GIBSON, FOR MFR TUNNEY MANAGER,
 LAUDS CANZONERI
Special to The Democrat)

New York, May L-'T consider Tony Canzoneri or.eo f the great est little fighting men of all time" {" Gibson, veteran handler and man. ager of two world champions. Ben- ny Leonard and Gene Tunney. He adds:
 "He belongs with the McGov- erns, DiXons, Attells, Johnny Dun- dees of another era. I have seen Tony in most of his important battles and all will agree with me that he always gives the customers run for their money. Thrice champion and a good one as boss of the feather, junior welter and lightweight divisions, I look for him to retrieve his 135 pound lau- rels after he squares off against Lew Ambers, at Madisan Square Garden, May TO-"
 Gibson also places the curly haired little Italian on a par with Leonard. True, Benny will go down in history as a remarkable champion but I have no hesitancy stating Tony is just as good as Benny ever was. He is almost as clever and can punch as hard as Leonard. As a ring general he is on par with Benny.
 Hike a great many others I thought Tony deserved the deci- sion in the return bout with Bar ney Ross. You'll remember that near the end of the farcas Tony came within the proverbial eye lash of stopping the Chicagoan. His easiest fight I thought was against Al Singer, whom The

Croft, Abbott And Slocum Win Grammar Games

One well-played contest resulted from three games played in the Grammar School Baseball league yesterday afternoon when Croft, with a four run start in the first inning, finished up a to 3 winner over Duggan at Hamilton park. Up at Fulton park, Mary Abbott turned in a neat 11-3 win over Walsh while Webster could not dent the Slocum scoring dish, los ing a 90 game to their north end rivals.
 Good Mound Work
 Good pitching by Phil of Croft held Duggan to five hits, while Byrnes hit hard for the winner. though De Bolape's three hits for Duggan in as many times at bat was the real batting feature.
 Five hits were all Webster got from Sforza's delivery which wound up in a shutout while the winners manufactured runs with the eight hits, seven runs. coming in the fifth and final inning.
 s. Manderino with three hits and J. Reno with a home run did the heavy clouting against Walsh while M. Reno famed ten Walsh would be wallopers. Five runs in the first inning just about settled the game with six more coming in the third fourth and fifth sessions.

wheel, caused a six-car jam a few laps later.
 After that De Paolo put away his equipment and settled down to the more prosaic life of business with a good job in the motor car manufacturing field.
 With all that bad luck and after what happened to him in Q Barce- Iona road race last year, De Paolo reasons that all of the hard luck must be out of his system.
 Smell of Smoke Becomes Too Strong for Old Firehorse
 It was not until last year that the smell of smoke became too strong for the old firehorse in De Paolo. and with personal invita- ton from Italo Balbo, the notei airman, he set off for the other side of the world to compete in 6 road race at Tripoli. He was hon. ored by Mussolini, a fitting tribrte for young Italian who chased and caught. fame, and he campaigned in Germany and Spain.
 It was in Barcelona that the modest role of a hero ended us Paolo's glorious adventure. At g hairpin turn in a road course, Ec swerved his car into curbing to avoid killing three children, and for this act of bravery he hovered between life and death in Paris hospital for four months.
 It was here that the gallant De PaoloS added new chapter to his colorful career by conceiving the idea of writing his adventures. Ills autobiography, the first book On automobile racing ever written .u America and filled with the pun gent vernacular of the tracks, is appropriately titled, wall Scak- err"
 Cummings and the others who have come along since De PaoIo last whizzed around the Hoosicr course will have to keep a heavy foot pressed way down if the nose of any other car is to be put down in front of the baby shoes tied % the right front axle of Wall Smacker De Paolo's mount.

Indications were that several Of the owners and trainers of the q eligible were going to hold both the $400 and their peace. The ab- solute withdrawals undoubtedly will come from the proprietors Of those horses who were worth $25 risk (the charge for nomina- tions) months ago, but whose workouts since arrival at the, Downs has shown they couldn't win without the aid of mechanical devices.
 The refusals were not expected to be numerous. Because this years derby is such an open race that most of the owners were will ing to gamble $400 against some $40,000. Also, the weather was so unsettled that hthe track may be in such condition as to give even the rankest outsider a chance.
 Sure to Start
 Sixteen thoroughbreds were al- most certain to be named. They are Today, Omaha, Plat Eye, Nell lie Flag, Commonwealth, Boxthorn, Roman Soldier, Psychic Bid, Whis- kolo, Sun Fairplay, St Bernard, Tutticurio, Blackbirder, Morp1uck, and Chanceview. The fate of Mc-. Carthy, Shoeless Joe, Direct Hit, Prince Splendor, Bluebeard and Weston is extremely doubtful.
 With the bugle's call to arms but hours away, c. V. Whitney's To- day still ruled the favorite at odds of to l and his packers refused track scare them off. Those who liked the handsome colt were un- animous in their opinion thaht he has so much class it wouldn't make any difference whether the foot ing on Saturday is lemon meringue, four-lane concrete or ankle-deep slime. In short, they think Today Is a champion and has the cham pion's ability to make his race anywhere, any time.
 Grouped behind him in the bet ting were Nellie Flag at to 1, Plat Eye, Omaha, Boxthorn and Com monwealth at to l. And Roman Soldier at 10-1. Nellie Flag owes her rise in public esteem to the rain which has been pelting Louis vile for nearly A hours, and which has converted the Churchill Downs track into a quagmire. The same is true of Commonwealth and Roman Soldier.
 It still was generally agreed to- day, both by the experts and B. 900 men on the street, that the race, from start to finish, would be a battle between these Seven short-price horses. Nobody gave the others a chance.
 Anything Can Happen
 But laughing at the outsideri doesn't make sense when it is re. membered that back in 1918 Don. erail came galloping to pay $1S4.9s trimmings first choices in the wager ing have been beaten 32 times. Hope of g dry track was fasl fading. The rain hasn't stopped for "A hours, and the weather fore cast calls for continued showers to. 1 day. The riding strip was GOV cred by half an inch of water early to-day. Those familiar with the track, however, said it is the fast est drying course in the country and that "A hours of clear weath- CT would render it fit.
 Unless civic and track officials are stretching things a bit, the biggest crowd in derby history will witness the e1st running.

