Bigger Class Boston, May 25 (P — Tommy Loughran, light heavyweight cham- pion, today appeared entitled to rank himself as a serious contender for higher fistic honors as a result of his victéry over Ernie Schaat of Roston, easily a fromt rank heavyweight. Loughran’s wonderful left jab kept the Bostonian far enough oft balance to prevent him from landing a kneckout punch and this weapon appeared impressive enough to be effective against any of the present heavyweight cron. Loughran has admitted that he intended to quit the 176 pound class after defending his title against Jimmy Braddock next month, Schaat fought a well-planned bat- tle last night. He centered on the champion's body during the early rounds and succeeded in landing many stif punches, These were hard enough to redden Loughran’s True, Jehnny Risko gained a cl cut win ever him in New York and yeu can't deny Schmeling knecked eout this same Johnny Riske.
