The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-11-24

The edge on Dolan's work was dulled considerably by the local boys lack of fighting and the fact that he dropped his guard as the final bell sounded after Carlton had started Q punch which found its mark on Dolan's chin and deposit- ed him on the canvas in sitting position. However, Eddie did a thorough but listless job of out pointing his able opponent, a vet eran of the ring wars since 1929 and quite a puncher in his own right. Dolan's right hand lead, plus a steady stream of left-hand shots to the stomach and face after which he would be tied up like most of your money. His lack of aggressiveness will soon kill any box office popularity Dolan might have, for the fact that he is a left handler has already handicapped
 him from that angle, due to lack of classy opponents, most of whom shy away from the "go.od' South- paws.
 Some Seeking!
 As expected, the return bout be- tween Eddie Carr, local negro light and Tommy Walsh of New York furnished the "kick" to the card, Walsh winding up with a sudden knockdown dur ing the last round, which would have been knockout nine times out of ten, with any fighter In front of him a whit less game than the courageous Carr. Completely bewildered and glassy-eyed, Carr got on his feet at the count or nine, staggered around the ring with Walsh after him taking his best shots, but the New Yorker, who punches plenty heavy, could not score another knockdoWn much less g. clean k.o. which Is not to ms discredit, for he tried for the Kill with everything he had but Carr stuck it out to the finish and lost the bout by one point margln' having been the winner going into the final heat. For seven or the eight rounds, Walsh could not Keep Carrs pile-driving body blows away from his middle, though ne outboxed his opponent throughout' and scored now and then with sol. id smacks to the head, but not oIt- en enough to take a point lead TOT it was Carr that made the hght and Walsh that did the counter punching. The boys will propaoly get together again in a month TOT eSh has won a decision over the other and both bouts have been sizzlers, Last night there was a half pound difference in the
 weights, Carr scaling 172hs | Short But Sure
 | Jules Sombathy of Bridgeport, a rough, tough young man in any SIX round bout had little chance to do
 his stuff as Joe Vignai showered him with as varied a collection or hooks, jabs, clouts, punches ana uppercuts as he has walked into Tor many a year, with the inevitable result that Jules draped the can- vas as early as 1880 in the second
 round at the finish of a thorough
 "going over." Vignali fought bet
 ter than at any time in the past two years, brief though the eXhlbl- ton of punching power was, for It would have taken lion hearted | lightweight as good as h1mself to stand up before him last evening. Vignali is one of the best club | fighters in the business at this | writing.
 Good Start
