TOMMY GIBBONS IS
MAKING BIG MONEY
Takes in S125,000 Since
Fight With Dempsey.

Pugllistic prestige and big purses
are coming 70 Tommy Gibbons at a
time when the st. Paul heavyweight
Is long past the age when most fight
ers are in their prime
Fighting gamely up the long, hard
hill to ring fame, Gibbons achieved a
formidable summit when he stayed fif-
teen gruelling rounds with Jack Demp-
sey in Montana a year ago. That
moral victory" after nearly seven
teen years Of ring experience, opened
the way to the largest purses the ST.
Paul fighter has ever received.
There was no direct remuneration
for Gibbons in his fight with Dempsey,
but, now, at the age of thirty-three, he
is "cashing in" on the showing he
made and is apparently at the zenith
Of his ring career.
For his fight with Georges Carpen-
tier et Michigan City last May he re
ceived his largest purse. $4,000 Pre-
yiousiy mis- top had been Sl2, 800 for a
match with Harry Greb. He received

the wrong way. They never offer to
help; they have no suggestions for
bringing success TO the project, they
invariably refuse to contribute If funds
are needed. But after the campaig n is
won. after the work is done after the
goal is attained, they rise up in noisy
dissertation. They criticise the lead
ers They explain how this should
have been done and how that should
have been handled They know exactly
what was the matter, They assure
you in frank confidence that IL they

would have gone over with a bang the

who always without exception SIRE
