I The general public knew Kick-' ard as a keett-eyed, keen-sighted promoter extravaganza. A lean, I bronsed figure with cigar and cane. Ills business associates knew him as a visionary who also had practical ideas: boxlug man agers as a shrewd handler of situations and keen analyst of box-office values. ! To newspapermen, Rickard's door, whether to his old tower: quarters In the original garden ' or In the more luxurious suite of the new garden, was always open. To old time boxers and old associates men with their : fortunes gone, Tex as ready-hand-, ed friend. j Itickard always was more 1n-' forested In the speotaculur side of his ventures. In the size of his crowds and magultude of the undertaking than In the actual Doctors : Arrive Too Late fights themselves.

This fight was In many re spects Rickard's most successful piece of promotion. He Induced the principals to sign for a $500, 000 purse, and unheard of amount, but the gate receipts from 90,000 spectators exceeded $1,600,000. Carpoutler was "built up" as a real contender. when as matter of tact he was , not a match for the smashing Dempsey. Itickard himself was so tearful of the possible outcome that ho went to Dempsey's dressing room before the match and pleaded with Jack "not to hit the French man too hard," and to let the fight go a few rounds at least so that the record-breaking crowd would get something of a run for Its money. "I was afraid Dempsey would kill Carpemlor If he hit him too hard," tho promoter admitted later. Itickard regarded Jim Jeffries as the greatest of all heavy weight champions but his Interest In the admiration tor Dempsey's flghtiug Qualities was greater. For one thing Dempsey's and Rickard's fortunes were closely entwined. Rlckard promoted six of Dempsey's eight championship fights, made tbe Manassa Mauler a luU'.lomilro and the grcnte.it drawing card of them nil.
