Football Rebuttal: Dothan Tigers Show Potential Strengths
The Dothan Tigers intra squad scrimmage drew a big crowd yet produced no scoring as signals confused both sides. Coaches Hewes and Howater praise the line’s solid play from tackle to tackle, note backfield needs and the hope that Purvis returns strong.

One Armed Boxer Fights For Harvard
Harvard University may have a one armed boxing champion. Tos Rodgers of Pittsburgh, who lost his left arm in a railroad accident, won his semifinal bout in the 15 pound class at the first postwar university tourney last night. The judges unanimously favored Rodgers over John Lord. His affliction boosts a southpaw stance and his coach Tommy Rawson Jr. notes the move puts opponents off balance and leaves him open less often.
