SAMM|ES ENJOY MANY BOUTS IOF SQUARED CIRCLE IN FRANCE

Paris, Feb. 24.--A few years ago Sam Fitzpatrick, the veteran man. ager of ring artists, brought Peter Jackson to Paris. On another journey the manager piloted Kid Levigne to the French metropolis, after the American had captured the light weight championship of the world from Burge of England. At that time the French people had no inter- est in the affairs of the hempen square end both Jackson and Levigne spent their time in viewing the different points of interest.
 Now it is different. A few nghts ago the same Sam Fitzpatrick, now a Knights of Columbus secretary, was present at a boxing carnival staged by the Knights of Columbus in Paris, and more than 5000 soldiers of every nationality watched the excellent card which was presented by J. J. Carey, the boxing impressario.
 All available space ;n the large the ater was occupied. Men stood in chairs, crouched over tho balcony and stood in the aisles. Soldiers of ev- cry nationality gathered to watch the excellent entertainment which had been provided. Boxing has made it's mark in Paris.
 Cosmopolitan Crowd.
 It was truly a cosmopolitan audi ence. The American soldiers were in the majority. but scattered through the crowd were French, English, Bel gians, Italians and fighters from many other nationalities. In the front rows one caught glimpse of colonels, majors, newspaper coEre- spon6ents here for the peace confer ence, members of the embassy, busi- ness men of the city and the real boxing fans from the French capital
 The real boxing fan was there. A doughboy from Boston stationed in the Balcony exclaimed on many occa- sions: Get him in the corner, :" ssMakc him lift his bean". A few seats away a colored boy from Mississippi yelled. "Slip him one from me, Slim" When boy was introduced from New York, the soldiers from the Empire state went wild. The same held good when the young ring artist hailed from Keolluk or Kalamazoo.
 And best of all--the American boys who watched the American boxers battle with the French were fair in every sense of the word. Whenever the French ringman clearly outpOirt- ed the lad from the United States he was given an ovation by the dough- boys. On this evening the American boxers trinmphed. winning three bouts out of five, and getting a draw in thu other two affairs
 The French boxers displayed some remarkable work on the defensive, but the majority of them failed to take advantage of the effective use of the "uppercut". Tn 8 few short years they have developed to re- markable extent, but they have failed to show as much on the attack as the Americans. Boxing promises to become as popular in France as in the Untied States, and the Knights of Columbus, in staging weekly bouts, have done much to foster the manly art throughout France
