Festival Smoker
Draws Big Crowd
The Boxing and Wrestling
Smoker held during the King Crab
Festival was so enthusiastically re
ceived and proved so successful
that another is in the works for the
Fourth of July celebration here,
according to Tom Gallagher of the
Polar Bear Cafe who handles such
events in this area.
Golden Gloves AAU Champion
of Alaska, Keith Willard, 200 lbs.,
scored a TKO in the second round
of his bout with 190 pound chal
lenger Jim Urioste.
R- J. Robinson’s one pound ad
vantage over 160-pound Dave Swan
igan brought in a victory as did Hal
Vicars 2-pound advantage over 174
pound Mike Smith.
However David Freeman’s 150
pounds proved no match for Bob
Mantz’s 151.
Winner Dickens and runner-up
Ron Zauche met on exactly equal
terms at 147 pounds.
I
Resulting in draws were two
matches which saw “Little Rocky”
Valley meet “K.O.” Selig, both in
the 90 pound class, and ‘Chignik
Sanguinetti battle with “Kalsin
Creek” Olsen.
Providing the audience with a
great show were the wrestling
matches pitting Jack Rogers
against John Byron and the Kodiak
Bears against Big Dave Pineapple.
Tommy Gallagher said than an
other Smoker is planned for Labor
Day as well as the Fourth of July.
