CHICAGO, Feb. 16.-BoXing Pro-
meters Nate Lewis and Jim Mullen
had their first financial setback
registered against them today after
So rounds of boxing which lasted
more than four hours last night in
the Chicago Stadium. The carni-
val attracted only 1869 paid adnis-
sions and gross receipts of $6386.40
The estimated loss was more than
$1,000.
Previously Lewis and Mullen, who
began promoting in November, had
put on four big successes in the
Chicago Stadium and one in the De-
troit Olympia.
The outstanding boxer on last
nights program was Mike BelloiSe,
New York featherweight, who out
pointed Paul (Tennessee) Lee, In
dianapolis, in six rounds. Belloise
weighed 1891, Lee 123$4.
Belloise dropped Lee for a count
of eight with left hook to the
head in the first round, and won
every round by a wide margin. He
had Lee cut and bleeding in the lat
ter rounds, and obviously spared in
the final round.
