Saga Of A Fighier Murphy Licked 'Em All But Never Won A Title NEW YORK, Feb. 6 (N E A ) Crowding 62, Harlem Tommy Murphy Is little less lively and much more mischievous than when he was the champion of near champions in the days of great fighters. There wasn't too much money around when Murphy was the perfect club fighter In 130-odd mutches over a period of 12 years, 1903-14, Inclusive, but the lantern-Jawed Irishman got his share of what there was and is comfortably fixed. As proud as ever, Murphy goes to work daily as a main tenance man In a Brooklyn 7 shipyard, Is an independent in surance broker and during the war taught boxing to trainees at Fordham and New York uni versity. He has a married daughter, but Uvea alone as a permanent guest at tne largest of Brooklyn's hotels. He still peppers unsuspecting strangers with No. 0 bee bee shot from between his teeth, at which he has long been an artist. Murphy was rough and rug ged. He could punch a bit, wus hard to hurt, always crowding. He never turned In a bad fight. He sidled through the hemp for only one purpose to win and when he dldn l ne was trying to the last. Champions steered clear of him until they lost their titles. Willie Ritchie being the only one to give mm a crack at a crown. The chance came too late. Murphy was only 29, but broke in at 17, and the- pace and competition took a lot out of fighters in his day. He was in the sere and yellow of nis illustrious career when he lost to Ritchie in 20 hard-fought rounds In, San Francisco, April 17, 1914. He made just one more fight, retired six months later. Ex-champions who felt the thud of Murphy's fists were At tell five times, Dixon, McGov ern, Young Corbett, Harry Har ris and Wolgast thrice. He tackled such as Benny Yangcr, Spike Robson three times, Mat ty Baldwin three times, Fight ing Dick Hyland twice, Cross thrice, McFarland four times, Owen Moran four times, K. O. Valentine Brown three times and Beecher. He waa as good at 20 rounds as he was at six. Murphy fought Abe Attcll two 20-rounders, won the first, the second ending in a draw and still considered by old timers in California as the gori est. battle ever fought. - Too heavy for the feather weight class, too light for the lightweights throughout the greater part of his career, Har lem Tommy Murphy developed into the toughest of the .trial horses.
