Riccardi Takes Andrews
Fieldhouse Ring Slugfest
PFC. ANDY RICCARDI, CHESTER, PA., SUCCESSFULLY
DEFENDED HIS IBC HEAVYWEIGHT CROWN LAST SATURDAY
LIGHT IK THE RING OF THE ANDREWS FIELDHOUSE WHEN
HE PUNCHED OUT A THREE-HOUND DECISION OVER PVT.
EARL ZIMMERMAN, WOODSTOCK, ill., in the main at-
traction OF THE BOXING AND WRESTLING SHOW.
The verdict was Ric-
cardi's fourth straight
and his second in a row
over the plucky Zimmer-
man.
Riccardi uncorked his
powerful overhand right
repeatedly in an effort
to score a knockout hut
Zimmerman weathered the
barrage of leather and
was still trading pun-
ches at the final gong.
One of the best mitt
performances seen here
in some time saw S/2C
Silly Anderson, USN, of
Irontown, 0., and Pvt.
Hardy Montooth, light-
heavyweight king of the
IBC,mix it up for three
fast exhibition rounds.
Two TKO1s marked the
card.
The first saw LAC Tom
Young and LAC Paddy Al-
lerly, both of the RAF,
put on a windmill exhi-
bition until Young tir-
ed in the third, giving
Allerly the decision.
In another RAF fight,
LAC Ray Overmass won a
two-round TKO from LAC
Joe Strain when Strain
was unable to continue.
LAC Roger Pelletier
of the RCAF flattened
LAC Paul Landry, also
of the RCAF,with a body
press to take the only
vrestling battle on the
card._____________
Bowling Finals
Start Monday
Ten outfits will com-
pete in the playoffs of
the Reykjavik division
of the IBC bowling lea-
gues which will open on
Monday night, October
30, on the main ARC al-
leys.
Champions of the five
circuits and the second
place teams have been
picked to roll for the
Reykjavik title.
We have a limited number of Temple University
football schedules which can be had by dropping
us a line....In response to all those telephone
calls - Tulane won that Rice game, 21-0...If the
radio isn't goofing off, you ought to bring in
the Army-Duke, Illinois-Notre Dame tilts today.
Since we oounded out those snorts stories
a few changes have been made......'Washington
was dumped from the grid undefeated by Sou-
thern Cal Monday, 38-7; and the MP Mustangs
gave Navy its first setback in IBC hoop war-
fare 'Wednesday night, 56-45.
Pvt. George (CUR.HEHD) Metsopulos,Newark,N.J.,
who holds the individual IBC bowling marks,broke
his own single game record Monday ni^it when he
rolled 199 in his final game....All in all, Navy
had a bad week... .Their gold braids also suffer-
ed their first loss - to the Lob-Stars, 38-20.
Don't worry too much boys - things remain
sane back in the States....A Harvard U. prof
advocates a woman for U.S. president.....And
Yale has a course on How Not To Drink....Es-
sence of the course is "Don't Drink.".. ..And
baby food is off the ration list.
Don't be surprised if you see Joe DiMaggio in
a Yankee uniform next summer - and we don't mean
GI....He'B back in the States and may receive a
medical discharge....When the St.Louie Cardinals
won the '44 World Series their winning cuts were
smaller than those of '43 when they lost.
Pvt. Earl Zimmerman scores with a right cross
in his bout with Pfc. Andy Riccardi last Satur-
day night at the Fieldhouse. Using that cocked
right, Riccardi went on to take a decision. Leg
