LOUGHRAN MASTER
OF SLUGGING TUFFY
Scores Seventh Victory in
Drive for Heavyweight
Boxing Crown.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
~HICAGO, March 2S.-Tommy
Loughran, the master of boxing
from Philadelphia, is still at
large on his ambitious raid
through the ranks of the heavyweights
and his latest victim is Tough Gerald
Ambrose Grifiths of Sioux City, Iowa.
Loughran, with IL years of cam
paigning behind him, last night gave
the youthful Grifhths a boxing lesson
in 10 rounds, in the feature event OF
the Chicago StadiumS second ami
versary show, to add the Iowan to a
list of seven straight conquests, which
included Max Baer, Ernie Schaaf, DICK
Daniels and King Levinsky. The task
was a little more difficult than usual,
however, for the weaving, bobbing
Grifiths offered a poor target during
the first four rounds, and the decision
was not unanimous. The judges cast
their votes for the former light-heavy-
weight champion, while Referee Dave
Barry called 1t draw.
Crowd Is Satisfied.
The customers, of whom there were
lo,lz4 WHO PAID, leaving 200, az blAS
gates, were satisfied with the decision,
and ringside observers believed that
Loughran had built up a substantial
margin.
Grifnths made q great start, plaster
ing Loughran about the ring in the
first round and gaining distinct edge.
The second was even, and from there
on Loughran continued to move out in
front. The tough enc made the fight
and did everything he could to reach
Loughran. He tried to get around that
long left hand and attempted to get
under it without success. He finally
tried to pile through 1t and took neat
leatherfng for his efforts.
Tommy used his right hand more
frequently than usual employing a
right uppercut that served to bring
Grifiths' rushes up short on several oc-
casions. Grifiths never was in danger
and kept piling in, even in the closing
rounds when Loughran's ringcraft
made him look rather awkward.
Griffiths had slight weight advan-
tage, scaling 1877 pounds yesterday
afternoon to 1873 for the expert Phila-
delnhian
