BRINK BOOED BUT GETS NOD
 OVER Ex-CHAMP
Tony Far From Able Foe for Henry Armstrong;
 Legs, Punch" Gone
BY LESLIE AVERY United Press Staff Correspondent

tUntcU fTeSS Std1I NUEECSpUnucHtJ
 New York, March 29-(UP)-n was a split decision, and Eddie Brink's disputed victory over Tony Canzoneri seems significant today only as a warning to Tony that 19 years of fighting have taken too much out of his body for success full comeback.
 Tony still has the heart and the head, but his legs are gone, his sta- nina is going, and his 1ethal punch is just a memory.
 The former feather and light weight champion has talked about winning his way to a welterweight title bout with Henry Armstrong. Unless he is counting 8 one-way trip up Queer St., he will forget all about it.
 Even if some of the 3,569 specta- tors in the Hippodrome were right in booing last nights decision, Can- zoneri should realize that when the likes of the Scranton, Pa, Irishman, can hold him to close decision, any championship hopes can be con- signed to the crematory. In his prime Tony would have belted Brink out in a round or two. He staggered Eddie numerous times last night, but he didn't have the power or the punch to floor his light-hitting opponent.
 It was the 18th bout in Tony's comeback attempt, and his second loss. He whipped Brink over eight rounds three weeks ago, but 10 rounds were too many for him, and the direct cause of his losing the decision. Brink put on a whirl- wind finish in the final two rounds, making Tony break ground with his furious attack in the 10th.
 Tony's only other comeback loss was to Eddie Zivic, which he later reversed. Since he returned to the ring, he has licked Brink, Howard Scott twice, Jimmy Murray, Wally Hally, Bobby Pacho, and kayoed Al Dunbar, Joe Cevras, and Everett Simington. He is booked to meet Frankie Wallace or Jimmy Vaughn here April II, Jimmy Tygh at Phil adelphia April IT, and Al Davis at Madison Square Garden May 3.
 Three times Tony had Brink dressed up for knockout wallop last night, but he couldn't summon the strength. In the first round he staggered Eddie with a hard left hook. In the sixth, straight right sent the Pennsylvania boy back on his heels, and in the eighth his two- listed attack drove Brink all over the ring. The rest of the time, he seemed content to try to show up his opponent with his own brilliant defensive tactics. He bobbed, weav- ed and ducked to make Brink look silly several times. But Eddie forc- ed the fight most of the way, and kept putting the leather to Tony throughout with damaging effect.
 Tony was stunned at the verdict, saying q thought I won all the way" Referee Artie McGovern and Judge George Kelly voted for Brink while Judge Hal Barnes cast his vote for Canzoneri. Tony weighsd Al 3-4 to Brink's 139 3-4.

Title Game at North End " Thursday-Avigs

Jamele's Smoke Shop and Joe's Tire Shop survived the semi-finals tonight to meet each other Thurs day 8:30 p. m. at the North End "Y", in the finals. The Tire Shop team trounced the Aviglianese by a AZ to 25 score. The Jamele'S Smoke Shop quintet stayed off a last quar- ter rally to win AS to 42 over the Varsity All-Stars.

The Aviglianese team proved an easy foe as they had a miserable night in netting points. Santora and Reno, with and 2 points, were high scorers for the losers. The score:
 Stan Grey was injected into the game in the last minutes of play and encountered eight points in succession for the Jamele's Smoke Shop team, which resulted in vic- tory. The All-Stars being led by 16 points in the third period rallied strongly in the last canto to make a ball game out of the affair. The game was nip and tuck until Grey came in and then the West Side lads pulled away to a comfortable lead. Stollar and w. Kalosky each netted eleven points for the victorS.

salemonas, Rinaldi Star

The Cadets-St. Joe's contest for third honors was filled with action. Captain Wally Salemonas of the Liths put on a great exhibition of offensive play netting IS points which was bit overshadowed by the unerring eye of Rocco Rinaldi of the Cadets who cut the cords for 21 points to tie for high single game scoring honors of the tourney with Ferony of New Britain and Julie Zaino of Bristol Eds Col legians.
 The Liths were without the serv- ices of their tourney importations, Joe Swasey and Frankie Saldukas, while the Soldiers were also minus their ringers, Joe Boley and Joe Joyce. The Liths started off strong by rolling up a 10-2 lead at the end fo the first quarter which the Cadets cut down to 23-18 at the half.
