			Kehler: according to the "Trenton Evening Times" (Trenton, NJ) (3-8-1926, p. 15), his name at birth was Vito Frascella, and he was almost completely blind in his 30s as a result of injury suffered in the ring. Another edition of the Trenton newspaper mentioned that Kid Murphy had been managed by Johnny Torrio. Torrio was a Brooklyn gangster who moved to Chicago and was responsible for bringing Al Capone from Brooklyn to Chicago.
