IT to be supposed that Carpenter can

Hes Best In Europe.
That one-round victory over Joe
Beckett merely means that Carpen-
tier is the best boxer in Europe, moth
ing more. The caliber Of the Eu-
rcpean boxers is not shown. It is
folly. too, to tell of Carpentiers de-
feats by Frank Klaus and Billy Papke
He was a middleweight then. a green
one, too. battling two experienced
sluggers.
Five years ago Carpenter lost a
decision to Joe Jeanette in fifteen
rounds, but at that time crafty old
Joe knew too much for Carpenter.
Not one of the Frenchman's victories
has been over a boxer anywhere near
Dempsey's class, but they all have
been over the best Europe had to
offer.
Truth to tell. Europe has no high
class ring performers. Bombardier
Wells, an Adonis in form and a good,
two-handed boxer, lacks stamina.
Since his day, which has now gone,
Carpenter Is the best. The Becketts,
the Goddards and the Langleys are
mere ham and" boxers.

outpoint him in twenty rounds, but
