The jewel is valued| By EDWARD J. (Asscciated Press NEW YORK, Feb. 15— Tommy Loughran, boxing’s fencing master, has a tremendous hunch that Feb- ruary 22, birfhday of George Wash- ington, will bring him to the goal of his 15 years in the ring wars. He fights Primo Carnera, heavy- weight champion, 15 rounds for the title that night in Madison Square Garden’s bowl in Miami, and the historical aspects of the situation {have impressed him as greatly as his own conviction that the bigger his opponents come, the easier they are for him. | Links With Washington Lougtiran was born in Philadel- phia, the “Cradle of Liber in 1902 and he knows by heart such dates as 1774, when Washington NEIL jcame to Philadelphia as a dele-| gate from Virginia to the | Continental Congress, and vhen the Second Congress in on in Philadelphia, made Wash- ;mgton Compander in Chief of the Continental armies. Every Philadelphia schoolboy can |visit the scenes of Washington's )cmssing of the Delaware to strike ' his surprise blow at fhe Hessians in Trenton; Valley ¥ofge and the bitter winter of 1777, the residences where Washington lived 'in the ! winter of 1781-1782 as well as at |times during his eight years as the 'nrsL President of the United States. Temmy’s Good Omen So Loughran, brighter than most prize fighters and a studious chap. looks upon Washington as his good omen, his birthday as the perfect occasion for winning the heavy- weight champion. Althopgh Tommy has reached the middle-age of 32, the usual re- tiring point for ring warriors record and recent performances'in- dicate that he has considerable chance to stage the first major ring upset of the year without the help of history. first 1775, a boxer, though lacking the form- |er heavyweight king’s hitting pow- ers, Loughran has made a special- ty of whipping big men. Beating Ring Giants He never fought Tunney, but the only other two heavyweights he ever had trouble with were Jack Sharkey and Steve Hamas. When Sports Writer) | Tn a class with Gene Tunney as| Loughran Counts on Historical Ghosts to Win Heavyweight Title F ebruary 22 Tommy Loughran hopes o take Primo Carnera in their battle this month for the heavyweight champicnship as Washington took the Hessians. It's a hunch with him because the date of the fight is February 22, and because he was born in Philadelphia, site of many of Washington’s activities as Here he is at Washington's Cressing, N. J.,, where the Centinental troops land- championship in 1929 Sharkey belt- ed him over in three rounds. Later Hamas knocked him out in two. But his revenge has been ample. Last summer he whipped Sharkey in 15 rounds, flooring him once. He has twice outpointed Hamas. But most of his impressive work was done on the real giants of the ring. He gave Max Baer a one-sided licking in 1931, and ©box&T rings around Ernie Schaff, Victorio Cam- polo, Johnny Risko and Paulino Uzcidun. His most recent victory was the most impressive of all. Aft- er suffering a badly cut lip that almost caused the fight to be stop- ped in the sixth round, he came on to befuddle Ray Impeliittiere, a huge fellow of Carnera's size, in 10 rounds several weeks ago. “BILL” JONES LIKES BATON ROUGE, La., Feb. 15— Casting his eye over the 1934 foot- |ball material at Louisiana State | University, Coach “Biff” Jones has picked Garland Pickett, 217 pounds, for a try at tackle to replace the ponderous Jack Torrance, whose eli- gibility has expired.

BOX M <IND A LITTLE CHILD <IN & OF_CANDY- SHE S~ WELL-THE CHILDS MOTHER 1S SENDING HER LITTLE SISTER TO KEEP HER COMPANY- By something approximating a terrific struggle, it would seem, the boxing department of the Madi- son Square Garden corporation has maintained its traditional hold on the conduct of heavyweight cham- pionship match-making. The legacy that the | Rickard left to his been somewhat dissipated by an | accumulation of circumstances, mis- late Tex ;dustry, tenaciously to the remnants of the factor that played the biggest part in Rickard's success as a promot- er, With something of the fortitude i | characteristic of a group of Gala- hads, the Garden Grenadiers arc promoting the forthcoming cham- plonship test of skill and brawn be- tween Tommy Loughran, a like- able but slightly shopworn expon- |ent of the left jab, and Primo Car- nera, a toothy mammouth, down in Miami. As a title affair, it is no more lopsided on the surface than the Dempsey-Willard match in Toledo, the main difference being that the smaller Dempsey could hit harder than a whole lorry-load of Lough- rans. As a spectacle it is not only a far cry from the extravaganzas of the Rickardian era but scarcely | comparable to some of the built- up matches of other, palmier days. Five years ago, in Miami Beach, Jack Sharkey and Young Stribling | fought for their share of a $400,- 000 gate, twice as much as the last title match drew in New York, the Carnera-Sharkey bout last sum- mer. Five years ago, Loughran and ‘Carnera would probably have drawn just as much, not because they of- fered prospects of any greater ex- citement in the ring, but simply because people were that careless lof how they spent money. A TUMBLING HOUSE While the Garden directorate en- joys the restful climate of the | southland, hopeful that some profit | will accrue from the winter's fistic |enterprises there, the fact is that the boxing house Rickard buxlt is rapidly crumbling. ! The only logical heavywel;.'ht ti- match this year is between Car- |nera and Max Baer but the Garden can't arrange it, without cutting in the 0ld man mauler and money- maker, Jack Dempsey, at a sub- | stantial figure. The Garden mean- while intends to use King Levin- sky, the voluble fish peddler, as |an alternate in the buildup busi- | ness. The Garden has seen rival pro- plums, otherwise, incluaing the ‘Bzmey Ross-Billy Petrolle sellout, dnd now is on the outside looking |in while the opposition ‘arranges one of the best matches of the »ear—a bout between Ross, the |lightweight titleholder, and Jimmy McLarnin, king of welter- | weights who has neer before |fought in New York for anyone |except the Garden. | RED INK BONANZA It’s all very strange and compli- cated even for the insiders to try to figure out, although it is obvious that politics and personalities are involved in blocking the proprie- tors of the $6,000000 arena on Eighth Avenue.

WATCHING AUSTRIA LONDON, Feb. 15. — European Governments with one eye on their own internal affairs, watched Aus- tria with the other eye.

German newspapers expressed re- sentment today against Austrian Chancellor Dollfuss because he ap- pealed to his people to aid the Government.
