NEW YORK. Sept. 3.-For the
l39th time in IL years that grand
little warrior of the ring-Tony
Canzoneri-will crawl through
the ropes tonight to commit as
sault and battery on an opponent.
This time Tony will defend his
lightweight title in Madison Square
Garden against the bouncing at
tack Of Lou Ambers. the human
jumping jack from Herkimer, N. Y.
The boys along Broadway have
been singing Tony's swan song and
sports writer's have been penning
his ring obituary for years. but
here he iS-still throwing punches
and still champion.
A year ago they said Tony was
definitely through. A great little
fighter. Of course. but one who had
seen his best days. So they made
this same Ambers he meets again
tonight a 3-to-1 favorite to take
him. And Tony promptly punched
him silly.
All of which is true but doesn't

Belts Gives
Touch to
Ball Game
Bv KIRK MILLER
Times Sports Editor

4In1eS SpoTLS EuILOI
You've seen him at the en-
trance to the ball park in the
capacity of major domo,
He answers questions, directs
the customers to the various
windows and gates and makes
himself polite and considerate.
This is his second year in
such a capacity, catering to
the inquiries of those who don't
quite know their way around,
and it seems he can stand off
to one side of t h throngs,
large and small, and spot a
patron who seems in a daze
as to where to purchase tickets
and what gate to enter.
Billy Belts is no stranger to your
older baseball addicts around
Washington, but to some of the
newer crop it may be necessary to
explain that he is "of baseball"
Fact is, he is out of baseball.
At Your Service
He's the portly. heavily jowled
gentleman with the kindly and
noble countenance who looks the
part of a chevalier. gracious,
suave and bending. Easy to meet,
is what I'd call him, and attentive
to your least need.
A year ago last spring Secretary
Eddie Eynon realized the desirable
ity Of having a sort OF outside
man to smooth the access to the
park, particularly for those unfa-
niliar with the regime of buying
tickets, finding their proper en-
trance gate for the various seat
ing sections and to stem the con-
slant flow of minor inquiries
which were finding their way into
the business office proper and
stemming activity there.
Eynon felt he needed a man
who understood baseball-minded
folks.
It wasn't a job that was to pay
a whole lot, yet it required a GER
tain type familiar with people and
faces and sympathetic to trivial re-
quirements of the baseball-gotng
public.
Just the Very Man
So Billy Belts was injected into
the setting. He had been asso-
c1ated with big league and anna,
teur and independent baseball
around Washington for 40 years
and more.
Why, away back yonder when
the National League was a 16-cluo
affair with Baltimore and Provi-
dence and a lot of smaller cities
holding a franchise, Billy Belts
used to umpire, and he did it to
the queens taste-or rather to
the taste of Uncle Nick Young,
who was president of the league
and lived right here in Washing
ton.
Those were the two-fisted days
of baseball and an umpire had to
be a man in every sense of the
word. The players of those pioneer
times were not the cultured crew
common to baseball now.
They were a tobacco-chewing,
torny-handed tribe. They would
fight with or without the drop
of a hat. and Belts says that some
days it was like taking your life

FOREST HILLS. N. Y, Sept. 3.
The luck of the draw" will play
a leading role in the mems and

today.
The luck of the draw" always

ers with bothersome styles. then
you generally can expect an upset,
This has held true in past cham
pionships and there is no reason
why it shouldn't hold true here.
Beat DOeg Easily
In the 1881 tournament. George
Lott ran up against Johnny Doeg,
the defending champion. and
eliminated him easily. Lott. as
singles player. had always been in
ferior to Doeg.
In the other half of the draw in
this particular championship. I
had to play Fred Perry. ! eliml-
mated Perry in five sets.
If the pairings had been re-
versed. both Lott and would have
probably met defeat. Doeg's style
Of play has always caused me no
end of trouble, and Lott would
have been easy for Perry.
Just last year, Don Bulge met
Bitsy Grant and was eliminated.
Bulge is undoubtedly a better
singles player than Grant, but
Grants soft" game has a ten
dency to throw Bulge off his own
hard-hitting game.
In this years upper half, we
find Bitsy Grant, second1seeded,
Sydney Wood. No. 3, Robert Riggs,
No. S, Hal Surface, No. 8, and
Perry, top-seeded among the for.
eign invaders, In addition to
these. we find such dangerous
players as John Van Ryn. Gilbert
Hall. Gene Mako, David Jones.
Arthur Hendrix and jacques Brug-
non.
Parker a Threat
The only player in the lower
half who can possibly give Bulge,
| top7seeded American. a match, is
Frankie Parker. Of the seeded
players in the lower half, Gregory
Mangin and John McDiarmid are
the only ones worth mentioning.
1t appears. therefore, that the
winner in the upper half is like
~ to be much more exhausted by
the time the final is reached than
the triumphant one in the lower
half. 1t Is obvious, therefore, that
Perry, favored to reach the finals
in the upper half. should have a
much tougher time than Bulge.
