ROUT|S OF FRANCE
WINS FIGHT CROWN
Annexes Feather Title From
Canzoneri by Making
Great Rally.
BY ALAN J. GOULD.
Associated Press Sports Editor.

n YEW YORK, September 20 Up).
A blue-eyed. chunky lit
NJ Frenchman whose fighting STYLE
4 is as bristly as his hair is the
the new featherweight boxing
champion Of the world.
This game little invader. Andre
Routis. won the title last night at Madi-
son Square Garden from Tony Can
zoneri, clever Italian, with one OF the
most remarkable comebacks the ring
has witnessed in some time.
Knocked down and badly battered in
the first round, apparently hopeleSsly
beaten at the end of the seventh. Routis
put on a stirring finish to beat Can
zoneri in a sensational 15-round slug
ging match.
Makes Great Comeback.
Remarkable endurance, rare fighting
courage and persistence, plus an effec-
tive body attack. enabled Routis to over
come a bad start, wear down the cham
pion and gain the verdict.
1t was a close fight, decided on 2
to-1 vote of the judges and referee, but
the crowd of 1000 as we'll as ringside
experts appeared satisfied that the new
champion had fairly won his new
honOrS.
The victory. a decided upset to those
who had installed Canzoneri a 2-to-l
favorite at the ringSide, sends the title
back to France after a flve-year lapse
and crowns the career of the 25-year-
old lad who has fought his way to the
top through sheer grit and determine
ton.
Routis. orphaned IS years ago when
his father was killed in the war and
his mother died from the shock OF this
tragedy. has been in the professional

Business and Emerson Battle:
Tech Wins; Eastern in Tie Game

IN USINESS HIGH and Emerson In
- stitute foot ball teams were to
clash this afternoon at 2:30
IL o'clock on the Sixteenth Street
Reservoir field in the first game
OF the scholastic season. Each squad
was handicapped by having several de-
pendableS injured. Both planned to
give As many players AS possible
chance to show their wares in regular
competition.
Tech drubbed Baltimore City College,
"a to 0. and Eastern and Calvert Hall
yesterday in Baltimore. The contests
were the first of the season involving
Capital schoolboy combinations.
fine forward passing attack was
largely responsible for Techs impressive
triumph, three of it's four tOuchdowns
coming on aerial heaves. The Maroon
and Gray had little difficulty at times
gaining through City's line. but on other
occasions found the latter's forward wall
adamant.
Teen scored early in the opening quar-
ter and added a touchdown in every
period thereafter
Drissell. clever Mckinley quarterback,
was the ace of its attack. scoring two of
the four touchdowns.
1t was DrisSell who counted the first
tally. receiving a forward pass from
Shrider. right halfback and racing 80
yards,
Techs second tally came in the Sec
ond quarter, when after City had failed
to get away punt deep in its own ter
ritory. the Washingtonians launched
smashing line drive, which eliminated
in Goss, fullback, plunging over.
Another pass from Schrider to Dris-
sell for IS yards accounted for the
third touchdown and heave through
the air from Fountain to Benner
brought the final tally in the fourth
quarter.

CAYWOOD NOW SURE

Remember how Frank Craven. the
golfer-actor in The Nineteenth Hole. -
swelled up his chest and held his head
high with pride when he won a little
tin cup in a handicap contest?
That is just how c. Chester Cay
wood, president of the Indian Spring
Golf Club. feels today as he matches
shots with H. p. Brown in the final
Of the fourth fight in the Indian
Spring club title tourney, which con-
cludeS today.
Although S. H. Buttz. champion Of
South Dakota. Is meeting Roger Pea
cock for the club title, this match is
not nearly SO interesting to club mem
bers as the match between Caywood
and Brown. for the president Of the
club has never won prize in golf
tourney. He has now reached the final
round and no matter what happens in
the final round he is bound to win a
prize.
Walter B. Vogel and Grant N. Berry,

the second flight, while E. H. Campbell
and DR.. l.. A. Reeves are meeting IN

Hitting on Upswing
Gives More Yardage
BY SOL METZGER,

In order to hit, not sweep, a golf
ball off tee, one must take a wide
stance. just notice Hagen's COM
pared to Jones' some day and you'll
see difference. Hagen is a hitter
VINO puts all his power into a blow.
His stance is wide. Jones uses
narrow one. His shot is more of a
well timed sweep with a punch in
at the contact point.
Phil Finlay'S stance is also wide.
He braces himself for the effort he
is going to make. In yesterdays
release the fact was brought out
that he hit ball-that is mostly all
carry to get distance. Now to hit
one high Finlay not only tees 1t
high, but plays it well off his left
foot.
That means his clubs face will
meet the ball as it is coming up
after passing the lowest arc of the
doWnswing. because of his wide
stance Naturally, ball SO hit will
bore into space for great distances
if the power is behind 1t.
