Brady US. Con1po Would Be One For Boxing 'sBook"

It's comparatively easy to become first or second president Of the Second Guessers' Association, so I thought I would dream up boxing match for Municipal Stadium that would "do" $25,0O0 for Promoter George Mulligan some fine evening before the summer is over. Having seen New Haven's sensational Eddie Compo, an 18 year old Hillhouse High school boy, spot the able Joey IannoH height and reach and then defeat him very easily in hard fight the other night, and knowing something of the all-around ring class of New York's Patrick Dennis Brady as exhibited in Hartford dur ing some of his 29 bouts in the In- surance City; I have no trouble in matching" the pair in main bout featherweight duel at $5 "tops" that would or should attract 10000 fans from Hartford and New Haven to say nothing of the Waterbury, Naug- atuck, Thomaston, Torrington, Mer- iden, Ansonia and other miscellan- eotls ticket trade that might like to see a fight that figures, on its merits to be "one for the boxing book.
 No one realizes more than the writer, how easy 1t is to make such a match "On paper. Getting the managers of Brady and COmpO to sign such a fight would be scIns- thing else again; but it's "natu'- al" if ever one was pushed into any promoters line of vision. Promoter MulligaIi is said to have a promise for Brady's services; which is just fine of the boys handlers would agree to box COmpO and the latter's handlers would agree to meet Brady. The ScOtch-Irish kid, 19 years of age has had 27 bouts, lost 2 and won 9 by knOckOuts.
 His last outing was against none other than the NBA featherweight champion, Sal Bartolo, who got off the floor to outpoint the clever, speedy and hard-hitting Brady in Boston. Compo has yet to be defeat ed in Madison Square Garden or in New Haven; against rugged opposi- ton, and both boys are the best to show on the Connecticut fistic hori- 5on since Willie Pep came up from the amateur ranks, beating every thing in sight, then proceeded to win 59 of SO pro fights, including the featherweight championship of the world, as far as New York is con- cerned; and number among his vic- tories, two wins, one very decisive over the aforementioned NBA worlds champ Sal Bartolo of Bos- ton.
 Both BEady and Compo have ring "class" to burn--fast, young fight CTS with excellent left hands and right hand punch; able to floor sl- most any foe with a left hook or right cross. Eventually, they will probably square off, for it's fistic and financial natural" for Connec- ticut that would tempt. every-pro- moter in Ee state if he thought he could get them together. And what better place from @ standpoint of seating capacity that our own Mun- icipal Stadium?
 Well, here 1t is Saturday again and as far as Pat Brady vs. Eddie Compo Is concerned-I can dream, can't l?

 The Silver City diamond com binat ton, managed by Jumping John Pillie. the excitable little man with boundless energy. will include two pitchers of statewide reputation as able fast and curve-ball special ists, but good :"stickers" as well, capable of getting Q hit when badly needed: which Is what most n1oundsnlen are unable to do.
