Quarles and Hall Headline To
night's Boxing Meet with
Virginia Polys.
CONTEST WILL BE TOUGH
Tar Heel Pugs Round Out Train
ing in Good Shape for Their
Season-Opener Tonight.
Featuring what promises to
be a "battle royal", between Nor
ment Quarles and Fred Hall,
lightweights, the University of
North Carolina boxing teams
will begin their campaign for
Southern Conference honors by
meeting the strong Virginia
Polytechnic Institute pugilists
here in the Tin Can.
Last year Referee Charlie
Short of Baltimore honored
Quarles by saying he was "the
greatest collegiate boxer" he
had ever seen. The brilliant
lightweight made history in
1933, thrilling thousands of fans
in Chapel Hill, by decisively de
feating Bobby Goldstein, Vir
ginia's national 135-pound cham
pion. It was the first time the
Virginian had been beaten as a
collegiate. Finishing the season
without a loss to his record,
Quarles blew through the South
ern Conference boxing tourna
ment winning the featherweight
crown in great style.
Dope on Fred Hall v
Fred Hall, Tech's threatening
135-pound sophomore find, will
by no means be a breather for
the dazzling Quarles. This boy
is no pushover; he employs a
powerful punch, and more than
that, he is plenty clever and
fast. Last year as a freshman,
Hall finished his season without
bowing to any opponents. In
fact he has several knockouts
under his belt. With Quarles
looking the best of his career,
showing added finesse, punch,
and speed, the lightweight event
should be a real treat.
The failure of Piatt Landis to
return to school considerably
weakens the upper berths.' How
ever Coach Rowe is making ev
ery effort to groom James Car
ruth to meet "Red" Negri, V.
P. I. crrid and boxing star. Last
year Negri extended Landis to
an extra round before he finally
succumbed to the relentless at
tack of the Southern Conference
heavyweight titlist.
Coach Esleeck Comments
Several weeks ago, Dick Es
leeck, popular boxing coach at
Virginia Tech for the past eight
seasons, had hopes of assembling
a great ring team at V. P. I. this
year, but his dreams vanished
when many of his proteges failed
to report for boxing. . Comment
ing on the drought of pugs, Es
leeck remarked : "Well, I lost
three stars I was counting on,
two of my best sophomores did
not return, and four of the eight
classes on my team are as va
cant as Goldsmith's Deserted
Village." : "
A wire reached the Daily Tar
Heel office stating that V. P. I.
has assembled an inexperienced
freshman team, strongest in the
lighter weights. : This should
not worry the Tar Heel coach
as he, too, has several formid
able lightweights. Tom O'FIa-
herty, stellar 135-pound year
ling clouter, looms as Carolina's
most nrnmisincr rineman. Al
though Tom has '-.been; troubled
by a sprained thumb all week,
he has managed to keep fit and
is raring to go. Marion Diehl
and Joe Fisher, who fill the ban
tam and welterweight divisions,
have been showing up well in
their afternoon schimmages.

When asked for a statement
concerning the boxers, Coach
Rowe, who is a man of few but
meaningful words, said, "The
boys have been training faith
fully and are eager to get start
ed. I have been greatly pleased
by the manner in which they
have been cooperating with me.
They have the right fighting
spirit."
Major Harvey L. Miller of
Washington, D, C, will referee
the bouts. The freshman bouts
are scheduled to begin at 7 :30
o'clock, followed by the varsity
fights which will take place at

they held until intermission.
Second Half All U. N. C.
Following the rest at half
time, the North Carolina invad

of pyrotechnics. Not only did
they put on necessary offensive
power, but they also cut off the
local club's chances of victory
when they held the kaydets to
one field goal and one foul goal.
The Tar Heels showed a well
coached five which came through
when the going got tough.
