FIGHT PICTURES NOT
ALWAYS G0LDMlNES

Promoters from every point Of the
compass, bidding unheard-of sums by
wire for the privilege of losing mo-
ney on the Jeffries-JohnsOn fight,
think they have an ace in the hole
In the proceeds from the moving pie
lures. Perhaps 1t may be possible
TO make up $4,000 deficit ON the
battle from the picture profits, but
there are forty reasons why 1t will
not happen. 1t may interest SOME of
the haphazard bidders to know that
Iof all the pictures taken at impor-
tant flstic engagements, only three
have made a profit, and several have
actually lost from 100000 to $50 .
900.
Here are some of the figures:
William A. Brady and Klaw II
Erlanger paid Hugh Mcintosh S25,-
600 for the American rights OF the
Burns-Johnson pictures, taken In
Australia, when the big black won
the championship. This clever com
bination OF theatrical managers
spent $1,000 more trying to make
their investment bring a return.
Tom McCarey. the Los Angeles
fight promoter, went into partner
ship with Tommy Burns and Jack
C'Brien In the picture privilege fOl
their first battle-the square one
The venture cost the trio $4,000
before they got through.
The Gans-Nelson pictures, taken
lat Goldfeld, We're financial frost
although the battle itsel. had al
America by the ears. Miles Brothers
who made the pictures and printed
the films, are still looking for TEX
