At Best Against Lomski.

4 FTER he graduated to the middle
n and light heavyweight classes,
Loughran showed his best form
in boxing such men as Harry Greb,
Georges Carpenter, Mike McTigue and
Gene Tunney. The Hght-heavyweigh
division began to show signs of decay
after Jack Delaney gave up the title
to try his skill against Tom Heeney
and Jack Sharkey. Loughran claimed
the title after winning over McTIgue,
but was ordered to fight Jimmy Slat-
terry. His victory over the Buffalo
fash clinched the title.
Loughrans first defense of his newly
Won honors was against Leo Lomskl.
In this fight Tommy rose to what
appears to be the highest point reached
in his long career. LonSki tore out
soon after the bell sounded and dropped
Tommy with right to the jaw. Dazed
and tottering around on rubbery legs,
the Philadelphian was battered all over
the ring fully two minutes before an
other crushing right sent him down for
another nine count. Loughran man
aged to get up and last out the round.
Boxing instinct alone saved him, as he
fenced superblv until his head cleared
during the next four rounds. From
then on he sliced and cuffed Lomski
every time the latter attempted to score
with wild swings and finished up with
an amazing burst of speed that earned
him the decision.
Loughran defended his title two more
times before he challenged Sharkey for
the American heavyweight crown
Mickey Walker and James J. Braddock
were his opponents. Again his superior
defensive and boxing tactics saved him.
Walker ripped and slashed at Tommy
for 10 rounds. but could not penetrate
beyond the champions long left jabs.
Braddock was no match for the skillful
Philadelphian.
Loughran has had his innings. He
has been able to go along during the
past two years against a poor lot of
heavies with titular pretensions. Box
ing seems to be lost art among the
big fellows. Too much reliance has
been placed on the wallop, so the clever
Loughran has been able to outscore the
crude though willing fighters.

HOUSTON. Tex, october Al
though the Shaughnessy play-off
system used in the Texas League
this season cost his Houston Bpffaloes
their chance to play in the Dixie series,
President Fred Ankenman says he still
is strong for the scheme.
Houston was out of first place only
seven days during the Summer and
would have won the pennant under the
usual percentage plan of reckoning. As
is was, the Bluffs lost out IN a play
off series with San Antonio, fourth in
games won and lost.
These are not ordinary times" An
kenman pointed out, land while the
Shaughnessy system cost our club dear
ly, it meant financial salvation for
Others"
Ankenman was one of the active
hackers of the play-off plan when it
was up for consideration by the league,
contending it would stimulate fan in

circuit.
