GASTANAGA TARGET.
Of LOUGHRAN'S ART
Veteran Gives K. O. Foe Lone
Opening and Peppers Him

)HICAGO, April 22.-Prof.
I Tommy Loughran of Phila-
~ delphia, not quite so spry
as he was, still is good
enough to give some of the
younger fighters fancy boxing
lessons.
Loughran, nearing his s1st
birthday, gave one of his most
convincing demonstrations last
night in the Chicago Stadium.
Isidoro Gastanaga, 24-year-old
clouter from Spain, was the other
party to the exhibition and re-
ceived a trimming in 10 rounds
that left no doubt that there is
still quite a lot of good in the
Loughran boxing machine.
For 10 rounds Gastanaga, with his
record of Is one-round knockouts, tried
to get close enough to land real punch
The best he could do was to come close
for couple of seconds in the ninth
found. Outside of that one time, Lough-
ran peppered his face with straight let's,
chopped him with right crosses and
Strengthened him out of his crouch with
stiff uppercuts.
A GAINST the Spaniard's free-swing-
IA ing style. Loughrans routine APP
peared to excellent advantage.
Icy never stopped trying to find a way
around or through it, but before the
bout was three rounds gone, he was a
puzzled and bewildered young man. In
the fifth round Loughran drilled his left
into Gastanaga's face five times without
return and finished the rally by
smashing short right to the jaw Gas
tanaga went to his hands and knees,
but bounced up without a count.
LCughran's only bad moment came
early in the ninth. Gastanaga crowded
him to the ropes and before he could
work mis- way out. the Spaniard dropped
right on his chin. Tommy grabbed
the top rope for an instant, but recov-
cred and went back into his routine.
Loughran weighed l85 pounds. Gasta-
maya scaled 189
Hans Birkie. San Francisco German
heavyweight, knocked Otto Won Porat
OF Norway down in the first few seconds
OF the first round of their lO-round
semifinal, but Otto rallied and fought
his way to gain the decision.

TAKING OFF WEIGHT
Shed 2T4 Pounds in 8 Hours,
Beat La Barba-NoW 1874.
to Do 1926 for "Keed."
BY WILBUR WOOD.

n JEW YORK, April 22.-"He
M looks big for a feather
/ y weight" commented Luis
Gutierrez, as he got his
first peek at Seaman Tom Watson
IN Jimmy Johnston's Madison
Square Garden Office. Watson had
just arrived on the Olympic. The
English champion is to box
Gutierrez's pride and joy, Kid
Chocolate, for the world title in
the Garden on May IL.
Watson does look big for a feather
weight. His large head heightens the
impression that he is too big to be a
natural featherweight. However, the
Seaman takes salty oath that he will
do 126 pounds without any i'll effects.
He scales 1874 right now.
WHEN Watson weighed in at 2 o'clock
w in the afternoon for his affair with
Fidel La Barba last Winter the
figure was 1874. He didn't seem to be
carrying an ounce Of extra weight. In
truth, he had worked off two and a
quarter pounds in three hours to get
down to the weight set for that fight,
1913 pounds. Still. when he boxed that
night the last-minute reduction seemed
to have done him no harm. He grew
stronger as the bout progressed.
That night the Seaman scored tri-
umph akin to that achieved by Jack
kid Berg in his first appearance here.
Just as the customers had expected to
see Bruce Flowers wipe up the ring
with Berg SO had they expected La
5arba to make chopping block Of
Watson. The Seaman had shaped up
dlsmally in the gymnasium So WHEN
Watson scored over La Barba. coming
from behind after very rocky start,
he made himself solid with the fans.
WATSON had come over to box
w Chocolate, but when the Keed
was turned back at Key West be-
cause he had no permit to enter the
country. La Barba was substituted as
the Britishers opponent.
A Chocolate-Watson match was "thot"
after the seaman aroused all that en-
thusiasm by beating La Barba. The
bout probably would have done much
better then, in a financial way, than
it will on May IL. But it couldn't
be made. Fer one thing. Chocolate
was in no Murray to make another
effort to get into the country For
another thing. the seaman was deter
mined to get back to his wife, his three
kiddies and his job as bartender at q
Newcastle pub.
This time Watson is prepared to re-
main fer five CT six months, whether
he wins or lcses in the brswl with
Chocolate That first trip was merely
reconnaissance.

~ OMPLETELY satisfied with the
manner in which the Spring
" edition Of the 1888 Rock Creek
Park open went off, B. Harry
Graham, the up and coming manager
Of the popular uptown golf course To-
Gated in the park fringing on Sixteenth
street, is planning a further series of
similar Journeys to embrace both the
golfers of the male persuasion and
those of the gentler sex.
So pleased were both Graham and
Public Course Concessionnaire S. G.
Leoff1er with the interest shown by the
golfers of the public parks that both
CT them are all for holding more and
better tournaments at both Rock Creek
Park and East Potomac Park But
Graham has the edge on AL Farr at
East Potomac. He has started the
season off with bang and plans fur
ther and better events, one Of them
being in contemplation for some tim,
during May. If this is successful he
also plans to put on a women's tourney,
which may become the women's pub
lie links championship.
THE final match in the initial Rock
i Creek open" found Rock Greek
battling East Potomac Park, with
Johnny Connolly the 18-year-old Roose-
welt High School student. ably uphold
ing the honor of the uptown park by
soundly trouncirg Ralph Bonnie, East
Potomac Park veteran. Bonnie, who
has been a star in many sports and
was headliner at basket ball during
the Winter with the Aero Eagles team.
did not go down without a scrap, but
Connolly's steady game was too much
for the tall Potomac Park star Johnny
chung closely to par en- every hole of
the first nine, with the sole exception
of the ninth. where he had a BRAIN
storm and took four puts, enabling
Bonnie to win with par 4. At this
point Connolly was l up with a 81.
But the youngster quickly turned on
the heat and winning the long uphill
fifteenth with he annexed the match
by 4 and 3. The only extra hole con-
test of the final day found the veteran
Harry Allen, West Potomac Park cham
pion, trouncing c. S. Brunswick, who
used to register from Beaver Dam. on
the nineteenth hole, in the second flight
final, where Brunswick was short with
a pitch and took to Aliens par 4.
Otner results were. InlrQ night, Alex
P. Hare defeated r. Melbourne, 3 and 2;
fourth flight. j. Enright defeated C.
Vernon, and S; L. B. Byers defeated
F. Phillips, 3 and 2.
George Malloy, the sorrel-thatched
Columbia caddie, who holds the city
title, won the play-of for the qualifying
medal with an approximate 80. w. w.
Seay, with whom he tied in the quail
fication round on Tuesday, picked up
his ball on the seventeenth hole when
it went far astray at the right of the
green.
John Connolly. by his victory yes
terday, winning the initial public links
tourney Of the year from field which
included the champion and last years

potent threat to win more public parks
