much about boxing, but the trainament's the Line brought down,
and I'm a doctor and everybody they all say Pancho
will be a world champion.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
You really just because it's funny.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
I never heard of him.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
It's not funny. It would be funny if you had
heard of him. He's had ten fights, won everyone by
a knockout. But don't you see, mis the Line just
keeps him under wrap. All his fights were held in secret.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
SA I don't yet it sure, So.

When mister Line marches him in New York, he'll be
absolutely unknown. He's trying to get him matched up against
top boys, and whoever this Pancho fight, mister Lion will
be able to get simply wonderful odds.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
See I'm beginning to but I'll see how you figure
to make any money out of this?

bed against him. He takes Pancho and he'll give big
odds because he's so sure of Pancho. Pancho has agreed

Speaker 3 (05:36):
How can you lose?

the girl to saw that and watched the hitch.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Well, even with all my savings, I couldn't win enough
to pay off Pancho.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
How wonderful? Yes, and b especially for me, Harry lyone.
I always find it refreshing to relieve a rich sector
of money. Wit makes he's gonna steal from someone else.
Jenny had done well. She got to stand there, so
it was a cuba. Within the forty eight hours, she promised,
the hook was baited. Poor fish was about to buy.

undertake to win that seventy.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Five dollars back from you.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
It's important to handle a chump with artistic appreciation. Limousines
country estates expensive, but for me, I regardlessly legitimate business deductions.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I wanted to make sure this chump fierce was.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Impressed, even that a half dozen peals on it or
dressed up to the nines pretending to be my weekend guests.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Charming people, all of them really very capable of giving my.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Chump a good time, flattering him, making him feel nice
and secure. First I've had him munch and I go
to Vana Sagard and we went forristrol, our whole party,
and I let them casually down to especially outfitted training quarters.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Try general, Is that why you were asking me if
I went to past five Land?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
What are you think of him as fast? Isn't he

Speaker 3 (08:50):
No, he's he's finding the first time next Thursday. You've
heard of kid Bert, I understand what's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I've gotten him to come over and go a few
rounds with young Francho. I'm making up a purse for
the winner.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
And you've never got a fight? Yeah, how do you
know your boy hasn't got a class jo? I don't feers.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
That's what I hope to find out next Thursday.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Harry off the kid Birks record and seeing that young
Pantro has never had a fight. I hate to do it,
but I might take some of your money away from
you to friendly wager'.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
A slime general. You'll see what is the odds work for?
Speaker 7 (09:20):
Maybe I could give you a chance to win back
your seventy five dollars.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
Mister live, who the murder? Excuse me? And that's Fears.
I'm really sorry. I shouldn't be laughing. I was just
amused at the idea, that's all idea. What well, don't
you see?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I was planning to make up the first of ten
thousand dollars on the fight, any side bets that I
could place on Panchoid. I want to make sure that
my wedding can come of the birds, don't you see
seventy five.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
I might possibly be able to better stake that will
interest you. Oh, that'll be fine, It's fierce fine.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Nothing better calculated to make it something fish Nothing better
calculated like a fish leap for the book than the
twitch the betaway as though he maybe isn't going to
get a chance to grab it. I was hoping PiS's
deck was hot up his collar as I walked away
after giving him that little brush. I wanted to give
him a chance to talk to Jenny without anybody else around.
Sure enough, I could see him moving over to each side.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Well, what do you think, Stan, he's had th Spancho's
first fight coming up. Oh he always tells people that,
didn't you see.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
That's the way they like to bet a lot more
money on him. That's the kind of a man he is.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
That's the reason I hate him so much. I see
what you doing? Well, say here he comes?
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Who Oh, Pancho, come a stop. Pancho had a good workout.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
He was fine. I can fish, I ever.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Feel now, don't forget Pancho third round. That's our agreement.
What you say, Oh, don't worry about Sam.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
He's my partner in the deal. Is he safe?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Oh sure, say to the bank Sam, shake hands with Pancho.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
This is Senor peers about then he takes too many
people find out. Now, don't worry.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Punch as I said, it was all right, sound now
that's our bottom.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Okay, but it's not I feel it of I was
going it with you. Jenny looks good to me. Oh
wonderfu on that lime. He got me a little sore.
I'm gonna show him. I'll take him for plenty.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
What do you mean?
Speaker 7 (11:20):
I'll have to convert some bonds and maybe borrow a
few bucks, but I think I can work it so
that I.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Can put my hands on forty five thousand dollars. Oh
scare yeah, good odds say? And a wrong wheel tree.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Oh if it's so much, I can't even think of it.
Oh damn, I just want to kiss you.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Okay with me, honey?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Can you get those bonds or whatever they are converted
in time to the fight.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
That's the next Thursday, you think, So I should be
able to get a draft on my bank from one
of the banks here.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
In Havana, and my thousands.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You still have it?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Not safe?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Don't you worry about?
Speaker 7 (11:47):
You can feel like that, honey, But next Thursday, you'll
be an easiest street in the biggest house in the block.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
You see what you get just by being a little rude.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I figured this jump is good for thirty thousand, and
now he's begging to give me forty five. And could
have told him that the bank of event it would
be efficient, unfortunately efficient for him by Thursday afternoon, stand Pierce,
my fine fat little Cleveland insurance.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
There has forty six.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Thousand dollar bills in his pocket, one of them mine
that I give him to Jenny to gift to him,
and the rest of them his, which would end up
in my pocket, for he thought that.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Was Orson Wells returns.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
In just a moment, there's the third man, and now
(13:33):
Orson Wells as the third man continues with it's a knockout.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
So it's dinner time, dinner time, and over the brandy.
Speaker 2 (13:57):

