Still Against JEFF.
Nolan. manager Of Nelson. is main
tanning his reputation for stubbornncss.
Late last night a telephone message
came from the Nelson quarters that all
difficulties had been smothed over and
that Nelson had agreed to accept JET
fries as referee. Nolan, when seen at
the last moment. denied this. He said:
Il don't know who Is going TO referee
the fight, but Jefrries VIII not be the
man"
somehow what Nolan says does not
cut much figure. at this late stage OF
the proceedings. Jefrries has made up
his mind that Nolan IS irresponsible and
that his objections DO not weigh

Jeffries said last night that when he
stepped into the ring. he would assure
himself that he was acceptable to the
club. and that then he would turn to
the fighters and ascertain how they
felt about him acting
1T may become necessary for me to
throw this fellow Nolan out Of the
ring" said Jefries. With a dangerous
twinkle IN his dark bay eyes.
The wise men of sportdom have made
up their minds that Nolan's attitude
presages weakness Of some sort. and
that Britt is a good man TO back. They
don't know whether IL is Nelson that
is shy on condition or that Nolan had
some plan which he is afraid Jeffries
will interrupt. They only feel that there

camp. Ii is the old story. money talks.
