Or early August. ‘The Rock’ Is New U.S. Kickboxing Champ David “The Rock” Humphries of Kings Mountain is the new When Brad Komminsk hit a grand slam homer in the third in- ning of the Atlanta Braves game Tuesday night versus San Fran- cisco Giants, a Bessemer City native became $100,000 richer. Evelyn Eury Rogala, a native of Bessemer City, who now makes her home in Charleston, won the Goody’s Homerun Jackpot Inning, which also turned her into an instant celebrity. Although each home game has one inning announced as the Goody’s Jackpot Inning, when a person’s name is drawn for jackpot winnings, there is only one $100,000 jackpot given dur- .ing the playing season. “It’s all a matter of luck,” ex- plained Evelyn’s brother, Leonard Eury, who is responsi- ble for getting his family members “hooked” on contest entering. He enters contests weekly. He became a contest fan during World War II while serv- ing in Italy. He has won numerous prizes including such things as an automobile and a trip to Mexico. ‘But nothing big like $100,000,” he was quick to point out. The retired Appalachian State University librarian belongs to the National Contesters Associa- tion and has attended several na- tional conventions. Leonard instructed Evelyn how to enter the contest, telling her to fill in an entry blank with her name, address, telephone number, and either a Goody’s Headache Powders label or else BC Native Is Winner Braves $100,000 Prize the company’s name written on a piece of paper. When Evelyn’s name was an- nounced the winner, she was not at home. When she did get the call, her telephone started ring- ing in calls from friends and reporters from Charleston newspaper and television = sta- tions. Her brother, Leonard and sisters, Miriam, Kathryn and. Louise knew about her big win, before she did. Bessemer Citians started calling as son as the an- | nouncement was made. She will receive $20,000 a year for five years. “I told Evelyn that would give her an incentive for living- especially for the next five years,” Leonard said with good humor. He pointed out, “It’s all a mat- ter of luck. However,” he added, “it’s harder to be lucky in a draw- ing contest than in a skill con- test, such as I like so and so because...’.” Leonard believes in sending in entries for Braves games. Several years ago he won $525 on an in- ning jackpot. Evelyn’s big blast in being the $100,000 winner will take place when she attends a Braves game to collect her prize. The daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James W. Eury, she served as a WAC during World War II. She retired as a civil ser- vice worker with the Internal Revenue Service. She now does volunteer work at a Charleston Hospital. Her husband, Walter, is a retired Army career ser- viceman. 1 - STANLEY, N.C. Congratulates WENDELL 0. SMITH, CPU, CIC United States Super Welterweight champion of kickboxing. The popular KM . fighter knocked out former champion Darren Mallone of Riverside, Calif., with 20 seconds remain- ing in the ninth round to win the championship June 16 at Kings Mountain High School. Mallone is stationed at Fort Bragg, N.C., and is a member of the U.S. Army boxing team. But he was no match for The Rock, who used a spinning back fist to put Mallone on the canvas and win the U.S. title in front of 700 home fans. Humphries will defend his ti- tle in either late July or early August when he goes up against Billy Chair of Edmonton, Canada, in a 12-round bout. “The greatest fighters in the world are from the South,” says Humphries’ manager, Robbie Eng. “Many of them will become more involved now: that there are true champions in this area.” Eng sponsored 10 other bouts here June 16 in a card sanction- ed by the World Karate Associa- tion. All three of Eng’s fighters went home winners. Kevin Moss won a decision over Thomas Lowe of China Grove in the third round and Tony Smith knocked out Gary Moore in the third round to win the Southeastern U.S. title in the High School Athlete Of The Year Winners Announced America’s amateur ath- letes are getting a boost from a unique awards program.
