Taking the count

A man (fight public) lies on the ground holding his head, one of his eyes has a dollar sign-shaped black eye, and comments, "boy, what a wallop." Next to him Tex Rickart counts (two million and one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, three hundred, four, five--six- sev) while holding a large bag, several coins can be seen scattered aroun. In the background, two men (Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey) walk away with two large bags.
