Hammering Henry Armstrong
contemplated meeting Little Beau
Jack OF Augusta In a ten.round bout
at Madison Square Garden here
Jan. %.
gu see, Lii Henry was a great
tighter once-but that didn't stop
him from being nice to a kid. Arm.
strong was riding on top OF the fs-
tic world back IN 1889. He had won
the worlds feather, light and well
terweight titles. and was a very
big citizen indeed.
But that didn't stop him from
walking over, one afternoon IN the
sym, and complimenting little,
hustling colored boy he didn't
know. He told the kid TO keep
punching and he, too, would wind Up
champion.
The unknown Kid was Beau Jack.
the ex-5ootbiack Of the Augusta
Colt Club, who only recently scored
two sensational knockouts at the
Garden to become the most popular
boN-ottice attraction OF the war
torn boxing winter.
Believe it or not, but Chick
Wergeles. the Beau's manager, said
today this incident supplied one Of
the objections he had 70 overcome
to complete negotiations for the
Jan, % bout.
The fight, announced yesterday
by Promoter Mike Jacobs. ended

strong's first start here since Jan
uary, 1871. He was stopped that
night by Fritzie Ziyic in a bloody
but futile attempt to win back his
worlds li7 pound title, the last of
the triple crowns he relinquished.
They said Henry was through,
that his eyes were had and that TO
continue fighting might cause him
TO 30 blind. So the little perpetual
motion machine slowed dowE-for
about a year.
Then it started TO rumble again
and Armstrong, his manager, Eddie
Mead having passed on, and
pressed for cash. decided TO try
comeback. Wisely he underwent an
eye operation for the removal OF
scar tissue and took a good rest
before starting on the long road,
