By the Associated Press. EW YORK, October 2—The jun- for lightweight championship doesn’t mean much to the fistic world in general, but Kid | Checeolate evidently prizes it. The Cuban won the synthetic 130- | pound crown by stopping Benny Bass in Philadelphia several months ago. Last night, with the title at stake, he dis- posed of Joe Scalfaro, hard-hitting Har- lem boy, in 39 seconds cf the first rcund at the Queensboro Stadium. The sudden ending of the contest pro- voked considerable discuss:on among the experts, many of whom thought Scal- faro was in shape to continue. Joe, who held Chocolate to a draw in their first meeting late in 1928, went down in the first flurry of punching and came up, groggy but full cf fight, at the ccunt of eight. He was reagy and eager to continue, but the referce, Kid Otto, wavesl him to his corn | Scalfaro protested vigorously and tried to get at Chccolate and eventualiy swung a few times at the champion be- fore his handlers could get him to hi dressing room.

The boys probably were all steamed up over the prospect of hitting 700 soon. Walk in. There was the usual sight—half a dozen bowlers resting tired dogs and exercising the lungs, but_not a word was_spoken about the 697 score. Joe McGolrick_was leading an_argument about the District League schedule! PTER the National Pale Drys had established a new Ceniral-South Atlantic team game record with 698 the previous night, those in Bill Wood's_office apparently thought no more of that 697 game than a blown spare.
