Another fight that they have tried to fix

A boxing scene depicts a boxer in white trunks (public opinion) and Mr. Dry (Anti-Saloon League Agents) clad black trunks, tank top, and wearing steel gauntlets (foul tactics and underhanded methods). Tied to Mr. Dry's neck is a stick which holds his belt (exemption from punishment for crimes committed in the name of Prohibition) above his head, on his corner of the ring are an assortment of weapons tagged "for use by Drys in case of emergency."
