Jimmy Kilroy is still anxious to get matches for his welter pride, Jim my Cassidy, but is having poor luck. ' Now the North Side manager has de cided to see what he can do with a little fellow, and has taken over the affairs of Jimmy Duffy, a Philadel phian who fights at 105 pounds. Kilroy wants a fight with Izzo or any of the other topnotchers of the midgets. This looks like agood time for KilrOy to match his man with Mitchell of St. Louis, who had a challenge in The Day Book a short time ago.
