Barker (Associated Press Sports Writer) NEW YORK, May 16 Oh Back Into , the front rank of the heavyweight ( brigade today strode Philadelphia's giant Kiiier, lunuiiy ixjuguran, ior- mer King or an tne lYo-pounders. I - He spotted Vic tor lo Campolo nearly 50 pounds In weight and seven Inches In height and then did everything out KnoCK out me eouin American giant in their ten round bout In Madison Square Garden last night. Tommy received the unanimous ver dict of the referee and two judges and an ovation from the crowd of 10.000. The victory put Loughran back In the high place he held in the heavy weight picture before he was stopped by Jack Sharkey two years ago. He now must be given equality with Sharkey, Max Schmellng and Young Strlbllng and probably will figure In one of the big outdoor heavy weight shows this summer. Caiiipulo LiMHH out Campolo seems to have lost his chance of edging into the picture. He made a sorry showing against the nimble, smart Loughran and at the end was much more tired than his littlo conqueror. Caught napping by Campolo's opening rush. Tommy took plenty of body punishment throughout the opening stanza. That round, and l tne ninth, were the only ones that . L-ampoio won. j Campolo had been labelled a heavy rignt nana puncner but Tommy took shls best punches without waverlnir perceptibly.. And Tommy, notoriously one oi uie ngntesc n liters in tne business, several times nearly floored the giant with straight rights that landed on Campolo's chin as he floundered In. ; In the eighth round, the rivals collided head-on and Loughran came out with a deep cut over his left eye. Blood poured from the wound as Campolo carried ;he fight to the Philudelphtun in the ninth round and Tommy took a bad beating be fore the bell came to his rescue. In tho lust round he drew blood from Campolo's nose with a hard right Just before the final bell. Loughran weighed 184 pounds; Campolo 232.
