HEAVY STICKWORK FEATURED NEARLY
 ALL GAMES FRIDAY
BY LEO H. PETERSEN

 United Press Staff Correspondent New York, April 24 - (UP) - The New York Yankees, despite the loss of Babe Ruth, are carrying on. With their star hitter still in a Boston hospital recovering from in- juries received Wednesday, the Yankees showed the same slugging ability that has marked their play this season when they defeated the Boston Red Sox, to 4, yesterday. The victory enabled the New York CTS to maintain their lead in the American League race.
 Home runs by Gehrig and Ruff ing featured the Yankees nine-hit attack against Moore, Lisenbee and Brillheart. Ruffing held the Red Sox to 6 hits.
 Right Up There
 Cleveland's Indians stayed within half 8 game of first place by whip ping the Chicago White Sox, 8 to 1. Burnett's triple with the bases filled, followed by Averills home run, gave the Indians the lead in the second inning. Hudlin allowed the White Sox but 2 hits.
 The Philadelphia Athletics made it two straight over Washington, 10
 
 to 2 hits for the first innings, but weakened in the 7th and was re- placed by Grove. Simmons, with 2 triples and home run, led the Athletics batting attack against Jones and Marberry.
 Behind the 5-hit pitching of Earl Whitehill, the Detroit Tigers de- feated the St. Louis Browns. to 2. Home runs by Kress and Schulte accounted for the St Louis markers. Alexander was Detroits big gun with triple, double and single.
 Three of 'Em
 Rogers Hornsby. manager and second baseman of the Chicago Cubs. hit three home runs in suc- cessive times at bat as the Cubs walloped the Pittsburgh Pirates. 10 to 6. Hornsby's homers accounted for runs. His feat ties the mod ern major league record for the number of home runs in consecu- tive times at bat and put him into the homesrun leadership with total of 5.
 The Brooklyn Robins Finally overcame the Boston Braves. to l, for their second victory of the sea- in six starts against Boston. Lefty Clark held the Braves to s hits. Two home runs by Wright and one by Bissonnette featured the Robins attack against Sherdel and Cunning ham. Manager Robinson benched ODoul and Frederick, outfielders, in favor of Bressler and Rosenfeld, respectively.
 Even Stephen
 The New York Giants and Phila- deplhia Phillies battled tosas7 to 2 tie in 12 innings before the game was called because of darkness. The Phi1lies got away to an early lead scoring runs in the first innings, but tossed away their margin and at the end of innings the count was tied at 6 all. Both teams scored a run in the 11th.
 The other National League game scheduled, between the st-place St Louis Cardinals and the Cincin- nati Reds, was rained out. Because of their idleness while Brooklyn was winning, the Reds went into the league cellar.

RIGHT TO BERC'S
 JAW HUNG FIRST
 KNOCKOUT ON HIM
Canzoneri, the Lightweight King, Won Third Title in Third Round of Chicago Battle
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Stan COrrespondent)
 Chicago, April 25-Tony Canzoneri of New York today ruled the 130- 140 pound sector of the fistic world.
 He successfully defended his light weight championship and won the junior welterweight title by knock after two minutes, 23 seconds of fighting in the third round of a scheduled 10-round bout here last night. Canzoneri weighed 132, Berg 134 1-4.
 A crowd of 11,78O paid $54,663.73 to see Canzoneri win his third box ing championship. equalling Bob Fitsimmons' record of almost 35 years ago. Before winning the light weight title from Al Singer last November, Canzoneri had held and lost the featherweight crown.
 Right to Jaw
 The end came last night after a furious exchange. Canzoneri had his back against the. ropes, with Berg boring in, fiinging both fists. Canzo- neri smashed out with his right, and it caught Berg, coming in, on the jaw and almost suspended the little Englishman in mid-air.
 Berg fell flat on, his stomach with a dull thud, bnrying his face in the resin. As the count reached nine, he was almost up but he couldn't make it and turnbled back to the floor again as the referee tolled 10.
 From the outset, CanZoneri car ried the fight. He won the first two rounds and was out in front in the third. Berg, usually tireless fight CT, couldn't seem to hit his stride.
 Tn the first 30 seconds of fighting Canzoneri rocked Berg with hard right to the head, and before the end of the opening round had the Englishman's face red from punch- ing him. Berg's nose began tosbleed in the second round.
 Wants Another Chance
 Berg recovered quickly from his knockout and announced he would launch a campaign for return match.
 q wasn't myself" said Berg, 1T beat Canzoneri year ago and II think I can do it again if given the chance"
 It was Bergs first defeat in 27 matches and the first time he had ever been counted out.
 The knockout over Berg was the 26th k. registered by Canzoneri in 99 matches. ps-

In the San Diego handicap, Knights Call finished the mile and one-sixteenth second to Alexander Pantages. The time for this race was 1:43 1-5, almost a full second better than the former Ca1iente record. The Audley colt, running in sixth poe sition at the half, came with be- lated rush to beat out such horses as Ervast, Caruso and Vanity for place.
 Knights Call failed to show much distance runners. His sire, Bright Knight, won many rich stakes at the longer distances, including three at mile and a half. His dam. Florence Nightingale, was a better-than-aver- age daughter of the incompatible Man O War. ,,,
 Knights Call has shown his abil- ity to stay with the best of the bet ter class of horses. He has speed, plenty of courage, and can run in the mud. He has yet, however. to take up. his weight and run the Der hy distance,

GROUP OF 57 MORE
 EVENTS TO FINISH
 PENN FIELD GAMES
By HENRY McLEMoIE


 Limited Press Staff Correspondentl
 Frank1in Field, Philadelphia, April 25-(UP)-This ample field on whose turf thousands of track and field athletes have dashed, jumped and tossed their way to fame and Charley horses. was in for another terrific pounding this af- ternoon when the 37th annual Penn relay carnival comes to close with the running of more than half a hundred events.
 No less than 57 events, mostly re- lay races of one sort or another, will be held after midday. The lone morning event Is the hammer throw, which means that the hammer throwers will perform their prodig- ious feats of strength in compara- tive privacy. Which is just as we'll for hammer men have been known to aim at the wide open spaces and then fool everybody by dropping their weight down s-some innocent sbystanders' neck. This IS highly arnoying to both parties.
 Variety Galore.
 Torty-five of the 57 afternoon events are relay races, sixteen of them being college events and 20 interscholastic frolics. The remain ing eleven events include the discus, javelin, shot put, broad jump, pole vault, 1O0-yard dash, high jump and a couple of others of lesser im- portance.
 Naming the afternoons standout or headline event in advance is a very thankless task indeed, for the athletes have way of coming through with the unexpected that Is highly disconcerting to the fore caster. The ace race might be the mile relay for the American cham pionship; it might just as well be the two-mile, or the sprints, or the 48O-yard shuttle hurdle relay.

 The Audley Farms have entered Knights Call, their crack son of Bright Knight, in the Kentucky Derby, May Is. Knights Call was g highly regarded two-year-old, but not quite up to the clas sof Equi- poise and Twenty Grand. The Aud ley Farms, however, expect Knights Call to ably supplant Gallant Knight, their brilliant colt of last year.
 Knights Call failed to show much ability in his first races. However, the son of Bright Knight ran three good races in the fall. In the first of these he was second to Don Leon, generally considered the champion of the middlewesterIi horses. The track was a sea of mud and Knights Call was a length behind the west ern speed demon.
 In Latonia feature of a mile and 70 yards, Knights Call finished six lengths ahead of Chief John, Royal Ruffin and Tarzan. The track was fast and Knights Call literally ran away filth the field.
