Pare Four THE TAR HEEL Thursday, March 1,1923 NEW DORIiIS WIN B0MTG TOURNEY Slagle . and Condon, Heavy weights, Feature Event of ; Toumment. - The fans of fisticuffia received a dainty morsel on Monday night in the Tin Can when the New Dorm3 leath- erpushers hammered out a clean-cut 5 to 2 win over the Old East pugs to win the undisputed championship of the campus. This was the final match of the annual Intramural boxing tour nament that had already progressed through three earlier rounds. The lads from the 'Confederate Dormitories" demonstrated a clear, su periority in all of the matches ex cept the featherweight and middle weight divisions, and added another Intramural championship to a collec tion that already includes four other titles this year. The New Dorms ath letes had previously this year captur ed the dormitory- football title, the campus' football title, the dormitory cross-country crown, and only . this week the basketball team won undis- puted and undefeated possession of the dormitory cage honors. Heavyweight Match a Feature The feature match of the evening was the unlimited heavyweight bout between Slagle 6f New.' Dorms and Condon of Old East. This setto con cluded the program, and even before """" it began the New Dorms seven had cinched the title with a 4 to 2 lead. I Slagle weighed in at 185, while Condon held a five pound advantage with 190 pounds. Both, were superb specimens and each displayed speed 4i nd cleverness with their gloves. The bout stopped rather- suddenly, but while it lasted it was easily on par with any varsity, fight seen this year. Both men opened with terrific body punches and occasional lightning lefts -ind right hooks to the face. Big Dick Slagle launched a straight left and followed up with a right to the tem ple that left .Condon groggy. A mo ment later a terrific right below Con Jon's heart sent, the Easterner reel ing across the ring for a long, long count. The show was over for Con don, and Slagle was the University's 1 heavyweight title-holder. , - Earlier Fights Fast Earlier fights in the lighter weights were fast -and furious, f with techni cal knockouts in the middle and light heavy divisions. The Elmore-Chrisco setto in the lightweight went . four rounds of -furious cuffing before El more earned a decision. The show opened with Joe Boyles, New Dorms bantamweight, drawing a forfeit in his class. This put New Dorms out in front to start, but Odell Griffin came back in the featherweight and won a tough decision over Bill Kingsbury of New Dorms. The two featherweights put up some fast fight ing and began the meet in highly sat isfactory fashion for the spectators. : With the score tied at one-all Mat Elmore put New Dorms out in front with a decision jpver Howard Chrisco of Old East. It took. Elmore four rounds to earn his victory, and it was due to his harder punching . that he won. Chrisco apparently outpointed Elmore in the early rounds, but was unable to withstand the terrific punch es of the New, Dorms fighter in. the third and fourth cantos. Kouri New Dorms welterweight, outpointed Manager "Windy"- Crew of Old East in their fight and gave Newi Dorms a 3 to 1 lead ( in the matches. Crew landed several hard rights and lefts that rocked his op ponent, but Kouri's superior know ledge of boxing won the day. The next two fights brought the first knockouts both classed as tech nical knockouts, but, they would have soon progressed into clean-cut ten count wins if the,, seconds had not tossed the towels. "Mac" Howard, freshman athlete and Old East's whirlwind middleweight, drew the first of these technical wins. Fighting like a circle-saw turned loose, Howard quickly reduced Newton of New Dorms to a state of semi-conscious ness. The towel from New Dorms' corner saved Newton further punish' , ment. Howard had a 11 pound weight advantage. . "Slim" Williamson. .New Dorms light heavy, furnished the comedy in terest of the meet along with some fast punching in hi3 technical knock out over Osborne of Old East. Wil " liamson floored his man early in the round, and in a few seconds the towel flashed into the middle of the ring from Osborne's corner. Summary by bouts: ' Bantamweight: Boyles, New Dorms, won by default. ; Featherweight: Griffin , Old East, won by a judges' decision over Kings bury, New Dorms. Lightweight: Elmore, New Dorms, won a judges' decision over Chrisco, Old East, in a furious four round fight. Welterweight: Kouri, New Dorms, University" Glee Club Rendered An Enjoyable Concert Harmony and versatility character ized the program rendered by the Carolina Glee Club at the Playmaker ; Theatre on Tuesday evening. The music used by the organization in its local concert, given under the sponsorship of the" Community Club, had a range from old French carols and Latin sacred music through folk songs, modern numbers, and a group of negro spirituals" In their treat ment of all these groups, the singers showed Jan understanding of their music and an appreciation of harmon ic value. Of all the groups, the negro spirituals and work songs seemed the most popular with the audience. This is doubtless due -to; the fact that this type of music is close to all southern ers and something to which they are accustomed. The singers also ren dered these numbers in a manner in dicative of deeper sympathy and un derstanding than some of - the other selections. ' "Little David Play On Your Harp" received the greatest ap plause and the club was forced to. re peat this number with its forceful rhythm and catchy harmonious end ing. In the sacred group, "Bring A Torch, Jeanette, Isabella," an old French Carol, proved as popular here as on the concert tours, and was re peated. The eight part chorus, "O Filii Et Filae " and the old favorite "Ave Maria," were also well received by the audience. The listeners showed their first signs of genuine amusement and ap preciation when, the club sang an Irish ;jig song.; "The Galway Piper," and also seemed to appreciate the rhythm' characterizing the "Reaper's Song," a Bohemian folk number. Folk music has always proved popular with the . audience here, and this year proved no exception. . , Of the modern group, the Grieg number, "Land-Sighting" took the place as the most inspiring number on the program; it was also notable for the beauty of piano accompani ment. "A Moorish Serenade" and the "Chorus of Camel Drivers" were numbers rich in harmony, intrically interwoven as to part and showed the quality of the club by the effective way in which they were sung and their ability to keep up the smoothly flowing parts and perfect control over sustained notes and difficult pas sages. Wv-'.-;-.,V ' A feature of the concert was the group of solos sung by Charles Tr ox ell, instructor in voice here. Mr. Troxell's songs showed the mastery of solo work which has placed him in great demand all over the country to sing in various musical festivals. His numbers showed perfection in the technicalities of vocal work and were sung with feeling and sympathy, Mr. H. F. Comer, secretary of the local , Y.M.C.A. and Nash Johnston, President, left this morning, to attend the .winter meeting of the Student Council of the ten Southeastern states.

Manager Smith desires Col. Bush Tells of Engineering Feats In Bridge Building Colonel Lincoln Bush, president of the American Society of Civil Engi neers, speaking to students of the en gineering . school Saturday morning, presented the story of the development of bridges and the part played by en gineers ,i in . conquering the forces of nature. - " ' "The conquest of the Mississippi by the hydraulic engineer, and the con quest of the Panama Canal Zone by the civil and sanitary engineer are typical of the progress being made possible by the engineer," he said. In outlining the conquests of the engi neer Colonel Bush cited the victory of the mechanical engineer over distance. He also lauded the electrical engineer in conquering : communication dis tances with the radio. The moving of a 740 ton draw bridge over the Passaic River at New ark, N. J., was described and illus trated with pictures. This bridge, which was moved to a site downstream and placed on piers 10 feet lower, was twelve hours in the moving.

The audience, though smaller than that' at the morning ad dress, was no less captivated by the speaker's incessant flow of anecdotes. Colonel Bush, in his second address, described the building of a gigantic twelve million dollar bridge in the Middle West. He was an independent engineer at this time and attributed his success in getting the bid to the simple and efficient methods which he has always employed.
