Bas Weinert Wants Action, but Draws Line on Jack Dillon, Says His New Manager. iis Co, ARLIE WEINERT'S new man- » ager, Danny Sullivan, is a very frank young man, In explain- ing hie plane for Weinert’s future he @dmitted t6 us that there's one) fighter Weinert won't challenge.

Several offers Rave been made for thie fight, and Dilion bas always been more than ‘willing.