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Well general five to one, then I'll tell you one.

Can I get any action from you?
Speaker 6 (14:07):

Wow, Well, just just just give you twenty five to
Jenny here, and he's my end.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
I'll give you ten to one. I'll take those hogs

Speaker 2 (14:45):

come on, no, I'm on, old man.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
I'm sure everyone here trust you just just about. Can
I get you more action? If not?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
That's just one more thing I want to say before
we all go.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
To the ring.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Maybe Jefferson friends, you all understand that the trust this
fight is private, not being conducted under any boxing commission
rules for that reason, it's a little irregular. As a
matter of fact, our Cuban police friends would quite possibly
feel that it's legal.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
You wont understand, General, That's why I couldn't take your check.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Well, friends, I presume I can trust you not to
mention that the entertainment was held out here. Yes, to
protect the licenses and the fighters and the managers involved.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
I have your assurance. Then that's dog all fight's about
to start.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Piers got those stakes, all right, let's go. Sheer delight
to watch peers scary as actual you ever watched the
manager no is guilty trying to act innocent? Brothers are
(15:54):
the first time Pierce has ever tried neck that down
through the garden where the ring was set up. There
were perhaps three dozens of us, fifty all together coming
the train is the seconds the reperee, and all of them,
of course ian on.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
My little scheme except just one. It's to stand Piers.
Fortunately they went all on my payroll. They were friends.
Camber's confidence man.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
The girl's anxious to do me a favorite, anxious to
to watch the fun fight is the ring now repert
he's talking and I have to watch them.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
But I have to watch Peers too. First round fighters
pretending just to feel each other out.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Plants is putting on a show of fancy. What work,
of course the two fighters I've hired, but on a
good show.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's artistic.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
We can't have Fiers getting worried about my rod when
fact he needs to dive for pears. I know just
what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
He's beeaking how long around takes three minutes, multiplying that
by the number of round Fantses agreed to go before
he pretends to be knocked out, adding the minute between rounds.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
He's thinking in less than ten minutes, he'll be collecting
in bed ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
That's because Francher went down on his knees, burke rady
clipt and look look to that. Peers is just as
happy he didn't bet on what round Pantcher lives in.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
There, goes s Fancher again on the canvas.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
When he got he's up at five.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Piers looks worse than Fancier. Does you know Pierce is
stealing his feet, making sure the central is still. They're
looking around furtively thinking a really trusty, silly smile on
his face. I'll just speak to him and see what
he says, well, how about it, Fierce enjoying the fight.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Sure what just looks I don't worry about you time
ship fish, he'll be all right.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
I had to go again.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Time show ups as though he's got to cut open
up under his eye. They probably want another ten dollars
from me that she show pretty.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Boy good lucks of fat.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Look at Fierce, just to look at Fierce now that
he's adding up his property forty six thousand and ten
to one and four hundred and sixty thousands, ten thousand Potanchio.
He's four hundred fifty thousand split two ways with Jennimy
six queer GROSSI two hundred and twenty five.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Thousands back of rus Nor.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Fan goes down again, and Burg's got a pretty right
hand at that just reaches out.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
And down goes oh Fan shoe on him.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
And put a poor at that time, I better get
more worried.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Looking here's might suspect something, Yeah, and looking at me
all right, watch his right, not y'all watch it right.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I hope I look second, if he is watching the
fighters again, fighters flanship, he's seen one of those powdered
pump fighters all flick and fluff.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
No real sock to him.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Burke could land him in one round fighter square rattle.
Pars is breathing hortter than either of the fighters, always
looking over at me.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Maybe maybe I'm better. You're many people to say it
still in the snes Oh hard least I know.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Now my boy doesn't have a glass job here, and
I just can't understand. Let's come over plant Shore tonight.
He seems sluggish, maybe he's overtrained.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Maybe she just seems sort of slow. This is rich
now Pears is worried. He's scared. Fan shoill make me
his fishes? Round three as is h it happened. Look
at his hand groping to.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Make sure he's still got that actual thinking as plain.
We can reach right out in gram two hundred twenty
five thousand.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Dollars, greedy boy, I'm far more restrained all I wanted.
You're forty five about so I say.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
More attention to fight lancers laughs in Burke's face, takes
a right across fancy back hands are down.
Speaker 3 (19:31):

