MIAMI, Fla, March 10.-New

center with the staging of the Gene

n is the opinion of many here who

will become a boxing State that
will set the precedent for large at
fractions in the fistic world.
Tunney and Stribling meet under
the auspices OF Promoter Jess
Baugh, a leading figure in the box
ing world. Baugh is predicting a

Billy Gibson, Tunney's manager.
announced today that Tunney will
leave for Los Angeles, CAL, imme-
diately following the Tunney- Strib-
ling contest. Gene has signed o
contract to play the leading role
in a film play.
Florida's greatest sporting event
is a perfect title for the big battle.
Special trains are being chartered
in Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana,
Pennsylvania, New York and North
Carolina.
The arena, with a seating ca
pacity Of 10000. will have room
enough to house all spectators in
a comfortable manner.
