according to announcement Oh
Mike Mitchell, who, with Billy
Shine as partner, conducts the
local club and training quarters.
Mitchell states the Arcade. Gym
nasium will apply for membership
In the Indiana-Kentucky Amateur
Athletic Union, and if membership
is granted, the club will seek per-
mits from the local amateur body
to hold amateur boxing shows
twice each month at the gym.

becoming concerned over the
scarcity of material in the boxing

way new leather-pushers can be
discovered in this city is by hold

all ambitious youngsters to strut
their stuff. Any boy showing
ability will receive training free
of cost at the Arcade.
