'Serious scrums broke Boxer as far back as 1911' story about Boxer damage

Description

An article in the Hillsboro Argus features the Boxer mascot from Pacific University explaining the significance of the bronze mascot to the students . Pacific has a tradition of 'toss outs' with the mascot, which consist of a large group of students gathering to gain possession of the Boxer. Throughout the years parts of the Boxer were broken off, one alumni recently returned the tail. The alumni goes on to explain how he obtained the tail and why it took him so long to finally return the tail. The original Boxer was last seen in 1968 leaving only a foot and tail for Pacific to reminisce on.
