six rounds between Battling Mit
chell, well known local lad, and
Kid. Kirk, of Tacoma, each weigh
ing 'around 155. Two four-round
preliminaries between local lads
who have demonstrated their
ability In try-outs will complete
the bill.
Promoter Clough has 'been de
luged with applications for wetVn
from top-notch scrappers anxious
to show their wares In n local
ring, but he has proceeded care
fully In order to he sure of billing
men who could be relied on to
