WEIGHT PROBLEM WORRIES PETROLLE IN CANZONERI GO
Title Tilt: ‘Natural’ Brilliant Rivals to Tangle Over 15-Round Route Friday. By Times Special NEW YORK, Nov. I.—Can Billy Petrolle, the veteran “Fargo Express,” shed ten big pounds and still keep his speed and power? That was the big question along cauliflower row here today as Billy Petrolle and Tony Canzoneri, lightweight champion, went through training routine in preparation for Friday's fifteen-round title tiff at Madison Square Garden. When Petrolle started work a few weeks ago, he weighed an even 145 pounds. Although the general opinion is that Petrolle can’t shed ten pounds or more without sacrificing a deal of his stuff, his veteran manager, Jack Hurley, insists 135 pounds is Billy’s best fighting weight. Billy Can Give ’Em If so, then Petrolle should be the favorite at ring time Friday. Despite his many years of campaigning, he has just about all it takes to make a great fighter. He can box, take it and give it—and the latter is his specialty. His left hook, usually aimed at the stomach, probably is the deadliest punch in boxing today. Canzoneri probably will enter the ring an 8 to 5 choice, however, to retain the crown he won from A1 Singer in the Garden on Nov. 14, 1930. The little Italian has defended his laurels successfully a half dozen times since.
Tony Smart Boxer While a smart puncher, Tony is not likely to elect to mix.it with Petrolle. His best bet will be to stand off and take his chances on outpointing his man. On paper, Friday’s battle looks to be a natural, and stands to produce the best 135-pound go since Benny Leonard fought Lew Tendler a decade ago. One of the largest crowds in some time is expected to file into the Garden for the tussle. THIL STOPS JOHNSON By Times Special PARIS, Nov. I.—Another victory was added to the record today of Marcel Thil, French claimant of the world’s middleweight championship. Thil scored a technical knockout triumph over Len Johnson, British champion, Monday night, when the Negro was unable to leave his corner for the eighth round.
Northwestern Chief Defends Use of Phone During Game

Michigan ‘Fears’ Indiana; Hoosiers Perfect Defense
By 1 imes Special ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 1— Michigan started practice for Saturday’s tussle with Indiana with some misgivings.

Harry Kipke was encouraged Monday, however, by the return of Stan Fay, star half back, who has recovered from injuries suffered in the Ohio State game two weeks
Broad Ripple. Coach Harry Painter has his machine running smoothly and the south siders will be ready for the invasion of the Irish at Manual field Friday. Just about the time Coach Joe Dienhart gets his charges to the point he thinks they are at the peak of form, they strip a gear or two. When the Irish took New Albany before the home-coming crowd, they did everything right. Saturday at Kirklin where they lost 13-7, the offense didn't click. The Irish-Manual scrap is always a good ball game and a close verdict is expected again this year. Bob Nipper’s Shortridge team did well against the powerful Continental machine last week and the Blue mentor expects a victory over Broad Ripple. However, the suburbanites have been a tough nut for any opposition. Technical will be Involved In a North Central conference scrap when Tubby Trobaugh and his Loganberries come to the Tech campus Friday. The Techites have been unsteady this fall and after a fast start they were tied by Bloomington and lost to Muncie and Manual. John Mueller brought them back, however, and after trailing 2-0 at half time last week, at Richmond, his boys ground out a 13-2. victory. The east side season will be labeled a success if wins over Washington and Shortridge can be chalked up. BLUE NET SQUAD CUT Kenneth Peterman, Shortridge high school basketball coach, announced the first cut in his 1932 squad today. Twenty-four candidates survived.

Dublinsky and Wilson Top Tonight's Offering; 36 Rounds Billed. Harry Dublinsky, recent conqueror of Tracy Cox, arrived in Indianapolis Monday noon from Chicago, in apparently the pink of condition for his ten-round match tonight with Hershie Wilson at the Armory. The Chicago lightweight spent two hours during the afternoon limbering up at the Victory gym and showed lots of speed. Hershie Wilson has trained faithfully for tonight’s scrap, and is especially anxious to turn in a win, as he believes a victory over Dublinsky will mean recognition as a foe for Tracy Cox. The boxers on tonight’s card were to weigh in this afternoon at the Victory gym, and tonight’s show is to start promptly at 8:30. Willard Brown, state commission lightweight champion, will take on Dick Clark of Cincinnati in the tenround semi-windup; Johnny Hammer and Kid Carson, local junior lightweights, are to tangle in the top six, and Jimmie Harris of Cincinnati and Pete Harris of this city, also junior lightweights, will clash in the other six rounder. Jimmy Shannon and Paul Wagner, feathers of local renown, will start off the fistic doings in a four-round cur-tain-raiser. JIMMY SMITH WINNER "By Times Special PHILADELPHIA, Nov.

