mors floating around the large circle
Of Auditorium followers that the
Perth Amboy team will have to beat

BILE utility men. All of the seven men

Whether Hoffman win endeavor to

With Bob Martin.
Georges Carpenter will whip Joe
Beckett. He is too good a man for
the Briton. The fstic fans over on
his side do not know what a great
boxer the Frenchman is. He is I'M
derestimated.
He can hit as hard as Beckett and
he can take the punishment, too.
lust wait until he and the English
man get into the ring and then you'll
poor condition are just the bunk.
One of the fellows who said Car
pentier was not in shape and was no
longer the fighter of old was on the
English channel with me at the time
he claimed he was watching the
Frenchman work. He manufactured
that story.
Carpenter Is one of the prettiest
boxers l ever saw work. He Is a
flash of speed and he can hit fairly
well, too.
He is at his best now and will give
Beckett a whipping, I think. There
Is no man or the other side OF the
Atlantic who compares with him.
Rut now when comparing him
with Americans I can't say as much.
T don't think either Beckett or Car
pentier is a match for Dempsey.
Jack would win I'm q walk.
Some fans say that Beckett would
prove the better opponent for Demp-
sey because of his ruggedness and
hitting powers. Well, Carpenter car
take some punishment and he car
hit as hard, maybe harder.

Georges Carpenter and Joe Beck
EFT who meet IN the london ring
Dec. 4 for the European heavyweight
title and the opportunity of meeting
Jack Dempsey for the world title. are
not youngsters in the game. They
are veterans of many years in n
squared circle-a dozen years each to
be exact. And these European heav-
les are but boys. Beckett is "a and
Carpenter rs. Joe Beckett began
fghting when he was twelve years
old and Carpenter when he was thir-
teen. They fought their way up from
boyhood and from the featherwe1ght
class to the heavies. And here they
are in their prime twelve years since
they made their start. Their cases
are remarkable. Few ring men In
America ever fought with such vigor
after so many years in the ring.
And they are mighty light for
heavies, They are what we would
call light heavies or "~overgTown mid
dleweights." Beckett weighs 1874 and
Carpenter 173. Beckett is Ave feet,
ten inches tall. Carpenter, perhaps,
Is slightly taller.
Carpenter is the best known of
the two because of his sensational
career in the French ring prior to
he war. He has spent almost five
wears in war service M so really Is
doing a comeback stunt. Carpenter
has fought several Americans-Frank
Klaus, Billy Papke, and Willie Lewis
with little success. He won from
Lewis but was beaten by Papke and
Klaus. He also lost to Joe Jeanette
and won on a foul from Gunboat
Smith.
Beckett's experience with Ameri-
can fighters is limited to the recent
go with Eddie McGoorty which he
won by a knockout in the seven
teenth round.
Beckett has been climbing rapidly
to the front in the last few months.

After losing to Dick Smith and Frank
Goddard in 1915 he started this year
with victories over Hy Reeve and
Billy Wells. Then he polished off
Frank Goddard, who previously had
knocked him out, with a sleep punch
in two rounds.
There is considerable speculation
as to who is the hardest hitter Of the
two. Naturally the fans are i'm
pressed with Beckett's recent knock
out victories. He has been finishing
them up a la Dempsey. Carpenter
has taken his time about rounding
into shape since he finished his war
service and those who have seen him
say he is right.
