CANS MAY MEET
LEWIS IN RING

Here's some more of the anti Big
bilious. Harry Lewis hackers had a
talk yesterday in Chicago with Joe
Cans representatives, and it's more
than likely that the two may meet at
Tonopah for a $4,000 purse and the
honors. Lewis is matched to meet
Pete Sullivan soon.
And this is the man Big Bill saws
Sullivan is too much of a faiker to
meet. 1t isn't likely Cans would think
twice of meeting Lewis unless Lewis
was a good 'un. And it isn't likely
that Lewis would sign up with Peter
Sullivan unless the former thought
the other fellow was worth while.
Lewis, whose sure-nuf name is Bes-
terman, and who Is Of the same make
up as Kid Herman, was fined $1,000
by a Grand Rapids Judge for accident
ally killing Mike Ward in the ring
not long ago. Besterman's daddy
jake is his name-was also fined
1000 big iron plunks.
