 "One of the ring corners of the Hall of Bridgeport.
 '"The blonde haired youngster is Q natural fighter as he proved in his bouts with Young O'Leary in this city and George Proto in New Ha- ven. He is coming to the fore in leaps. He packs a good right hand but he needs a better defense. Other wise he shapes up about ass good as any lad we've seen."
