Knocked horizontal by some ambl-

Their contest at Madison Square

boxing Lesson for the brash young
Levinsky, but it may be something
entirely different.
Leyinsky is husky young slug

no more success against the Phila-

Baer, Ernie Schaaf and others, there
always is a chance the slugger may
come through.
II Levinsky wins it will be the
prize f1stic upset of recent years.
Loughran is a 3-to-1 favorite. But
Tommy is getting old for boxer,
although only 80 years old. He has
been boxing since 1919.
Gene Tunney, starting his career
when Loughran first broke in, won
the world heavyweight title and has
long since retired. In fact, Jack
Sharkey is the only top-notcher of
the present era who broke in be-
fore 1920, and Sharkey has had only
nifty bouts to Loughran's $50.
And Laughran to the contrary,
each and every one of those $50
bouts has taken it's toll.
He still may be good enough to
foil anxious young sluggers but
the day is certain to come when his
speed and skill will lose to some
palooka. And said palooka immedi-
ately will be hailed as champion
ship contender, because he has put
over lucky punch against a man
whom he couldn't have hit with a
handful of shot when Loughran was
