By F. F. M.

After 10 rounds of hard and aggres- sive fighting at Warren park yester- day afternoon, Frank Loughery, the Philadelphia Bearcat, won a decision over Russell Chambers of Douglas. The bout was the main event in a four-card program which had been ar ranged by the l.. S. Engle, Jr., post of the American Legion, as part of it's Armistice day celebration, and was one of the chief features of the days festivities.
 The battle appeared to many as substantiating to almost the limit contentious that Chambers lacks a punch. Chambers lip, which had been out recently. was opened again by Loughery, while Loughery's lip, which was in almost the same condi- tion as that of his opponent. was hardly touched during the encounter. Chambers face was swollen after the bout, while Loughery was unmarked.
 Other reasons, however, and more pertinent ones, may be taken from the last five fisEts in which Cham bers and Loughery have figured in the Warren district. In his first bout with Loughery, Chambers won the de -cision, when it was patent to all the world that Loughery was not in con dition. Their second match was a draw, and now Loughery comes back with a clean victory. When Lough
 Ga1 ok Grand theater, the battle was pure draw, with Loughery giving Celmars tit for tat through 10 of the warmest rounds ever witnessed here, while Chambers, although he got draw with the same slugger. did not inflict half the damage that Loughery did, while, in the opinion of many, Gel mars would have put him away in another minute.
 A feature Of the fight was the fact that Loughery had stolen a leaf from the notebook of Johnnie Celmars, and slipped over left swings to the head and jaw while he was either in a clinch or just coming out of one. In addition, he did the greater part of the leading, he was the more aggres- sive, and he had Chambers worried during every round. Loughery's long suit in the ring is his willingness to fight. and it was this willingness, or even anxiety, to get at close quarters, that not only took away from Cham hers much of his hitting power, but which also made the latter's rabbit punch abortive of result.
 Both boys fought hard. Chambers played continually for his opponents body, landing at times with thud, while Loughery played for the head and jaw, and especially Chambers lip, which had been cut in his fight with Celmars last Friday, ana which opened up in the first round. The fight was also clean, with both scrap pers trying hard and honestly fer a decision. It was practically on a par with the last two Celmars battles here, which are considered the best to have been staged here in mouths, in which both Chambers and Lough, cry were given draws with the Los Angeles welterweight.
 The battle opened up with Lough- cry leading as soon as the boys had shaken hands, and before many sec onds he had Chambers guessing. Loughery played continually for the head and face of Chambers. rocking his head back with overland jabs, and ending the session with a clear margin. In the second round Lough- cry repeated. Chambers by this time was bothered, counterng Loughery's jabs with hooks to the body and short uppercuts which, however, did not slow the Bisbee boys tactics in the slightest. The third round was a repetition of the first two, with Loughery piling up a definite lead, while his aggressiveness became more apparent every moment.
 In the fourth round Chambers took the lead with three or four hard swings to Loughery's mid-section, which the Rearcat found it impossible to avoid Chambers continued this through the round, meeting Lough-
