TT might seem that Tommy
Loughran, who after strug-
Cling many months to gain undis-
puted possession of the light
heavyweight title, shouldn't be
unlikely to jeopardize the title SO
soon after getting it.
But it Is not so with Mr..
Loughran. He is going to take
his chances of retaining that title
in a setto that may prove unpleas-
ant early in January with Leo
Lomski.
Just a word about this Lomski
person and you'll realize that he
Is no easy one for a title-hOlder
to risk the title with in a cham
pionship bout.
Lomski, juet a few months past
the voting age, is from Aberdeen,
Wash, and is regarded by the
boys who should know as n of
the most promising young light
heavies in the game.
He is a natural fighter: That is
to say. he loves to mix it up and
he can do it beautifully. He has
lots of endurance, lots of speed, a
wicked punch, and is not afraid of
n man that walks.
In taking on this dangerous
young man, when such was not at
all necessary, Loughran is doing
what he said he would do imme-
diateiy after beating Jimmy Stat
terry.
He said he would be a fighting
champ. And from this start he
is going to be a fighter, although
there is no telling now long he
will be champion if he continues

poneDts.

honor should rest upon the broad
shoulders of Charley Gehringer,

The row hinges around the fact
that the Army has played, and

ing, young men who prior to their
advent to West Point had built
up quite a reputation as football
players at other colleges.
The Navy boys have not gone
exactly that far. They have al
lowed young men who had not
played their. full time at another
college to play that time out upon
arrival at Annapolis. That is to
say, if John Johnson played two
years at Oshkosh College, he
could play n more at Annapolis.
Neither side seems inclined to
weaken from their original stand.
But there seems every reason to
believe that pressure will be
brought from some quarters to
have the two service teams meet.

more than right that they should
