Tly Kit. \V. SMITH. Michigan city, ind., May '—For a boxing match with no title involved, this affair be tween Tom Gibbons and Georges Car pentier pext Saturday is attracting more attention and stirring up more interest than anything like it in years. The demand for seats has been so strong the promoters had to draw up plans hastily for additional seats. The former capacity of the arena waa 26,000, but by Thursday night, it will have seats for 12,000 more. \n excellent demonstration of Toni Gibbons’ condition was furnished, when lie worked out nine rounds yes terday and did a lot of the side stuff common in training camps. There did not seem to he a single ounce of f*l on him that could he taken off. ’ ' l wish we were boxing tonight,” was his comment when asked if lie felt his condition would carry him through to victory. There was little activity around the Frenchman's camp, though Georges did sneak off and do a few rounds on the back porch of his cottage at Long Beach. That was after lie had Field Golfers Enter Tourney The Omaha Field rlub will have an other large representation in the an nual Nebraska State Goif associa tion's tournament which will be held accepted the Invitation of friends and gone fishing, returning with a dozen fine white fish, which found their way to the training table via the frying pan. Today only the authorized war cor respondents will view George*’ work. Carpentier looks quite a bit heavier than he did at Manliasset and there are opinions expressed b.v some of the experts that the added weight might slow him up some. Trainer (ins Wilson laughs at this and says Georges was never better and will show it Saturday. Newspaper men from all parts of the country are arriving for the big show and over a million words will be filed out of Michigan City the day of tile bout. Eddie Kane and Francois Des rhampa, managers respectively of Gibbons and Carpentier, have 115,000 each on deposit with the Michigan' I’lty Chamber of Commerce as assur ance of the appearnnee of their men.
