Fltzsimmons has In- dicated he would comply, sub- ject to later court appeals. The union reported to the convention total assets of some $150 million in various funds. "I'm not kidding myself. Lightning would have to strike," said of his chances to defeat Fitzsimmons. "They have a steamroller go- ing.
