New York society matron Elsa Maxwell has been asked by her society friend, Mrs. Peyton, to be in charge of the entertainment for the upcoming Milk Fund bazaar, the idea being to have something original. Elsa's nephew, reporter Doug Abbott, has an idea for the entertainment: a boxing exhibition. He has just won the contract of boxer 'Slapsie' Maxie Rosenbloom, who could be one of the boxers. Upon meeting Slapsie, Elsa is able to convince him that she could train him for the bout despite his initial hesitation due to she being a "she". Elsa and Slapsie go through their ups and downs of training, his feelings about being associated with a group of society matrons in a Long Island bazaar, and his thoughts about his opponent, contender One Punch McGurk. Through it all, Elsa may have more at stake that her side wins than Slapsie.
