GOLDEN GLOVES - The smack of leather boxing gloves is being heard often at the armory here these days as boys begin working out prior to the Golden Gloves amateur boxing tournament which is to be held at the Washington Armory on Wednesday, Jan. 15. The two Washington entries are Myron Krotz left, and Norman Merz. The first bout of the tournament, sponsored by the Marine League, will begin at 7:30 Wednesday evening with pairings to be drawn up prior to the first fight. Among the thirty registered entries are three other boys from this area, the Schantz brothers, Don and John, and Leon Mapel, all of Ainsworth.
