Tony Stecher was both fair and sensible during our discussion of this phase of the May 6 match. Tony admitted that Richards Is Just getting nicely started in heavyweight circles and. while he has won all of his contests to date, he is anxious to bring Ray along gradually, being careful not to overmatch him.

"I expect to get a Jim Lon- rios or a Strangler Lewis to come to l.incoln, but I believe 1 can get a capable opponent, one that is worthy of Richards' game, and most certainly I shall give it my be.st try. Tony has left that detail in my hands and the most I can say today is that I am already on the Job. Saw Richards In Action. "Adam Krieger had asked me to be matched against Richards, but I told him today that I preferred to pit a heavier opponent than the Lincoln grappler against Ray in the first appearance here.

CHICAGO, April Tony Canzonerl, lightweight champion of Knute Rockne LIFE STORY OF the Man By ARRE N. FIFTEEN. (Copyright, 1931, Chicago Herald and Examiner. Distributed by Universal Service.) Some of adventures with football officials arc the world, will match his title story in themselves.

He had his critical moments with against the officials, as any other coach, but in only one instance did his England, tonight in the feelings in matter persist for much longer than the next Chicago stadium. game on the schedule. This official drew wrath, for what to him to be bias. As usual, he had a story which went along Canzonerl, one-time holder of the world featherweight championship, will be defending his latest title for the first time since he won it from A1 Singer last November, and if the i betting odds are indicative of the outcome, the lightweight title will take a trip to England the next time Berg goes home. The slambang isher today was held a seven to five favorite to defeat the New York security of A position.

Referee Tipped His Hand. he said, playing Team on the gridiron, and the referee turning out to be one of the real threats to the Italian by a decision at the end of the 10-round engagement. A.spires to Title. title was dragged into the argument when Berg, who has done his fighting at 138-40 pounds, made the lightweight limit of 135 pounds to get a crack at the more expensive crown, Canzonerl, however, believed that making the weight had done the Briton no good and was confident he would win by a knockout within five rounds. Berg, who scored a decisive victory over Canzonerl in New York before the latter won his title, said that making weight had done him no harm and that he expected to repeat without extraordinary difficulty.

Customem Not Excited. Both are aggressive fighters and the meeting tonight promises to provide more action than any lightweight title fight sinve the division championship began bobbing around like a cork on a wave. However, in spit? of the prospect of a great fight and an excellent supporting card, the attitude of the customers, especially the one and tw'o-dollar ones, has been apathetic. Finally, there wa.s a fumble, a quick piling up of the players on Doth sides, to recover the ball. Tlic referee blew his whistle, dived into the pile and wormed his way to the very bottom of it, finally clutching the football.

Dame game, a dinner was given, which was attended by representatives of all the schools that had been on the Notre Dame schedule that year. Friends and battle, between Sammy Mandell and Canzonerl, then the challenger, drew in excess of $136,000, production may not attract more than 15,000 spectators and $65.000.

When he awoke the next morning, five dogs had Jumped in bed with The desire that something should be done about the officials was more than satisfied.

Told One On liimsclf. Rockne was not averse to turning the point of a story against himself. He was discussing, one day. the reaction of some of his followers to hla newspaper writing. "I was down In Florida, grinding out something every day." he said, "and I guess aome of It was pretty bad I realixe how bad until 1 got a telegram from a fellow up In Minneapolis.

He asked me how I was and I told him I waa good shape Rockne said. I asked him hew he wes snd he told me he never felt better, Then he went his way and I went mine. The next day he had an Interview with me that was a little more than two columns wrong er, 1 meant to rav Much for So Little. I wish I could give my football teams so little, and get so much In Rockne read a great deal.

Hia tnstes were chiefly though he went in a good deal for mystery slorlea. Edgar Wallace being his favorite author in that line. One of the last- iioo'xa he read was a story of Pasteur. He was grestly interested in that and it was the gr book he had ever read. "You ought to read he said, don't suppose understand it, but you ought to read Rockne was not one to store up writings about himself or tram, but I doubt If manv of theie aort of ever escaped him.

His desk was forever cluttered up with clippings sent him from ell of the country hy friends or well-wisheis, or, es the caf -0 might be. dts.aenters. Generally, the clippings had penciled notes by the senders. I am sure that Rockne read all and I as sure that he forgot them, save when they might be used for some effect he desired to create. While 1 have heard him express op'n- lons of rertsin that were hardiv compllmentarv, he never once made an issue of anything.

Getting a rise out of Rockne was much a taking a fall out of one of his football teams. Flooded by No movie star ever accumulated the funds, to criticism and advice on football. He answered a good portion of the letters and some of their contents would have created sensations 1 have tn mind a letter which came his way within the past two yesrs. telling him that a certain already a star the Western conference, had made up his mind to come to Notre Dame to complete his studies snd play football.

In season and in spring practice. He appeared at summ.er coaching schools. He wrote for the and magazines He made frequent radio appearances and was constantly attending luncheons and dinners as guest speaker. The demand for him as a speaker brought him to more than an ordinary lot of and colleges. He was engaged In the stock and bond business and an exhorter for the sales of the Studebaker corporation.

Add to that hla motion picture work, his duties at athletic director at Notre Dame and thousand and ore other activities, and it is difficult understand how he had time for hla family. And yet Rockne was es- senflally a family man. Many times, the very presa of all hta engagements led him Into aome ludicrous aitiiationa of which one which involved Bill Ingram might be cited ai an example. Concerning BUI Ingram. Ingram had been appointed coach at California, largely on Rockne a sayso.

and one day Ingram appeared in Chicago, having been wired by Rockne to meet him at tha Sherman hotel on a certain Monday. But Rock alwavs at the auditorium," I told Ingram. Bill phoned there, but Rockne wasn't registered He waited until mid-afternoon, and from Detroit came a news story outlining Rockne a latest Ideas on of his favorite sub- lects Over-emphaais, delivered at a luncheon there, that day. I phoned Ingram and told him where hia man was located. Hut he told me be here and It was urgent," protested Ingram can reach 1 ere tonight, so I'll wait following morning I railed the Auditorium and talked a while with Rockne It never occurred to me that he hadn't met Ingram the night before and 1 said nothing about it Neither did he, for the California projeet wasn I aiip- pnsed to be khnwn, and Rockne could keep a newspaperman out on a limb as long as the next one.

I le.svtne for Philadelphia this af- f(M-Uion Rockne as soon as 1 make a sprech at the sporting luncheon that afternoon. Ingram railed again and wanted to know if 1 had heard anything from Rockne.