Speaker 2 (19:31):
Franc's got his wide open there to like that. Now
they're right from Burke cats a punch on the side.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Of the head.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Branch of Ducks under dances.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
They pretend they don't understand. Peers he's done?
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Why Burke is down on his back, blood spreading out
of his mouth? Why that poly doctor should be in
the ring Patagon, silond bird?

Hurry, but I've got no money left. Here's your quick
before they say I've got the satchel, here's a hundred. Goodbye,
dam and Sam.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Let's hell roll on hurry.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
The most artistic aspect to this swindle.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
That the chump fled convinced he was in for real trouble, homicide, trouble,
completely forgetful.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
It's forty five thousand dollars. Yes, pretty wasn't. It's one
of the neatest jobs out ever pulled off. And as
soon as he was safely.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Off, my rented the estate I confeder it's gathered around
for the payoffs.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Good beating you carry? How did you like my act?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Oh you were great batch?
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Oh man Berth.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
The way you bit into that bladder of chicken blood,
I thought the blood.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Had never stopped coming out. Why is that, satchel? Come on,
we'll put up the profits. Now, where's Jenny. She's the
one who deserves the praise. The way she hooked that
for it is Jenny, Jenny going inside with something. Well,
I'll take your cut and give it to a later
hand me. That's satual.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Over.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
I think of the expression on that Pierce's puss. But
do you know how daddy? Hey, what's this rison?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
That seventh daughter was seventh daughter? That double crossing, no
sextuple crossing?
Speaker 5 (22:33):
Ry necked?
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Which Warren? Jenny Warren? She's run off with my money,
not your money, not your money. Might I've got enough
to pay you off every penny? It's the bet.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
She's absconded with one of the shootest schemes I'd ever hatched,
and she has to throw the queer in it.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Listen to her note, she says, And I'm leaving five
for your end, Harry.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
That'll be enough to pay for a long distance phone
call to tell me what you think of me.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I'll be in New York tonight, but after that, who
knows where I'll be. Love y.
Speaker 8 (23:19):
Everrylme returns in just a month. And now, Harry Lie,

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Thanks step Crosser, And you're crowding the pavement, And I'll
tell you a sucker is.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
A larcenous chump.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Maybe I said that before, but I think I forgot
to mention that there's an awful lot of us. I
promised my confederates if they'd get their expenses paid, But
after thinking that over for about thirty seconds, I figured
there was no use throwing good money after bad because
he meant leaving Cuba in a kind of a hurry.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
But after all, they should have known better. They should
have remembered the old saying line, doesn't pay in.

a number of other things, is also pretty generously loaded
with suckers.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
What my children is a sucker.

