Nothing has been heard regarding the

of the Tigers.
It is not likely that the new but-"

seriousness this afternoon.
"I expect to open negotiations with
Jack Kearns and with Carpentier's man

his golden smile its famous play:
WOCLD BETTJBN AFTER BOCT
"Not right in the immediate future.
But after my fight with the winner of
the next world's championship bout 111

aronnd Mexican's cafes with a cane and
a fine air. He was met by Fred Dato,
