BOXING SEASON
GREAT SUCCESS,
SUMMARY SHOWS
Team Won All Dual Meets and
Second Place at Confer
ence Tournament.
(By Henry C. Lay)
The Carolina Boxing Team has just
completed the most successful season
it has ever had. By winning all of
the dual meets and taking second
place at the Southern Conference
Tournament, it has set a record that
will serve as a goal for future box
. ing .teams. ::: '-:
With four veterans from last year's
team Coach Crayton Rowe developed
a team of battling pugilists that went
through the season with marked suc
cess. Butler, Warren, Shaw and Shu
ford were letter men and Bobbitt,
Wike, Nash Johnson, Steve Furches,
Brown, Baird, Rees and Meiggs came
up from the varsity and freshman j
squads. Much has been said about
the men who fought in matches, but
little or no credit has been given to
those who have been manhandled by
the regulars in their preparation for
meets. Boxers say that it is hot so
much the actual fighting that they
mind but that the hard training is
what gets under their skin. Too much
cannot be said of the hard work' and
' sacrifice ; the scrubs underwent in
training the leatherpusher for fights.
Review of Season
Carolina opened the season by an
nexing a 6 to 2 victory from the Uni
versity of Florida jn the Tin Can.
This was the first intercollegiate box
ing meet to be held at Chapel Hill.
Warren and Carpenter furnished the
bright spots of the evening in the
light heavyweight and bantamweight
scraps, both giving exhibitions of
classy boxing.
The leatherpushers literally smoth
ered V. P. I. under an avalanche of
blows to win the second meet by a
score of 5 to 1. Russell and Captain
Shuford gathered in technical knock
, puts in the lightweight and heavy
weight bouts wiile K. O. Warren
stretched his man on the canvass in
the second round. ' Russell staged one
of Kit Guard's stunts by coming back
with a knockout blow after being
knocked through the ropes. "
Georgia was the next team to fall
victim to the Tar Heels' punches,
to 3. The welterweight bout was the
cream of the meet with two former
schoolmates, Charlie Brown and
Haly, as contestants. BroVn got the
decision after four rounds of hard
fighting. K. 0. Warren went out of
his weight to fight Captain Lucky,
All-Southern Tackle, in the heavy
weight bout. He knocked down Lucky
twice in the first round for the count
of nine and once each in the second
and third periods to get the decision.
Carolina handed Virginia the first
defeat they had suffered south of the
Mason-Dixon line in boxing. The
Cavaliers had only been beaten in the
history of boxing at that institution
by Colgate and Penn State. Carpet
ter and Brown went four rounds with
their men in the bantamweight and
middleweight scraps, to win, although
these men &id beat them put in the
tournament held later in the, season.
K. O. Warren won a technical knock
out in the first round.
The fifth victory for the Tar Heels
was a 4 to 3 win over Washington
and Lee. Warren and Captain Shu
ford got technical knockouts in the
heavier weights, Ed Butler the deci
sion in the welterweight bout and
Carpenter got a forfeit in the bantam
weight class.
V. M. I. gave Carolina the hardest
fight during the entire, season but
came out at the small nd of a 4 to
8 score. V.' M. I. captured the first
three bouts by good margins. Ed
Butler and Charlie Brown swapped
weights and both won in the middle
weight and welterweight scraps re-

his fight and Shuford topped off the
evening's entertainment with a knock
out over Moorman in the heavyweight
class.' Moorman was dead to the
world for 22 minutes and lost three
teeth. . -

Carolina was doped to win the
Southern Tournament, but Virginia
kicked over the old dope bucket and
took the big end of the score. How
ever, Butler, Warren and Captain
Shuford came through in the fights
to win first places. Carpenter, Cam
mings, and Brown each took a third
place to count in the scoring. Ed
Butler, K. O. Warren and Ox Shu
ford came through the season with-
