Waging A Comeback -- Frankie Ryff, former lightweight boxer who is shown with his wife, is waging a comeback nearly a year after he fell eight floors on a construction job in New York's Rockefeller Center. Ryff, who will be 30 in April, is being treated at the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in New York. "He was in a coma for three months," said Mrs. Ryff. "Doctors told me he was a fraction away from death."
