Plan Mammouth Athletic Club for Manhattan $2,500,000 Club Planned for New York City NEW YORK, July 10.—Announce- ment of the obtaining of a charter for a new social and athletic club to be erected in the heart of New York at a cost of $2,500,000 was made yes- terday. The new club will be known as the Continental Athletic club and, according to its founders, it will rank second to none in the United States. The site for the new club, which has already been selected, will be an- nounced shortly, its foundegs having been assured that their project has been successfully launched. Realiz ing the growing demands for ath- letic club facilities, the sponsors of the new club sought many of the most substantial citizens of New York and the club already boasts scores of names on its membership OH BOY!

Neither title will be at stake, altho Britton could claim the middieweight honors if he should knock out O'Dowd, but it is very unlikely that this will happen.
