Several smoked cigarettes and made
themselves comfortable in other re-
spects. Gus Rubin and Billy New

kept the fighters from calling each
other names as they exchanged blows.
Right in the middle of the interest

through the ropes into the ring. One

ing, and not to hear speeches, stood
by in the gallery and began:
