The rinrsids spectators at box ing bouts are the ones who really -e The worth of their money. They hear the h.Ners talk while boxing, and noeu the knights of the padded m'.s spring some good stuff.
 A couple Of years ago a South Omaha srrapper named Tommy Bres- .a.aH and a Chicago lad named Tommy Gary me- in a nfteen-round hoa. -' S, Joseph. Mo. Both boys wor. fairly clever, but neither DOS, ses-cd a haymaker. Gary. however. Was able 10 whip a left 10 Bresna- .au.s ja" often enough and hard suoa1h 'o cause the Omaha boy =rea aHnoyauee.
 Hrg-naAau's manager finally lost patience with his protege
 Sop some of those. Tommy; stop some of them,' he yelled, as Gary was jabb.ng Bresnahan in the face.
 Hrosuahan rushed into a cHnch and he stopped milling long enough .o urn around and say 10 his man. .ser
 "Yaa d.n't see any of 'em gettin' uy do yuh?"

 Boys who would make good fight. or- are often ruined when just start ing ont by friends whom they select as managers. The managers either .ver.match rhem or have them in 1rh poor condition when they fight .a~ hey are unable to dc themselves justice. Frankie Conley. the sturdy little hitfer from Kcnosha. Wis. who held inc banfamweight champion .p for a short time. learned what harm a poor manager could do him
 One lime when he was first start ing em, Conley secured a match with Frankie White. then classy Chicago biffcr ConIey went to the r5'y where the fight was to be held several days before the date set for rHe mill A fight bug" there who had seen several encounters believed that he knew all about the fighting game. IIe got hold of Conley a le" hoTS after the little scrapper landed in the city, He made Con- ley believe thar he needed a man. ascr, and that he was the one most fjnoi for the place. Conley fool, ishly placed himself in the bugs" hands.
 The first thing the new manager did was TO go out and get a sparrin2 rartner for his fighter. He secured a regro weighing 1SO pounds. Cen. ley weighed just 115 pounds at this time. Two days before the fight he manager invited a few friends mp To see his protege work out. Al fer gymnasium work was over the big negro and the little Italian don- ned the gloves. And what that big negro didn't do to the little fellow wasn't much. He hammered Con- ley around for four rounds until the scrapper could hardly stand. He wasn't able to land on the negro he was too busy defending himself.
 When the bout, or rather slaugh- fer, was over. the manager strutted around like peacock.
 Great work for my boy he said to his friends T believe I'll let him do the same tomorrow"
 One of his friends happened to know little bit about boxing.
 You do and there won't be any fight the next day" he snorted. That boy is about dead right now!"
 Conley overheard the remark and as he was thinking along the same line, he discharged his manager on the spot. Then he rested all the next day and was able to win a de cision over White
