Herriman Saturday: March 14 1910
March 14 1910 -- Just a few days ago, Herriman submitted a cartoon in which he put forth the idea that Fireman Jim Flynn was biting off more than he could comfortably chew by agreeing to a 45-round battle royale with Sam Langford. In what appears to be a complete 180 degree turn, four days later his cartoon claims that Sam Langford is going to be mighty sorry he poked a stick in the hornet's nest that was Fireman Jim Flynn.
How will it all work out? Well, let's just say the smart money was betting on Sam.
