Thumping Fists of Canzoneri, King of Lightweights, Writing Mitt History

BY CLAIRE BURCKY ( NEA Service Sports Writer New YORK. Dec. 26.—There was Jack McAulifle, who ruled the roost through nine rough years and retired undefeated in 1893. There was Joe Gans, outspeeding I them afoot and blinding them with i leather for seven bitter years. There was Benny Leonard, who, j when he couldn’t out-punch thrm ■or out-speed them, out-tricked ! them for almost eight seasons and : retired undefeated. Anri now it’s Tony CanzOneri, combining some of the craftiness that distinguished each of those former idols. There may be protests at the comparison. But protests or none the little Brooklyn Italian as featherweight, then lightweight and junior welterweight champion, goes down in my book as one of the greatest 135-pound fighting men. u St ON the wall of a small New Orleans fight club is tacked the picture of a grinning little man in fighting togs receiving a silver lovi ing cup from a middle-aged man i dressed in white flannels and 1 brown and white sport oxfords.

The President's strange decision came as a result of a little girl's appeal. The little gin was Grace Bedell, living in the western part of New York state, in December, 1860. Lincoln, whose yearning for a baby daughter in the family was unfulfilled, was moved strangely by the request to wear a beard, and acted on it at once. In later years the President frequently referred to his facial adornment as

B’l United Press BROOKLYN, Dec. 26.—The New York Giants and the Hakoah All Stars changed places in the race for the championship of the American Soccer League Friday, when the Giants defeated their rivals by 3 to 1 before a holiday crowd at commercial field in Brooklyn.

A doctor examining the boys that night said Tony had a weak heart and should not go on. “I didn't know what to do. Tony’s father had said he could fight, and if "he didn’t his mother would have |to know Tvhy. If I told her, she'd I have blamed it on boxing and only worried more. “But Dr. Gomila, present city commisisoner of New Orleans, saved the day for me and perhaps saved Tony Canzoneri for the boxj ing world.

RETAIL SALES FULLY UP TO EXPECTATIONS German Situation Foremost Problem Now Before Bankers. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Dec. 26.—A1l financial and commodity markets remainded closed today for an extended Christmas vacation. They will reopen Monday. Trading in the short week, which ended Thursday, was very light. Prices moved irregularly in a narrow range, losing a few points in the averages for the period. While year-end operations made for irregularity, there appeared to be a better feeling as far as the future wa.s concerned. Believes End in Sight Many observers believed the end of the depression was in sight and that 1932 would witness improvement. The outstanding problem before the financial world was the German situation. The British were believed to be working out their own difficulties and the Manchurian trouble was apparently losing force so far i as the stock market was concerned. As the year drew to a close, the statistics of the major industries’ showed declines for seasonal reasons. Steel, electric, oil operations were lower; car loadings declined, and several banks failed. Retail Sales Good A bright spot was a good volume of retail sales as a result of the Christmas holiday. These sales, reports said, were up to expectations. Another bright spot was the decision of many bankers to buy bonds. This was particularly bullish in that it was held the stock market could not rise with bonds weak. Railroad bonds improved and their rise steadied the stock list in several sessions. John D. Rockefeller Sr. told the i United Press Thursday that the | peak of the depression had passed 1 and that improvement could be looked for. That statement was considered highly significant but it came at a time when holiday considerations were of more import than immediate news and the mar- ; ket did not respond to it.

Fatalities Gain; State Nine-Month Toll 874. CHICAGO, Dec. 22.—The automobile. which has brought joy and comfort to millions of persons, brought death to an increasing number in 1931, a United Press survey disclosed today. Reports from twenty-seven states and twelve representative cities show a decided increase in the automobile death toll. On the basis of a forecast decrease in registration of motor vehicles, the report indicates an even greater increase in comparison with cars registered. Total fatalities for the entire United States for the year have been estimated at approximately 34.000, an increase over last year of 2.5 per cent. Indiana’s toll for nine months was 874. Montana. Missouri and California show the greatest increases in the states included in the United Press survey. HEADS RUM COMMITTEE Senator Blaine (Rep., Wis.) Nar.-ed for Congress Repeal Group. WASHINGTON.

of its dealers throughout the country by the time of the January automobile shows, the trade expects that sufficient samples of the eight will be built to exhibit at strategic locations by early January. "It is doubtful that large scale activity on the new cars can be initiated for some weeks to come, but, in view of the normally slack demand encountered during mid-win-ter, this factor is not likely to prove an important drawback to Ford. "As for the remaining manufacturers. operations have gradually gained, as various asesmbling units have reopened or production has been speeded to prepare dealer and show samples. The extreme caution regarding production schedules in late weeks is not likely soon to be materially dissipated, in view of the present, character of Ford's plans. "While General Motors already has introduced the 1932 Chevrolet, it is a known fact that a line of Chevrolet eight-cylinder cars could be quickly placed on the market, should Ford competition suggest the feasibility of such action."

BUSINESS NEAUS EXPECT UPTURN AFTER HOLIUAYS Improvement Is Looked For in Automobile, Steel Industries. BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK. Dec. 26 —The cur- ( rent holiday season will be followed j by the usual upturn early in January. according to busines opinion. The year-end always is marked bv dwindling activitv in ail line* not dependent upon special holiday gift buying and invariably is followed by improvement as steel mills, ; automobile plants and other businesses resume normal operations. Whether January's improvement, will mark, a definite change in the downward trend of general business will depend largely upon intangible influences. But business leaders are hopeful of the new year. The past week’s business developments gave no clue as to just what may be expected. Steel mill operations declined to a further new low , for the depression at approximately ! 18 per cent of capacity, and other major industries like railroads and j automobiles suffered similarly. New Deal on War Debt* The fact that Christmas rame at the end of the week caused greater curtailment than usual because many busings houses took advantage of the situation to declare a | three-day holiday. Alt the major stock and commodity exchanges closed down for three days. Most important in the wpok’s business developments again was the foreign situation. The administration finally obtained approval of its one-year war debt moratorium. The President’s signature was hardly dry on the moratorium bill, however, when the committee investigating Germany’s capacity to pay further reparations, called for an immediate and complete new deal on war debts and reparations Ito avert ‘‘new disasters.” This report was expected to keep the German situation in the limelight. Another significant foreign ’ development was the declaration of a moratorium on its foreign debts payable in other than its own eurtency by Hungary. Such a development, expected for some time, Jp<i to fears other southeastern European nations would follow suit Comparatively little American money is involved. Stocks, Ronds Erratic In ihe stock and bond markets prices moved erratically. Knowledge that, important American interests were investing in gilt-edge bonds, however, served to restore confidence and many commodities like grains and cotton held firm. The railroad wage controversy continued uppermost in the minds of many business men. A decision would go far toward restoring confidence. The 3 to 4 per rent freight rate increase recently allowed by the interstate commerce commisison is scheduled to go into effect midnight, Dec. 31, and funds will be obtained from this source to be loaned to weaker roads through the recently formed railroad credit corporation. Comparatively little industrial buying has developed in advance of ihe freight rate increases. This apathy is explained by the desire of most corporations to keep inventories to a minimum. Few companies are willing to order until January,
