FANS PAY “TEX” RICKARD
10 MILLIONS IN 17 YEARS
FOR PROMOTING SWATTESTS
New York. — From the very mod
est beginning of a sportsman’s car
eer which saw him proprietor of
many noted gambling houses in the
West and Northwest. George (Text
Rickard today stands out as the
greatest and most successful boxing
promoter the world has ever seen.
Seventeen years as a promoter of
fistic entertainments have seen near
ly ten million dollars find their way
into the Rickard coffers.
To be specific the “gates” of fights
sponsored by Tex have reached the
staggering total of $9.550.566.7.1.
which includes his last venture, the
Renault-Johnson bout. This total i«
the fruit of nearly 120 bouts, but be
fore he quits the fight promoting
game Tex expects to reach the twen
’And why not?” he said the other
day. “Boxing, you know, is still in
its infancy.”
Of his ernnd total Rickard has
paid out to fighters $4,500,000 and
to thf* Federal Government $1,296.
“Hurh" Stln>; Him
On September 3. 1906 the fight
hug s:ung Tex and stung him so well
that to date he has not recovered.
It wasn’t the Malamute Cafe, but
anyway, a hunch of the boys were
whoopin’ it up in Tex’s gambling
house in Goldfield. Nev.. when there
was a lull in thp native excitement
the place afforded, and some express
ed a desire for “something new.”
Glasses filled with amber colored
fluid, were emptied for inspiration,
and the ‘birth of a notion” in one im
aginative soul put Tex Rickard on
the road to fame and fortune.
“How about a prize fight?” sug
gested this worthy.
“Fine! Attaboy!” was the general
response of the other habitues, and
Tex started planning.
Visiting San Francisco he signed
up Rattling Nelson, then a ring sen
sation on the Pacific Coast, to battle
Joe Cans, title holder for the light
weight championship of the world.
This bout was staged on September
3. 1906. and Gans and Nelson fought
their faiyous forty-one round battle,
which netted Tex a $69,715 “gate”
and a neat profit of $36,215.
Tex was off to a good start, but had
difficulty in matching fighters until
1910, when, under his financial guid
ance. Jeffries and Jack Johnson met
in Reno and increased his private
I
; exchequer with a coo' \f160,000.
j Battle »f Oat wry
Since then he hu promoted fight
after fight, reaching the climax of
hie unf inshed career with the Demp
sey-Carpentier “battle of tht cent
ury” at Boyle's Thlrty-Acrea in Jer
sey City. The battleraagnetlaed re
jeeipts which totald 91.626.580. of
which Tex retained posses* I on of
flimethtng like $435,000 for con
struction of the world's greatest
The Denipsey-Firpo -swatfest was
his other promotion which topped
the mlllion-dollar mark.
And all the bouts he has staged,
only two or three have been recorded
{as financialfailures. The most note
! worthy was the Johnny WLlson-Bry
|an Downey fizzle at the Boyle Acre
j age. The totaJ of “cover charge"
{was so stinted that Tex. in a manner
i paternally famous, dug deep into
{his pocket ard fished out 960.000 to
j let the world know he was as good
| a loser as he was a winner.

‘‘A huge amount of clothing is now
I stored in our warehouses here to
fully equip a new army division, or
20.000 men. An enormous amount
of this property includes thousands

which are as follows: Muskrat caps,
wolf and buffalo robes and coats,
I snow shoes, skiis. shoe packs and hip
boots. German and rope socks,
; gloves, underwear, etc. Five car
j loads of clothing are on the tracks
{at Seward, and are guarded by a de

post. This clothing will be brought
tc Anchorage when through service
on the railroad is resumed.”
"At the present time." Major Py

The Major continued. "The surplus
