Small Crowd Likely To See Louis-Savold New York, June 12.— (UP)—Lee Savold arrived on the battle acene ■today as the International Boxing bluh sought strenuously to attract reluctant fans to his fight wdth Joe Louis a the Polo Grounds tomorrow night. Because of the slow sale of reserved seats, the 1.8. C. broke precedent and announced that 2b,00(> general admission tickets would be placed on sale at 9 a.m. tomorrow instead of at the usual 6 p.ijn. Those |2.50 general admissions will be sold not only at the Polo Grounds, as is customary, hut also at Madison Square Garden box offices.
