Fourth VFW Fight
Card Saturday
Had Five Bouts
By HERB WILLIAMS
The Nome chapter of the Vet
erans of Foreign Wars sponsored
their fourth in a series of smok
ers for the local fight fans Satur
day which was held in the Nome
High gymnasium and featured
five bouts totaling 15 rounds of
boxing.
On he first card, Bill Saxton,
148 pounds, of CAA and Chuck
Dixon, 145 pounds, of Nome,
fought to a draw. The decision
wasn’t too popular with the fans,
some who thought Saxton was the
more aggressive.
Bernie McClure, 160 pounds,
from Charleston, W. Va., won a
very close decision over Don
Langford, 160 pounds, from Phil
adelphia. Both fighters were very
aggressive and fast on their feet,
although McClure pushed the
fight to his opponent.
The third card of the program
was a re-match between the two
well-known pugilists of the ring,
as Harold Perkins still remained
the undefeated lightweight cham
pion of Nome. Chuck Sindelar of
Iowa City met his match again
against the crafty Perkins who
hails from Sioux Falls, S.D. Perk
ins tipped the scales at 170 pounds
while Sindelar came in at 176.
It was strictly too much Perkins
for Sindelar, who fought a game,
but losing battle.
Bout number four was a battle
of Texas against Mississippi as
the Texas Cowboy at 130, lost a
close decision to the Detail Kid
who also scaled 130 pounds, from
Goldport, Miss. The Cowboy from
Beaumont got in a few good licks
against his opponent, but couldn’t
muster enough attack to gain the
judge’s eye.
The last bout, which turned out
to be the feature of the evening,
had two well known local figures,
Ted Grotha at 240 pounds and
the well known Kotzebue Bugler,
Bert Beltz at 210 pounds, a battle
of heavyweights. With a mass of
flaying arms and a brief rest on
the ropes, both boys managed to
last out the three rounds and were
well rewarded equally by the
judges who called the torrid fight
a draw.
Judges for the fights were Lu
ther Dunbar, Jim McLain and
referee Les Bronson, who served
a double role. Art Paulos counted
the knockdowns at the bell and
Lou Fulton served as timer.
Matchmaker Hap Lancaster an
nounced the next series of bouts
is tentatively set for the 4th of
July.
