Sporting Editor The Sun:
I, William Lubin, the manager of George Woelfel, being unable to arrange a match for the boy with Young Gilbert, challenge Young Franklin, who claims the 105-pound championship. If Mr. Franklin is open to defend his title I will give him a side bet of $25 or $50, winner to take all the purse. This is also open to any 105-pound boy in the State, bar none.

Young Britt And Woelfel.
Young Britt, the 100-pound champion of the South, and George Woelfel, better known as Young Whistler, have been matched by the Chesapeake Athletic Club for 15 rounds to a decision before the club Monday night. In addition to the $25 posted for weight and appearance $75 more was posted by Manager George Leiber, of Whistler, and Manager Herman Treffinger, of Britt, making a side bet of $100. Britt hails from West Baltimore and Whistler or Woelfel from East Baltimore. Britt by his defeat of all the youngsters in his class is a favorite. He is a clever little boxer and has two good hands.

Must Take On Bigger Men To Get Matches In Future—Chesapeake Club’s Two Fast Preliminaries.
Before the Chesapeake Athletic Club at Brooks’ Hall last night Young Britt knocked out Young Whistler (George Woelfel) in 2-1/2 minutes. Though Whistler landed two blows on Britt’s face, he never had a hook in. Britt had him virtually beaten after a minute’s fighting.
It was stated as a fact that they boys were each backed for $100, and there was a fair crowd present to see the battle. Young Britt in hurricane fashion knocked his man out with a body blow, followed by a right and left to the jaw.
