Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NBW YORK, Nov. s.— They've Always said that Billy Patrolla was worth his wrtght In gold as a battler. Well, Friday in a fight for the lightweight championship of the ■world against Tony Cansoneri, Billy Petrolle went off the gold standard. H tried to pull himself down from 34ft pounds to 135, and It was no dies. Cansoneri won off by himself. He slowed the man they call the Fargo Rxpreaa down to a local In a hard, bruising, bitter fight that left the rustomers gasping at the durability of the beaten fighter from the midwest. There wasn't * dissenting squawk at the end of the fifteenth round when the Brassthroated lark of Tenth avenue, Joe Humlihrles, walked over to Canzonert's corner, (Ttad hi* soggy right mitten and bellowed: ‘ The wlnnah. and still champion!” Tt, an earnest, honest fight between two little men who were In there swinging from gong to gong. There wasn't a knockdown In the fight. Once or twice Petrolla teemed to be going but he always managed to fight back to even keel. Canzoneri tried energetically for a knockout but there was no dynamite In his fists The end of the fight left no doubt as to the class of the New Orleans Italian ft was conceded in advance that he had no opposition In the lightweight, division a*"e Petrolle Canzonert'* convincing victory lesves him in complete command of the division He was three pounds under the class weight, coming in at 132 Tie would have been a star back In the old days when the bovs has) to do I*3 ringside. m m h WHETHER Petrolle at hi* best could have whipped Canzonert Friday night 1* sheer speculation. But I think even Canzoneri’s warmest enthusiasts will admit that the business of making weight didn’t help Petrolle. While It is true he seemed to make it easily, the ordeal most certainly must have taken something out of him. I noticed that as early as the second round Canzonert was bathed in perspiration, an unfailing symptom of physical perfection r.nd physical reserve. Though the pressure, physical and nervous, was heavier on Petrolle, he never once broke out in a coating of dew. He had used up all his surplus fire getting ready for the test. The fight, goe* in my book as one of the most stirring I ever saw, in spite of the fact, that there was not a knockdown, and that after the tenth it was a foregone conelusion. The sixth round was typical The men stood toe to toe and ripped punch after punch—cruel. Jolting, whizzing blows to head and bodv in a steady stream. Hed you tried you couldn’t have counted them. Whatever chance Petrolle had to win bv a punch faded after hts enormous exertion In the sixth. You were, able to tell that when he caught Canzonert with a roartng right hander in the jaw early In the seventh, an exact counterpart of the punch which had sent Jimmy McLarnin head over heels In the same ring two years ago. If Petrolle was to win, here was the nunch that would win for him. But It didn’t even knock Canzoneri out. of stride Prom that moment, on the boys who had bet on the champion had nothing to worry about. a u PETROLLE worried Canzoneri' most with his body fire. “Give it to him downstairs” shouted Petrolle’* handlers. “He can’t take it.” Petrolle gave him plenty downstairs and it soon became evident that the champion didn’t like it in the body—but as Charley Harvey remarked: “Who does?” Petrolle had Canzoneri bending over double at times to get away from his raking blasts to the belt line but he lacked the speed and the power to carry on a sustained offensive. Always Canzoneri managed to squirm loose, settle himself, and come rushing back with a counter drive. A capacity crowd saw the fight. Canzoneri’s next opponent will be McLarnin here in December.

NEW YORK. Nov. s.—Paul Moss, great Purdue end, made'All-America Ratings this week for the second time this fall and Heller, half back, of Pittsburgh, also repeated. Roy Horstmann, Purdue full back, also is mentioned for his fine play against N. Y. U. last Saturday. Competition is becoming keener and Weekly Ratings at this time and from now on are important and doubtless will indicate the warriors selected will have an excellent chance to survive the final test. The ten stars selected for outstanding performances in games of Oct. 29 by the manager of the AllAmerica Board follow: JAMES Princeton Here's the one hoy Michigan could not stop. With the help of great blocking he showed one of the finest bucking performances of the vear Michigan's possession of the ball was limited to nine plajfs in the first half, and James of Princeton, received most of the credit.

