night. .
With th3 big event only three
day away, Tunney, la hi? declar

; Iu accordance with ancient
pugilistic custom, I- suppose 1
ought to make a formal statement
on the eve of the contest with Jack
iJempsey.
"There is little that I can say
that I hare not already said. I
am In the finest condition of my
entire ring career, and I am con
fident that this condition, my years
of implication to the study of hex
ing and the urge .to win the
heavyweight 'championship of he
world will carry me to victory over
Jack Dempsey Thursday .evening.
"As I have said," I am thorough
ly confident that victory ' will rc
"ward'ro'y efforts. However, I do
not underestimate the" prowets of
the great world's champion whom
j ami called to face. I am not
foolish enough to say that he has
, no chance to-whip me; I merely
state .that I think that I am in
gcod "enough physical and mental
condition to justify a predlct'en

PHILADELPHIA, Sept- 20. (A
P) -The Dempsey-Tunney heavy
weight championship battle in the
great Sesqui-Ceatennial stadium
here September 23 will be th
seventh and probably, the -biggest
title spectacle Tpt Richard has
staged. ; j i
The New Yerk promoter reach
ed the high mark for boxing when
he staged the, Dempsey-Carpentier
'Battle of the Century" In the big
wooden saucer at Boyle's .Thirty
Acres, Jersey City, five years ago.
That spectacle drew a cfowd of
90.000 that paid more than $1. -600,000
to ,see the champion's
four-round knockout of the color
ful Frenchman but Richard ex
pects the forthcoming struggle to
eclipse these figures.
The promoter's expectations are
that a crowd of. more than 130,
000 will part with, approximately
$2,000,000 for the evening's epter
talnment, which would lift the
event to an unprecedented level
for any sports event-
It has bee,n. also Xwenty years
to the day that RJfhstrd made his
firBt plunge. in pugilistic promo
tion, his Initial Venjure being the
famous Gans-Nelson lightweight
championship event at Goldfield,
Ner., on September 3. 1906. Since
that day Tex has mounted to a
position as the foremost promoter
of professional sports in the world,
the head of a big corporation
whose business in New York an
nually runs well into the millions.
Richard's first heavyweight
fight as the Jeffries-Johnson
bout In 1910 at Reno, where it
was shifted after being " barred
from San Francisco. That fight
drew a record "gate" at the time,
$270,000. the top price being 50.
The only fights for which tickets
have been priced as' high sine
then were the Dempsey-Willad
and Dempsey-Carpentier bouts.
In six previous, heavyweight
title battles Richard has promoted
the gate receipts have aggregated
close to $4,000,000. of which $2
800,000 clicked through the turn
stiles for the last two spectacles
the promoter has staged.
The record . receipts for these
fijrhts follows; 4 . 4f 4 - i
