A copy of a newspaper photograph showing Pacific University freshman student Bob Conover (Class of 1960) fighting over the school's Boxer statue. In this fight, which the students called a "Boxer Toss," student groups were fighting to gain possession of the statue, which had been frozen into a block of ice. This appears to have occurred during Homecoming festivities on Oct. 29, 1955 according to other newspaper accounts.
