TICKET SQUABBLE
ALL IS ADJUSTED
Richard and Phila. Promoters Of
Fight in Accord

Philadelphia, Aug. 80 P1--Frank
Wiener, chairman of the Pennsyl-
vania State Athletic Commission,
and Tex Rickard, promoter of the
Dempsey-Tunney title bout at the
Sesqui stadium September %, APP
parently had adjusted certain diff
culties today. Richard remained
here to meet Governor Pinchot, who
came to Philadelphia to participate
in Sesqul-centennial ceremony.
A controversy over the distribu-
ton of fight tickets developed yes
terday at conference between
Wiener Richard and others inter-
ested in promotion of the fight.
Richard said that a story published
today that he and the Commits
sioner had INDUCED in a heated
verbal clash was exaggerated.
Everything has been arranged
satisfactorily, Richard said, and
there will be no trouble about
| tickets"
Wiener was quoted as telling
Richard that I'VE intend to see that
this state is treated properly in the
matter of tickete distribution. We
are going to supervise the sale and
no spectators are going to get
these tickets if we can help it. II
you don't want to agree to this you
can take your fight back to New
York again. I'm not going to stand
by and see you allow spectators to
get the choice seats" This was
said to have brought the reply from
Rickard that he would give Wiener
$4,000 "if you can point to one
ticket I've given to any speculator.
l do not do business that way"
Richard said that in his talk with
/ Wiener he had pointed out the
necessity Of setting aside a block OF
tickets for newspaper workers and
some of the Madison Square Garden
patrons. The disagreement is said
70 have occurred over this phase OF
ticket distribution. Wiener has not
made statement on the matter.
