Uusn TPImmeI ohnny Ray Virginia's Bobby Rush is a boxer who would possibly look impresive against one of his sparring partners, a Citadel cadet, or perhaps one of the sun-tanned fighters down Miami way. But he had just as well step into a buzz-saw as to climb into the squared circle with the current 132-pound freshman boxer from the University of South Carolina. It's likely that the game little boxer will balk at another meeting with Andy Sciambra. Rush didn't have the opportunity Monday night to demon strate just what type boxer he is. That is, you could hardly tell whether he hits hard, jabs, or just what he does, because Sciambra was in and out, jabbing, hooking, and doing just about everything in the book including a classy two step which made him appear to be out of his opponent's class as well as out of his reach. Rush really appeared to be a game fighter and tried to bore in on the elusive Sciambra, but couldn't touch him. The battle-tired Rush was unable to continue his desperation attempt, as the bout was halted ,after the second round, and a referee's decision went toi Sciambra. In the first round Sciambra, dancing out of his corner, feinted just once, and quickly flickered three successive head-snapping left jabs to his opponent's face. The crowd roared with anticipation. A knockout! Everyone wanted a knockout. Sciambra danced, bobbed, and weaved as his op ponent sailed rights and lefts harmlessly over his ever moving head. Before the "swish" of the blows had subsided. one, then two lightning lefts flickered, and again the be wildered Rush was smacked solidly. He went back on the ropes and as Sciambra followed the jabs with a hurting right, his opponent fought back, swinging, charging, but the incomparable Sciambra was not to be tagged. He ducked, and was tied up by Rush, who hoped to evade any more devastat ing punches just at that moment; but skilled in-fighting on the part of the Gamecock proved dangerous also. At the bell, the crowd was jubilant, and awaited the second round with eagerness. The second round was the last round for the night for Sciambra and Rush. Sciambra's superior boxing and cutting left hand punches, mingled with slyly pushed rights, hit the button too much for the Virginian coach, who refused to allow his 132-pounder to answer the call for the third and final round. The towel was thrown in before the lights could 1-4, be put out. WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED Malcolm DeWitt undoubtedly had the toughest assign ment of the entire team Monday night when he stepped into the ring against the SIBT junior-middleweight champion, Pete Potter. Potter, who apparently had a slight advantage in weight over DeWitt, found the going a good bit tougher than he must have anticipated before he started to battle with the sophomore Gamecock. DeWitt has what most folks would call a "natural" left. He seems to be able to land this hand much more effectively than his right. He uses it more frequently and he hits harder with it. In the second and third rounds, especially, DeWitt landed time and time again as Potter attempted to charge in to land his one-two punch, which he used frequently in the first round. However, the decision was awarded to Potter. It was an unpopular decision, and could have gone either way. Probably because Potter was the aggressor, he was awarded more points, despite the fact that DeWitt slammed a left in his face practically everytime he bore in. THE BIG THREE For the past three seasons Coach Alderman has depended on his "Big Three" for sure points. Allen George, Chuck D)avis, and Emmett Gurney practically always provided those points, and Monday night was probably the last home boxing match in which these three ring vets will participate. The remaining schedule does not show another home match. As usual, George won his match Monday night. Davis was well on the road to victory when a cut on his eye necessitated the cessation of the fight. Under collegiate Srules, a bout stopped in the first round because of a cut will automatically result in a draw. Emmett Gurney,, SIBT welter champ, came through as usual with a victory. Gurney's opponent, whom he stopped in the second round last year, was a crafty gentleman, and evidently realized that if She got too close to the Gamecock champ, he would once again feel the pangs of knockout.

The unusual probleinsencountered in "Mycoban" production are largely due to the seasonal nature of its sales. Its greatst use is in the hot, humid months, or from late spring to early fall. For this reason: 1. Production and warehouse inven tories of "Mycoban" must be care fully balanced against sales forecasts. The supervisor gathers necessary background information for this op L!ratioi. 2. Production needs, including man power, equiprneit and materials, inust likewise be planned to meet males forecasts. 3. Maintenance, including a yearly bydrostatic test of the plant, must be scheduled with the plant main Lenance supervisor for the minimum interference with peak-season pro duction. Emergency maintenance must be kept down by carefully planned preventive maintenance. As you can see, production super visors have a broad field of activity at Du Pont.
