Robinson, ii was revealed yester-
day at Olympia, there is a COM
plete sellout of reservations, a
previously unheard-of situation in
the history of boxing here.
Four thousand gallery seats at
81 each GO on sale al $50 tomor-
row night and Loco standing
rooms at 50 in the lower arena
are all that is left
For SUNDAY nights hockey en-
gagement with Toronto, Olympia
has only the loWer-priced ducats
available. Those at $1.65 a copy
and up are all gone, an indica-
ton of another capacity house five
days in advance of the match, also
an out of the ordinary hockey sit
uation so far as Detroit is con-
cerned.
