The University boxing championships will be decided tonight at 8 o'clock in the Hemenway Gymnasium when the final bouts will be fought in eight classes. Particularly keen competition distinguishes the boxing tournament this year since only one of last year's champions is participating. This is E. B. Lloyd '27 in the 175-pound class whose opponents are E. K. Bartholomew '25, G. W. Buck 1L, and G. B. Manning '25.
As an added attraction for tonight, T. J. Campbell '12, under whose auspices the tournament is being conducted, has procured the celebrated Montreal Midgets, sole contenders in the 50-pound class, to battle for the entertainment of the spectators. These famed pugilists, aged 10, have fought in public for three years.
The bouts will be viewed by the members of the class of '99 who are to dine at the Union and journey en masse to Hemenway Gymnasium. Tickets may be procured at the H. A. A. and at L. & P.
