Description | A Fair Knock Out by Bruce Bairnsfather |
Details |
'It is doubtful whether Old Bill really has the physique for a big contest. Last week, in the first of forty-five rounds, he was knocked out by a clerk in the Pay Department at Paris Plage, thus losing a purse of five francs.'
Bruce Bairnsfather's character, Old Bill, comes off worse in a boxing match.
