Rushing from hils corner in the sec- ond round Kaplan, apparently wish- ing to end the fight with a knockout, threw caution to the wind as he sgnt blow after blow into the body of De Marco. As the round progressed Kap- |lan became wild, which De - Marco ‘took advantage of by sending right jabs to the face and crossing over with a left to the jaw, Kaplan send- ing a wild right to the head lost his | balance and fell to the floor, In the third round Kaplan kept | boring in but was unable to land an effective punch, De aMrco's shiftiness enabled him to keep out of reach as| he poked and jabbed Kaplan with, ol straight left to the foce, De Marco opened up a deep cut on Kaplan's lp | and when the round ended the New | .

Sporting Writer: Dear Sir— Just a few remarks;in reference te Wop Manolian, who by the way is & native of New Britain, The - \qu has just returned from 8 trip up in the mountains and wantt two or three fights under his belt be« fore he hoxes Eddie Shevlin, and as: he is a great drawing card in your state, I would 1ke nothiing better than a shot at any boy in the country af 145-150 pounds. I would prefer ‘some boy of prominence as the Wop hat made his name known through Con. neeticut. If they think Mike Morley good enough to draw well for him, or Chick Brown or any one the cluk picks, it will be all right for us. Thy Wop is today one of the best booking prospects in the country, and ten months ago boxed a 10 round draw with Nate Goldman, the boy who jus beat Lbu Tendler in Philly. The Bos. ton promoters have been trying to gel & boy to box the Wop, but as soon ay they mention his name they all find some excuse to wriggle out.
