The fight fans only recourse for protection is to stay at home. I doubt that too many who were in the Turpin-Robinso- n upheaval will be in shape to tackle another fight any time soon. And it might be mentioned that the fight fan gets little or no protection from the State Boxing Commission. Maybe it isnt the business of the 'HH' State Boxing Cornel mission to see that any protection is offered. A p p a r ently Three Lovely Blouses To Complete Wardrobe GOT A COLD TAKE V. V. By i ifp sands never seem to understand. The promoter has the complicated problem of selling the show and yet giving it away on the same night. When the day comes when television receipts outmatch the gate returns every show may be televised. It stands to reason. If promoters can get $750,000 in the way of turnstile receipts without television, and $1,000,000 from television, then well have television. More than a few of those connected with the fight game believe this will happen some day. I know Mike Jacobs said some time ago that wed soon have big fights with less than 1,000 fight fans present, with television paying possibly $3,000,000 or $4,000,000. It seems that he was right.

They have prepared the best program possible without wrecking too many teams. Football, it might be stated, is not on a very strong financial footing at the moment. The high cost of recruiting, of taking care of the players, of the double-platoo- n system has about wrecked the budgets of more than a few big teams. Television was costing them heavily at the turnstiles. Till, SINKS, METALS, RANGES GtOCLIY, HAIOWAIi. OtfT and IO STOIIl AT fog HQDUCTS. Inc. NO EUSIAIN I L 1 St, M. t.

Its only on bright days that I place Bertha outside. Otherwise, she has to stay in where its dark. If you dont believe me, come and see. Roy realized that she was appealing to his better nature, if any. He permitted himself to be led into the house. The room, where abode the girl and Bertha, was truly a gloomy place. I concede the point, Roy admitted. He stared at the girl closely. I should think on warm days youd want to get out into the air yourself. I do. I spend nearly all my time looking for a job. Today I stayed home so Bertha could have a sunning. Tomorrow she wont bother you at all. Tomorrow, said Roy, I wont be here to mind. He scratched his chin. Look here, he said. What kind of work are you looking for? I used to be a librarian, said the girl. A librarian! exclaimed Roy. Would you like a job correcting English IV book reviews? The redheads eyes grew round.
