Does Harper
Lack Ambition?

A year or so ago Bob Harper
looked like the best bet for a worlds
championship that was ever pro-
duced In the Northwest Today
mention OF Harper's name brings
only casual comment.
Some ring critics seem to think
that tho Seattle boy lacks ambition
and that Charley Jost's tutoring has
done his style a lot OF harm. as Har-
per Is distinctly an infighter now
md has lost that battling cleyerness
hat brought him early fame.
Tho whole thing IL that Harper
lost a lot OF prestige when he was
defeated by Krachs In Tacoma, and
Il will take lot OF good fighting to
wipe that defeat out OF the record
book. Not that Krache Is any bum.
but that Harper was supposed TO
haye been so much better than the
HoQuiam boom man.
