Text from newspaper caption: The prize! You wouldn't think that Tony weighed only 90 pounds and smoked cigarettes when he was 13 years of age before he became interested in the Junior Olympic Games but those are forgotten incidents now and Tony's medals, cups and marvelous physique are the prizes he won in preparing himself for the battle of life.
