LOCAL LAD IS
T.K.O. WINNER IN
SIXTH ROUND
Pope Makes Single Squirt
Before 1000 Fans; Bell
Stops Marsh

New Haven, Dec. 7-Dashing Dick
Turcotte, the fighting Frenchman
from waterbury proved once and for
all that he is the ringmaSter Of
game George Pope, the chunky,
lion-hearted and left-handed mauler
from the silver City Of Meriden.
Tonight, at the Arena, Turcotte
had Pope on the floor so often that
George was taking on canvas COM
plexion. Six times in all, Pepe shit
the deck" with the ultimate result
that Referee George Proto of New
Haven finally stepped in to save
Pope from further punishment
The same Turcotte had even less
trouble with the same Pope last
summer, when the Meriden boy was
knocked out in two rounds at Wa
terbury. Later they met at New Ha-
ven and Turcotte won again, but
there was considerable sentiment
for a draw decision. Taking advan-
tage of the feeling among many
fans, because Pope gave Turcotte a
much better argument than before,
they were matched for third time,
with tonight's result.
In Good Shape
The winner, in fine fettle had just
completed week of advantageous
training at Stillman's gym in New
York City which "did him world
Of good" put him in prime condition
and sharpened his timing like clock
work. Aside from a slight Pope furry
in the fourth round there was little
doubt as to the ultimate outcome
The boys are welterweights, Pope
148, Turcotte las 1-2.
Another interesting bout from a
Waterbury angle was the knock
out" Of Doug Marsh OF Canada, the
boy who completely stopped Tur-
cotte's winning ways. 1t happened
in the very first round of his sched-
uled skier with Jimmy Bell, New
Haven negro, who dropped him twice
but Marsh missed the count OF
something for he was on his feet
ready to continue when he was told
by Referee Proto that 1t was too
late and he had been technically
knocked out.
Tommy Carlo of Waterbury Tough:
in an improved manner toward what
he had been showing and, as a re-
suit came through with foui
round nod over Francis Sharpe OF
New Rochelle, one of the states bet
ter semi-pro boys. Carlo scored
steadily, as his timing was much
better than in his last two bouts
The weights: Carlo, 142; Sharpe
141.
Though guilty of two fouls, Midget
Renault Of New Haven got away
with a one round knockout over
Johnny Devore of Bridgeport. Rem.
ault hit Devore while ne was getting
to his feet; and after knocking hin
down. hit him again while he wa.
on the canvas.
New Haven Bill Conklin, shift,
colored middleweigl1t, stopped
Springfield Billy Towne in the first
round.
