Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Old Opponents Meet Again. DESCRIPTION: Jack Doyle (6 foot five and nearly twenty stone in weight) met Eddie Phillips in a modern catch-as-catch-can duel at Harringay. SHOTLIST: Cut story - KS. Both walk across ring and shake. Various shots of Jack Doyle & Eddie Phillips wrestling, complete farce. Phillips begins to punch his opponent, referee & tempers get frayed. Shots of same taken from various angles. Phillips manager & other civilians enter ring & start trying to separate them. Quite a comedy. Cut-ins of audience.
