Tell Primo to Go Get a Rep, Then I’ll Fight Him, Says Max

By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, March 2.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

“Loughran should have had about the same chance against Camera as Billy Petrolle would have had in the same ring with me. I figured Carnera would stop him early. I’m glad I didn’t see the fight.” What about Baer's proposed bout with Camera? “Well, Primo ought to go out and get himself a reputation before he fights me. Otherwise he’ll have to agree to take the challenger * share of the gate. I’m the one who’ll pull in the customers.”

The Indiana-Purdue game at Lafayette, and the Notre Dame-Ohio State fracas at South Bend will share the collegiate spotlight tomorrow night.

fight game today were asking: “Will there be a shakeup at Madison Square Garden?” Several who claimed to have “inside” information believed James Joy Johnston, who has been criticised considerably by New York boxing writers after previous matches, will lose his job as boxing director at the Garden. A few predicted an entire new set-up at the punch emporium, which Tex Ricard built. That would mean the skids for every one from President John Reed Kilpatrick on down. Meanwhile, Tommy Loughran, beaten but unbowed, claims that he still can beat Camera. He attributed his defeat to his own poor Judgment and Camera’s rough tactics. In his dressing room last night Tommy explained: “I tried to pace .myself for twelve rounds so that I would be able to stage a whirlwind finish in the last three rounds. I figured to hold things even until the end of the twelfth, and I honestly think I did. But then I couldn't get going, i didn’t have the spurt because Camera’s wrestling and laying on me had worn me down. My foot hurt where he jumped on it twice. The next time I’ll win the early rounds and let the rest take care of itself. Camera will be forced to fight clean.” Camera said he found Loughran easier than he expected. He admitted the Philadelphia dancing master was the best boxer he ever met. but said he couldn't hit. “Never hurt me once.”

Washington looked pretty good in the first few minutes of their tilt with Tech, but the big Green five found their bearings, and with Fias, Hutt and Townsend connecting, held a 11-to-5 margin at the half. It was late in the second quarter before Kasnak connected with Washington's only Held goal of the half. Townsend continued to hit the loop in the second half, making four field baskets, and Woerner tossed in a couple of beauties to help. The ultimate outcome was never in doubt after the first quarter.
