cisco, have In partnership. grabbed the
plum.
No less sum than SOL 900 was Of.
fered and. in addition the fighters are
to get two.thirds OF the receipts from
the moving pictures of the contest.
The latter item will probably amount
to very large sum before interest In
the great fight dies down In the future
with the advent Of some new cham.
pion.
And talking about moving pictures
makes one think Of how lucky people
In the future will be when they can sit
down comfortably and look at all the
men who are famous now. and who will
be dead then, come out on the canvass
and fight their battles over again for
the edifcation Of sports who are not
born at present.

fighters like Sayers. Keenan,. Mace.

through fifty rounds or so. Those men

at times they used to accidentally land
a blow on one Of those vulnerable por.
