Tarn,
Seotty once had in his stable a

dumbness or a natural disinclina

to winder if he was both d-af and

Whenever he wjis at the ringside
the fans; purely as a joke, would
demand that he be Introduced and

It so happened that one evening I

the ropes to the floor, he hniovnl

a certain game snuffed out tin Ath

At th time the A's had lost 10

grabbed at. There was the usual
kick and the continued shouts from
the bench: "WVli, you lost that one
