Foe to Sleep in
Exhibition Bout

Georges Carpenter. the French box.
ing champion, is not all in, as some
reports would have it, according to ad-
vices received here Georges must
have his wallop, too, judging from the
manner in which he put an opponent
out recently.
Since he was given sick leave from
the aviation service Carpenter has
been acting as athletic and boxing in
sstrdctor at the Joinvile school in
France. Not long ago big fete was
arranged at Loir el-Cher and over TO-
GOO persons assembled to see the
sports, especially an exhibition boxing
match between the French champion
and Ray Williams. sergeant from the
States.
The first round went through all
right with both men handing out some
pretty hard wallops but in the second
Carpenter pulled himself together for
the supreme test and shot over a right
cross to the point Of the chin and Ray
took the count of ten.
