TOLEDO FACING
BIG PROBLEMS
IN HOUSING
TOLEDO, June 30 (by Associated
Press).—This city must grapple with
a difficult housing problem in prepar
ing for the enormous crowd expected
here to witness the heavyweight cham
pionship contest between Jess
Willard and Jack Dempsey, July 4.
With a seating capacity estimated at
about 50,000 in the arena it is esti
mated that at least 60,000 visitors will
be in Toledo the day of the bout. Of
these about one-third or 20,000 are
expected to be in the city over night.
Toledo itself is a city of about
300,000 population and even in normal
times the hotel accommodations are
inadequate. The city boasts of eleven
hotels of 100 or more rooms capacity
and ten more of fifty rooms or better.
The two biggest hotels have been
“sold out” for the last six weeks.
Nearly all the other larger hotels have
reservations calling for their full ca
pacity. The smaller hotels are filling
more slowly, but unquestionably will
be occupied to capacity long before
July 3.
All tne noteis plan to install extra
cots and beds in the rooms. A flat
rate of $5 a bed. whether there are
two or half a doren beds in each
;,(m, has been established as the
minimum. Only a few newspapermen,
who have been on the scene a month
or more, will be -permitted to occupv
looms alone. Other guests will be
cbiiged to share their rooms with as
many persons as the management
sees fit to provide beds for.
Estimates place the total bedding
accommodations in the hotels at a
discrepancy of 13,000 beds for the
number of persons expected to spend
the night of July 3 in Toledo.
Ad Q. Thatcher, a Toledo sports
man, is the leader in the enterprise
to provide sleeping accommodations
for this overflow. Thatcher and sev
eral associates have obtained leases
on a number of vacant buildings in
the downtown district and for the last
month have been installing cots. The
two largest of these buildings, the
Terminal Building and a five-story
structure formerly occupied by To
ledo’s largest department store^ will
provide room for 3,000 and 2,500 cots
respectively, while others probably
will have room for another 2,000
beds.
Thatcher and his associates are
installing cgts formerly used in army
cantonments. All bedding for the tem
porary sleeping accommodations Is
being rented from Chicago, linen for.
10,000 cots having been secured by
.the Toledans. Probably 10,000 beds
will be ready by July 3, which
leaves only 1,000 "extra sets” for any
emergencies which are bound to arise.
Lodging houses are preparing to do
a land office business. Like many
other American cities, Toledo has
outgrown its housing accommodations
in the last few years, due to the great
industrial growth, and rooming quart
ers are none too plentiful even in
normal times. Keepers of lodging
houses are planning to double up
their regular guests to make room for
the expected Influx of visitors.
Toledo is within a short train dis
tance of many large cities and hun
dreds of persons will stop over night
in these cities, coming to. Toledo only
in time for the contest. Hundreds,
perhaps thousands, of persons will
stay all night in Chicago, Detroit and
Cleveland, all within a few hours’ ride
of Toledo.
rUUUlaU auu oicamci av.wuuuuu»
tions cannot be counted upon. The
United States railway administration
has ruled that it cannot permit the
boxing contest to interfere with train
movements vital to the demobilization
of returning troops and has already
cancelled permits for many special
trains which had been planned for
the contest. Persons who were plan
ning on making the trip on these
special trains will therefore have to
come'to Toledo before the bout and
wll add to the crowd of visitors here.
RESULT OF AIR COLLISION
ON TRIAL IN COURTS
• SANA MONICTA, Cal., June 30 (by
Associated Press).—Is an airplane
collision in midair an “act of Qod”
and If not, can damages be collected
for a bean crop which was damaged
When the two planes fell 7 These are
the questions -that; are puzzling at
torneys for the Santa Monica Mourn
tain-Park Company, owners of a ten
se: 3 tract, planted in beans,, which wa»
virtually destroyed recently as the
direct? result of an airplane collision-.
Two aviators went up over Santa
Monica canyon, near here, to perform
thrilling feats for a moving picture.
A passenger on one plane was sched
uled to leap to the other, while both
were In full flight. A third airplane
circled a short distance away, bear
ing a camera and a camera-man to
take pictures of the “stunt.” When
the machines drew close to each
other, they collided and plunged to
earth. When they hit the ground, they
tore up a large plot that had been
planted to beans. Several thousand
people who had been watching the
flight rushed to where the airmen fell
and, It is alleged, contributed further
to the bean crop’s destruction by
trampling down the vines.
Now the company owning the beans
wants financial redress and they are
contemplating the feasibility of tak
ing action against the aviators, who,
they claim, were the cause of the de
struction.
R. Stafford, one of the railroad
workers on the Fairbanks line, was
injured severely recently while at
work on the grade near Standard
creek. A mass of frozen muck and
gravel, loosened from the hillside,
came down on him, breaking his leg
just above the ankle.
