By H. C. HAMILTON tTJnited Press Staff Corrospcndent.) NEW YORK. Auk 11 Johnny Ki!bane, the featherweight champion, has come out with a howl since Jimmy Dunn announced he wou'.d not send Kilbano into another fight. "My title is up there for any featherweight to take a crack at." said Kilbane. "I'll meet all of the boys, just the same as I always have." Quietly, promoters are working on a featherweight mill to h" the greatest in that class since Kilbane met rmi defeated Abe Atell. A place has been found near New York, it is declared, where twenty-round bou'.s to a cK-rtsion may be fought, and here tht-y propose to send Kilbane probably against K. o. Kggers, the sturdy New Yotk feather.

Xcw Haven has been strongly urged

the location for the light, .and the fact that it was in Connecticut that Terry McGovcrn was first knocked out by Young Corbett may or may not mean omething. Boxing critics are cf the firm belief that Kilbane's next bout will be the end of his career as a featherweight champion, for they point out that once knocked out. a boxer rarely ever ccines back to real prominence. Kilbane. while not totally knocked out and not counted over in his meeting wiht Benny Leonard, was stunned and dazed when Jimmy Dunn pitched the towel into the ring. In spite of this fact and the pessimistic view taken by many critics it cannot be discounted that Kilbane has been for a long time the very best featherweight in the world. He. has been placed in the same class with George Dixon and Terry McGovern as a fighter. He i3 recognized as a deadly puncher and a clever, shifty boxer. If there is a featherweight v. ho holds those talents now in the country he has failed to show it. It really doesn't appear that Kilbane's title is in any great danger. Jimmy Dunn declared after the Kil-bane-Leonard scrap that he never saw Kilbane fight so badly. "I will never send him into another bout.' he announced. But then Kilbane came back with a declaration that he was just foolish enough to want another bout with Leonard perhaps in six months time and in the meantime would take on the best of the featherweights.

HAS IN All

IM ARRESTS New Buffalo Officer of the Law Passes Buck to State Officials.

Officials of New Buffalo, Mich., blacklisted by motorists who charge them with making illegal arrests, are now engaged in the grand old game of passing the buck. The little Michigan village, which is on the direct route between Chicago. Michigan City and St. Joe, has been largely eliminated from the automobile road map since war was declared on motorists passing through the place. That the warnings sent broadcast by the Chicago Motor club, which has taken up the fight against the officials, have had their effect is shown by the fact that tourists are now following a detour around New Buffalo.
