Lomski sent that roaring right flush against Tommy's chin in the first round of their battle at Madison Square Garden. But Loughran got up, calmly at nine, the ghost of a silly smile flitting across his fighting face. Lomski came on again with an ir- restlble attack, driving the new light heavyweight champion from corner to corner, finally flooring him again. Could he get up this time? yes, he could.
