World.

One of the hardest battles an,
one which / consider of the bes

Griffen was a man about 81,
feet four inches in height, and a

and one that carried plenty OF

Griffen's ability to take punish.

him a dangerous man for any

Tomorrow the Daily Times will

Can't you just hear Jeffries,
johnson, Richard ct al. murmur-
ing. 81 love a prize fight, but oh
you moving pictures?"
For it is upon the harvesting
quality of the picts that the
fighters and promoters count on
making the real big money. Given
a good day and a good fight, the
way the public will eat up those
fight pictures is sinful.
G.. l.. TEX" Richard talks of
hundreds of thousands as glibly
as most men do about their week
ly envelope and its contents. He
says, "Oh. / reckon we ought to
make half a million, or better. off
the pictures" without batting an
eye.
Calculating upon this big re-
turn, it's no wonder Richard and
Jack Gleason could offer $101,-
900 and Sc per cent of the picture
money to the scrappers. Richard
and Gleason's third IL the pictures
bring the sum expected will be
better than s167,666. while there
is reason to believe the European
rights are figured too cheaply, so
the chances are the pictures will
be worth near $750,000.
Richard plans to make % sets
of aims. These, according to his
dope, will lease for 1920 a week
each for IL weeks. Then he plans
to lease IL films for $500 a week.
When interest wanes films of only
the best rounds will be made and

Like lot of shrewd men, Rick