Stock car manufacturers again are interesting themselves in auto mobile racing, which is not the least reason why another era of prosperity is imminent for that risky business.
 Fifteen new cars will participate in preliminary trials for the 500- mile race at Indianapolis on May 30. That is more new creations than have been built for the mad whirls oround the 1-2 mile brick track since they went back to the 91 cubic inch motor in 1926.
 The Memorial day race at In- dianapolis annually plays to Amer ica's largest sports crowd. With an advance sale more than double that of last year at this time, Pres ident Eddie Rickenbacker expects . new attendance record. The pres ent mark is 155,000 established in 1880. Wild Bill Cummings was Jagged the winner before 1SS,000 persons in 1884.
 A feature of this years running of the famous fixture is to be the return to the races of Pete de Paolo, wha came out of Q high handed apprenticeship to capture the event in 1925 with an average of 101.13 miles an hour, a mark that stood for seven years.
 Leon Duray also threatens to try 1t again, but friends doubt that the present proprietor of an Inlianapo- lis night club will. Duray recorded the fastest lap ever turned at In- dianapolis in qualifying in 192S- 124.018 miles an hour. Leon, who laid aside his goggles three years ago, has entered two cars, one of which is to be piloted by Tony Gulotta.
 Reasons That All Hard Luck
 Should Be Out of His System
 De Pacfo earned a quarter mil. lion dollars on the strength of his victory of decade ago, but time has dissipated his once imposing banlkroll and brushed 6 few flecKs of silver on the temples of the diminutive driver. A veteran at S6, Pete Is as sound as a rock and more mature in his judgment than he was on the afternoon that ne skyrocketed to fame and fortune.

fifteen scheduled heats. The vic- tory crowned him lightweight king.
 T saw him come from behind in many fights to grab the decision. He has the heart of a lion. Almost from the beginning of his great career Tony proved soldier under fire. He's been in there taking and giving it over a stretch of ten years and today he is just as good as he ever was. Ambers is a good fight CT, too. He is young and likes to fight but I believe Tony's superior fighting qualities will overwhelm his speed and punching. Fifteen rounds is long way to go but it makes no difference with Tony. He is a strong boy. His stamina is one of the things I marvel at. If Ambers. whom I saw lick Harry Dublinsky and Sammy Fuller, turns Tony back then I'll be the first to congratulate him."

COLUMBIAN SQUIRE SPORT NEWS,
(By the Observers)

Baseball is steadily progressing this week among the boys.
 Practice was held under the able direction of Jimmy Conlon last Sunday.
 After quite battle the outfield positions seem to be falling to Fran Dubuque, Johnny Conlon, and a newcomer Art Dulac. This boy is quite long distance hit ter and seems plenty good. Q
 Fran Fitzmaurice, one of the most loyal supporters of the Squires was appointed manager.
 Ed Conlon, the Brooklyn boy, who possesses fine arm, is mak- ing a great try for shortstop.
 Ed should furnish plenty of trouble for Johnny Slavin, the East Ends contribution to the team.
 Bill Joyce seems to be on tap when it comes to pitching, al- though Johnny Conlon, Johnny Phelan and Charley Cornell, all predict they'll furnish plenty of trouble.
 Ray Cronan seems to be having trouble with ''thbse awful corns" on second base.
 Johnny Slavin and owen Kyle are showing fine form at short stop, and third base respectively.
 Doe" Carey and Fran Fitzger- aid are still having quite a battle for catching honors.
 This week as was announced be- fore we begin our series of short biographies of the athletic achievements of the aspiring base ball players.
 Johnny Slavin, the first of the line started his sport career at Sts Peter and Paul school. He excelled both in baseball and basketball as regular. In his last year he was unanimously elected captain. Besides being great ball player Johnny is one of the smartest and popular boys in Crosby. We con- clude this short biography by nam ing Johns batting average which was .35O.
