was nothing in the report that has
appeared in several papers of the
state to the effect that trains No.

should be verified before publlca-

JOHNNY KILBANE is THE
FEATHERWE|GHT CHAMPION
New Champion Is Born to the Feather
weight Class = 10000 People See
Attell Go Down &c Defeat 5000 Are
Turned Away.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. pa new
champion was born to pugilism in
the Vernon arena yesterday when
Johnny Kilbane of Cleveland, o.,
decisively outfought, outgamed and
outpunched Abe Attell in their 20
round contest, and at the close was
awarded the featherweight title by
Referee Charles Eyton. Kilbane led
from start to finish and at no time
was the result in doubt. Nearly
ten thousand persons were iammed
into the arena, which ordinarily
seats S400. Fully 5000 others
were turned away at the gates. 1t
was the greatest crowd that ever
viewed a prize fight in Los Angeles.
The receipts amounted to approxi-
mately $4,000 The men fought
for a purse of $4,000. of which
Attell was to receive $650O, win,
lose or draw, and Kilbane $3500.
Besides they agreed to divide even
| ly so per cent of the moving pic
ture privilege.
Attell was clearly outfought His
boosted speed and wonderful clever
ness were not in evidence Kilbane
made him look like a novice in
nearly every round In but one
round did Attell have lead, and
this was not by any means as de-
eisive as that Of Kilbane in the re.

CLEVELAND. O., Feb. 23.-Two
years ago Johnny Kilbane the new
featherweight champion scarcely
was known outside of Cleveland.
He had been contestant In minor
bouts since 1905. but II was not
until the lighting game opened in
several northern Ohio towns In the
winter Of 1909-10 that he really be-
gan TO attract attention.
First Kilhane met and conquered

importations we're made from the
east and west when Tom McCarey.

hands and feet. A straight left iab
to Attells nose or sore eye was his
|favorite blow. He would send this
in and then like a flash, cross with
his right to the other side Of At
tells head and then jump back out
of harms way. Attell seemed wild
all through the fight, but this was
due as much to Kilbane's footwork
as to any other cause.
As early as the third or fourth
round it was seen that Kilbane was
winning, and, GOODNESS personified,
he continued his line of battle,
never varying, and refusing all
traps set by the wary Attell.
Time and again the bewildered
champion tried to corner the Cleve-
land boy, but Kilbanes speed was
bewil6ering, and Attelrs actions
plainly showed it.
The decision of Referee Eyton
was received with a wild whoop.
Kilbane was carried from the build
ing on the shoulders of his friends.

he said, meaning Mrs. Kilbane.
