TOLEDO. 0.. July 9.——Gate receipts
of the heavyweight championship eon-
test between Jack Dempsey and Jess
\Villard here July 4, were nnollclnlly
announced last night at approximate-
ly $452,000. The attendance, Promoter
Tex Rickard said, was between 20,000
and 21.000.
These approximate'ilgures were au-
thorized by Rickard because of the do-
lay in arriving at the official attend-
ance pond receipts. Revenue agents
are checking up the figures-to deter-
mine the amount of war tax due the
government. and they probably will
not finish the task until late today.
Promoter Rickard left for New York
last night without knowing exactly
how much money the contest drew.
The announcement that the bout
drew only about 20,000 persons, less
than one-fourth of the seating cnpncity
of the arenas, was a big surprise,
Rickard said that all of the $60 seats
were sold, and that virtually all of the
850 seats were disposed of but that the
disappointment, came in the sale of
the cheaper seats. which sold for 810.
Provision had been made to sent
between 25.000 and 40,000 persons in
the 810 seat sections, but only about
5,000 seats were sold. The 'Toledo
charity fund will be enriched by vir-
tually $31,500 as the result of the con-
test. The city received 7 per cent of
the gross receipts. The money will
be used in endowing hospital beds for
the poor and taking children of poor
families on summer vacation.
