The Star Bout

The two principals, Harry Sullivan, the hero, and Frank Dickson, "Kid Spangles," do a remarkably realistic three-round "go" in the ring scene. Perhaps their prize fight is a bit too acrobatic to be actually true to life, but for dramatic purposes it is a highly thrilling affair.
Even while the mechanical portions of the plot are being developed the stage action carries interest of its own.
One of the most pretentious if not actually the largest turn that has played in a 10, 20 and 30 cent house.
