ord plied up In the East and has met
some of the best lightweights In the
country and held his own with them.
Mitchie has not fought here for rev
eral months, but has been taking good
car of himself and doing a little light
training every day. Pete puts up
rapid-fire contest every time he starts.
There will bo three other star bouts
on the card: Jo Swain vs. Pat Brad
ley: Ted Hoke vs. Jo Hoff, and one
other match yet to be made. The bout
between Swain and Bradley should be
