rugged boy well my 50 to your 25 on the champ that's a bet they'll tell you what I'll show you make that an even dollar to your hand that's Mr. Harvey you're shopping for a pennies worth of powerful poison kid what I'm thinking would kill a regiment boy you sure been going around lately with a chip on your shoulder you've been going around with a chip between your shoulders Miss Armstrong sure been going around with a chap on her hands I see you've been practicing making funny remarks in front of the mirror again just commenting on life and love here comment on this piece of copy I just wrote and don't know what to do with shock power is merely middling middleweight challenger now supposed to be training for his bout at the arena tomorrow is training on soft music and subdued lights when it's hard fists and calcium lights he ought to be concerned with right now a bit of chit chat for the keyhole trade I thought uh-uh uh-uh what's the matter with it you're grinding an ax in our paper do you expect me to take shock powers insults lying down that's the way you've been taking them but fly yeah well I'm changing all that all you invented a way to fall down vertical all mr powers has to do is get just that much on a line you're making awful thin lips mr. Harvey except if shock gets on a line then I make fat lips on him I have my money on the champ and the champ won I'm calling you Georgia to tell you how sorry I'm about everything that happens but there's a real good explanation on please come down to your George George are you there operator would cut off operator operator who are you you watch us don't go up max take the other dog I ask you men who you are what do you want the phone's dead sister we killed it what's this about about keeping shock powers out nights breaking his training fighters got to keep his mind on his work if he wants to keep his pants off the rise and the champ didn't knock shock powers out in the first round last night you did now we're not kidding sister we know you had a lot of money on the champ rooting for powers betting on the champ that's bad manners you can get your knuckles wrapped with a ruler but if shock wants to have dinner with me now and then that's his business it's our business got a big stake in shock last night the wide was on powers to win you were taking all you could cover on powers to lose what kind of dame are you playing a pal to lose he's not my pal I've got a pal you'll let shock take you to dinner you can take it off he's in come tax entertaining the press and I'm glad I made him lose it'll teach him not to go around punching my favorite reporter now you three sinister characters just crawl back in your hood down at movie roles and stay there go on scab well come on not the silence of max half the time it won't work now wait it's all over just so you know it no I mean shock's learned his lesson now and he'll know better next time and make even more money for you yeah come up close max body muffles a shot with you look if anything happens to me people know without a kind of shock power that's right and they'll know was because he lost that's right what do you want that so won't happen again yeah max you wouldn't shoot a woman max would well now wait wait just a moment time Susan we were cut off and I've enjoyed be careful hey what is this close the door melon head don't start anything George the one there called max has a gun but a gun you got a license max max max with an x marks the spot where the body is found hey you better take melon head first max muscle in his ribs to muffle a shot wait for a street car to go past max what's this all about Susan shock powers they say he lost the fight on account of me yeah she says so too so we're all agreed on that okay what's it worth you boys to call this thing off we ain't trading this is a newspaper office the press all over the country won't like this they don't like anybody clubbing us around no if you heard us they'll blame shock why he's clean we're the dirty kids I believe this is your spot folks oh now listen boys this gets you nothing ready max Susan oh shock come in sure come in and welcome what's the idea Conrad they took us didn't they that's what I here tell that she made you lose and bet against you didn't she didn't realize until last night up and have my eyes open there she is shocked like you do it Susan anyone who takes a punch at a defenseless reporter has to deal with me but you made me lose hand you bet against me that's two things you did well you took two punches at poor George here you really like funny face here don't you let's have the gun max don't
