i thought that guy was named Ron Magnum and they listed him as Ron Mangum for that show.  i'll have to dig out that issue as well

yes, that was quite the show George Snyder put on.    many of the amateurs became pro, or were some of the highest ranking amateurs of the decade.  Kemper, len Archambalt, ulf Bengsten(?) tony Pandolfo etc

snyder owned the olympus gym chain , there was one in allentown for a month or so and then they broke the franchise and renamed it the olympic fitness center, and than the 19 th st fitness center, now it's gone.
