 New York, Sept. 4.-(UP)-An- other title has slipped from the fin- gers of bull-shouldered little Tony Canzoneri-la of the great fight CTS who ruled during boxing's golden decade.
 And for the fourth time-perhapS the last time-Ca Canzoneri heard the words: "Winner and new champion" spoken for another man.
 The swarthy little Italian who ruled the featherweight division dur- ing the days of Tunney, Loughran, Walker and Mandell wrote what may prove the final chapter to a glori- ous career in Madison Square Gar den last night where he was shorn of the lightweight crown by 22-year old Lou Ambers of Herkimer, N. Y.
 For 15-rounds, before 18,026 per- sons, Tony defied age. He still re- tained most of his former cunning. But his legs were wobbly, his punch eS faded in the home-stretch and he bowed to a fighter almost eight years younger.
 As he nurses his wound in the dressing room, Canzoneri said:
 T needed that fight under my belt" he said from between swollen lips. "I'll get him next time."
 But for Tony there may be no next time". He is now near 30; he has held the featherweight and junior -welterweight titles once and the lightweight crown twice. He is wealthy and happily married. His name is high on pugilism's honor rolls. Punch promenade believed that Tony would hang up his gloves for good-and hoped he would.
 For two-headed Ambers-born Luigi D'Ambrosio-last nights trt- umph marked the end of almost two years of bad luck.
 Now" he said, T can buy that new home for my widowed mother and help out my brothers and sis- ters."
 He comes of a very poor family that has struggled hard during the depression for 8 living.
 Ambers, buzZ-saw type of fighter, captured nine of the IS rounds ac- cording to the United Press score sheet. Canzoneri took four and two were even. Throughout, Lou was the aggressor. Although he took plenty of solid smashes, his light ning-like jabs, hooks and upper cuts had Canzoneris' face puffed and bleeding at the end.
 Canzoneri put up good fight as usual. But last night he was unable to connect often enough with his sledge-hammer punches. He fought flat-footed most of the time -favoring his legs. Anbers, who scaled 134 IA pounds, did not hit the canvas once-such as ke did in their first meeting. He was staggered several times, however.
 The decision was unanimous with two judges and the referee.
 Only in the tenth was Lou in danger. He was knocked groggy by series of hooks to the head and body, and driven to his corner and almost forced to his knees. After that, it seemed Canzoneri might come on. He took the 1lth and 14th rounds but could not muffle the other Italian in the final session.
 In another fight last night, Mike Belloise of New York retained his claims to the world featherweight title by kayoing Dave Crowley of England in the ninth round of a scheduled IS. Petey Sarron of Bir- mingham is recognized as champion by the National Boxing association.
 Crowley lay writhin gon the floor, claiming foul, as he was counted out in 2:52. It was the first major knockout of a man claiming foul in New York since the no-foul rule went into effect several years ago.
