COVERING THE BIG FIGHT
Millions Spent by Newspapers and Press
i75- Associations

IT'S Associations
we have heard great deal in the
last few days about the paltry million
and a half dollars that was taken in at
the gate mt Boyle's Thirty Acres, Jersey
City, last Saturday, but what 5 mil
lion especially between newspapers,
when a Carpenter meets a Dempsey,
saws the Editor aQd Publisher.
The cost of that short encounter to
the newspapers mounted into millions
More exciting than the fight itself
was the race of the airplanes carrying
photographs west Tor two rival feature
services or the hydroplane chase for
liners that had sailed from New York
more than three hours before the cham
pion and contender entered the ring
These were only a few of the big incl
dents in covering the most costly sport
ing event in the history of journalism
The first heavy wire costs tell upon
the big news agencies. Every possible
safety was used TO prevent slip-up of
any kind. For instance regular trunk
wires were parallel with emergency
wires and even if a break should oc-
cur on one wire at a big moment in
the fight there could be no break in
the delivery of continuous and unin-
terrupted story to newspapers and
waiting crowds thousands of miles
away Not only We're emergency wires
set up but extra wires TO carry the
overflow of news activities in the great
arena from the pencils of special
writer's at the ringside
The press arrangements were ideal.
Eight hundred working newspaper men
were provided for and as many were re-
fused press privileges. This was found
necessary on account of the unusual de-
mand of newspapers from every part of
the two Americas and Europe
The speed with which the story of the
fight was handled to distant points had
never been enualled. Allowing for the
difference - time it was just ten min
utes after the knockout that the result
was announced by London newspapers.

rect cable connections were established
from the ring to Cuba.
The Associated Press, United Press,
international News Service and Umver-
sal Service for the first time in the his
tory of the prize ring carried detail sto-
ries of the fight to clients in every part
of the world. Within the United States
and Canada there was not q single break
and the delivery of the news of every
move in the ring to therpress of Ameri-
ca. could be measured only bv seconds.
More than 200 telegraph wires were OPP

the morning until darkness. Even the
United News, which does not operate
Saturday night, set up us wires and
carried the big story Consolidated

AS the team has been praeticing
this week, but three changes have
been made in the lineup since the
Charlotte Hall match. Crawford has
replaced Thurtel1 at center. Littel1
is at left tackle instead Of May and
buckley is playing the ha1fback posi-
tion that Newman occupied. This un-
sturdy; but does NOT indicate much
OF a change from the former combi-
nation. for all Of these boys were
called upon early In the opening fray.

has been corrected remains to be

position on scholastic elevens here
and Duffy IL pressing him closely for
the honor.
Crawford. on his showing against
the Southern MaryIanders. has the
edge on Thurtsll at oenter In. that
engagement he passed better and was
more effective on defense. The re-
mainder Of the line tomorrow prob
ably will include Childress, left end;
Johnson, right end: Cramer. left
guard, and Casey, right guard. The
ends have speed and are aggressive
and their technique should show i'm
provement since the first match. The
guards are not so fast, but possess
much natural strength
