Robin Hood, Andy Anderson Easy Winners
Tourney Runoff Set Tonight
At Armory By JIM HEYROCK Seventeen Indianapolis youths still remained eligible today for titles in the Indiana AAU boxing championships. But seven local youths didn't survive the first night of fighting
last night as the state’s best ama-|
teur boxing talent squared off in 27 bouts in the National Guard Armory. , Remainder of the eliminations, semifinals and finals will be held in the Armory tonight. Because all divisions are crowded in this year's tourney, including the heavyweight division which usually is shy of entries, nearly all of last night's winners were required to fight twice. Two popular fighters who survived the initial night of warfare are Andy Anderson, this year's Golden Gloves champion, and Robin Hood, who was runnerup to Anderson for the welterweight title. Anderson first punched out a victory over Buddy Jefferson of Muncie last night and then came in again to win over Ben Sowell of the Senate Ave. YMCA. Sowell, a highly regarded welter who won the Novice championship of the Golden Gloves was oonsidered an even match for Anderson. Early in the first stanza he caught Anderson on the ropes and poured on several of his hard rights. Starts Off Fast But Anderson quickly gave the fans proof of how the fight was going to end. Sowell, who has plenty of power in his punches but lacks ability to absorb a punch, caughi a short left jab and sunk to the canvas for an eight-count. He went down again in the second round but managed to climb back to his feet and stay the distance .with Anderson, Anderson took the decision by a wide margin. Hood also scored. He gave a short. course in punchology to a member of the Purdue University boxing team, James Campbell. Hood toyé&d with Campbell through part-of the first round and then opened with his big guns in the second. Campbell kissed the canvas twice for nine counts in the second and was unable to continue at the end of the heat. Wins 2 Bouts Leon Hudson, featherweight, also turned in a commendable performance, He decisioned Leon Mallory of Indianapolis in his first fight and then came back later in the evening to win a verdict oyer Jerry Landis, a rugged scrapper from Muncie. There were 27 bouts on last night's card and about the same humber are carded for tonight. After tonight's finals a champion will ‘be crowned in each weight division. They will be presented awards following the last bout tonight. The eight fighters will comprise a team to represent Indiana in the National AAU tournament in Boston Apr. 4, 5 and 6. - Ten Indianapolis entries, including three heavyweights, have not Seen action In this year's tourney. In' last night's session there Were four knockouts, four technical knockouts, one default and 18 decisions.
