AMBERS LOSES TO MONTANEZ Lightweight Champion Is Defeated In NonTitle Bout New York. April 6 —(UP) —It wan a clone fight and the Gallery ites; thought lightweight champion lain I Ambers had won. but referee and Judges unanimously agreed that Pedro Montenez, Puerto Rican, had earned the 10-round decision. The Herkimer Hurricane's title was on the line because both fighters were over the 135-pound limit’ last night, but there was little doubt that l-ou would etill be wearing the crown had the battle gone th 3 15-round championship distance. Montanez weighed 136's; Ambers' 137. Montanex's powerful body attack piled him up a huge margin in the first half of the fight, but Ambers' strong finish had the Puerto Rican groggy at the final bell. He won the sixth, seventh, eighth and tenth roundel easily and appeared as fresh as at the start, while .Montanez was both leg and arm weary. Victory for Pedro v, as supposed to mean a title bout thia summer, but I Madison Square Garden promoter’ Jimmy Johnston indicated that the flashy islander would have to meet the winner of the May 7 AmberaTony Canzoneri chanvpionship | match in another "over-the weight" | 12-round battle before he would get a title shot. Few of the 17.000 fans, who paid 154.257 to see the fight, realized what a terrific body barage Ambers absorbed in the first five rounda. ■ All they could see was Montanez's head bobbing back and forth as Lou shot home those rapid inside right uppercuts. To the referee and judges. Montanez’s blows appeared to do more damage than Ambers' although there were less of them. Lou hit the canvas in the first round, but was up with no count, and said afterwards he slipped. Montanez’s best round was the third 1 when he rocked the champion with two hard rights that left him a lit- ' tie groggy. o- • « Today’s Sport Parade (By Henry McLemore) Pinehurst, N. C., Apr. 6. —(U.PJ— Two days ago. in one of the most brilliant monographs ever to tlow ; from my pen laud when I say. ' flow from my pen ' I mean "hatu rnered from my portable") I renounced professional baseball and adopted golf as my career. Yesterday 1 played in my first important tournament — the north and south championship at Pinehurst. Knowing that it would be bad taste to describe my own round. 1 arranged to have a Linde. Fowler of the Boston Transcript, the dean of American golf writers, play with me and report my pro-j gress. Mr. Fowler has reported golf for. 37 years and in that span has witnessed 62 national championships, seven Walker cup matches, numer- 1 ous Ryder cup engagements, and. known intimately such masters as Harry Vardon. Ted Ray, James Braid. J. H. Taylor, Alex Herd.’ George Duncan. Abe Mitchell,’ Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen —in fact all the golfing greats. As we walked from the IStli green, after sinking long, curling downhill —and fourth — putts. Mr. > Fowler paid me a compliment I al-, ways will cherish. "I have seen them all," he said. ’ "but you're in a class by yourself.' His report of my round follows: | "Somebody once said, 'until you've had delirium tremens you ain't seen nothing.' I say. ‘until ! 1 you’ve seen McLemore play golf. 1 you ain't seen delirium tremens.' "He and I played in the qualifying round ot the north and south championship' and led the field quite ?. while, for we started at 7:30 a. m„ finished at 10:01, so far ahead ot the next pair that many thought we had picked up at the ninth. “We should have. "Actually, we ,*d play the full eighteen and passed in our customary returns, N. C., which in any other state means 'no card,' but down here means "North Carolina. McLemore thought it would be best not to have the cards posted because most of the field had not

started by the time we finished, and if the others saw our scores they would consider the course too difficult and not play. "It is a shame he is not equally considerate of the shrubbevy, birds, and trees on the course. ; "Ordinarily I am a pretty fair I golfer, never more than 110 under' good conditions, and usually a stroke or two better in competition. But I couldn't keep my mind on my game. 1 was too fascinated watching my partner. He spends three minutes on every tee fixing his grip. His process is much akin to a piccolo player fingering the portholes. Once the fingers are quiescent, the footwork begins/ Placing his feet for a stance, McLemore does a dance that Fred Astaire couldn't manage, even if stung by a bee. It is a cross between a rumba, the double shuffle, and pure restlessness. "I have it from McLemore that he is looking for a professional ! berth in golf. He wants to be the professional at some club. This is wise, because he can't play. Maybe he ca nteaeh. Certainly he can l if there is a field for a teaching pro whose motto is ‘watch me and do it some other Way.' “In summing up his game 1 would say it is unusual. There's nothing like it anywhere else in the world. For that every greens keeper in the world should be (thankful. He can do more damage: to turf in five minutes than 3.000 j Japanese beetles, working in relays, can do in a year.” Thank you. Mr. Fowler, but if I had been watching the greatest i ; players in the world for 37 years, and still had to name the explosion shot off the tee as my best stroke. I would not critizize a new comer, who, despite your discouragement, some day will sweep across the , golfing heavens like a subway train.

LAWYER FIGHTS COURT REFORM Ex - President Ot New York Bar Opposes Court Bill Washington. April 6 — (UP) — | Charles C. Burlingham. former New t York Bar President, told the eouale 1 ' judiciary committee today that lib- 1 erals. radicals, and labor "may curse > the day" when Pieaiident Roosevelt's judiciary program was conceived. Burlingham said that he could i' think of only one other attorney general—whom I will not name—- ’ who would not have resigned rather than condone or have any part or lot I in such a shabby enterprise" aa the court bill. Ajldreesing the committee as "an old fashioned lawyer," the New York attorney said that an an admirer of the President he could not reI train from saying that Mr. Ro<»evelt "has made a great blunder" and 1 should retrace his steps. He urged a constitutional amendment for compulsory retirement of I justices such as the amendment pro- ; posed by Sen. Edward R Burke. D, 1 Nebr., court plan foe Burlingham presented Ms views as administration leaders opposed I efforts by court plan foes to subI stitute a constitutional amendment . for the judiciary -program. They in sisted on consideration of the court ’ plan before any constiulonal amendmen is taken up. Burlingham asked why there was "mwstery" about the authorship of I the present court bill, pointing out that nobody knows who wrote it. He recalled the old system of making important appointments "at j the King’s pleasure” and said that such a system was "more than our ’ forefathers could endure.” To fail to keep the courts beyond ’the possibility of political prunura, I he said, was to undermine the independence of the judiciary. But the great danger, he continued, lay in the fact that Mr Roosevelt "is not the last president of the United States” and that "not all i of the Huey Longs are dead." "I am not one of those who imagine that the President is reach- | ing for more power to make him- ’ self dictator.” he said. “That is absurd and unthinkable. “But Franklin D. Roosevelt is not the last President of the United ’Slates; there will be others. I "All the Huey Longs are not dead, and as the political pendulum I swings we may have reactionary Presidents and reactionary Senators who with his ‘bill as a precedent may make a new court responsive to their will, and liberals and radicals, and labor, too. may curse the day I when the Roosevelt bill was con- ’ ceived.
