Wisconsin faculty votes to abolish intercollegiate boxing
The University of Wisconsin faculty voted overwhelmingly to end intercollegiate boxing, ending a 27 year tradition. The motion, by Dr. David Fellman, says boxing is not appropriate for the university. Charles Mohr, a 22 year old Merrick New York senior and former NCAA champion, died after collapsing in the dressing room following his title fight. Bartel beat Mohr earlier in the year in their third meeting. Mohr died eight days after his Easter Sunday collapse from a brain hemorrhage.

Pitcher Only As Good As His Legs Says Alston Dodgers
Dodgers manager Walt Alston credits leg strength for pitching stamina, noting Don Drysdale’s 11 innings in the opener showed the benefit of spring training leg work. He rejects the idea that nine spring innings prove readiness, favoring two pitchers getting game reps. Alston emphasizes control over a plethora of pitches, with Joe Becker shaping leg and command training in spring sessions at Vero Beach.
