from Lomski. He slapped and cuffed
Lomski at will but only once had

right TO the jaw sending Lomski

Three knockouts featured the box

til Willie Cain Che spells it like that
took the count early in the third
round of his scheduled 10 round
bout with Speedy Dado, king OF the
flyweights.

ring. 1t is easy to understand how
he got the name SPEEDY when one
watches, or rather tries to watch
those lightning-like blows which he
threw at Cain, when he caught him.
Dado did not move about the ring
with surprising speed but when he
uncorked either right or left it was
Ike spring let loose. The bout op-
ened in a manner surprising to the
fans. Both boys circled about each

intention of allowing his opponent to
get at him. Toward the end of the
round Dado caught Cain a hard clin
on the jaw and he went down for
the count of eight. 1t looked as if
the fight were over then and there.
but Cain weathered the round. Dado
