Three sides are offered after Al Jolson punched Walter Winchell at the Hollywood American Legion Stadium in 1933. The movie referred to and causing the incident was Broadway Thru a Keyhole (1933).
Jolson is credited as author of the left-hand column, Winchell wrote the right-hand column, and the two columns in between appear to be a neutral recounting of the incident from a syndicated news outlet.
The bottom couple of lines are cut off in the left columns, but there's enough there to get the idea. I clipped this one from the Syracuse American, 23 July 1933.
