Description

Clipping reads: "Faith, Hope, and Charity are, along with some other things, in this picture made at Colonial Country Club when Bob Hope, right, chatted with Champion Manuel Ortiz (left) and Dick Griffin, the blind matchmaker who arranged the world bantamweight title fight for Will Rogers Memorial Coliseum. The 15-round fight is to be for charity. Faith is what Gilda, the seeing-eye dog, has in her master--Griffin." Published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram evening edition, April 23, 1943.
