The June 4, 1920 Sacramento Star newspaper featured an article entitled "How the Milkman Got Into the Ring Game":

He used to work in the horse racetracks. "About a year or so ago I was sitting in a theater here [Marysville, CA] waiting for the fights to start when the promoter approached me. I was broke, and my family needed money. 'Say,' said the promoter. 'I need a fellow to go on against Kid Blonde. Want the job? I'll give you $15.'" The "Milkman" (Frederick Walters) got a draw in his debut bout.