She was telling him the story I coached her in

kind he was ready to believe anything she told him.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
Here and said Jay hangings the line as a sinker,
especially to his secretary.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Ye June Lime, you said, that's the mamason, I should
have heard of it. Only if you work in Wall Street,
you least have just stick here. Why don't you quit
your job?
Speaker 6 (03:45):
That's what I wanna do.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
The only thing I wanna do is make some money
before I do.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Only I could just figure a way to do. Ah.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Well, I'm not sure that I Oh, I'm being silly
walk Oh.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I started to think I shouldn't.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Tell you about it, for I don't know why I shouldn't.
You don't know it's a Lime, after all, we won't
see him anyway. Besides, and you're nice.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
I like you.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
I should think I can trust him.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
If you heard your cam they got night in. Well.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
You see, mister Lion's a great sportsman. Loves to gamble
on the fights, the races, almost anything.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Might of fight me too.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Well anyway, so mister Lion's got this big power to
the place in Cuban near Havana, you know, mink Lion
swimming pool, tennis.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Court, the work and right on his estate.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
He is found that one of the works when a
Cuban is a wonderful boxing m So his name is
Prancho Cordorbus. He's really good at least. I don't know
much about boxing, but the trainament's the Line brought down,
and I'm a doctor and everybody they all say Pancho
will be a world champion.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
You really just because it's funny.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
I never heard of him.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
It's not funny. It would be funny if you had
heard of him. He's had ten fights, won everyone by
a knockout. But don't you see, mis the Line just
keeps him under wrap. All his fights were held in secret.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
SA I don't yet it sure, So.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
When mister Line marches him in New York, he'll be
absolutely unknown. He's trying to get him matched up against
top boys, and whoever this Pancho fight, mister Lion will
be able to get simply wonderful odds.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
See I'm beginning to but I'll see how you figure
to make any money out of this?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
How are you going to let me tell him? In secret?
Of course?
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Now mister Lymoy is trying to get his guests to
bed against him. He takes Pancho and he'll give big
odds because he's so sure of Pancho. Pancho has agreed
with me that he'll lose this next fight. If I
give him the word, he'll.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
What's the expression?
Speaker 6 (05:22):
Take that done?
Speaker 4 (05:23):
That's it for a price, mister Lyon has been giving
him a purse of five stout and every time he wins,
we agreed I give him twice that if he.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Loses, miss Lime. He gives good odds on Pancho.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Last time he was trying to find take his at
ten to one.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
How can you lose?
Speaker 5 (05:37):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Isn't it awful? That's awful. It's a smart steam for
the girl to saw that and watched the hitch.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Well, even with all my savings, I couldn't win enough
to pay off Pancho.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Besides, now you have got to have someone the near
betty propet exactly, sir. I guess I just have to
stick him a.
Speaker 6 (05:52):
Job for a while longer.

some of the capital for you?

at least.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Oh stand, how wonderful.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
How wonderful? Yes, and b especially for me, Harry lyone.
I always find it refreshing to relieve a rich sector
of money. Wit makes he's gonna steal from someone else.
Jenny had done well. She got to stand there, so
it was a cuba. Within the forty eight hours, she promised,
the hook was baited. Poor fish was about to buy.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Well.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Either you're commonly lucky. You serting me on an expert
on cock fights.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Just luck, mister lyon beginners. As a matter of.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
Fact, this is the first time I ever saw the
birds fight in my life.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
You don't say that's that's seventy five dollars you want
for me? There you are? What was your name again? Pier?
San Pier from Cleveland? Have many insurance.

