Harry staten has arranged a card for
the opening show of his boxing club
on next Tuesday that ought to furnish
plenty high sport. He has secured
Barney Ford, of Philadelphia, and
Terry Mitchell, of New York, two

Mitchell is one of those fighters who
loves to trade slams, while Ford is a
clever boxer with a fair kick. A boxer

prove no exception.
Mitchell claims victories over Young
