(By Alan Randal, Canadian Press Stuff Writer)

Galento has said he can lick any gorilla there is. Tunney is said to be willing to back the thirsty Newark bopper $10 000 worth against Gargantua. The word is that Tunney and Jacobs agreed on everything but the gor- illa’s cut of the gate. Jacobs. through sheer force of habit, in- sisted 30 per cent was tau much for Gargy.
