who ls sulng McGoorty, gets a Judgment
against him.
Unknown to the crowd who attanded
the bout, the presenco of Sheriff Har
burger and hia deputles had a double
purpose. One was to Btop the tlght lf lt
beoODM too brutal. The Sheiiff waa not
called upon to exerclse thls part of hia
offielal funottona. But he did make good
on his other mlsslon. That was to at
tach the box offlce recelpta and cauae to
ba held out the $2,200 whlch Slater 1b try

the aaslgnee of a clalm held agalnat Mc?

manager and ln that cupadty advanced
McGoorty money and pald his expenaeB
wlthout getting any of lt back or shartng
In tha profltB accordlng to their agree

In vlew of the large amount of money
earned by McGoorty in his ten rounds
with Glbbons, the flgures glven ln the
sult as to his earnlngs two yeara ago in
three houts that he fought ln the WeBt

One ltem in the blll against the defendant
