Jack (“Lil Arthur”) Johnson, world champion heavyweight boxer for more than eight years and regarded by many fans as the most scientific fighting machine ever to work in a square ring, smiled when snapped by the Times photographer on Nov. 30, 1929. Scranton Times photographer Harry Baroff caught Johnson in a happy frame of mind just as Joe M. Butler, Times staff member, told him a good story during an interview in the Times radio reception room at 149 Penn Ave. Courtesy Times-Tribune Archives
