   later Hein complains that the American didn't play fair.
   Two years later World War II is in progress and Hans Hein
   is in the German army. Kid Ryan is taken prisoner in
   Europe, and the Germans arrange a rematch as a publicity
   stunt, in a P.O.W. camp. Ryan hasn't been training or
   eating right, and the fight goes badly for him. In most
   rounds he is saved only by the bell. At the end of the
   fight, though, he floors Hein with one punch as his fellow
   P.O.W.s burst in with guns. Ryan had been playing for time
   and keeping the Germans cheering loudly while a tunnel into
   the German arsenal was completed, and the escape plan is a
   success. -- Call no.: PN6728.2.N3S75no.12
