NEW FIGHT CLUB OPENS

All arrangements have been made for
the opening OF the new Tuxedo Park
club I'm Delaware county. Pennsylvania.
just outside OF Philadelphia. and the first
fight will take place there on Wednes-
day night Despite the question as to
whether 20-round battles would be per-
mitted there. Tom O'Rourke manager OF

Melody the welterweight OF Boston and
Billy Burke OF Philadelphia have been
mated to go a score OF rounds.

VILE. Pa. will meet In ten-round fight.
The building will accommodate 5000 per-
sons. Besides a number of boxes on the
main floor there are II rows OF bleach

The club is situated on the Central
Railroad of New jersey and is only a
few minutes ride from Philadelphia, from
which city trains will run without stop
For all the big fights specials will be run
through from this city in two hours
For months past O'Rourke has been
reaching out for attractions for his new
pugiistic arena. When he first began
to seek matches the pugilists did not pay
much heed 10 him. But he had in mind
that the fight followers in the east were
longing for 20-round battles as old. and
he persevered.
