises of the evening was the knockout scored by Lester Reymus of Schurz over Ned Crutcher of Stewart. The boys weighed 150 pounds. The loss, which occurred midway in the first round, was one of the few ever suffered by Crutcher.

Reymus started out by staying on the defensive, while Crutcher rushed in quickly. Crutcher was coming in when Reymus cracked him a hard blow in the ribs, sending him to the canvas partially paralyzed. The Stewart boy barely failed to beat the count. Warren Earth, Pyramid lake heavyweight, gave the customers several laughs while he was shellacking Al Watts of Reno. Earth injured his right arm when he caught the arm on the ropes early In the second round, but found he could get along very well with his left.

Richard Smith weathered a great third round comeback to decision Buddy Crawford of Carson in a nice fight in the 126-pound class. Roland Spencer of Stewart tech-nicalled Loyd Brenard of Schurz in the second round in a 140-pound class bout; Richard Worlie, of Bishop, decisioned Ted Pete of Stewart in the 132-pound class; George Young, 135, of Pyramid, caught Warren Wilson, 135, of Stewart, off form and gained a decision; Steve Brown of Stewart technicalled Bud Gleason, 137, of Reno, in the third. Hawley announced that the na tional championship try-outs will be held in San Francisco March 4, 6, 8 and 15. Entrants from Nevada will be: novice class Theodore Pete, Steve Brown, Dan Davis, Warren Wilson, George Young, Bud Crawford, Bud Gleason and Jimmy Hill; seniors Richard Smith, Roland Spencer, Lawrence Raye, George Holmes, John McGarvey, Uly Davis, Bill Gleason, Ned Crutcher and Lester Reymus.