To night peers, and President Chatty Media. Maybe I will
undertake to win that seventy.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Five dollars back from you.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
It's important to handle a chump with artistic appreciation. Limousines
country estates expensive, but for me, I regardlessly legitimate business deductions.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I wanted to make sure this chump fierce was.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Impressed, even that a half dozen peals on it or
dressed up to the nines pretending to be my weekend guests.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Charming people, all of them really very capable of giving my.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Chump a good time, flattering him, making him feel nice
and secure. First I've had him munch and I go
to Vana Sagard and we went forristrol, our whole party,
and I let them casually down to especially outfitted training quarters.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Try general, Is that why you were asking me if
I went to past five Land?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
What are you think of him as fast? Isn't he
I call him young francho. Of course, I don't know
there's any good and out here for a single Fightn't
I mean?
Speaker 3 (08:45):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
No, he looks so sure I have swarm.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
No, he's he's finding the first time next Thursday. You've
heard of kid Bert, I understand what's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I've gotten him to come over and go a few
rounds with young Francho. I'm making up a purse for
the winner.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
And you've never got a fight? Yeah, how do you
know your boy hasn't got a class jo? I don't feers.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
That's what I hope to find out next Thursday.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Harry off the kid Birks record and seeing that young
Pantro has never had a fight. I hate to do it,
but I might take some of your money away from
you to friendly wager'.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
A slime general. You'll see what is the odds work for?
Speaker 7 (09:20):
Maybe I could give you a chance to win back
your seventy five dollars.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
Mister live, who the murder? Excuse me? And that's Fears.
I'm really sorry. I shouldn't be laughing. I was just
amused at the idea, that's all idea. What well, don't
you see?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I was planning to make up the first of ten
thousand dollars on the fight, any side bets that I
could place on Panchoid. I want to make sure that
my wedding can come of the birds, don't you see
seventy five.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
I might possibly be able to better stake that will
interest you. Oh, that'll be fine, It's fierce fine.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Nothing better calculated to make it something fish Nothing better
calculated like a fish leap for the book than the
twitch the betaway as though he maybe isn't going to
get a chance to grab it. I was hoping PiS's
deck was hot up his collar as I walked away
after giving him that little brush. I wanted to give
him a chance to talk to Jenny without anybody else around.
Sure enough, I could see him moving over to each side.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Well, what do you think, Stan, he's had th Spancho's
first fight coming up. Oh he always tells people that,
didn't you see.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
That's the way they like to bet a lot more
money on him. That's the kind of a man he is.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
That's the reason I hate him so much. I see
what you doing? Well, say here he comes?
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Who Oh, Pancho, come a stop. Pancho had a good workout.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
He was fine. I can fish, I ever.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Feel now, don't forget Pancho third round. That's our agreement.
What you say, Oh, don't worry about Sam.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
He's my partner in the deal. Is he safe?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Oh sure, say to the bank Sam, shake hands with Pancho.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
This is Senor peers about then he takes too many
people find out. Now, don't worry.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Punch as I said, it was all right, sound now
that's our bottom.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Okay, but it's not I feel it of I was
going it with you. Jenny looks good to me. Oh
wonderfu on that lime. He got me a little sore.
I'm gonna show him. I'll take him for plenty.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
What do you mean?
Speaker 7 (11:20):
I'll have to convert some bonds and maybe borrow a
few bucks, but I think I can work it so
that I.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Can put my hands on forty five thousand dollars. Oh
scare yeah, good odds say? And a wrong wheel tree.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Oh if it's so much, I can't even think of it.
Oh damn, I just want to kiss you.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Okay with me, honey?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Can you get those bonds or whatever they are converted
in time to the fight.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
That's the next Thursday, you think, So I should be
able to get a draft on my bank from one
of the banks here.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
In Havana, and my thousands.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You still have it?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Not safe?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Don't you worry about?
Speaker 7 (11:47):
You can feel like that, honey, But next Thursday, you'll
be an easiest street in the biggest house in the block.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
You see what you get just by being a little rude.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I figured this jump is good for thirty thousand, and
now he's begging to give me forty five. And could
have told him that the bank of event it would
be efficient, unfortunately efficient for him by Thursday afternoon, stand Pierce,
my fine fat little Cleveland insurance.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
There has forty six.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Thousand dollar bills in his pocket, one of them mine
that I give him to Jenny to gift to him,
and the rest of them his, which would end up
in my pocket, for he thought that.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Was Orson Wells returns.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
In just a moment, there's the third man, and now
(13:33):
Orson Wells as the third man continues with it's a knockout.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
So it's dinner time, dinner time, and over the brandy.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I'm ready to start accepting bits.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Well general five to one, then I'll tell you one.
I'll make it fifteen to two. Hey, what's the matter?
Can I get any action from you?
Speaker 6 (14:07):
Gentlemen?
