match between a lad from the

the best bout 1 ever saw.
There is considerable rivalry between
the two OUTFITS and we backed our man
to the tune OF $4,000 francs or about
$4,000 in real money. Some stunt for a
lone company but the lads are all good
sports and put their last penny on their
favorite.

the DAYS when we used to climb a rain
pipe TO get a slant at the bouts over
at the II A. A. or spend our pennies
