J., While final legal barricrs put in ay of the fight were being cle scenes usually typical only of pionship ring battles were this afternoon outside Boyle's Thirty Acres, where Luis Firpo and Harry Wills clash tonight, The proverbial weather luck Tex Rickard which has yot to fail the promoter in any of hiz major fistic ventures, agaln was in evi dence. The day was bright and clear without the slightest prospect of any interruption tonight on the part of the elements. Firpo and Wills were astir early, Both had a good night's rest and after light breakfasts, took brisk walks for limbering up purposes. Tirpo, with a few of his handlers, left before noon from an uptown | Manhattan apartment and crossed to the New Jersey side of the Hud- son to await the formalities of weighing in this afternoon. Wills was given a typical sendoff by a crowd of his own race as he left his Harlem retreat in an automobile for Jersey City. Sept. 11 I ham- enacte To Be Present Although the legal barrage which has been levelled at Firpo for sev- eral weeks was suspended today | when fallure greeted the 11th hour | effort to obtain a warrant for Firpo's arrest on a charge of violating the Mann act, Rickard and Firpo had counsel in readiness to avert any further unexpected action almed at preventing the bout. Hyman Bushel, Firpc's attorney, was on the ground early prepared to provide bail. It was predicted that Firpo would ented the arena tonight wAth a certified check in one hand aad a bill bond in the other, with one eye on Wills and the other on the lookout for possible warrant officers. - Several hundred fans, many of whom had withstood a chilly night's vigil, were on hand when the first | ticket wagons wheeled into position outside the big pine bowl. As the day wore on the lines steadily in- creased but plenty of tickets were | available and no eaily Indications of a pell-out. 70,000 Attendance Rickard predicted an attendance of close to 70,000, but the seating capacity of the saucer is 90,000, and at the Willard-Firpo bout a vyear | ago this was stretched to around 100,000, Bright weather, however, was ex- pected to boom interest. Thousands | whoe have heen disappointed in ef- forts to witness the polo matches, | including the Prince of Wales, were prepared to cast their lot with fight fans in the hope that it might change their weather luck. White tickets booths were doing | a thriving business with one agency reporting sales aggregating $12,000 up to 1 p. m., a regiment of §00 police officers was mobilized to | maigtain order. The lines covered 4Nl avenuea to the bewl and extend- ed over a radiss of seevral miles. No one wAthout special business or in search of a ticket was permitted insfde thess lines. Plain clothesmen mingled with the crowds on the| Jookout for eonfidence men speculators. The gates to the arena were to be thrown open at 4 o'clock.
