RICHARD ORDERS

BY HENRY l.. FARRELL
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

NI3W YORK, Aug. 13.-Back in
the hiondike days when Tex Rick
ard was the mayor, chief Of police.
sheriff and the owner of the big
gest place in Nome, he was known
as game man VINO would wager
anything he had on Il cold deck and
never bat an eye.
Since be has been in the boxing
game he has been playing for stakes
that ran into millions and the same
eye has never batted.
When he wins he cracks smile
that shows only crow S feet
around his eyes When he loses he
counts up what s left and plays
again.
Rickard, in trying to put over a
heavyweight championship fight
between Jack Dempsey and Gene
Tunney in the Yankee Stadium on
September 10, is playing the hard
est game he ever has faced but he
seems less concerned about the OBJ
stacles than anyone in New York.
His application for u license has
been tossed back and forth for
three months between the New
York Boxing Commission and the
license committee and it is now
resting i'll the lap of the license
body.
The commission, by a majority
vote of Brewer and Muldoon against
Farley, voted yesterday that Demp-
sey was in good standing and re-
commended that the license COM
mittee give Dempsey a license.
The license committee does not
meet until Monday and there are
some reasons advanced why the
board will defer action so long
that Rickard will not have suffi-
cient time in which to make all the
arrangements.
Rickard goes always on the theory
that " everything will be all right =
and on this optimistic theory he
ordered tickets printed today for
the fight.
