CARPENTER WANTS

To Get Ready If Could

Paris, Dec. s.-(By mail.) = George
Carpenter, French heavyweight cham
piou, will reqaire nearly four months to
got into condition for the ring-and it
is very doubtful whether the French
army authorities will consent his leav-
ing active service for 50 long period.
Carpentier himself, here recuperat-
ing ritter bad1spill from his army aero
plane at the front, made this declara-
tiOn tc the United Press today. The
French rugilis;ic star is in Paris for a
brief time and his condition is such
that he must make daily visits to the
hospital for treatment.
- s'I. .an in very bad condition. Car
pentier said. 81 consider that nearly
four months will be necessary to get
ma into shape again. The doctors say
first of ali ] must have complete rest
with nething hut the mildest sort of
exereise---like cross country walking.
Then would have to begin a process of
long. gradual training. -
"If by fighting with gloves can
help my country more than can by
plotting an aeroplane, m naturally
willing to do STIFF am permitted.
eff sufficient leave is obtainable,

lieve ] may be able to. strike few

Carpenter was wearing his uniform
eating a light dinner at boulevard
cafe when the United Press staff cor
respondent met him. He looked bigger
and broader than he did when he used
to fight in tbs ring but, paradoxicRlly
his face seemed thinner. His cheeks
were rather hollow.
nThere 3 little use in talking of q
mateh,p he said at the outset, ''even
If that match is for the benefit OF
charity-unless I can get leave.

reason it was never received by the
