manager of Battling Nelson. accom-
panied by a brother manager, Al Lip
pc, is in New York. The first ques-
ton after greeting friends was: "Will
Nelson fight Gans2"
We'll" said Nolan, as he dropped
into a chair. that is the only ques-
ton that people ask me. But I will
say this much, that, with all the talk
about Cans. have not seen the color
of any of his money. The talk that
I will draw the color line is nonsense,
as I never said anything to that ef-
feet. The only reason that am keep
ing Bat from jumping into a match
with Cans is that both of US feel very
sore over the way we we're treated in
Baltimore when Cans seconded Sulli-
van in his fight with Nelson.
In the fight Cans smeared am
menia over Sullivan's gloves and near
~ blinded Bat That kind of a game
does not appeal to me and I don't
think any fair-rninded man will blame
me for not hugging Cans whenever we
meet"
Nolan is enthusiastic over the con-
dition of Nelson. He is better than
ever remarked Billy, ''and Will show
a good number of these supposed
champions what it is to fight whenever
thpy meet him ''7c
