1 30,000 SEATS AT STADIUM Rickard Submits Plans for Handling of Crowd at Dempsey Fight. Bu United Press PHILADELPHIA, Sept. B.—Plans for the accommodation of 130,000 spetators for the Dempsey-Tunney championship battle here Sept. 23 have been officially submitted to Police Director Elliott, by Tex Rickard. The seating plan of the Sesquicentennial Stadium, as submitted by the promoter, calls for placing of approximately 50,000 seats in the stadium Held, amout 15,000 of which will be on the ground level with the balance to the rear slightly elevated. Rickard, who called upon the police head in company with S'rank Weiner, chairman of the Pennsylvania State Boxing Commission, declared that, although the crowd for the fight would largely exceed that at the Dempsey-Carpentier battle, the gate receipts would be smaller. “At the Jersey City fight,” Rickard said, "ringside tickets sold as high as SSO, whereas at the coming battle the top price is $27.50. I do not think the gate here will exceed $1,500,000. The gate at the Jersey City fight was $1,628,000.” Arrangements for the preliminaries are now occupying Rickard's attention. Pairing of the boxers is now under consideration, and though no decisions have definitely been made, it was believed that Harry Persson, Swedish champ, is practically certain of a place on the card. Others believed possibilities are Knute Hansen, Danish heavyweight, and Monte Munn of Nebraska. MAY GO FISHING Bu JJnltcd Press ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. B. Unless Jack Dempsey decides that he is fairly aching for ring combat, the heavyweight champion of the world was to continue his vacation from active training today, and perhaps take the fishing trip which was forsaken Tuesday because of the weather. He bought a quantity of fishing tackle and Tuesday night expressed the wish to catch something else besides an occasional blow from a sparring partner.* TUNNEY RESTS Bu United Press STROUDSBURG, Pa., Sept. B. Out in the woods, in a quiet cottage far from the stares of the fight fans. Gene Tunney slept late today, with nothing to look forward to but a good long day of rest. , Thursday he will be back in the ring again, and perhaps his sore lip which has troubled the challenger considerably, will he healed enough to withstand his sparring partners’ blows. Tunney is now giving much time to developing his right. He was criticised Tuesday for “telegraphing” his blows. Tunney's aides know of that tendency, and are ceaselessly working to overcome it. GRAHAM IS VICTOR Bu Times Special PROVIDENCE, Sept. B.—Young Montreal, local bantam, was outpointed by Busby Graham, Utica, in twelve rounds here Tuesday.

TOSS-UP IN DIXIE FOOTBALL Coach McGugin Sees Hectic Grid Race Among Strong Southern Teams. Bu United Press NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. B. Dan McGugin, the "grand old man" of Southern Conference football, who has guided the Vanderbilt Commodores for twenty-two years, predicts the coming season will be one of the hardest to "dope” of any since he first donned a uniform. "Alabama, Georgia Tech, Georgia and Vanderbilt all have excellent prospects for fine teams this year, and since all may play the other, it looks too risky to predict anything other than a great season," the Commodore chief told the United Press. “Our prospects at Vanderbilt are particularly good, but I’m not overly confident, since I realize the task of moulding so much new material into a machine offers a tremendous problem. “Then, too, Alabama must be met so early in the season that there’s a chance that both teams may be set back considerably by being forced to reach fine condition so early in the campaign. “We face a tough schedule with Alabama, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, Georgia Tech and Sewanee. Tennesssee had a fine team last year and will be one of our most dangerous foes this year. Sewanee always is a real foe. The others are s.lll strong machines and only a greytt football team will be able to keep a clean record this year.” Coach McGugin came to Vanderbilt in the fall of 1904 from Michigan, where he had served under Fielding H. Yost, and had made a name as one of the greatest guards of the times. Outside of beh g the dean and ranking with the greatest of all southern coaches, the Vanderbilt mentor is one of the South's most noted attorneys. K. O. IN TENTH Bu Times Special MONTREAL, Sept. B.—Blackle Miller, Australia, was knocked out in the tenth round by Roy Mitchell, Halifax, here Tuesday.
