John A. Keough, who had departed as a partner in the Old Angle Gym in 1948, resumed operation of the Gym in 1950, bringing with him two new partners, legendary boxing trainer Johnny Papke and former top amateur and professional boxer Larry Madge. From 1950 to 1959, they operated the gym in the Rhodes Building on the southeast corner of West 25th Street and Franklin Avenue. In 1959, Keough successfully moved the Old Angle Gym back to the Campbell Block where it remained for the next 16 years until that building was razed in 1975. In the above circa 1950 photo, partners and trainers John A. Keough (left) and Johnny Papke (right) appear to be carefully watching a boxer at work. | Source: Kathleen KeoughDownload Original File
