CANZONERI CHOICE OVER PETROLLE IN RING TITLE TILT
Tony Holds Wide Edge Challenger Says He’ll Stop Lightweight King Friday. By United Pre * NEW YORK, Nov. 3.—Tony Canzonerl, world’s lightweight champion is a 9-to-5 favorite to retain his title against Billy Petrolle Friday night, according to Jack Doyle, Broadway's veteran betting commissioner. Doyle said he expected Canzoneri to be a 2-to-l favorite when they climbed through the ropes for their fifteen-round bout at Madison Square Garden. "The bettors believe Tony is too young, too fast and too smart for Billy, '* he explained. Waiting Ten Years But these odds are not bothering Petrolle, “The Fargo Express." Billy sat down in an easy chair at his hotel and predicted that he'd knock out the champion. "I've been waiting ten years to win the lightweight championship,’’ said the beetle-browed slugger. “And I’m going to win it this time. I’ve got to take it now or never, because I’ve only got a couple of more fighting years. I’m 27 now.” Petrolle explained there w’ere three kinds of fighters: (1) Good boxers, (2) good sluggers, and (3) smart fighters. The first two were "easy meat” for him. A good boxer went fine until he got one on the chin; a slugger was open to punishment and weakened as the fight wore on. But the smart fighter usually “was a tough nut to crack.” Billy Well-Fixed "Canzoncrl's a smart fighter,” he continued. "He's something like Dempsey. A hard hitter, a fine boxer and a fellow that uses his head every second of the fight. But I figure I’ll beat him because I can hit harder, take more puunishment and am just as smart. Don’t think I'm bragging—you asked me how I figured my chances.” Win or lose, this title business actually will not make much difference to Petrolle, He’s one of the most comfortably fixed fighters in the game—financially.

Illinois university, probably the most, widely publicized player in gridiron history, said he was convinced that when commercial football overcame the hazard of weather it would attain proportions along the line of present-day big league baseball. Grange, completing his seventh season of pro ball and rounding out his sixteenth year of grid participation, spoke enthusiastically of the game's future in a chat at his hotel. A member of the Chicago Bears, he’s here for their National League game with the New York Giants on Sunday. "Weather has been the greatest obstacle to the professional game's progress since its beginning ten years ago.” said the henna-haired 186-pounder. "In spite of this, the sport has made such rapid strides in the last three years that promoters will take steps shortly to eliminate this uncertainty. "Already some of them are making plans to build mammoth indoor plants where the game can be played at night during five months of the year.” BOXER TAKES “DIVE” By Timet Special SPRINGFIELD, 0., Nov. 3.—The bout between Larry Johnson, Chicago Negro heavyweight, and Jack Townsend of Cleveland here Wednesday was stopped in the first round and called “no contest” when Townsend was accused of taking a “dive” to the canvas.
