broke now, but he isn't rich man
by any standards. The disappear
ance Of his hard-earned wealth
doesn't cause Henry too much men,
tai anguish. He remembers cheer
fully how his IikabIe ex-manager,
the late Eddie Meade, managed to
mess up their finances following ev-
cry big bout.
Henry remembers that when the
time came to split the purses,
Meade always came up with bril-
liant idea for doubling their money.
The schemes always failed.
Gene Kessler, a Chicago sports
writer, tells Of some Of Meade's get
rich-quick ideas:
There was the movie, Keep
Punching In which Henry was star
actor, co-director and financial
angel. All Henry got for his bank
roll in that venture was a few souve-
Mrs and still-life photos of himself
There was the fash-front chop suey
joint in Los Angeles which packed
in customers but, strangely, showed
no profit. In fact, 1t kept Henry
broke feeding the good citizens of
Los Angeles from his fight purses
until sheriff gracefully closed the
DOORS"
Financial Venture
But Meade's greatest financial
ventures had to do with the inn
provement Of the breed. He was
known to have invested an entire
fight purse on one discouraged nag
which ended up Just where every
one else expected him to.
Armstrong retired in 1910 after
absorbing quite a beating from
Fritzie Zivic. He took a terrible
pounding in that fight. His eyes
were hammered into bloody, brutal
messes. And when he retired he had
only small bank balance to show
for his great earnings.
The story goes that when Henry
retired, Meade took the last of his
earnings and bought race horse. II
wasn't the best race horse in the
world, but one day he won a IS, 900
stake at Belmont. II was the first
big money Meade had ever collected
from the turf and the shock was too
severe. He collected his money, re-
turned to Broadway and died.
II wasn't love Of fighting that
brought Henry back to the ring. II
was necessity, coupled with the lure
Of war-fattened bankroIIs. And this
time he is going to take care Of his
own finances. The total gate for his
match with Perry crossed $50, 900
In Washington. Other good sized
gates have given him comfortable
chunk Of cash.
He could retire now with enough
to last him the rest Of his life, but
he's playing it safe and adding
something extra to a bankroll that
has had the unhappy experience of
fading all too rapidly.

~ Henry Armstrong always has
been the fighter for our money.
Pound for pound, Henry just about
tops the list Of all-time great boxers.
Look over the list of ring men and
find one who has done what he has.
The dark slugger set a record for
bowling over his opponents and in
so doing managed to win three
worlds boxing championships, hold
ing them simultaneously.
More than once the experts said
Henry was through. That has been
the cry for years. Henry again up
set the dope recently when he
knocked out Aaron Perry, q sensa-
tional conner, in Washington, d. @.
Yet Henry insists he always has
been pacifist who avoids argu-
ments and heartily dislikes fighting.
How is 1t, then, that man who
detests fighting can work UP so
much fury when he steps into the
ring?
