Irish Eddie Dolan, the local boy who had to make good out of town showed nearly 1900 paid patrons of the manly art of self defense why many of the best welterweights in the country want no part of him" The exhibition took place last night at Buckingham hall in which Dolan boxed rings around Jimmy Bell young, hard-hitting New Haven Me- gro, to easily win the decision of Referee Frank Portelle. It was a case of just about what was ex- pected of Dolan, for Bell, hard-hit- ter though he is, could not "tag" the ever-moving Dolan enough to make a ripple in his unorthodox, left handed, bobbing, weaving defense.
 Nice Ring Work
 It was something different" to see boxing at its best and though little damage was in the way of slugging, many of the Old Timers present were ticK1ed to the proverb- ial shade of pink to see how easily Dolan warded off the consistent rushes and swings of the anxious but inexperienced Bell. In the final round, Bell reached Dolan with two solid smashes to the jaw, which the local lad shook off and then came back to box Bell dizzy and win "go- ing away" Dolan scaled 142, Bell 143 and little.
 Once again Benny Cartegena of New York put Tommy Ciarlo on the floor, and this time Ciarlo did not come back to stop him as he did two weeks ago. AS matter of fact, only Ciarlo's strong finish in the sixth round earned him a draw decision, though he took the first couple of rounds and then was knocked down in the third for a nine count. Cartegena also had an edge in the fourth and fifth, when Ciarlo seemed to tire rapidly, but his comeback in the sixth prevented defeat.

 When Lefty asks me would write this column I ses, of course, Lefty, I ses, because have many good ideas but especially about bowling. Bowling is my forty-that's s French for what your good at. Of course I play setback and stud poker but I like bowling better be- cause it is more exercize.
 Many people are curious to know what has happened to the Fuses. The answer is that it is too tough for one man to carry a hole team. I do my best.
 Now what I think we should do is cut down on prizes and have a real good feed at our banquet. Plenty of chow say I. We wait so long before we scoff that we should have plenty of everything and all of it good.
 Besides we have a lot of little girls in our league, Rita Shea, Ruth Bowen, Nina Birs, Helen Roberts and Ange Mambruno. Good food should help them grow. That is why we should have plenty at the ban quet.

We got eight more weeks to bowl and I would like to see a strong sentiment develop for an elaborate banquet, for from the looks ot things all I will get out of this league, anyway, is a feed.
 Along Putnam street am known as w. w. Knight. As proof of my skill I give the following personal: Peg Dunn's nephew who has spent the past twenty years in Siberia was in town visiting last week. Alice Benson's ditto will also be on tap in the near future. What about the buck, girls?

Dartmouth Track Coach Seeks Stars

Hanover, N. H., March 1-(UP)- Track coach Harry Hillman today awaited signed entries from Charles (Chuck) Tenske, Olympian John Woodruff, John Borican and Jim Herbert for the third Dartmouth in- vitation track meet March IA.
 Hillman, who announced yester- day that he had sent invitations to the quartet, said he hoped Fenske would attempt to shatter the world indoor mile record of 4 minues 4 A. 10 seconds set by Glenn Cunning ham here in 1888.
 He planned to match Negro rivals Woodruff and Borican at 800 meters and 880 yards. Borican set records of 1:49.2 for the metric distance and 1:498 for the half mile here last year. Herbert probably will attempt a Lew mark in the quarter mile.

ball' and is now finishing a third book on the game which is as yet untitled. Two motion pictures have been made on the Holman type of play.
 Holman played professionally until 1883, touring with the Original Gel tics for eight years.
 c. c. N. Y. CAGERS HAVE TO BE SCHOLARS TOO
 The Celtics did much missionary work. Youngsters saw and rnimicked them. The Celtics had much to show the peagreens. ... Dutch Dehnert, originator of the pivot, Johnny Beckman, Pete Barry and Joe Lap chick.
 Holman perhaps gets l ess for teaching basketball than any other major coach.
 And there is no proselytism or subsidizing at City College, where students have to have an average of 80 and where star forward gets no breaks from the professors. Yet Holman's c. 0. N. Y. teams have had four seasons in which they lost only one engagement.
 From 1881 to 1884 they bagged 43 of 46. After running up record of being undefeated on the home court for 43 consecutive games, the Beavers lost to Westminster College, 28-24. They then went on to cop % straight in their own backyard be- fore being stopped by St. Francis last season, 26-24.
 In 20 years of the toughest com petition, Holman's teams have won 230 games against 61 defeats, for a grand average of .79l.
 Basketball is the most profitable City College sport. The proceeds from it in recent years have en- abled the college to maintain com- plete athletic program.
 Nat Holman's hobby is sculptur- ing.
 Someone ought to do a statue of him for what he has done for City College and basketball in general.
