an assurance that the cheaper tickets
will be sold as fast as the? are offer-
ed. Tex Richard predicaed today
that the “'lllard-Firpo heavyweight
battle in Jersey City tomorrow night
would set a new attendance record
for bbxlng.
The paid admissions for the Dem-
psey-Carpentler spectacle ran over
75.000 and the total attendance was a
little over 00.000. Rickard expects to
have almost 100,000 in his pine arena
tomorrow night to see the two giants
of the ring battle.
Receipts probably will surpass 3600-
000 which, In comparison with the $1-
600_000 Dempsey-Carpentier gate
will not. be poor considering that the
top for the battle. between the
Frenchman and the champion was
$50 while the best seats for this in-
ternational battle have been sold at

. ..... Both Finish Training ......
Both “‘illard nnd Ftrpo finished
hard training yesterday for the fight
and they will do only enough today to
keep tllcnisolt'vs on edge.
Flrpo looks ready and fit for the
fight that some believe may lead him
to the world's championship. He
looks much better than he has been
for any of his previous lights here.

. . . Punching Straight . ..
He has been punching straight
with both hands and the clubbing
tactics that ho had resorted to in his
other fights seems to have been aban-
doned for the better style of short.
snappy punching.
The South American seems much
faster on his feet. he has learned
much more about the use of his left
hand and he seems to have develop-
ed the process of thinking. The ro~
suits of his boxing with the speedy
young McAuliffe are apparent in his
work. '
l-‘irpo has plenty of mental poise
and he seems absolutely confident
that he has it in him to take \Villard
and then complete the Journey to
the top 'by going after Dempsey.
Firpo is one of the best business
men in the ring and it does not make
him feel bad to figure that his twen-
ty per cent of the gate rccepts may
net him over $100,000.
Like all the fighters that DeI-‘orest
has trained. Firpo has perfected the
style of following his left with a hard
right hand after every lead. He has
developed an aggressive style like
Dempsey and he has perfected a good
right uppercut.
As far as technical qualifications
are concerned, Firpo seems to have
everything essential.-—speed. strength
weight. punching power and enough
skill and boxing to balance them.
His heart Is the only doubtful fac-
tor and that Is doubtful only because
he has never been forced to submit
to great punishment. In several of
his early fights here he was on the
floor and he came up fighting back
hard. He was punished some by Bill
Brennan but he has never had the
opportunity to show the sameness
that his opponent did in Toledo.

Dempsey-Wi
"If Harry Wills ls really anxious to
prove his claim to a fi ht with Jack
Dempsey, let him meet c winner of
the Flrpo-VVlllard match.” suggests
Tex Rickard. in an official statement
touching on the heavyweight situation
just at present.
Rickard intimates that he might be
persuaded to promote such a match
between \Vle and either 1-‘irpo or
\Villard. but still refuses to say poo»
Itivcly that he wants a DempseyWills
match. come what may.
"I have not changed from my orig«
inal stand with regard to a Uctllps‘l‘l-
Wills match." says Rickard. "I do
not think the match can be held. and
for that reason i am not greatly cx-
cited about it. Howevcr. i‘.‘ l \vvl'c

“l'm not satisfied in my own mimi

either emerges a knockout victor.
something that I am almost certain
will happen. I feel satisfied that the
public will clamor tor Dempsey to
meet this man. whether he be Willard
or Firpo. and I am also satisfied that
Jack Kearns. speaking for Dempsey,
will be inclined to accept the match.
The Champion's percentage of the gate
receipts that he will receive for a bout
with Willard or Firpo will top any-
thing that he would get for a \‘Hlls
match. And there will not be any ob-
jection to the Dempsey-“'illard or
Dempsey~Firpo match that there has
been. Is now. and probably always will
be to a Dempsey-Wills contest.
\‘i'ills Is L‘nfortunate.
"L‘ntil Flrpo happened along. and
Willard came out of his retirement
to achieve a. notable come-back. \Vills
had the logical opponent field pretty
much to himself. It is not that way
now. Even Gibbons. by virtue of what

prior right to e. Dempsey match. It
is unfortunate for Wills. of course. but
I do not see how it can be helped.

Will Be Allowed.
"If the matching of ‘Vllls with the
\‘t’illard-l4'irpo winner will help
straighten out the entire situation. I‘m
ready to talk it over."
Rickard is not sure which of the
two performers in Thursday night's
swat carnival he likes the better.
“'hiln he favored l-‘irpo at one time.
the remarkable showing of \Villard in
his training camp at Yonkers has
made the light look like anything but
a cinch to pick.

"There is no press agent bunk about

WEIGHT AND
. “'ill Denny Leonard be able to re-
duce his weight to 135 pounds and
be strong when he enters the ring
with Low Tendler a week from next
Monday night at the Yankee Sta-
dium?
Those who saw the lightweight
champion in action last Monday
night in Philadelphia are asking this
question. It is the same query that
preceded Leonard‘s first meeting
with the Philadelphia challenger a
year ago.
Leonard made the weight then—
made it several days before the fight
at Boyle's Thirty Acres—~but It un-
doubtedly sappcd some of his vitality.
He was drawn too fine for that fight
and but for his superior ring gen-
eralship might not have withstood
the vicious attack Tendler made In
the first few rounds.
Another year of comparative ring
idleness now rests on Leonard‘s
shoulders. Outwardly he has It
splendid appearance. His eye is
bright. his skin clear and his agility.
as displayed against Alex Hart, was
pleasing. Perhaps his timing of
punches was a little bad last Monday
night. but then Hart '
target. much harder to hit than the
aggressive and forceful Tendler.
Leonard's boxing form is always
good in a big fight and with two
weeks more of hard work in the Cats-
kllls he should be as ready as he ever
will be again.
Those Pounds of Flesh
His most serious problem. it seems
to us. is removing the excess pound-
age gradually and in a way that will
not sap his vitality. -
Old Father Time takes toll of ring
champions at an age when the or-
dinary mortal is still flushed with
youth and a thrill with the vital
spark. Leonard is twenty-seven and
he has never dissipated his youth. yet
he shows the unmistakable signs of
good living and long vacations from
the ring.’ Having sat on top of the
lightweight division for more than six
years. he is satiated with his honors.
Long periods of training bore him.
The spotlight is always on a cham-
pion. Leonard was jeered in Phila-
delphia. because he did not stop Hart.
3. light hitter. “'e have an idea that
Benny could have done that little
thing had he been so minded. How-
ever. he was merciful and contented
himself with stepping the distance.
In our opinion Leonard did not try
hard to stop ‘Hart. Some of his
punches were spectacular and deliv-
ered with a snap but not with the
jarring impact that accompanlee
knockout intent. Possibly
might have been saving his hands.
The Hart bout. however. was Just
what Benny needed. Had he knock-
ed Alax out in ground or two he
would not have received the test he
wanted. It was his Ides. to see how

that is that I.must keep fighting. {No
