YORK, Aujr. 2.—Rip Van Winkle stirred from his lonp sleep, took a walk and by chance found himself sitting 1 in a ringside seat in the stadium at Freeport, L. 1., last night. The old pent rubbed his weary eyes with gnarled knuckles as he beheld the vision of two fairly iaige paities throwing gloves at each other. “Who’s them guvs?’ he asked, adapting himself to the cultural spirit of his surroundings. “The blubbery guy is Risko. The other guy is Loughran,” he was told. “Gracious me?” exclaimed the old gent. “Risko and Loughran ! Why, they were fighting before I dozed off many, many years ago— *’ IT eems that long at that. R. ico and Loughran are ancients of the rmg. and yet they are only 32 year old. But they have spent almost half th<-;r lives between the ropes and mostly battling each other. They were meeting last night for the fifth time. At * ne t.me o- a:.'.’:.'-:- both Hi Ico and Loughran have been reasonab’v clow to the heavyweight championship, but something always happened to defeat their ambit tons. Curiously, both of them beat Max Baer before he won the championship They beat other good fighters too. but the chip.' were never down I mean there was nothing serious at stake. mam mum IT is po' ;ble to build up a strong sentimental case for both Risko and Loughran in connection with their thwarted hopes, but I suspect the answer in ?he final summation is that they didn't have enough-on the ball to get it past the hitter. I 'aw R.-ko fight Tunnev nme months belore the New Yorker won the championship from Dempsey and while he put up a brave, earnest effort, he was hopeless ]v outclassed—and that night Tunnev was fighting with m e hand A break in his right hand was just mending and he refused to take a chance with it. Loughran had he gotten the chance might have beaten the faded, mentally-harassed Dempsev at Philadelphia, but I doubt it. Loughran did show Dempsev up in training a few weeks before the fight, but I question if he was strong"enough at that, time to have lasted ten rounds against the Man Mauler, bad as he was. m m a mam IN speculating on what Loughran might have done against Dempsev tha’ night, it must be remembered that Tunnev came into the ring perfectly conditioned, strong as an oak. and supremely confident. Which was one of the reasons why Dempsev looked so futile. Against lesser opposition ne might not have looked so futile. But be that as it may—to quote Christopher Morley—Risko and Loughran have done very well as their careers stand to date. Neither they nor their intimates should feel tempted to end it all in uncontrollable anguish over tlieir failure to win the championship. It is quite conceivable that they got as close to it as they deserved. After all. a numbei of other fine fighters went through long campaigns without winning a championship Peter Jackson for one. Tom Sharkey for another. Joe Choynski for a third. And there are old timers today who would laugh if you mentioned Risko or Loughran in the same clove-scented breath with any of the three. 808 B tt B SOONER or later the cream always comes to the top—and when it doesn't you can be moderately sure not all of it is erram. Charlie White was one of the hardest hitting lightweights the ring ever had. He had tour or five shots at the championship. He failed because he lacked a tactical nnnd; he couldn't think his way out of a tight spot. For all you hear about what sinister miracles a cunning manager can perform, the records show- that the best fighter of his day is the one who holds he championship Certainly men like Sullivan. Corbett. Fitzsimmons Jeffries. Johnson. Willard 'yes. e\en Willard;. Dempsey and Tunnev ruled alone.

INDIANAPOLIS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 2, 1934

It was see-saw struggle from the beginning. The Brewers tallied three runs in the second stanza and the Tribesmen bounced back with a cluster of three in their half of the same round, in the third the home nine chalked another marker and two in the fifth. Brewers Knot Count The Brewers got under way again in the sixth and tallied three times to knot the count at 6 and 6. In the seventh the visitors scored again and the Redskins became aroused and staged a three-run splurge, giving them the lead, 9 to 7. The battle went into the ninth with the Hoosiers holding a two-run advantage, but after Kloza and Storti struck out Ted Gullic powdered the pellet over the left field wall. Ernie Wingard “teed off,’’ but the ball stayed in the park and Harry Rosenberg went to deep center and snatched the sphere to end the game. Vincent Sherlock. Tribe secondsacker, batted in four runs, giving him seven runs batted in for the two tilts against the Brewers. Johnny Riddle batted in three markers and Lee and Weinert one each. Ted Gullic bagged four hits for Milwaukee and Marshall and Kubck helped their averages by getting three each. The Brewer shortstop, Marshall, batted in four runs. Busy Night for Rosie Harry Rosenberg poled two hits and walked three times. The Tribe flychaser crossed the plate four times. He hit for three sacks in the third canto and for two bases in the fifth. Stine opened on the Milwaukee mound and retired in the third in favor of Slim Harriss. Laskowski batted for Harriss in the sixth and Hutchinson took up the mound toil for Allan Sothoron’s team. Rensa pinch hit for Hutchinson in the eighth and Cohen finished out the game on the Milwaukee slab. Paid attendance was 3,777, and 4,062 women were guests of the Indians. It was Knothole night, and about three thousand lads were on hand. The C. M. T. C. boys from Ft. Benjamin Harrison also were guests of the club, and about five hundred viewed the game. Total attendance was more than eleven thousand. A foul ball off the bat of Tony Cotelle skipped into the Indian dugout last night and floored pitcher A1 Butzberger. Butzie was knocked cold. He revived when the Indian and Brewer players applied ice to his head. “Washington night,” in honor of Mt. Vernon George Washington, Tribe slugger and leading hitter of the American Association, will be celebrated at Perry stadium Thursday night, Aug. 9. St. Paul will be the visiting attraction. Mr. G. Wash got two hits in four trips last night. V. Sherlock went back of second in the second stanza last night, snared Stine's grounder and flipped to Lee, retiring Kubek. Marshall’s double in the sixth cleaned the bases. With the bags hcoked. he hit the first ball pitched to right field. He is a thorn to the Indians, collecting six hits in two games. Extra base hits kept the outfielders on the go. Doubles w-ere hit by Gullic, Riddle. V. Sherlock. Rosenberg and Weinert, Rosenberg blasted a triple and Gullic and Kloza poled home runs. Washington was too ambitious in the eighth and was tagged out after passing second on Bedore's single. George was too late in scrambling back to the sack.
