CLEVELAND, July 27.-Tommy
~ Loughran, who proved to the
satisfaction of all the customers
that he was the best 175-pound
fighter in the business, retires as
the light heavyweight champion
and announces that he will devote
his future efforts in an attempt
to win the heavyweight title.
We got the merry berry a year
or so ago when we quoted an in
terview from Jack Britton, the
former welterweight champion
and one OF the best judges of
fighters in the country. He said:

Detr0l. worries DurocheT
There ara a lot of funny COM
plexes that way. When Dutch Reu-
Their used to pitch for Brooklyn and
washington. I used TO hit a lot of
balls right back at him. Once or
twice I thought 1 had injured him
with drives through the boX-and
it got so that every time I faced
Dutch I worried more about driv-
ing balls back through the box than
I did about getting base hits. Leo
Durocher. with US. has a complex
about making errors on the Detroit
grounds. He got away badly there
and now he insists that there's one
field he can't play we'll on. The
result is he worries so much that
he usually does kick one or two
around in every gam at that park.
George PipPras used 10 have
notion that he couldn't pitch IN
Sportsman's park in st. Louis, and
every time he had to start a ball
gone there he was worried.
Fortunately George has won his last
two or three starts there and he's
getting over that one. Al Thomas Of
the White SOx went three seasons
against the Yankees without beating
them in a single game. And he
pitched a lot of fine ball. too. But
II always seemed that the breaks
went against him until it got so,
finally. ne hated to start against us.
Fortunately for Al and unfortunate
" for us. he won his last two starts
against us after four seasons of try
ine-and now I suppose the thing
will swing around the other way
and he'll be tougher than a pine
knot.
Here's Grove Again
For two years Lefty Grove had
only to toss his glove on the mound
and the Yankees would roll over
and play dead. Then for two years
he couldn't seem to get us out. We
beat him more than all the other
clubs in the league. This year it has
switched again and Lefty has been
tough for US. There's no accounting
for things like that. They're just
a part Of baseball.
It's things like that that make
baseball a great game. The more I
see of the game and the players,
the more I'm convinced that the
breaks decide the pennant. For in
stance. the chap who helped us
most last season was Henry john
son, pitcher. Henry had the In
dian sign on the Athletics and when
the going was tough, Henry stepped
in and won six straight starts
against the Macks. Yet Henry
couldn't seem to pitch against the
Browns to save his soul. They'd
beat him regularly-but he had the
AS tossing away their bats every
time he started
I've got a sneaking bunch that
if we get any breaks we'll catch the
Athletes. But there I go again
talking about breaks. No one can
dope the breaks-they happen and
they're either good or bad and
you've got to take them as they
come. That's baseball.

standing of Border
Conditions

Dangers from the passage Of the
Box immigration bill were char
acterized as more important to the
Valleys welfare than any other is
sue now under discussion by Col.
Sam Robertson in a talk before the
Rotary club here Wednesday.
There are now 10000 deportable
Mexicans In the Valley who would

and supply the labor necessary for
further development. These work.
ers have made the Valley what IL
is now. and are absolutely necessary
for its continued growth"
Economic Danger
Discounting the injustice of de-
porting these builders of Valley
prosperity, he called attention to the
economic danger. and urged the
necessity Of some action being taken
to prevent the passage of the bill.
which he denounced as the ol,t-
growth Of misunderstanding Of con-
ditions between the two republics
and the immigration situation along
the border. The plea that the Jobs
would be left for American labor ne
discarded with reminders OF pre-
vious experiences with the type Of
labor which has been coming into
the Valley from the north.
Judge w. II. Ward of Houston, 2
guest OF the club. urged continued
to efforts to procure a deep water
port, regardless OF the exact locn-
ton. citing Houston's experience OF
development all along the ship
channel as showing the value OF
such a project TO the entire locality.
