RICHARD IS CERTAIN
TICKETS WILL SELL
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August Tick Richard
is sure of wide ticket distribution for
his impending worlds heavyweight
bout between Gene Tunney, the
champion, and Jack Dempsey, even il
he isn't quite sure Of a place to hold
the fight.
While delaying announcement of
final details. such as selection of the
place and the definite date, Tex has
been offered the Cooperation of the
railroads which enter Chicago in a
plan to distribute the tickets.
The promoter announced that the
railroads have preferred the use of
their ticket offices as agencies for
fight tickets, giving out of-town GUS
toners an opportunity to arrange for
their seats before beginning their
journey to the current fight capital.
The idea, he said, was given him
by the railroads themselves, but has
not been definitely worked out. 1t is
planned to have the customers de-
post their cash with their local rail-
road ticket agents, who will then
wire the Chicago offices of the road
where the orders will be filled.
Only tickets priced under $40, and
exclusive of the SO unreserved seats,
will be included in the plan. The
higher priced ringside seats are to be
withheld until short time prior to
the fight in order to prevent counter
feiting, Tex said.
Meanwhile, Tex was awaiting the
outcome of conferences today with
broad limitations in the air that by
nightfall he may be able to announce
definitely that the fight will be held
at Soldier Field, Chicago, with Sep
TENDER Is as the date.

Lisenbee" day yesterday in beating

was wont to perform in the early
days Of the season. For time Wash.
ington fans and followers of big league

as one of the finds of the year. But

in Philadelphia, the young man ran

Lisenbee Comes Back.
In eight successive starts after that
day Lisenbee failed to go the dis

Horace was another ''bloomer." a

He just could not check any club.
But yesterday Horace was himself
again. He not only went through
nine innings or toll, but went through
them in workmanlike manner. All he
allowed the Tigers were five safeties
and two free tickets to first base,
and outside of the fifth inning, when
the visitors did their scoring, he never
was in any real difficulty.
While the Tigers were being held
at bay by Horace, the Nationals pro-
ceeded to wallop a trio Of Detroit
pitchers. Kenneth Holloway started
in the box for the visitors, but he was
stormed from the game in the fourth

Nelson is believed to be the

Since his arrest he has MAIN

Nelson was said to have escaped
from the Napa Hospital for the

sanity might be his defense.
The crime with which Nelson is
charged was one Of the most brutal

United Press staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-Today's de-
velopments in Mayor William Hale
Thompson's AUGMENTATION cam
paign were less sensational, but the
wheels moved on.
The mayor himself was absent in
Toledo, Ohio, last night he addressed
the Greater Toledo Club. He out
lined plans for carrying his cam
.paign for the Americanization OF
school history textbooks throughout
the land, and also announced he
would make a vigorous drive to get

national conventions of both parties
next year.
Meanwhile, in Chicago, one band
of recruits rallied to the Thompson
banner and it's inscription, for
country and not for king; from
another source came a verbal slap
on the Thompson wrist, couched in
the most polite terms, but bearing
between the lines that unmlstakable
odor of raspberries.

recognition of the Irish Republic
Joined the crusade to rid Chicago
schools of propaganda for King
George III. 1t was Endorsed I'M
hesitatingly by George McGrath and
Dennis Malloy, James w. Breen and
the Rev. Ambrose Griffin at a din
ner of the association.
To balance the ledger, the board
of directors of the Chicago public
library said in communication to
the mayor that with all due regard
to your honor, we fundamentally
disagree with you in your conten-
ton"
The letter then advanced the
theories that library patrons should
