BRITTON BY A SHADE
Leushran Surprises With Close Bout
Against Frankie

frankie Britton shaded Tommy
Loughran in the wind-up at the
Eleventh Street Arena last night, after
six rounds of milling that were pune
tured by furious rallies on the part of
each man. Although Britton won, it
was really personal triumph for
Loughran, who was conceded little
chance before the bout.
Britton was fat and appeared startled
by the unexpected opposition, but,
nevertheless, betrayed flashes of clever.
ness and several times severely stung
Loughran.
Eddie Dempsey, short but rugged,
outclassed Bushy Casper in the semi :
wind up. Mickey Derr won the third
bout when Young Jack Malone's hand :
lers tossed towel into the ring in the
second round. AL Rice knocked out
Bobby Ryan In the second bout. Fuggie
Brown, subbing for Joe Kelly, knocked
out Joe Hayes in the first round.
