Through 15 blistering rounds of unceasing action this pair of | game-cocks fought in Madison | 8quare Garden last night, and by only the narrowest of margins did Canzoneri stave off Chocolate’s formidable bid for his lightweight crown. For this important duel a crowd of 19,000, largest at the Garden in two | years, piled into the Eighth avenue | arena, saw one of the most savage bat- | tles between little men in the modern history of the ring and remained for | 10 minutes at the finish to boo the official decision. | One Judge for Chocolate. | So close was the milling that one | judge, Charles F. Mathison, gave the | verdict to Chocolate, while the other Jjudge, Joe Agnello, and the referee, | Willle Lewis, cast their ballots for Can- zonerl. The Associated Press score card listed eight rounds for Canzoneri, five for Chocolate, with the first and eighth even. It was Canzoneri's third defense of the title he won by & one4ound knock- out of Al Singer little more than a year ago, and it was by far the hardest. Previously Tony twice had turned back Jackie (Kid) Berg in title defenses, once winni from the Briton on a knock- out and then on a decision. But in Chocolate he found a foe | ready and able to swap punches all the way over the long route. In the final analysis it was the fact that Canzoneri forced the fighting all the way that earned him the decision. In the face of a withering fire of lefts and rights Tony walked into the Cuban Nefro round after round, disdaining defense for a chance to sock away at Chocolate’s slender sides. Canzoneri Picks Up. At the end of 10 rounds it seemed pouring into the Negro's body took its toll of the challenger’s stamina and strength. Through the last five rounds Can- soneri definitely held the upper hand. ‘There were no knockdowns, although the Cuban went down for no count in the tI&urt.h round when a ‘weighed 132 pounds, Choc- Canzoneri | The THI;I EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

CHICAGO November 21.— Primo Carnera, Italy’s largest contribution to the heavyweight boxing ranks, today was at liberty on $4,000 bond, but had to remain in Chicago until Monday at_least, regardless of other plans. Primo was arrested Thursday night after his bout with King Levinsky in the Chicago Stadium. on behalf of George Biemer, Fort Wayne, Ind., pro- moter, who has a judgment for $3.754 against the Itallan for alleged failure to fulfill contract about two years ago. A pair of deputies remained with Carnera in his hotel room Thursday night and yesterday when he appeared or he learned that only a bond would give him liberty with restrictions. His attorney asked to have the judgment quashed, but Judge Willlam J. Lindsay refused and ordered Primo held until the bond was provided. This was done and the case will come up again Monday afternoon. It first was that Carnera had left for New York as he had planned, but a writ of ne exeat forced him to remain in the State to assure 34,4 ith TARHEEL FROSH SCORE.

STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE HERE will be at least two legal 801f balls on the market in 1932. The decision of the United States Golf Association, an- nounced yesterday, to permit the man- ufacture of golf balls weighing up to 1.62 ounces does not outlaw the “bal- Joon” ball, and in fact as well as in theory, John J. Golfer will have him- self & pair of golf balls which he may play in the legal weight and size next year. The U. 8. G.

Many golfers have be- come used to the 155 weight and can- not get the new weight ball up fast enough, and will continue to ask for the old 1.55 weight ball. So the effect of the new ruling will be to set up two official golf balls. At the same time the manufacturers will have little trouble disposing of their stocks of the balloon ball, for there will be many folks who will want the ball, despite its alleged unpopularity.

Associated Pre: EW YORK, November 21.—Young Bill Stribling, air-minded and ring-wise, has thrust himself into the heavyweight picture again, bounding back from his disastrous | meeting with Max Schmeling last Sum- | mer like a novice trying to make his | first landing. | Instead of packing away his ring robes at 26 and turning himself over entirely to aviation after more than 300 ring engagements, the former Macon schoolboy has rebuilt himself with a half dozen knockouts slong the by- ways and now is the center of a pro- moters’ argument for his services. Jimmy Johnston, new fistic head of Madison Square Garden, announced a few days ago that young Bill, who kept his feet for all but the last minute of his 15-round title bid against Schmeling in Cleveland Fourth of July eve, had been all but signed by him for a 10- round engagement with Ernie Schaaf, rugged Boston blond, the Madison Square Garden December 18. Right on the heels of Jimmy's decla- ratfon came the presentment of Nate Lewis, Chicago Stadium matchmaker, that Stribling and Schaaf had signed with him for a duel in the Midwest metropolis December 3. Schaaf ac- cepted terms yesterday and the fight seems assured for Chicago. MEXICAN NINE WINS Takes Six of Nine Games Played With Dallas of Texas League.

MATE’S LAST CHANCE | FOR MONEY LAURELS Southern Maryland Handicap Win at Bowie Would Make Horse Year's Biggest Collector. By the Associated Press. BOWIE, Md., November 21.—Mate, A. C. Bostwick’s claimant for 3-year- old honors, faced his last chance to become the year’s greatest money win- ner today in the $25,000 added Southern Maryland Handicap, feature event of the day here. The son of Prince Pal-Killashandra had the chance to oust C. C. Whitney's Top Flight from the money position in the Riggs at Pimlico last Saturday, but injured his leg and was scratched at the last minute. Mate, rated second to Twenty Grand in the 3-year-old ranks, does not face the opposition in the Southern Mary- land event at a mile and an eighth that he would have had in the Riggs, though he was given the top impost of 127 pounds. A score of 3-year-olds and up were entered for the event. Besides Mate they were Pittsburgher, Blenheim, Sid- ney Grant, White Clover II, Mr. Sponge, Ormesby, Inception, Frigate Bird, Waterway, Tambour, Marine, Repent- ance, Flagstone, Tred Avon, Curate, Happy Scot, Risque, Dr. Freeland and Valenciennes.

BY JOBN B. FOSTER. EW YORK, November 21.— Despite all the talk and rumors that major league owners have had a confer- ence at which they agreed to institute a salary reduction plan for the coming season, this is not true. With the exception of the pay of waning stars and up-and- coming rookies, it is probable that little difference will be noted in the majority of major league players’ salaries in 1932, For two years the salaries of big league ball players have been based on an indirect standard, the large sum paid to Babe Ruth by the owner of the New York Yankees. The players have had less knowledge of this than the owners, The tendency on the part of owners has been upward rather than toward s curtailment of the pay of their men One reason for this has been the disposition to be as as possible with base ball doing well and the second reason was based mildly on the generous pay to Ruth, Feel Ruth Due Big Pay. Ball players, in their clannish way, are never overenthusiastic about heavy salaries to a few players. case of Ruth has been a yare excep- tion, because '.be&l:yen subcon! sensed the idea it as long as Ruth was highly paid there would be a dis- position on the part of owners to give all players as much as they could ford. So they have accepted Ruth' salary more graciously than they other- wise would. . Jake Ruppert, the owner, knew that its terms would appear to be dis- proportionate to the general run base ball salaries. So he called all the American League owners into his coun- sel, placed the situation before was to pay all players as well as possible. New Terms for Babe. ‘The Ruth_contract is to be renewed this year. Neither Ruth nor his em- ployer has given public utterance re- garding the maximum of its amount, although Ruth naturally has said he ts a large sum of , main- still of money, taining the ground that he is great value to the team.
