DON F( Fortner Fo To One Poi By RED JOHNSON Don Fortner, 156 pound boxer, is undoubtedly the hard luck boxer of the year. He has fought four bouts, losing three while winning only one. But the catch is that all his losses were by one point. east year he lost to Vince Marshall of Virginia in the SIfT. This year he started the season with a bang by beating the coach of the Fort Jackson team in an exhibition. Against the Greenville YMCA in the first regular season match he defeated Freddy Nolan, an outstanding Golden Glove fighter. Against Virginia he lost another close fight again by one point. Against The Citadel Don fought his best fight, according to Coach Alderman and several others. It was a close fight from the start, with Don countering with an ef fective left hook whenever his opponent threw a punch, but the Pi Kappa Ph For IFC All Pi Kappa Phi is leading the fra ternities in the race for the IFC All-Sports Trop$y. The Pi Kapps hold a slim lead of six points over second place Sigma Nu. Kappa Alpha holds down third place with 170 points. Fourth and fifth places are closely contested with Phi Kappa Sigma In fourth place with 157 points and P1 Kappa Alpha just one point behind. Sigma Chi is also close with 154 points. Phi Sigma Kappa Is seventh with a total of 147 poInts. Sigma Alpha Epsilon is number eight with 113, THIS is the life of the man who t Amr Perfectly at ease perfectly comft 1J )RTNER ills Victim ntHoodoo referee saw otherwise and awarded the bout to the Citadel man again by one point. Don fought 35 fights as a Golden Glove fighter, winning 25, drawing 2 and losing 10 against outstanding. fighters. He won the welterweight crown in the novice class at Char lotte in 1949. All of his Golden Glove fights were at 147. But when he transferred from Belmont Abbey Junior College in 1950 he found Emmett Gurney fighting at 147, so he started fighting at 155. In 'all of his fights he usually gives away several inches of height and reach as he is a natural welterweight. He is a very good boxer and while he does not have a knockout punch he does have a punishing right. Don is a senior but may return for an other year as he has a year of eligibility left. He hails from Mt. Holly, N. C. and is majoring in history and physical education. i's Lead Race Sports Cup closely followed by Phi Epniln Pi, 108, and Alpha Tau Omega with 106.