BRILLIANT CANZONERI TURNS BACK VET PETROLLE
Lightweight Champion Cops Title Struggle Tony Flashes Unbeatable Form to Flag Fargo Express in Sensational 15-Round Tussle Before 20,000 Fans: Challenger Whipped to Frazzle. BY HF.NRY M'LEMORE I'nlted Press Staff Carre.nnndent NEW YORK. Nov. s.—lt Just wasn’t in the for Billy Petrolle to win a championship. After eleven long years,of campaigning, during which time he never once got a shot at a title, fate handed him a crack at the lightweight crown. And what did Billy draw for an opponent? A Tony Canzoneri squarely at his peak—a Canzoneri so magnificently conditioned, so beautifully attuned that even the old-timers at the ringside admitted he was worthy to stand alongside the lightweight giants of the past. Tha nearly 20.000 customers who jammed Madison Square Garden for the bout Friday night, went there to see a fight that had been ballyhooed as the best lightweight scrap of the decade. For ten rounds it was about that. Then Petrolle, the old Fargo Express, reached the end of the line. Up until that point he had roared along at top speed, throttle open, whistle down. The derailment came in the eleventh when, without warning, his speed, his punch, his stamina—in fact everything but his will to win—left him. From there on out, the old Fargo Express was just a milk train trying to finish out the run.

Tony Canzoneri
Still the champion—and from the form he exhibited in punishing Billy Petrolle Friday night, it will be a long time before anybody topples that lightweight crown off the worthy brow of Tony Canzonei’i. He's a fighting champion, and a popular one, too.
Cruising in Sports BY EDDIE ASH
THERE'S a young shortstop out on the Pacific coast attending the winter baseball school at Los Angeles who Is described as another Ownie Bush. His name is Eddie Weiser and according to old timers who have watched the lad, he is another big leaguer in the making. Joe Cronin was developed at that school and in six years he became a major league manager at Washington. That’s what you call quick development and promotion. Moreover, In the short space of four years out of the sandlot “academy,” Cronin had become the leading shortstop in baseball at bat and in the field. When a school of that type turns out an alumnus of Joe's speed, it can do some chesty pointing with pride. n n Washington has stirred up a little stove league smoke with the announcement it might sound out the White Sox on a trade of a pltrher for a catcher, say Fred Marberry for Charlie Berry. Outfielder Dave Harris and Johnny Kerr, utility Infielder, have been placed on the block by the Senators. They're probably headed for the minors. Harris Is best known for his achievement as a pinch hitter this year when he stepped to the plate against Detroit and ruined a no-hit game for Tom Bridges. ana THERE'S been a peculiar thing about football this fall. It rains nearly every Monday and the weather fits right in with the moaning that occurs over the upsets on Saturdays. Howevei. if football didn't have its upsets, the frenzy would die out and attendance would drop to .000. an The herd part of being chosen on the mvthfc.l all-America team before the senior year in college Is the grief that oeenrs the next fall when the all-Amertea star's team Is not so good, a sitnation which leads to constant reference te se and so. as "last year's all-America half back.” The ease of Png Rentner of Northwestern is an example. It's Uke automobile talk: "Oh, yes. It's a geod ear, but It's last year's model.” In other words Rentner Is a "used" all-America. A TOUCHDOWN * counts six points, but a Purdue touchdown is worth seven. The reason is Paul Pardonner, Boilermaker quarter back. He has kicked the extra point eight times in eight tries this year and his record for 1931- 32 is nineteen out of twenty. That's what you call having the oval under control. Jack Manders, Minnesota star, has popped five straight between the uprights over the bar. which is one more reason Michigan is worried. The Wolverines and Gophers tangle on Nov. 19. a a a Floating power hut no wheels describes the Northwestern Wildcats' bean pole end, Vtn Thoma. who lowers It feet 4 Inches.

