When Mr.. Jack NIcGuigan. the polished
matchmaker Of the National Athletic Club
of Philadelphia. had partially digested the
remarks OF Mr.. Thomas, McGuigan re-
marked:
IF you amt the funniest guy that ever
come TO me fer a match, then it's ME that
don't know a ring rope from soft band

Thomas. however assured Michigan that
he would be more than pleased to meet
any white weller in the world, and he
hoped that he would soon have a chance
to show his quality in the ring.
