ship finals.

. | After four weeks of battling, the |

tourney field is down to a total of 50 eligibles, 22 in the open class and 28 In the novice. Tonight's carnival of flying fists will reduce the competition to 32 fighters, 16 in the open, 16 in the novice. That will set the stage for tomorrow’s 16 title scraps when eight champions will be crowned ‘in both open and novice brackets. Leather to Fly Only tonight's winners in the semi-finals will be eligible .for $omorrow’s fisticuffing and close tournament followers are taking it for granted the leather will fly tonight like it has never been propelled before in the current classic. These amateurs are eager, proud and determined. They know it's a case of win tonight or step aside until next year, For that reason, the three-round Bouts are expected to set a dizzy pace in give-and-take, toe-to-toe and head-to-head punching. If all boys make the proper weight and pass the physical examinations, there will be 18 bouts tonight and 16 tomorrow night. The first match will go on at 8 p. m. both tonight and tomorrow. All battles are scheduled for three. two-minute rounds. Heavy Duty for Some Tonight's open class contests will occur in the featherweight, welterweight, middleweight and Jight heavy divisions. In the novice class, the. fiyweight, bantamweight, featherweight, lightweight and middleweight divisions will be called upon to slug it out. There are no rematches In Golden Gloves tourneys and a winner must always be declared regardless of the

closeness of a bout. In other words, |

no draw decisions are permitted. Last week’s local show furnished a wide variety of boxing, consisting of k. o.'s, technical k. o's and bouts to a finish. : It probably will be more of the same tonight, but with added swinging. The third round is the big one in these amateur battles because that usually is the stanza which determines the winner,

On Tuesday the Indiana House of Representatives passed House Bill No. 142, which seeks to legalize in Indiana discriminatory practices in casualty insurance rating that otherwise would violate certain Federal laws The bill now has gone to the Indiana Senate, where it will be voted upon shortly.

From the start this Committee publicly has made it, | clear that the bill's passage would set up a secret black market in automobile insurance in this state. For the ordinary car owner. this would mean paying high maximum rates for his automobile insurance. Favored car owners could make secret deals for low | cut rates on their automobile insurance, and the In-
