AboutFights
and Fighters.
BY LEO II. LAssEN

THERE are two types Of
i fighters that have no
business in the glove game:
The boys who want 10 fight,
but haven't the ability, and
the ones who have the ability
and won't fight.
The first class includes the
tragedians of the ring and
the latter division is more or
less disgusting.
Little Joe Nestman. tho Van
couyeT. y. C., lightweight. still has
the ambition 10 become a great rinr
star some day but never had The
ability 10 get out Of the prelim
mary class.
Jack Allen. who is IN Seattle wit
Vic Foley. says that Nestmar
comes 20 rec him nearly every dsy
In Vancouver trying 10 get matches
and Allen simply cal't use him Be-
cause NcEtman has been beaten %
often and 70 badly that Allen has
tried 20 convince him TO qui; boz
ing, but Nestman still persists ia
trying 20 fulnn his ambition.
No fighter in tho Northwest has
moro heart and more willingness 10
fight than Nestman, and its one o.
the tragedies OF tho ring that such
n fellow can't be endowed with n,
ability OF many OF our so-csIlsd
stars who have the talent and won't
use Il.
Seattle fans will remember the
terrific beating Ncstman took from
Dode Bcrcot here. after taking a
similar beating from tho logger Ia
Tacoma a short time before. And
when tho referee stopped II in the
sixth round. with Nestnan helpless
The Vancouver boy was hsartbrokcn
because ho had never been knocked
1ut and wanted to keep his record
clear.
