Eanzoneri Stands To Lose Title If He Fails To Meet Ambers; Jacobs In Wrong_

(By Eddie Brietz. Associated Press Sports Writer)

NEW YORK. July 29-(AP)—1t appeared tonight that the world's lightweight crown will be begging for a. wearer within a week.

The New York State athletic com- mission threatened today to de- cine vacant the title now held by Tony Canzoneri, if Tony failed to ill] a scheduled championship date with Lou Ambers Aug. 6. A request by Canzoneri for a third postpone- ment ol the much-kicked about fight was flatly denied by the com- mission.

Sammy Goldman, Canzonerl's manager, declarer later be positive- ly would not let Tony go into the ring next week.

"We'll not take any action until Aug. 6. of course." fihalrman John J. Phelan said. "We've ordered the ilrght for Aug. 6 and if it isn't held we can declare the title vacant and let Ambers night it out with some- body else." Canzoneri told the commision he needs m-_re time to get in shape.

The commission came up with a real bombshell when it revoked the license of Joe Jacobs, manager of Max Schmeling and one of the best known ilght managers in North America.

Chain-min Phelan said it was “for the best interests of boxing." then explained Jactbs has repeatedly re- fused to file with the commission a ::opy of his contract with Schmel- ng.

(A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

NEW YORK, July 2B—'I‘lie Giants won their first doublehead- er of the season at the Polo Grounds today, downing Cincinnati Reds 5-1 and 11-3 to pull up a full game on the idle St. Louis car- dnals in second place.

Freddy Fitzsimmons, lasting the route for the first time this season, bested Benny Frey and Lee Stine in a pitcher's battle in the opener.

With Mel Ott leading the way with his 20th and 21st homers, the Giants belted Gene Schott and George Nelson for 16 hits in the nightcap. Al Smith, meantime, held the Reds to seven hits.

At Brooklyn, Pittsburgh Pirates finally snapped their losing streak of three straight to the Dodgers by coming through with a. 10- inning, 9-8 decision after Brooklyn tied the score with two runs in the eighth.

The winning run was scored on rookie Eddie Wilson's error on Bill Brubaker's fly, allowing Gus Suhr to cross the plate. Suhr scored four of the Pirate runs and led the attack with a double and two singles.

Max Bucher's wildness in the fourth, when he walked six Pirate batters, enabled the Bucs to score three runs without a hit.

Rookie Jimmy Jordan hit the first homer of his major league career during the Dodgers’ three- run rally in the fifth.

A four-run rally in the ninth, climaxed by Dolph Camilli's sec- ond homer of the game and his 19th of the season, gave the Phil- lics a 5-3 victory over Chicago Cubs at Philadelphia.

Pinkey Whitney started the rally with a single to centre. Manager Jimmy Wilson batted for Pusscau and also singled. sullk sacrificed.

Perry Defeats Crawford In Straight Sets After Quist Had Evened Up Series

hes.

I903-06.

Australia fought ii gallant up- hill battle with two men carrying the entire burden of play in her effort to wrest the cup from the defenders. Crawford lost to Aus- tin and Quist was defeated by Perry in the opening singles matches.

But the same antipodean pair came backto take the doubles from the British pair, Charles Tuckey and Pat Hughes yesterday and the victory of Quist. the Aus- sie champion, over the stylist Austin in today's first match tied the count at two-all.

It was Perry who stood between the Australians and their first chance at the title since 1924.

Perry played at the top of his form to defeat Crawford in the deciding match. The Australian did his utmost to cope with the Britons sweeping drives and his mastery of the entire court. It was a losing fight.

A crowd of 17,000 waited until nearly two hours after scheduled starting time for rain to permit play.

At the close of the competition, Princess Helena Victoria present- ed the cup to the British team. Dwight W. Davis, donor of the famous trophy. also took part in the presentation ceremony.

Quist said after his victory over Austin that Clifford Sproule, the non-playing captain of the Aus- tralians, had pulled him through with encouragement from the side- lines after frequent footfaulis in the second set had temporarily thrown him off his game.

Austin's tribute to his conqueror was: "He was too good for me to- day."

Perry broke through Crawford's

service in the opening game of each of three sets they played. He frequently stormed the net to blast. Crawford's returns home. The Australian carried many games to deuce. -Austin made a promising start in his match with Quist. taking the first three games, But he dropped six out of the next seven. allowing Quist to win 6-4. He took advantage of Qulst's foolfaulis for a. victory in the second set but then his customary length and ac- curacy both disappeared and the Australian champion took two sets in a. row for victory.

Perry was in his most brilliant ‘mm and mined an easy victory over Crawford. The Er-iton varied his pace, direction and length Jud- ioiously and frequently had the Australian beaten with fine back- hand volleys.

In the first set Perry took ci-aw. ford's service in the first game. He held his own after four deuce: and led 2-0.

NEW YORK, July 28—Yankees' "murd.erer’s row." paced bi’ I-0" Gehrig's 81st homer, went on its biggest rampage in nearly three weeks today at Detroit and wal- loped the Tigers 16-6.

Gehrig's homer, two double% and. a single; four singles by Tony Laz- zeri; three each for Joe DiMaggio. Myril Hoag and Red Rolfe, and George 6elklrk's four-bagger were outstanding in-the 20 assorted hits the Yanks collected off Tommy Bridges, Vic ,B0rrell and Clarence Phillips to hold their nine-game American League lead.

A freak homer by Goose Goslin, on what should have been an or- dinary oirtfield fly, featured the Tigers‘ attack as they clubbed Monte Pearson off the mound only to fall afoul of Jimmy Murphy.

DiMaggio and Hoag, running af- ter Goslin's fly to right centre in the sixth, collided. Both were knocked out, the ball-rol.l.i.ng‘I.way. C-oslin circled the bases. DiMaggio

went to the showers with 5 minor neck hurt.

At Cleveland, Earl Averill rap- ,)'.‘d out his 18th and 19th home runs of the season and Odell l-{ale got. no. 10 as the Indians took 8. 6-3 victory from Washington Sexi- aiors.
