New York, Feb. ' 24. Johnny Kil
bane's fighting days are nearly over. :
The good-natured little boss of the
featherweight division is no longer a
chicken, and no one realizes it better
than himself.
Eut even though he doesn't expect
to continue his rin? career over a long
period, he means to make somebody go
the limit to win vthe title unless he de.
cides to retire because of a lack of
worthy opponents. ;
Digging up featherweights to topple
Kllbane from his throne has been a
favorite pastime of managers and pro
moters lor a number of years; But
they never got anywhere with it.
Toda3r the Situation, insofar as dan
ger to Kilbane's skypiece is concerned,
has ohanged but little. There is. enough
of a change, however, to make it notice
able. ; .
Four or five featherweights wiio are
active in fistic circles today are worthy
of tabulation as likely looking aspirants
to the Kilbane halo.

Do You Buy a Car
Every Year?
If you do, you won't need this advice.
You know it. But if you ; are buying a
car for the first time, your satisfaction of
ownership will depend largely on your se

A good dealer is one who sells a good car
to start with, then backs up the sale with
ability to provide for the needs the new
buyer may not forsee.' '
Don't maks yourself dependent upon
an inefficient jdealer. This organization is
steadily growing more efficient each year.
