Can Make Weigl t

We visited Kilbane when we were In
Cleveland a month ago, and watched the
champion take light workout. He seemed
TO be In the best OF shape, although he had
not been boxing much, and after the work.
oIt he stepped on the scales and tipped the
beam at 1877 pounds, or Ave pounds more
than the featherweight limit, With little
hard work, it's a einch that Jawn will hit
122 or under long before the date of his
meeting with the Baltimore slugger. 1t
looks TO us as II Chaney would have the
trouble making weight.
This Chaney-Kilbane fuss promises TO be
a regular battle and no doubt will draw a
tremendous crowd, II Is getting all kinds
of advertising but It looks like the best
match in years, and deserves all 1t gets.
George Is the first real featherweight to
even be considered since Johnny won the
title from Abe Attell Many have tried
TO claim recognition, but some one always
Knocked them of when they were going
good. and they had 10 start all over again.
Clancy. however, has a good record be-
bird him. and is the only logical opponent
In the country today.

Dougherty's Offer spurned

When Jimmy Dougherty put up $4,000
for battle between Kilbane and Chaney
at Leperville last spring these wise per-
sons boldly asserted that nothing would
come out of 1t because the champion could
not make the weight. This could not be
proved as the match never went beyond
the talking stage, as Chaney politely but
firmly refused 10 consider the match Then
came Matt Hinkels offer and once more the
weight stuff bobbe1 to the surface.
But Johnny has slenced his critics,
temporarily at least When he dumped
that load of coin of the realm in Hlnkels
hands. there were gasps of surprise, for
kilbane is a business person and never
would put up regular money If he wasn't
sure he had mighty good chance TO get II
back

weight question made the aforesaid critics
sit up and take notice
For long time Kilbane has been roasted
numerically because of the soft money
he was supposed TO be gathering in. 1t
was pointed out that the champion was
pulling a Freddy Welsh on the dear old
public and refused to meet any one but the
easiest marks in the game. After the
"roasters" got through with this line Of at
tack, they started in on the weight ques-
ton and soon many really believed that
Johnny never would be able to make l22
pounds again.
