Gorman continued his same tactics, working on the body with hard left and right hooks to the stomach, with &n occasional shot at the head. His attack, however, lacked the spirit and the kick that featured his fight- ing heretofore.

Rickarf’s announcement that the stadium had been built to accom- modate 91,600 spectators instead of 65,000 as wae first planned, threw a bomb into the ranks of the scalp- ers.

Cheaper seats are stil! available. RECEIPTS OVER the receipts will be around $1,600,000 and that Rickard will come out of his venture with « good profit.
