Perhaps there is no boxer or expert
on this side of the pond better quail

Carpenter than is Joe Jeanette the
veteran heavyweight. There Is no
man i'm the squared circle with a bot

Jeanette is fairminded critic and
unbiased in his views. Besides having

lowed the career OF the French boxer

Jack Dempsey and no other lighter"
said Jeanette yesterday. can so into
the ring against Carpenter with the
impression the Frenchman is rot a
great fighter. In the Frenchman
Dempsey will meet the most difficult
proposition Jack ever has tackled.
Georges is fast. clever and strong. has
a shrewd fighting head. and is good
ring general. He is courageous and
cool in the pinches. Jack never met