St. Mary’s Can’t Lose —Peter (Sanitation Department) Coyle on Hand
By l nited Prrs NEW YORK. Nov. s.—St. Mary s Galloping Gaels are a good bet to defeat Fordham today, principally because Peter Coyle—of the New Haven Sanitation Department Coyles—will be on the bench alongside Coach Slip Madigan. By the same token, all the other Notre Dame-coached elevens throughout the country are in danger of losing because Peter Coyle will not be on hand to grace their benches and shout words of wisdom and encouragement. Coyle is the two-eyed Connolly of Notre Dame football. He has held this position for some ten years, or ever since that day when he. bv some mysterious means, attached himself to the late Knute Rockne.
There were times in those last five rounds when it didn’t seem Billy could make it. For the champion was just as strong as Billy was weak. Tony rated himself perfectly. Rocks Petrolle in Eleventh Canzoneri’s handlers must have sensed Petrolle was about ready to be flagged. The round was not half over when two stinging fights all but drove Petrolle to his haunches. The champion’s stinging left jabs, delievered as he moved in and out like a cat, began to blind Billy in the twelfth. Petrolle, his legs rubbery, his eyes nearly closed, and with blood trickling from his nose and mouth, wps little more than a target in the thirteenth and fourteenth. Time and again Tony rocked the challenger with whistling lefts and rights to the head, but Billy, as game a battler as ever pulled on the gloves, took it without a change of expression. Whipped to a frazzle, Petrolle summoned his last bit of strength at the start of the fifteenth, and for g few seconds, actually forced Canzoneri to beat a retreat. This flurry was a dying gasp, for before a minute was gone the champion was once again hammering away t his mn with every shot in his kit. Weight Loss Hurt After the fight Petrolle and his manager, Jack Hurley, made no sort of alibi. Those who expected to hear them say the task of making the 135-pound weight robbed Petrolle of his strength, were disappointed. But it’s true that chopping off those ten excess pounds did draw Billy too fine. But even if he had been allowed to come in at his best fighting weight, it’s doubtful if he could have whipped the Canzoneri of last night—a Canzoneri who had everything it takes and more. In his dressing room the champion said he could have set a hotter pace in the early round had he not elected to wait until Petrolle softened up a bit before cutting loose. “And,” Tony said, “if you knew how that Billy can hit, you’d know just hqw wise I was to wait until some of the juice went out of his punches.” a swell target for pause* and the Purple team rould have used him in many trying situation this year. The Chicago Maroons may be without the services of their Star guard. Walter Maneikis. Saturday against Purdue. While on his w sy to classes the big fellow was the target for an auto speeder and barely leaped out of the path of the machine, and the quick move turned an ankle. Maybe Maneikis had his mind on Roy Horstmann. Purdue's devastating line plunger, when he was crossing the highway. a a m TESS HARPER, Notre Dame athietic director, announces that Hunk Anderson will continue as Irish grid coach this year and next. It may be that way, but we wouldn't bet on it. Notre Dame has lost only three tilts in one season and a half under Anderson, a splendid record, but no college coach is going to last who humiliates his players publicly as Anderson humiliated Captain Host, Lukats and Alexander. Knute Rockne often shook up his team, but he soft-pedaled his moves to the newspapers and the lads demoted wer not harmed in heart and spirit. * a a A WILBERT ROBINSON day at Ebbets field, Brooklyn, next baseball season has been suggested to the Dodger officials. Old Robby spent seventeen years as manager in Flatbush and there was much ill feeling created when he was released and the job given to Max Carey. The Dodger bosses are thinking seriously of a Robinson testimonial and if it comes off it is certain to be a gala event. Robinson’s popularity is nation-wide in diamond circles.

Legend has it that Knute, looking up and down the bench one day just before an important game, spied Coyle. ••Who is that and throw it out of here.” thundered Knute. Whereupon, Coyle moved three paces closer to Rockne.-told him to “watch those ends” and stayed put. Notre Dame won. and after that Coyle was Rockne’s shadow. And “Rock” would not consider starting a game until his good luck charm was safely on the bench. Peter’s sidelines pass dangling from his coat. Rockne even put up with Peter's coaching, allowing the New Haven vagabond to advise him what plays to run, when to take out players,

Top Elevens Wage Action Against Strong Opponents on All Fronts
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Nov. s—Two unbeaten football teams were (expected to be blotted out of the eastern championship picture today as leading teams launched the season’s biggest drive for sectional honors on alll fronts. Pittsburgh tackled Pennsylvania at Philadelphia, and only Holy Cross invaded Brown’s stronghold at Providence, R. I. With these four unbeaten elevens primed for heroics, there seemed little chance of tie scores. Jock Sutherland's Pitt Panthers were favorites to eliminate the Pennsylvania Quakers because of the Panthers’ formidable showing in trouncing Notre Dame. But Pennsylvania, after several secret sessions, approached the encounter with confidence. Brown, conqueror of Harvard, held the edge over Holy Cross, the “Mystery team” o fthe east. Possessing the newest of football’s offensives the triple wing-back system of attack—the Iron Men of Providence have acquired an enviable repuetation this season, turning back opponents far more formidable than those which met the Holy Cross Crusaders.
