What's In a name, anyway?
That question has been asked many
times. We ask It again. Just by rea
son of an introduction to a perfectly
good little article on the habit of
"prise fighters In changing their names
when they enter the squared arena
Klther they change it because they
are ashamed of their own to ret a
shorter one. or because there Is like
lihood of some fierce cognomen
1 ringing terror Into the hearts of
their opponents.
Here are a few of the entitlements
used by some of the leading scrap
pers today. The fighter's real name
Is given In parenthesis:
