European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - May 6, 1948, Darmstadt, Hesse                                May 1948 the stars and stripes Page sport this coming saturday two Jlane loads of Young men representing the dec for the coming olympic boxing trials will take off on their state Side hop under the direction of head coach and Majo Anthony Contes title As head coach gives us much food for thought inasmuch As we carried a Story about Bill Cooper of Safe being the head coach right after the Coope coached Safe team walked away with the top honors in the dec boxing in an Effort to get the Correct Story we had to go All the Way to Thi top Man in Neucom Hull piecing together what Hull told us and what we could gather in a release sent from bad nauheim of the Neucom we find indeed that Conte is to be the head coach and Cooper fought 86 professional fights to further clarify matters we wanted to know just what Coopers position would be on the team and we were told that he would be the assist int fitting Reward for a Man whom most boxing fans in the dec concede to be the Best boxing coach Over Here at the present proof Cooper knows his business is hot during his professional career As a fighter in the states he lost Only five out of 86 and that he can impart his knowledge of boxing to others is shown by the championships his Safe fighters have on the other hand As much As we can find out about Contes coach ing ability is that he helped train the boxing team at Perm state which College he played on the football team and was a member of the wrestling on the press release we received from the athletic Branch we note that Conte is known to sportsmen As the Mike Jacobs of the which is Allwell and but is Mike Jacobs a coach of boxers we always thought Uncle Mike took care of the administrative details Gate receipts that let the coaching and managing be handled by More competent a tire two Heads Are not belter than one we pressed Hull on just what Cooper would do As assistant coach and were told that Cooper would take care of the fighters and do the but we that sounds like the head coaches which would be Contes the colonel that Conte will the training policies and name the fighters besides doing his Job As officer charge All of which reduces Cooper to the status of an errand As far As we can see the old saying thai two Heads Are better than one Doest hold True in this the dec boxing team wou2d be far better off with one Man As coach and one Man As both Are full time who has been associated with army athletics for the most part of his thinks the dec contingent will have a very Good Chance of gaining the finals in the of tournament in the who watched some of the stateside army tournaments this last said he considered the dec team to be in far better condition that their brother Sinars in the he particularly likes Austin John Bochnicka of like All the rest of Arnold even if we dont see Eye to Eye with the colonel on All we sort of like the
