This year will probably be the former light-heavyweight's last ap- pearance within the squared circle he knows so well excepting occas- ions when he may serve as an of- ficial. He admitted in his home here that eighteen years' uninter- rupted fighting on three continents have made him weary of the game. “I intend to quit the ring within a year,” announced Loughran. “I've been in the boxing game since I was a kid of sixteen. I don't feel myself weakening yet, but I am thirty-four years old and it will probably be better for me to get out within a year.” Tommy revealed he is bent upon writing fiction or newspaper sports articles after he retires from the ring. “I've always wanted to be a writer and that’'s what I plan now,” he said. “Fiction is what I fancy most. My ring experiences have furnished me with a vast amount of material that ought to make good copy. I've got a yen, too, to cover important fights for a newspaper syndicate.” 426 470 476—1372 DRAKE 131 *170 177 478 548 502-—1528 Did not bowl. e BOB DOERR ENJOYS HUNTING VACATION PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 23.—Bob- by Doerr, nineteen-year-old second sacker sold to the Boston Red Sox by the San Diego Padres, recently shot a 446-pound bear on his place near the Rogue River in Oregon, and is having the skin made into a rug.
