And take it from us, a gem he is. Smith lost his bout Thursday night to Boston's Tom DaTis: on: match the triumphs of the victors. One. on the sidelines tonight will be Redwood City's Archie Milton who was literally only eight seconds from a trip to Eome when disaster struck in the final match of the semifinals last night. Milton, who has been pointing for the trip for four years, drew 'powerful Percy Price, the Marine champion for his foe.

Price, much ruggeder than his name would indicate, drew out the best in the cautious Milton. The two men punched hard and well for two rounds. In the third canto, Milton stepped up the pace as Price began to weaken. The KedwoDd Ciiy senior buckled Price's knees with several hard shots to the head and crashed a left to the jaw that caromed the Marine off the ropes. Arch Relaxed With SO seconds to go Milton appeared to relDX as if he knew he was in.

Suddenly Price exploded a right to the jaw and the former Sequoia High school student was slammed to the canvas for the first time in his four year career. Milton, who had fought the best ivithout ever being hurt, rolled over, instincts barely functioning. He straddled his heavy torso to its height as Referee Jack Downey wiped away the gloves. As 'Milton, moved forward the timekeeper signified only ten seconds to go. Price calmly whipped, another right to Milton's jaw and the Spartan flew through the ropes out cold.

Downey halted the fight as Coach Julie Menendei 'protested that Dniy eight seconds were left. Milton would have met his old foe Harold Espy in the finals and at least would be an alternate tD Rome. Hardluck Army champion Elmer Rush also was dogged with misfortune in heavy class. Rush dropped Espy with a hail a fluie technical knock Carmen.

Referee (Captain) R. 'Surkein, an army man, inspected the wound and stopped' the fight. IT WAS A crying shame.

And Smith almost did. Because, four years ago this same kid reached 'the threshold of the Olympic Games, only to. lose out in the finals. He had' counted himself in as a lead pipe cinch it this year. So you had to sympathize with him when he pleaded with.

the referee to aHow'him to continue, blood be damned. But the. official would have no of it. Smith swallowed the lump id his throat and reluctantly obeyed the verdict. It wasn't easy for the third man to shatter a kid's dream like that, but he got no sympathy from the crowd.

They gave him the business. But it was a bum rap, because the Captain was only protecting the Md from more serious injury.