Jack Portney, Baltimore lightweight, scored a third-round technical knockout triumph over Billy Shaw of Detroit.
Cruising in Sportland—with Eddie Ash
THE mine run of men betting on football games can "sing” longer and louder over a defeat than in any other line of sport. However, the boys backing Northwestern against Minnesota last Saturday probably will break all records for marathon "singing.” Minnesota had the ball at about the 18-yard line on fourth down, with six yards to go. Everybody knew a pass would be next. The Wildcats set their defense, and both Rentner and Kawal covered Tenner of the Gophers. The ball was tossed to Tenner and Kawal leaped and batted it, but Tenner reached out and grabbed the leather before it hit

BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. I. Ind Ana will have the benefit of two weeks’ training when it resumes Big Ten competition against Michigan here Saturday. Coach E. C. Hayes ordered his varsity team through stiff scrimmage today against freshmen using Michigan plays, perfecting a defense for Harry Newman’s passing and the running of Petoskey and Regeczi. The Hoosiers trained for the Michigan game last week at the same time they were preparing for their game with Mississippi State last Saturday. Stan Saluski's return to former form has encouraged Indiana’s hopes for a better running attack.
Drake Next Butler Foe Butler's Bulldogs returned to hard work today in preparation for Saturday’s batlte here with Drake, the only Missouri valley conference tussle on the 1932 card for Fritz Mackey's pastimers. Encouraged by Saturday’s fine performance against Franklin, the Fairview pastimers hope to turn in a surprise win. Many of the injured performers who were kept opt of action last Saturday will be ready for the game, and there were no injuries in the struggle with the Grizzlies. A chalk talk took up Monday’s drill session, but new plays were to be rehearsed today. 2 MAT EVENTS SIGNED Leo Alexander, South Bend veteran, and James (Black Panther) Mitchell, colored middleweight, will meet in a catch-weights fracas as the semi-windup of Friday night’s grappling program at the Armory, matchmaker Jay Gardner announced today. Indian Gordon Arquette, popular Pacific coast youngster, and Charlie Carr, Michigan middleweight veteran, are to meet in the two falls out of three main event. Two other bouts are yet to be arranged.

Ah! It’s Open Season on College Grid Coaches
BY HENRY M’LEMORE I'nited Pres* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Nov. I.—The season on football coaches is wide open. They say Hunk Anderson Is washed up at Notre Dame; Jackson Cannell has played out his string at Dartmouth; Navy Bill Ingram is sunk at California; Mai Stevens is done for at Yale; Frank Cavanaugh is on the way out at Fordham and Frank Carideo is soon to be shown
the front door at Missouri. You will notice that these gentlemen are coaches of teams that have taken it on the chin this year. Thus it w’ould seem the boys and girls still are demanding a winner. The reason for such a demand is not hard to figure out. It takes a winning football team to pack the customers in the stadia at $2, $3 and $4 a head. It is unfortunate for those working for the cause of de-emphasis in football that the depression arrived just when their efforts were showing a gain. For the depression, instead of furthering de-emphasis, increased the need for winning

