Johnny KiIbdne
AUOids Best Boys

! (By Henry L. Farrell, United Press
Staff Correspondent
New York, Dec LIN these days
of non-fighting champions, Johnny
Kilbane, histrionic expert and erst-
while Cleveland politician, wins the
pewter e'e'Croix de Ring
He's the undisputed champion of
all weights and classes at avoiding
ring engagements. Beating through
the small-tine circuits with yaude-
vile act in which he dances, sings
and plays a violin, the feather
weight champion Of the world has
no ear for offers of Tex Rickard and
the challenges Of pair OF first
class con tenders.
The cha mpion told the writer dur
ing the worlds series that he had
received no offer from Rickard, but
that he was not disposed to risk his
title in the east, where he figures
there is nothing but prejudice
against him. In a decision bout
eastern fans sincerely believe that
he would lose his title against eth
er Billy De Foe the st. Paul little
fellow, or Andy Clancy.
De Foe with his slatshing attack,
his clever boxing and his obvious
desire to do his best every minute,
made a tremendous hit on his first
appearance in New York recently
when he battered Ralph Brady al
most into a pulp. Brady weighed
over 40 pounds and he was later
suspended for failing to make weight
by the New York state commission.
Coming out of Madison Square
Garden after the bout the fans were
unanimous in something like this
THAT De Foe is a real boy. We
want to see him some more.
Wouldn't he make mess Of Ki.
tane?"
De Foe was unable to get fight
in his class in the middlewest and
he had to mingle with lightweights
and welterweights. Rickard is hav-
ing the same trouble in getting the
featherweights of the east to 80
against him.
Andy CLANCY is another good boy
Bugs around here are confident he
would finish the champion in a fif-
teen round go to a decision. Eddie
Mead, Chaney's manager, caused
lot of amusement recently with a
novel advertising stunt to force the
champion into a fight.
He spread broadcast notices,
bearing the picture and description
of Kilbeane and offering $1,000 for
his capture"
"One thousand dollars will be
paid by the undersigned Eddie Mead,
to any person who captures Johnny
Kilbane and delivers him into the
hands of Andy CLANCY in any ring
of the United States" the notice
read. "Kilbane has run away with
tn efeatherweight title of the world,
which is public property and is
known to be hiding somewhere in
vaudeville at the present time.
"kilbane is about 5 feet, inches
tall and weighs in the neighborhood
of 40 opunds. HIS hair is fast
turning white from worry to which
CLANCY has subjected him; his left
ear is slightly cauliflowered and his
NOSE bears testimony to the punches
which have bounced off it. Kilbane
is very natty dresser. He has
