Now I am the Ital welterweight who has been Soxing up-State, and also in New York City. I feel that I have more right than Terry Mit- chell of Brooklyn to this name, and feel that by his defeats by practical- ty every welterweight and quite « yw iightweights, that he has hurt my reputation more than I ha! hurt his. I have been Aghting under this name for almost two years, which you can see by clippings ene Closed (the clippings show one win and several challenges) and have Made good with auch men as Tommy Connors, Sailor Tighe, Jimmy Gore, Johnny Glover and Jack MoCarron, while he hae boxed no one of im- Portance. Now if he thinks I have hurt hia Seputation by getting deat, I'll make ars . Me proposition, and it is this: ht him at 165 pounds ring- eater the welter limit, while I tnyselt @an make 14 pounds. Whoever loses, fle end shall go to any poor family fm Brooklyn that the Brooklyn pa- Bere think deserving. ‘The loser shall sign am agreement Mew we'll eee who is entitled to f@ename, TERRY MITCHELA, 32S io the Gay fer the meeting of the Boxing Commission.

He said his quick departure was due to his wife's illness, While Kilbane had no trouble win- ning, his showing was very poor for a title holder, as he missed many blows, and those that he did land seemed to have no steam behind them, Driscoll would probably have made a better showing if he hadn't been selzed with stage fright.
