Matte Brown, Washington heavy
weight, is a smart and competent
ringman and the 1900 fans at
the American Legion Arena were
quite satisfied with his work
against Art Huttick, of New York.
in the feature bouL but they were
delirious over Steve Dudas, New
York heavyweight two-tisted
TINT tosser, who smashed Wild
Bill Mathews, Baltimore veteran,
to the canvas in two red-hot
heats.
Dudas. wasting no time in fid-
ding around, crowded Mathews
around the ring from the bell,
weaving through the Baltimorean'S
none-too-gentle punches to land a
vicious right uppercut which
buckled Mathews knees. There
after it was just a matter of time.
A left hook dropped Mathews
for an eight count, and then left
and right chops dropped him for
three and another furry OF
solidly driven left and right hooks
to the stomach and head. ending
with a right uppercut to the chin,
had the veteran stretched out
helplessly on the bottom rope, but
the gong rang as the referee
tolled six.
Storms Out Of Corner
Mathews stormed out like a
whirlwind for the second round,
smashing Dudas with potent right
and left swings, but the New
Yorker just grinned grinly and
waited for the storm to abate.
When it did he stepped in with
terrific body blows and as Mathews
guard came down clipped
him on the jaw with a left swing
for an eight count. Mathews,
dazed and badly beaten, staggered
courageously to his feet only to
fall sprawling at full length under
a shower of terrible smashes,
whereupon the referee halted the
bout after 1 minute and seconds
Of the round.
Matte Brown went about batter
ing the younger and less expert
enced but tough and game Huttick
in a matter-of-fact, methodical
manner. He spent the first two
rounds trying to find out what
the youngster had and how much
Of it, contenting himself with
ducking, blocking or rolling with
Arts punches and pounding his
kidneys with a right chop.
Buckles Down to Work
Apparently satisfied with what
he found out, Brown buckled down
to his task Of pounding out a
clear-cut margin over Huttick,
using a wide variety of punches
which found every part of Hut
ticks anatomy.
When far off Brown would
catch the youngster with a sting
ing left hook or swing, and in
close he would drive in short, hard
JoltS to the heart, chest, kidneys
and chin. In the latter rounds he
used right uppercuts and hooks
with telling effects.
Huttick was in trouble during
most Of the last seven rounds. He
was down for a two count in the
sixth from a right swing, but
though Brown punched him all
around the ring with solid clouts
he kept his feet and toward the
end of the round he Jared Brown
with a left hook. Huttick was
again on a verge of k. o. in the
seventh, but came back with
right swing which drove Brown
to one knee, though he half
slipped on wet spot.
Three four FOUNDERS provided a
variety Of thrills.
InglOrious Win
Jackie Donnolly, U. S. N. light
weight, won by a knockout after
2 minutes and 20 seconds of the
second round over Pat Sullivan, of
Washington. but there wasn't much
glory to it, for he had fouled
Sullivan badly in the first round,
and Sullivan never recovered from
the low blow.
Sammy Alfino, Cuban welter,
won over Steve Lokasik, Naval Air
Station, when Lokasik dislocated
his shoulder during an exchange
in the second round. Alfino won
the admiration Of the crowd when
he refused to hit Lokasik as he
writhed in pain in midring.
Earl Dunlap, of Washington, and
Bobby Jones. of Fort Humphreys,
fought to draw in a wild swing.
