The combatants and their seconds are made up in misfitting costumes, the fighters
wearing bathing suits, sneaks and stockings. Each round is carefully rehearsed so that
practically every move is prearranged. They clinch, and when the referee interferes they
combine and knock him out. They swing wildly, strike while shaking hands, and in one round
one man chases the other all around the ring. As a wind-up one man says, "Oh, see the
little birdie!" and while the victim looks the other administers his quietus. The
seconds do. their bit by pouring a pail of water over their men, and by pulling their
chairs away as they are about to sit down. After one round the seconds sit on the chairs
and the boxers fan them with towels. The referee counts the man out with, "Two. four,
six, eight, ten!"
This stunt calls for a lot of rehearsing, and to be well done should not be over done.