teams. Not so long ago a winning team was mostly a matter of pride, and when a winning team did not materialize it was pride, and nothing much else, that suffered. Today, however, the lack of a triumphant eleven hits the pocketbook first, and the pride second.
And a blow to the exchequer is twice as painful as a punch to the pride. tt tt St EVER since Anderson stepped into the impossible task of filling Rockne’s seven-league boot|, the boys have been naming his successor. Their guesses have ranged from Harry Stuhldreher to Ella Boole. The Irish have had as many proposed bosses as the Cincinnati Reds. Right now, “Clipper” Smith of Santa Clara, Slip Madigan of St. Mary’s, Jimmy Phelan of Washington and Jimmy Crowley of Michigan State are being mentioned as Andevson’s successor. Madigan and Crowley, along with Hiker Joy, present assistant coach at Fordham. have been mentioned as likely successors to Cavanaugh.
the ground, and scored the lone and winning touchdown. And previous to that a penalty for interference gave the ball to Minnesota to put the Gophers in a scoring position. n tt tt Early in the same tame a Northwestern bark intercepted a Gopher pass with a clear field. It was a set-up catch for a run for touchdown, but the Wildcat lad juggled the oval and then dropped it. Incidents of that kind turn the tide in many games where teams are about evenly matched and are known as breaks. In baseball, through the long season, breaks usually even up. but in football one team plays the other only once and when any eleven bumps into an unlucky day it’s just too bad.
tt tt tt THE world’s greatest optimist has been found. He is A1 Mamaux, manager of the Newark Bears, pennant winners -of the International League. A1 wants a hike in pay; says he is entitled to a boost and expects his bosses to come through pronto. The Bears' pilot goes on the theory that any dub can make money during prosperity, but that it takes a smart manager to store up profits during a depression in any line of business. Jake Ruppert, owner of the New York Yankees, also owns the Bears, and Jake gave out so much publicity when he boosted Joe McCarthy’s pay for winning the world series that Mamaux decided the winning of the junior series also was an achievement commanding more money. tt tt tt It vas only about a year airo that Ruppert was reported on the point of riving Mamaux the bounce at Newark, but Alert A1 was smart and the move was headed off when many Newark fans rot behind their manager and urged the Yankee directors to permit him to stay. He produced in a big way. but at the same time he was given a lot of help from the Yankees to strengthen weak spots in the Bears’ ljne-np. tt tt a The st. louis cardinals are trying to obtain outfielder Forest Jensen from the Pirates and then send hint to Rochester, but there’s hardly a chance of Jensen being waived out of the National League.

Jock Sutherland, Pittsburgh’s ray of sunshine, has been touted to go to Yale, but the Blue authorities denied Monday night that they had made Sutherland any sort of offer. Some sideline experts think Albie Booth eventually will take charge at New Haven. Jess Hawley, ex-Dartmouth skipper, and Myles Lane, now head man at Boston university, have been mentioned in connection with Cannell’s job. Nobody has as yet broached a candidate to follow Carideo at Missouri. The more one reads about that Missouri team the more one is inclined to believe that not until they engage Chandu the Magician will the Show-Me boys break into the winning column.

The schools are hot rivals of long standing and their annual battle in the Smoky City stirs grid frenzy to the wildest height. They meet on Nov. 19. Pittsburgh students declared a holiday Monday to celebrate the triumph over Notre Dame and one of their marches took them to the Carnegie Tech campus, where the Tech students were handed a load of Bronx cheers and razzberries. Notre Dame beat Carnegie, 42 to 0, and Pittsburgh upset Notre Dame, 12 to 0. The Panthers beat Tech last year, 14 to 6. Figuring an upset by Carnegie this year would be ridiculous, but then there’s the Franklin-Wabash, Wabash-Butler, Franklin-Butler scores to prove anything is possible.

Three Irish Stars Out Anderson Drops Capt. Host, Lukats and Alexander to Reserves. By United Press SOUTH BEND, Ind., Nov. I. Three Notre Dame regulars, including the captain, have been demoted to the second team by Hunk Anderson. Irish mentor, in a drastic shakeup as a result of Pitt’s 12 to 0 victory over the Ramblers Saturday. Captain Paul Host was replaced at right end by Hugh Devore. Nick Lukats was ousted and Mike Koken took his place at left half back, and Kitty Gorman moved into the center job, displacing Ben Alexander. Other Changes Promised Anderson promised other radical changes unless the players showed more life. Too much publicity, hand shaking, back slapping and big “bear” stories partially were to blame for the loss to Pitt, Anderson said, and so Notre Dame will be a sheltered team when it goes to Lawrence Saturday to play Kansas. The Irish will leave here Friday night, arriving in Kansas City Saturday morning and going to Lawrence at 11 am., just before game time. They’ll see no newspapers, reporters, photographers or well-wishers. This decision was made by Anderson Monday. “Added to the fact that Pitt had a splendid team and that Sebastian made a great run against us to score,” he said, “I think the newspapers in Pittsburgh had as much to do with our defeat as anything else.
Too Many “Friends” “People coming into Pittsburgh Friday wondered if the Panthers would be able to put eleven ablebodied men in uniform. I’ve never seen such “bear” stories. “Then, too, we were praised to the skies as a wonder team, photographers bothered the boys the day before the game and Saturday morning, friends and well-wishers patted thehi on the back and it was impossible to get our boys in the right frame of mind to play the vicious kind of ball they should have played.”
