He's Jim- my Quigley of Philadelphia and points east. Comiskey has had a dozen fights’ and won all but one by knockouts. A chubby clubber named Shapson went four rounds with him. Pat is the lad some critics say punches harder than Joe Louis. He was such an immediate hit with the Manhattan fight faithful that sports writers began featuring his preliminary -four-rounders along with the main bouts. Most up- coming youngsters want no part of Patrick Edward Comiskey but Quigley would like a taste of him. { “I used to be a grave-digger and !T'm gonna dig a grave for Comis- ey,” Jimmy pipes. ‘Comiskey may be Irish but the ‘name sounds Polish to me,” cracl Quigley, who was born on Done- gal, Ireland. ; Tulgencio” AP Feature Service Sports Writer | has never set himself to put over a real punch.