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I don't have those are nice harks? Suppose I bet
twenty five thousand I'm taking?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Wow, Well, just just just give you twenty five to
Jenny here, and he's my end.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Wait.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I don't want to carry this money all around?
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Ye yeah, take a little sature. You have to stop
it in there. Well, John, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
I'm not sure I trust you.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
I thunder man.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
I'll give you ten to one. I'll take those hogs
misch line.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
What's that? Oh?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Oh Pierce?
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Well fine, sa fine, I'll take you seventy five dollars too,
if I got me a lodger action from these gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Wait, John Burke's four to six thousand.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Dollars, mister Lyon of fine, fine, you've got cash, of course,
give it to Jenny here, and Jenny here's my end.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Listen, iime, I hate to be carrying all.
Speaker 5 (14:41):
This money heavy, is it?
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Jenny?
Speaker 4 (14:44):
All right? Sent Piers?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Suppose you'll be appointed crustodian of the stakes? Well, cop,
come on, no, I'm on, old man.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
I'm sure everyone here trust you just just about. Can
I get you more action? If not?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
That's just one more thing I want to say before
we all go.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
To the ring.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Maybe Jefferson friends, you all understand that the trust this
fight is private, not being conducted under any boxing commission
rules for that reason, it's a little irregular. As a
matter of fact, our Cuban police friends would quite possibly
feel that it's legal.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
You wont understand, General, That's why I couldn't take your check.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Well, friends, I presume I can trust you not to
mention that the entertainment was held out here. Yes, to
protect the licenses and the fighters and the managers involved.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
I have your assurance. Then that's dog all fight's about
to start.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Piers got those stakes, all right, let's go. Sheer delight
to watch peers scary as actual you ever watched the
manager no is guilty trying to act innocent? Brothers are
(15:54):
the first time Pierce has ever tried neck that down
through the garden where the ring was set up. There
were perhaps three dozens of us, fifty all together coming
the train is the seconds the reperee, and all of them,
of course ian on.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
My little scheme except just one. It's to stand Piers.
Fortunately they went all on my payroll. They were friends.
Camber's confidence man.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
The girl's anxious to do me a favorite, anxious to
to watch the fun fight is the ring now repert
he's talking and I have to watch them.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
But I have to watch Peers too. First round fighters
pretending just to feel each other out.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Plants is putting on a show of fancy. What work,
of course the two fighters I've hired, but on a
good show.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's artistic.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
We can't have Fiers getting worried about my rod when
fact he needs to dive for pears. I know just
what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
He's beeaking how long around takes three minutes, multiplying that
by the number of round Fantses agreed to go before
he pretends to be knocked out, adding the minute between rounds.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
He's thinking in less than ten minutes, he'll be collecting
in bed ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
That's because Francher went down on his knees, burke rady
clipt and look look to that. Peers is just as
happy he didn't bet on what round Pantcher lives in.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
There, goes s Fancher again on the canvas.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
When he got he's up at five.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Piers looks worse than Fancier. Does you know Pierce is
stealing his feet, making sure the central is still. They're
looking around furtively thinking a really trusty, silly smile on
his face. I'll just speak to him and see what
he says, well, how about it, Fierce enjoying the fight.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Sure what just looks I don't worry about you time
ship fish, he'll be all right.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
I had to go again.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Time show ups as though he's got to cut open
up under his eye. They probably want another ten dollars
from me that she show pretty.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Boy good lucks of fat.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Look at Fierce, just to look at Fierce now that
he's adding up his property forty six thousand and ten
to one and four hundred and sixty thousands, ten thousand Potanchio.
He's four hundred fifty thousand split two ways with Jennimy
six queer GROSSI two hundred and twenty five.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Thousands back of rus Nor.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Fan goes down again, and Burg's got a pretty right
hand at that just reaches out.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
And down goes oh Fan shoe on him.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
And put a poor at that time, I better get
more worried.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Looking here's might suspect something, Yeah, and looking at me
all right, watch his right, not y'all watch it right.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I hope I look second, if he is watching the
fighters again, fighters flanship, he's seen one of those powdered
pump fighters all flick and fluff.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
No real sock to him.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Burke could land him in one round fighter square rattle.
Pars is breathing hortter than either of the fighters, always
looking over at me.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Maybe maybe I'm better. You're many people to say it
still in the snes Oh hard least I know.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Now my boy doesn't have a glass job here, and
I just can't understand. Let's come over plant Shore tonight.
He seems sluggish, maybe he's overtrained.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Maybe she just seems sort of slow. This is rich
now Pears is worried. He's scared. Fan shoill make me
his fishes? Round three as is h it happened. Look
at his hand groping to.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Make sure he's still got that actual thinking as plain.
