There y nothing III the world

that seems to be the article Tex
Rickard il holding in HIS hands
tonight. when and II the sammy
MandeI Jimmy MIcIarnin light
weight championship is held. Is
those two fighters aren't u
stale as the bread ii turkey

flat.
On the surface Of things, the
weather is to- blame, but we are
wonde rinp IL II ISM just barely
possible that perhaps the ticket
sale had not been what was ex-
pected when Tex first postponed
the thing last Thursday at noon
on i mere prediction To the Ell
feet it would be raining that
night iii New York.
All Of Mr.. Richards adult
DAYS have been spent in gam
bling in one form or another
and it is remarkable that he
wasn't willing To take chance
on the weather Of last Thurs
day nightother things being
equal. II you recall. rain was
forecast for the Philadelphia
sesqui centennial grounds the
night Tunney first defeated
Dempsey, but with the house
practically i sell-out. the title
fight went on, as per program.
Ii isn't at all characteristic
Of the worlds premier promoter
to hem and haw around with
even q secondary scrap, the way
he has hesitated about letting
MandeII and McLarnin do their
stuff, and we can imagine Rick
ard has chewed up the better
part of a box Of panatellas
while fretting around over one
delay and another since he per-
mitted the first fatal postpone
ment.
That there may be some
stacking of interest in the thing
is not Richards fault so much
as it is Mandell's. The cham
pion has been anything but
free with cracks at that title
during the two years he has
ruled the roost, and Richard
must have known he was tax
ing an unusual chance with the
public in handling the affair
at all. Fight fans like fight
ing champions usually respond
well to such bait. But they are
quick to grow cold on a eagey
title holder who isn't out there
in defense of it.
However, Richards Judge
rnent in touching the fight is
and has been ct stake and the
thought occurs that he may be
having q little trouble selling
his attraction 10 the customers.
Tex's prices, you know are not
Woolworth's, nay Kresge's, and
it is rather we'll understood
