NORWOOD WINS
FROM PARSON
(Continued From Page One)
"Oxford Joe" Norwood, terror of the
English department. He received
nearly as large a hand as his oppon
ent had received. He came into the
ring at nine-twenty o'clock, wearing
purple and yellow t.runks and blue
boxing shoes. Murchsion had on a
pair of white trunks which he said
stood for purity.
At ten o'clock sharp, "Merciless"
Mercer the announcer, called the
fighters into the middle of the ring to
give them their final instructions.
Murchison slipped a psaln book into
his glove while Norwood objected to,
however it was found out that he had
placed a copy of Shakespeare into his
glove which he was made remove.
The Fight by Rounds
Round one: Norwood leads off with
a vicious left jab from Paradise Lost.
Mui-chison counters with the 'Ten
Conmiandements. They clinch and are
-parring cautiously at the bell.
!ot'nd two: Murchison rushes from
his rorner like a wounded Tiger only
to be 3topped by a right hook from
Chaucer. Murchison counters with the
t-nth Commandment and Norwood
-akes the count of three. The crowd
hissus and boos the fighters, telling
-lnem to fight. They fall into a clinch
'a!11 Norwood slams over a Shake
,ierean sonnet. The hell saves Mur
alison.
Round three : Murchison stayes %
-:ome-back and wrestles Oxford Joe
around the ring. Norwood becomes
dlesper'ate and lands a solid right jab
from .Baccaccio. Murchison yells
"foul." Norwood agrees and the fight
is continuedl. The Oxford wonder is
boxing carefully at the bell.
Round four : Norwood rushes Mur
chison who sidle step)s him and lands
on the chin wvith the Song of Solo
mon. He lands a right jab with the
Apostles creed and Norwvood hits the
rosin, he is tup immnediate.ly and places
over a nmeat essay which stops the
praying parson.
Round five: They fall into a clinch.
Norwood cuts loose wvith a Browning
(Iuotation which rocks the hacker of
the Apostles. He follows his advan
tage with the "Ring and the Book"
but Murchison counters with a p)arable.
Round six : They feel that the end
is near andl throw caution to the
winds. Murchison lands on the chin
with the Psalms and Norwood lands a
ling. The Parson stalls but come
left and a right using Rudyard Kip
ling. The Parson stalls but conmes
b)ack with the Commandments. Nor
wood landls with a Whiz Bang and
Murchison takes the count.
