Packey McFarland. boxer and ring general extraordinary, is not going back into the game.

However, he spoke without the consent of Packey's manager. "My real manager has vetoed the come-back thing." is the announcement from the McFarland chicken farm near Jollet today. "She says we have enough at home to keep me busy without boxing again." Which, say those who know Mrs. Packey. is sufficient proof that McFarland's days in the ring are over. Painful Coughs Helieved.
