Cassius Clay, concluding sparring preparations, discovers he
isn't drawing card he claims... ticket sales remain below par
MIAMI BEACH (UPD-Chal-lenger
Cassius Clay, concluding
his sparring preparations today
for Tuesday's big fight with
Sonny Liston, made the un
pleasant discovery that he is
not the hot-shot gate attraction
he arrogantly claimed to be.
Unless the ticket sale for the
"live" fight at the Miami
Beach Convention Center picks
up, the co-promoters, William
B. MacDonald and Chris Dun
dee, will suffer a loss.
MacDonald of Miami Beach,
a retired millionaire auto trail
er manufacturer, "bought" the
fight for $625,000; and Dundee,
Miami Beach sports promoter,
provided the license and the
savvy for the enterprise.
MacDonald announced Thurs
day night that the advance tick
et sale was about $300,000 "in
cluding cash and dependable
orders." Unless his gate for the
16,448 seats totals more than
$800,000, he said, the promotion
will lose money because of
the combined $625,000 purchase
and the all-round promoting ex
penses.
The original live-gate target
was $1,100,000.
Nathan L. Halpern, president
of Theatre Network Television,
Inc. (TNT), was slated to ar
rive In Miami Beach today and
report to the press on the sta
tus of sales at the 265 closed
circuit television locations in
the United States and Canada.
Last week Halpem told of an
excellent early sale. He said
his hopes nf the first million
closed-circuit attendance for
any event apparently would be
realized. A sellout would top $5
million, he said.
