Prize Fighter Dies
After Fight Injuries
PHILADELPHIA—(ANP)—Bill
i(Chieken) Thompson is dead. He
died at Temple University Hos¬
pital Tuesday night, five days after
he took an eight round lacing from
210 pound Johnny Haynes of New
York at Toppi stadium. Thompson
had spotted Haynes 30 pounds
when they went into the ring for
his last fight, the first since he
was severely beaten by Jimmy
Bivins in April at the arena here.
The fatal fight last Thursday
had been a one-sided and un-cx-
citing one. Chicken was on the end
of all of the telling blows except
in the fourth round when he top¬
pled the New Yorker for the count
of three,
Haynes stepped into the lead
again in the fifth. Three seconds

The coming of fall and

marked by- the ''Boy Scouts

will be given a distinct advan¬
tage over those who delay in
buying homesteads in this
much desired site.
According to Al Chaskin, 121
East Broughton street, the ad¬
vantage accruing to early buy¬
ers of Liberty City home sites
will be that the first forty
houses will be completely
plastered without extra cost to
the buyer, but after that the
cost will increase from $4,750
to somewhere in the neighbor¬
hood of $5,000. With this point
in mind, it behooves all inter¬
ested to contact Mr. Chaskin.
Much building activity is al¬
ready taking place in Liberty
City, where Ihe construction of
a Humber of houses has al¬
ready begun.
The homes being erected are
constructed of concrete blocks,
and have a living room, kitch¬

The only preresuisite for
Phasing one of -these dcsir-

payment of $25.00 as a binder
at the time the contract is
signed, and an additional pay¬
ment of $50 00 when construc¬
tion is started.
