THE WORLD: SPORTING NEWS AND COMMENT « » «@ THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 25, 1906. EDITED BY ROBERT pre NP of our Western correspondents bas sent in the following despatch: “CHICAGO, [l.—Billy Nolan, sald to-|* manager of Battling Nelson, day that the efforts of Joe Gans to get @ match with Nelson would avail noth- ing, as he would not consider him for a moment. He “thinks {t would hurt Nel- @on's reputation to mix with Gans,’ whom Nolan considers a faker. ig not prejudiced against colored box- ers, but bars Gans HI8 makes good my statement that Nolan’s bump of caution would Tule, and that he would put a cop- per on Nelson's willingness to fight the colored man, ‘As a plain matter of fact no one of the light-weights wants to fight Gans when he !s “trying.” Jimmy Britt is out with a statement that he bars Gans in the future, “as he has whipped him once." If I remember rightly, the decision in that one Britt- Gans fight went to the negro. Britt, ac- cording to all accounts, rushed him off his feet, knocked him down two or three times, and then lost on a foul by hit- ting Gans before he could rise from his knees. It was hardly the most sportsmanlike way in the world of los- ing a fight, It was hardly a satisfac- tory way of winning one, elther. Gans seems willing to fight Britt egain. If Jim thinks he can beat Gans 133 pounds ringside he should be ‘eager to get him into a ring again. All the San Francisco critics said that Gans looked like a bone rack, with. dry ekin stretched tightly over !t, at that weight. There would be much more glory In whipping Gans jnst now than in whipping Nelson, The Dane, ‘with his long theatrical tour, has dropped out of notice. while Gans has been back top of the heap since he knocked out Sullivan, Britt ts not held in leash against his will by any manager's timidity. He Is his pwn manager. He would fight Gans felt sure of winning and take on Nelson later in the game. Nelson, who would probably take a chance at Jeffries if Nolan sicked him on, would fight Gans or anybody else. But Nolan knows that Gans's punch mizht put a sudden stop to Nelson's earning ability, and he is afraid to take the chance. Nolan says he “thinks it Would hurt Nelson's reputation to mix with Gans."" It would probably hurt Nelson fn other ways—that's what wor- ries Nolan. At any tate, his statement that he “is not prejudiced against col- ered boxers, but bars Gans," shows how the wind blows. Gans ts back in fighting form. He {s broke, He can make more by “trying” now than by} faking, and Nolan's or any of the other, monagers of little men will take a| chance with him. ERSONALLY I doubt’that Gans can! make 13 pounds and e his strength. He fights best at 140, or within. two pounds cither way. He weighed several pounds over the light- weight limit when he knocked out Erne 30 pounds at 3 o'¢lock), and he has mae the weight only once during his career, as champlon—that was in the fight with Britt. But he fs dangerous. He might train down to 133 pounds ringside, fight on the level, and possibly knock out any of the lightweights. Among all the lightweights there is none his peer in pure fighting skill. His movements in the ring are as ac- curate and methodical as those of a machine, and he has a one-blow knock- out in either hard. a Here is a chance for Herrera. The} Mexican has u punch, too. While the others are all holding back he might step ih Gans. ih and snap up a match with It he could put the black man on would be forced to meet| in, for the lightwelght title.

Dr. William G, Anderson, director of the Yale gymnasium, has obtained data to prove that athletes—at least Yale athletes—do not die younger than non-athletic persons. In support of contention he says: “Prof. Franklin B: Dexter, librarian of Yale, has submitted to me the records ot 761 athletes who competed in inter- collegiate events and won thelr ‘Y's’ at Yale on the baseball, football and track athletic teams and the crews be- tween 1855 and 191.

Crane handed out @ solar plexus blow to the managers of the different athletic clubs in this city yesterday, which knocked them into such a groggy condition that they are still unable to go about without the ald of a few handlers. This punch was delivered by the Magistrate in the Har- lem Police Court, when he declared that the sparring matches held by the legitimate athletic clubs were ‘legal, according to section 488 of the Penal Code, which is as follows: “A person who within this State en- ages in, instigates, aids, encourages or does any act to further a contention or fight without weapons between two or more persons, or a fight commonly called a ring or prize fight, Ceapetl Mane In & public roe private’ sfasting exafte ton, ‘with or ‘without vgloves, within the State, at which an admission ‘foe Ia charged or received, elther directly of indirectly, is guilty of a misdemeanor.” Matter to Be Decided. Whether or not the decision of Magis- trate Crane will stop the boxing ex- hibitions will soon be decided by the Judges of the Court of Spectal Sessions, who will give a final opinion on the matter in a few days, when the cases of the boxers, referee and timekeeper who Were arrested by the police at the Colma A. C. stug on Tuesday night will be brought up before them for examin- ation. The lawyers for the club will argue that club members can witness a boxing stag at the club so long as no Admission’ is charged at the door and they are bona fide members. A Great Disappointment. Should the Judges of the Special Sessions declte that the boxing stags as held by the clubs at present are illegal, it will dieap- point thousands of persons in this city who like to see a boxing exhibition, Aa these contests have always been conducted in a Manner which caused no uproar of dissatis- faction, {t would be @ pity to see them stopped now.

Scanion cut him up badly and at the end of the fight both eyes of the Altoona man were closed and he was bleeding. So bad was the mill near the end thas the last round had to be cut to two mine utes, else Scanlon would have scored a Knockout, On several different occas sions it was necess It was the fi Inlow has had with q fast man, and he did not seem able to make the pace, AMUSEMENTS.
