IN HONOR of a time-worn
cliche, pick up the Sports
Rilustrated swimsuit edition

Amid the well-tanned and
well-toned madels filling out 42
pages of the 196 page issue is at
remarkable story about a long-
ago Irish boxer. Well. more
specifically, about his arm.

Canadian writer Allen Abel
tells the tale of frishman Dan
Donnelly and his arm in a story
titled “Donnelly’s Arm”.

The bare-fisted pugilist died
in 1820 (at the age of 32), but his
arm lives on, predominantly dis-
played in a trophy case of the
Hideout Olde Worid Pub in
County Kildare.

Abel's entertaining = yarn
unravels the storied history of
how Donnelly's arm ended up
next to the Guinness taps in an

Irish watering hole,
