TITLE FIGHT SEEMS SURE
TO SMASH ALL RECORDS

Richard went over his ideas of seat
ing arrangements yesterday with en-
gineers of the South Park Board
which controls the stadium, and drafts
men began work on the blueprints
which are to be submitted to the H.
linois State Athletic Commission to-
morrow.
Tentative plans Of the price scale
show that the $40 ringside seats
clustered around the ring on the
ground between the two colonnades of
the stadium wings, constitute but
small percentage of the seats. Nearly
all of the permanent rows around the
huge concrete horseshoe are scaled at
$50, SIS and 500, about evenly divided
between the so rows Of chairs.
The gigantic incline which Richard
plans to build from the ring UP to the
open north end of the horseshoe,
scales from $40 down to SIS, with
nearly all the S. seats at the top Of
this sloping grandstand, and more of
the SIS seats on the big incline than
any other one price class.
The glass inclosed press boxes just
in front of the colonnade pillars, on
top of the stadium wings, are said to
be the object Of considerable bidding
among those planning to entertain
big parties of friends for the fight.
One of them is said to have been al
ready reserved by wealthy Chi
cagoan for himself and IS friends

the former champion, his wife, Estelle
Taylor: her nurse and a maid, and a
few friends boarded the train at a
suburban station.
A group of retainers. headed by
Jerry Luvadis, was the feint used in
Dempsey's farewell joke on his friends
and the newspaper men. The train
ing crew waited at the Los Angeles
station and entrained there. So con-
fdent was the crowd that Dempsey
himself would appear that IL held the
train for five minutes over its seized.

His wife's illness and Dempseys de-
sire to spare her the excitement of an
uproarious farewell crowd were given
as the reasons for the switch of sta.
tions.
Friends Of the boxer said he intend.

TILDEN NOW SEEMS
AS DURABLE AS EVER

By the Associated Press.
Big Bill Tilden cracked a bit, 1t
seemed, in his two main matches with
French rivals abroad earlier in the
year, but the lanky American tennis
ace appears as durable as ever now
that he is back on home soil.
The effects Of campaign that has
taken him over half of the United
States and a good share OF Europe
this season apparently are just the
stimulus he needs.
Too much significance may not be
attached to it. but Tilden's decisive
victory over George Lott after the
Young Chicago star had whipped Rene
Lacoste in straight sets certainly In
dicates no letdown in the keen edge
of Big Bills game.
The French ace always has been
slow to round into form on this side.
He didn't reach his best until the last
match of the Davis Cup challenge
round last year. when he defeated
Tilden and then went on to win the
American singles title.
On the form he displayed at South
ampton. however, the silent Rene
must improve rapidly If he Is to be
a major factor in his country's bid
for the Davis Cup this September.
