STEELE SLUCS OUT DECISION
 OVER CRAVEN
Local Boy Makes Good in Comeback in Great Card;
 Wiley and AIberts Draw

A program of amateur boxing that will take it's place in state ring an. nals as one of the greatest in record for slam-bang fighting was looked upon by delighted crowd of more than 1000 fans last night at Buck. ingham Hall as the second recent effort of the Yankee Division Vet erans' Association. Joe Mobile ol Steele, as he is billed for the ring lived up to expectations by wallop- ing Johnny Craven of Manchester about the ring long and harc enough to earn an unquestionablt decision of Referee Louis Kid Kap- Ian, though he came out of the fray with a closed optic, the result of ar accidental head butt in the fina round. Craven was on the floor nc less than threet imes, as 8 result of whistling left-hand shots to the jaw and head.
 Even Stephen
 Spec Wiley of Union City and Pete Alberts of Oakville NDroved the exception to the rule of the ring that rated return bouts never as good as the original, if that hat been great fight. Wiley and AL berts whaled away at each other in such a fashion that the customers were screaming with glee, both lads winding up all eveN on a draw decision, which was unanimously popular.
 Joe Triano, the ex-Naugatuck footballer looked like a fine boxing problem for his handlers as he stop ped ele everything Adam Cohen in the third round of sizzling slam -bang affair. Frankie Buff of the South End punched out 8 de- cision over Butch De Sterko of Wil- limantic, who was helpless against the boxing ability of his opponent. Paul Kelley of Willimantic got a draw with Sam Vannie of New Ha- ven after flooring Vannie in the opening round, the Elm City boy coming back strong in the second and third rounds to earn an even break.
 MUhhhk AUUAGW NWWW
 Emil Etters of this city was dis- qualified after two or three knock downs by Jackie Reed of New Ha- ven, the local lad doing little or no fighting after the first minute of exchange. Nat Kolin of New York lost a tough decision to Tom- my Brouillard, after dropping Brou- illard in the second round and out- boxing him most of the way. Kolin looked like @ sure winner, though Brouillard's body-punching did plenty of damage.
 Paul Gagnon of Waterbury looked good in winning from Young War ren Meriden, the local boys boxing ability and right crosses being too much for his opponent, who was linning enough, but lacking in abil- ity. Sam Maltempo of Willimantic came back strong in the last two rounds to win Q close nod from Louis Randolfo of New Haven in a slugfest that was humdinger while Dick Turcotte, the Leaverworth High school boy, pulled Q "Joe Louis" by fiattening Al Rosetto m the opening round with @ sharp left hook to the chin.

St. Patrjck:S BO1OIing Notes

tonsorial expert got all cut up some time ago and left Eitzy flat because of Fitzy's inability to get 0 full team. Which is not bad reason. There Is nothing 50 disgusting as bowling with only three men. Titz- gerald, Brooklyn's most expert heck Ter, certainly did not help the Ear Der" bowling at all with his con- stant heckling and chatter. At any rate there is now Q full team and that's oil that Is necessary. Now let's see you boys 90 to town.
 Did you know that Barrett took three games from Willie Carroll and that is news. Willie was quit burned around the edges when Frank "Shy" Debiase failed to put in an appearance. This coupled with the fact that there were no nlaideils to bother Gillis and Geboges were the factors which accounted for the upset. Nice going James.
 Among the spectators we noticed the two sons of John Delaney and also the two sons of Tommy Ed- wards. Evidently the youngsters did not get many pointers as Hardy's team was getting shellaced plenty. It's awful that the boys have to witt ness such bowling. Perhaps after Q few weeks ot instruction and coach- ing, may we suggest match game between Delaney and Sons and Ed. inondS and Sons. Or maybe just Sons versus Sons to sec who is the better teacher. If Hardy and Cipri. ano can be induced to bring their sons around; . father and son bowl ing league. After all some of you men are slowing down and we need new material.
 And don't forget next Sunday, the 12th. A 25 man match game with St. Johns of New Haven. The games will be rolled ct the St. Jo- seph's alleys in Waterbury ct 4:30 p. m. sharp. Refreshments will be served at the Lyceum immediately after the games. See you all there and let's hope for some big scores and Q good time.
 Special Notice
 St. patrick's pinlnen will engage the team representing St. Johns church of New Haven in . special match game to be rolled ct st. Jo- seph'S drives on Sunday afternoon, beginning at 4:30 o'clock. The match will be the opening of Q home and home series and twenty-ilve bowl- CTS will participate as representa- tiveg of each league. Following the games; the participants will adjourn to the Lycelirn where there will be 2 program, of entertainment and re- Treatments.

Tn the terrific battle for second place Sid Dunphy Tired Men" took two games from Higgiston's Lucky shots". Tn the first game Higgy took over Our Fran" Bares by S6 pins to win his one and only game by four pins. This wek saw the addition of Barney Wrong Style" Smith to Dunphy's team; and he neds no introduction to the league, having bowled with us last year. He did not seem to have any luck on his open- ing night, getting only 2So pins. Maybe it's his unorthodox system of bowling.
 And here he is again. None other than Eddie Loftus, who moved Into 8 three-way tic for second place when he took the team of Rev. Wirkus to the cleaners for three games. Now the Blonde Demon" is tied for second honors with Dun- phy and Higgiston. It is really too bad that Major" Driscoll is so far in the van. Not counting first place the league is red hot; the last place team being only l2 games out of second place. As we have said before Hook out for Loftus." The cidentaliy he bowls Dunphy next week, which should be the battle of the second round; both bowling and noisemaking. Imagine Butch" Dc. vito, Sid Dunphy, Lawlor and .Bares whooping 1t up.
 Of course, Major Driscoll again won two games. This time from Fitzgerald. A few of the boys would like to know what happened to the skates that were on those shoes, Mike; that's before they became bowling shoes.
 "Butch, Director of Sports" De- vito, tine hardest working bowler in town again hit 3le, which is getting too regular. Tho Director" got . double strike in the second game which cost him some refreshments for "Yanor Carroll and "Brony' Christian. He went into immediate seclusion after his sensational double hit and coIld not be reached for Q statement. He was quoted as saying that they were clean hits, good clean hits. bl~
 On Their GaEneN
 Have you seen the way Tom "Tanglefoot" Lawlor has been hit- fling them since his return from his two weeks vacation? And the same goes for Sid "zip' 'Runphy since he got that big load of his mind.
 Among our new men. "Whitey' Thorell getting 2e0---the same for Barney Snith-"Ole Serious" Har- vey netting 300 sticks; Primo Jamele 32o; "Danil" Manseau 33i sauIkus 277; "Ozzie" Andrews 2e7, We have heard that "Whitey's" ard AOzzi6's' briliian pinning cost them . steak dinner, or was 1t just "Ah- Beets." We will attempt to inter- view the winners. .s,F ( "Jaspef" Devine took "stub' Hardy for 2 games. Joe Lefty Courtney had . 12b game which eSid- Cd with . i've box. ''Husinsss before pleasure" Herman managed to get around for the last game. His i0a pins did not help 1zafdy's Co any extent. We must admire the ,b0wlerl who come from all other parts oi the city every Monday night and or time. Of course we realize how she numbers game affects the HroCkiyr boys. Fty
