l to knock out Reddy-but to no avail.
 But the fight was perhaps the funniest ever staged in New York, inasmuch as
 Ledoux, in trying for knockout, al-
 most hurled himself out of the ring with every wild swing. And he swung wildly about 120 times per round. Marcelle Mareaux, middleweIght, was another French invader. He came heralded as a great fighter-but never showed any such characteristics when pitted against Americans. And the same thing goes for Albert Badoud. the welterweight who fought around
 the east with indifferent success. That quartet makes up the best of
 the French fighters who came here.
 Many were touted as great men Per- haps they were--according to French standards But each struck a tartar target on American soil.
 Whether Carpenter will display his fistic powers while in this country is a question that cannot be answered at this time. The chances are, however, | that he will not do any fighting here but simply fulfll his theatrical and moving picture contracts. But it would be a good thing for the game if Car pentier. even if he does not meet Demp- sey. took on one or another of the
 American fighters just so the public here could get line on his fistic ability.
 Carpentier undoubtedly is the fore most French fighter of any era He has performed splendidly when pitted
 against French and English fighters.
 But Carpenter, before the war. did not
 show very well against some of the
 American fighters who took him on.
 Undoubtedly the Frenchman has iu-
 proved wonderfully since that time
 and is really the great fighter that he
 is pictured to be by his press agents. And then, again, Carpenter may, when
 faced by real fistic wonder of Amer
 ica show up none too well.
 It is to be hoped, for the good of boxing, that Carpentier does engage in at least one battle while here and that he takes for his opponent--if he
 doesn't take on Jack Dempsey--a fighter who can give the best exhibit tion of first class fighting.

 1E RANGE has sent Georges Car
 pentier to America-undoubt- edly the most conspicuous fighter the French nation ever pro- duced.
 The coming of this gladiator from Paris brings to memory the fact that practically all of the other French warriors who invaded American ter ritory never amounted to an awful lot in the prize ring of this country.
 Most foreigners-with the exception of Australians who invade these shores usually have a rough trip. Many English phenoms have been knocked out and pushed into the discard in their earliest battles. And the same thing has happened to most of the Frenchmen who have battled here.
 Louis De Pontheau was a lightweight who journeyed to, this country about eight years ago. He came at the sug gestion of Frank Erne. who thought an awful lot of his ability. De Pon- theau took on such men as Johnny Griffith, Joe Shugrue, Matty Baldwin and Joe Coster His showing in all of these bouts was only ordinary.
 De Pontheau was pretty good me- chanical fighter, but seemed to lack a lot in brains. He would go along very nicely for number of rounds, and as long as he. wasn't in trouble he would do very well. But just as soon as he got an awful smash upon the head or the body he would go utterly to pieces. as far as ring gen. eralship was concerned and from then on became mark for his opponents.
 Charlie Ledoux visited the U. s. A. along in 1912, He fought in the feath- erweight and bantamweight class. He had made quite a record in England and France and figured that he would clean up the American fighters with out much trouble Those who saw Le- doux in action in bouts here always claim that he was the widest and at the same time the most aggressive bat tier that ever drew on a glove.
 His first contest was against a me- diocre performer known as Battling Reddy, Ledoux, in an effort to estab- fish himself as 8 great fighter. tried
