one Round Jack Hogan has cham
pionship idess in his head. now that he
has bowleG Johnny Frayne out of his
path At the same time he does not
intend TO force the issue nor trail any
champions for the present. at least.
Neither does his manager. Walter Fra

satisfied to let well enough alone, and

formers before they wade into cham
pionship society.
Hogan's showing was one which
elated his admirers. He showed them
All that he could go the 20 round route.

fast as any OF them who have been
developed here within the last u or IS
years. Hogan is not worrying because
he failed to knock Frayne out. he
claims that he could have turned the
trick had not several OF the rounds
been cut short
This is a very deplorable incident

10 blame but himself 1t was his place
TO see that he had a good, competent
time keeper on the job-one who had
his interest at heart and who would
have made IT his business 10 see that
there was nothing wrong.
However. its all over now. and Ho-

cost him cleancut knockout. for it
was apparent that the one round terror
would have brought over the final
punch in the twelfth. fifteenth or eight
eenth round had not the time been
cat on him when he had his man on
the way.
As for Frsyne. he is a good loser. He
has no complaints 70 make. no excuses
to offer. He admits that Hogan beat
him fairly and sQuarely, but he says
that something was wrong with him.
He could not get a start. try as he
might. All that the game little fell
