And these are the tales that are told : There is the scrap of faded cardboard which entitled a Brighton Beach visitor to see Gibbons and McFarland lead with agile lefts so many years ago. Prize-figballyhoo and customs were much the same then as now. Papers of that day carried the proud tidings that John McCormack had bought the first box of six for this one.
