The Golden Gloves Boxing Tournament LTHOUGH we all were suffering with a desire to get home on Spring Furlough, no one can say that the Corps of Cadets did not enjoy the Golden Gloves Bouts. They were generally evenly matched and fairly fought. With three West Point dignitaries serving as judges and referee, the bouts were run off in good form and rapid order. Dunham, L., was the only combatant to repeat his victory of 1938. Fighting again in the Bard Hall Dwarfs division, he defeated Turner for the supremacy of the lightest-weight group. Ruzzo once again fought his way to the finals among the Bard Hall Middies, but this time lost, by a slight mar- gin, to Dunham, R. Fiory, who as a finalist in the Lightweight class, was defeated by Armellino in l938, this time faced Field in the final bout of the same division, and emerged trium- phant. ,U ,. ,.,......., .,-, LIEUT. KOHOUT PRESENTING THE GOLDEN GLOVES TO WINNERS IN TOURNAMENT The other winners-Daly, D., Steinberger, J., Peelle, Conner, Merz and Daly, F.,-were not only first-time win- ners, but also were finalists this year for the first time. Many of the decisions were extremely close, the reason for this being that the fighters-to the last man-put up a real and tough battle. As many have said, the Corps' spirit was really there. The boxers put every ounce into their punches and both Corps and fighters showed greatest courtesy. The awards were presented by the Commandant of Cadets, Lieutenant Kohout.
