The No-Hoper
Ted Donkin , the dingo-hunter, swears that Manny O'Keefe is a born loser: 'He just can'take a trick!' Manny is an ex-boxer who has turned his hand to a score of jobs without success. And somewhere along the track he has lost Shirley, the one girl in the world who believed he could win.
