All-St- 1 g Riders Take Two Trophies In State Show SPORTS CORNER THE FIRST actual bareknuckle boxing encounter on American soil occurred in 1816 when Jacob Hyer defeated Tom retirBeasley. Hyer's son, Tom, inherited his father's laurels and Sullivan. Yankee the ed in 1849, after defeating English slugger, Hyer was succeeded by John C. Morrissey. Bareknuckle boxing came to an end in the United States in the 1880s. On February 7, 1882, John L. Sullivan knocked out Paddy Ryan in nine rounds in Mississippi City, Mississippi, to become the last of the bareknuckle champions, a title his held for the rest of his life. d When a Army sergeant says that he doesnt care much for American girls, one might accuse him of being stationed too long in the Utah desert. Youd probably want to send him to the TECOM headsh linker's for intense study and tests. Suh Kang II (English translation is Number I Strong Man), a sergeant in the South Korean Army, is an exception. American girls too tall, Suh said with a toothy grin through an interpreter. THE TRUTH IS, however, that Suh may be. too tall in his upcoming bout with a California boxer named Rojas. This will be Suh's first fight in the U.S. Sah is the number two ranked junior lightweight and Rojas is ranked number three. Suh was orphaned during the Korean War, and was homeless and lived by his wits and fists in Seoul, when the manager of a boxing stable took him off the streets and into his home. hard-nose- lf calf-ropi- dur- winners. by Jack Hamilton Mike Draper, riding Russell Christensen's horse, Alibee, finished as the Utah State runner-u- p mile race during in the one-hathe state horse show at Richfield recently.
