REFEREE AWARDS DECISION ID FRANK LOUGHREY AFTER HARD.
 FAST BATTLE. WITH CHAMBERS

ery's jabs to the face with counters to the stomach and ribs, and opening up his rabbit punch" which. how ever, did not have the steam behind it that showed in his former bouts with the Bisbee fighter. This round was even.
 The fifth round went to Lougherv by a shade. In the sixth, Chambers rushed Loughery as the bell sounded. swinging to the stomach and catch ing Loughery with the rabbit punch'' as he tucked. Loughery came back with straight jabs to the face, varied by left swings to the jaw as he came up from the blows on the back of his neck This was the most spec tacular round of the fight, with Loughery's newly learned trick of catching Chambers with a left swing. often rocking the latter's head. The round was Loughery's.
 The seventh round was tame. with both boys evidently tired, and contin- uing series of taps to the head and stomach. Even Stephen. The eighth went to Loughery by a mile. Start ing with the gong, he fought Cham bers off his feet, carrying the fight with never a hint of a let-up, and forcing his opponent throughout the session. In the ninth, LOughery took the lead again, while Chambers showed bad judgment in his swings, and the rabbit punch" had lost all inE Ia ct; Hol left. however, and landed several stiff ones to Lougherys mid-section, but not in sufficient quantities or force to offset the latters swings to the jaw or jabs to the nose and mouth. The round was Loughery's.
 The tenth and last round was even, with Chambers fighting hard from the tap of the bell, but met at every stage by Loughery's bulldog desire to be in the htick of the mixing. Cham bers repeatedly tried the rabbit punch" with Loughery surprising the spectators with his cleverness in coming up with hard swings after he had been beaten almost to his knees, and landing heavily on Cham bers' head and jaw
 The decision was made by Referee creed all the afternoons bouts.
 In the semi-final Johnnie Meyer met, in the person of Frankie Fowser of Fl Paso, not only the cleverest man to face him in his career, but perhaps the cleverest and cleanest h;.,iaS boxer that has appeared in the Warren district in many moons. Fowser looked like pure class yester- day afternoon, while Meyer showed even his friends gave him credit for. The draw decision was the only one that could have been given. Meyer showed the same coolness that has distinguished him in his other ap- pearances here, while Fowser was unable to plant the haymaker which he so evidently carries.
 The preliminaries were tame. Kid Frenchie and Kid Hansen, local boys, met in the curtain-raiser. Frenchie stepped out in the first and second rounds. putting his opponent to the | canvas in the latter, but not with sufficient force to get him anything, and in the third Hansen came back and put Frenchie away for the count with pretty and neat little clip to the jaw.
 Kid Higgins of Bisbee stepped into Kid Turns of Lowell in the second preliminary as if he were going to | knock his block off without any hesi- tancy, but Burns took exception to this and handed more raps to Hig- gins jaw. in 30 seconds than Higgins thought were in the known world. Then Burns took one healthy swing that was loaded to the guards with morphine, and Higgins went to sleep. 1 Burns has very neat way of hand ! ling himself, and carries a punch that starts from his shoulder with out any frilIs. He boxes neatly, and with handling should prove a good addition to local fistic circles. The newly organized band of the American Legion was in attendance throughout the card, and repeatedly won the plaudits of the crowd by their renditions. The timekeepers i for all the fights were Red" Cannon | and Spider" Kelly.
