Pugilists from House, Yard, and Graduate schools will turn out today for the annual University boxing tournament in the Indoor Athletic Building. According to Henry Lamar, fisticuff mentor, 49 men have signed up, the largest group of entries in the last ten years.

In the 135-pound class, Johnnie Bragg '41, Winthrop House champion, will find strong opposition in Dave Simboll '40 who was in the finals last year. Henry Kelly '40, of Eliot House, is undefeated in the 155-pound class and stands a good chance.

Bobby Green '39, who was captain of his Freshman team is up against Roger Downs '40, last year's defending champion in the 165-pound group.

Twenty preliminary bouts will be held today in the boxing room. The finals tomorrow will be on the main floor of the gymnasium in order to accommodate the large crowd expected to attend.
