MORRIS GETS MORE TIME
TO TRAIN FOR DEMPSEY

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 5-CarI Nor

asked for more time to train for his
twenty-round bout with Jack Demp-

postponed the scrap from next Satur-

later.
Dempsey met Morris nearly a year
ago at Buffalo. N. Y. Morris fouIed
him, sending him to the mat. When
the referee was about to dislunIjfy
the oklahoman, Dempsey pushed hin,
aside. saying, Never mind, I'll settle

battered Morris all over the ring and
left him hanging helpless on the ropes
when Morris seconds tossed in the

T. C. boys not graduated from
high school who entered college
last fab under the army act?
Many queries have been coming
forth from youngsters who would
like to return to high school to
graduate and then enter college
next fall. ..S
Some of the lads, who played
on the s. A. T. C. football teams,
by the way, maintain that they
are not college men. They say
they are still high school stu
dents, are eligible to return and
graduate and play on the high
school teams, as their status is
not affected. Here's a pretty
problem for some one.

"Haw, haw, haw," is the jeerIng re-

would growl at all complaints and
chuckle quietly to himself.

Dunn said he had heard the rumors
about Foil to be succeeded by
Speaker or some other baseball man,
but he hadn't made up his mind
whether there would be a change or
not. The end OF the war threw base
ball men somewhat in the air, ac-
cording to Dunn. who said they were
all "set" to keep closed during 1919
and that up to the present they
haven't had a chance to catch up
with things.

Carpenters greatest claim to the
attention OF Americans is his victory
over Gunboat Smith in London, July
! 16, 1914. He won on a foul in six
rounds after making a holy show Of
the Californian. Carpenter was
lightning fast compared to the slow
footed and also slow-witted Smith.
There never was any doubt in the
minds of those who witnessed the
bout that the Frenchman was the
master.
But Carpenters ring record, while
amazing to Frenchmen, is not start.
ling to Americans with any knowl-
edge OF ring history. During the
spring, on March 81, 1914, to be ex-
act, Joe Jeanette, the New York
colored heavyweight, outpointed Car
pentier in fifteen rounds at Paris
The Frenchman was just twenty
years old then and lacked the ring
knowledge of the American colored
man.
In 1911, when Carpenter was a
niddleweight, he took on Dixie Kid,
an American negro with a wicked
wallop, and went to sleep in fve
+
him a terrific beating for nineteen
rounds at Dieppe before the French
man fouled his opponent, while four
months later Billy Papke. Stanley
KetchePs old rival for the middle
weight title. dropped him in eighteen
rounds at Paris.
American ring followers give Car
pentier little credit for his two quick
victories over Bombardier Wells, for
the Englishman has a glass jaw. Al
Palzer, recently shot and killed by
his father in a quarrel, took a sad

Therefore Carpenters four-round

against Wells. mean little or nothing
II Carpenter is accompanied TO
America by a wise manager, he will
try him out before tackling the best
we have to offer. II he can weigh
as much as $50 pounds, he will do
well to meet Billy Miske or Battling

The Colorado Catamount weighs 1876

scale that much he will do well to |
steer clear OF either Dempsey or Will
