Roy Brien, complete with gloves, was looking businesslike showing Barney Campbell how to "pick 'em off" when "Smad" sidled up, pencil poised. "The Tournament team's prospects" we cried, and "You shall know all" quoth he, surveying with satisfaction the tired bodies of his perspiring trainees. "Of last year's team O'Conner, Edgley and Armour, the prides of my heart, have all developed a mysterious malady, known as "Boxers' Nose." Meek and Edwards have retired, like Gene Tunney, to their books. Campbell and Barnes are again starters and I expect them both to finish on their feet, Campbell to win. Of newcomers, Walsh will win, while Bowling, Moore, Mander and Millar are good men and true. But put on the gloves and let me try you out!" But "Smad" alas, was not heroic.
