Synopsis
An early sports drama with boys scrapping and learning to box, and close-ups of nostril-flaring and ear-wiggling. Likely the first reel of a six-reel feature, possibly a condensed print from an early rental library; Gertrude Howard and George West appear. The intertitles contain a homophobic slur.
