In fact, if ‘all his nicknames were laid end to end they would reach as far as—well, as far as his flattened opponents would reach if they were laid end to end. Well, Henry is no Fordham-Pitts-burgh football player and he hasn't been doing all this work for nothing. It has finally won for him a fight with Mr. Peter Sarron, hairy-chested hurricane from Birm-

they just sort of lull a fellow to sleep. Henry Reads the Bible

Henry is not the perfect fighter. The perfect fighter is one who doesn't get hit and who doesn't miss. Henry misses—because he throws so many punches. And he gets hit—because he's willing to take one so that he can get in a lick or two himself. He fights with considerable ferocity, but outside the ring he's a mild, quiet citizen who really reads the Rible, wanted to be a doctor,
