‘Too Bad He Cak't Hit/"

Tommy Louehran. South Philadeinhi* aspirant for the light heavyweight boxinp crown, was given the decision over Georges Carpentier. ‘That statement is something similar to ine we made to a friend last Thursday evening after listening to the fight over the radio. ‘Teh? Too bad he can’t hit or he would have had a knockout, probably." was the comment. All of which caused us to io a little thinking and wondering. We didn't see the fight the other evening, but we‘did see Tommy battle King Solomon at the Arena last winter. Solomon W»' •• ff'cen pounds heavier than the Philadelphia boy, but tight iioju the beginning Lough ran started cutting him up with that punishing lett jab. Solomon was outclassed. The elusive Tommy was usually everywhere else in the ring but wh -re his opponent was ■winging, dodginf in and out and plastering Solomon's face continuously until the red was flowing freely and the eyes looked ■lightly abnormaL

But r» tfite of the ma.iner in which Lotghm toyed with his opponent he was unable to 'put him away. He hit him eon tin ua"y ttnd won the decision, but none of the blows really hart. m o • o » "Go Get Berlekbach"

"Go get Berlcnbach' is reputed to be the statement made by Loughran after his bout with :V famous Frenchman last Thursday craving. This was the cause of more thinking. What would happen if Tommy did run into Berlenhach? The South Philadelphia Adonis is a boxer, there a no denying that. We were reading a story by one of the better Philadelphia writers, who should know his stuff, in which Loughran was called the "fastest, dcvecest light heavyweight in the land.” There may be some who will consider the statement a little too broad, but everyone must admit that as a boxer Tommy is no slouch. During the past few months the Philadelphia writers have bfcen sending out stories rematting long and loudly about the great change in the fighting style of Loughran, claiming that he is no ' longer only a clever defensive boxer, but has suddenly become a j fighter and deffeloped a powerful punch. a This all may be true, but it is hard for us to picture Tommy getting over a knockout punch on such a fighter as Berlcnbach. Stribling. too, is something of a boxer and possesses something of a punch, but in his recent scrap with the champion he was forced to hold on during the biggest part of the light after Berley had connected for a blow over the heait.
