Carpenter Cannot
 Box For 10 Months
Frenchmans Sudden Change of Front Which Dfsappoints American Fans, Makes Match With Dempsey
 In This Country Very Improbable

New York, March a5-In view of the contradictory and confusing statements in circulation regarding a possible contest between Jack Demp- sey, heavyweight champion of the world, and Georges Carpenter, heavyweight champio of Europe, it may not be out of place to illuminate the situation with a few indfsputable facts.
 On the arrival here of the French cham pion last Tuesday he and his manager declared that a bout with Dempsey would. be very welcome, and the sooner 1t was arranged the better pleased they would be. Also that it made no difference where the contest was staged.
 Descamps added that Carpenter was under contract to Charles B. Cochran, the London promoter, till Dec. 31, 1920, and that the British promoter had until that time to get Dempsey's signature to an agreement,
 Then came Ric3Qard, 0 promoter with a tendency to insist on definite answers to strict business proposi- tfons. Rfc4xard a3ced DescaInps if in the event of Denapey being acquitted of Che charge against him. and con senting to sign with Ricl1ard previous
 
 tract, Carpenter would be willing to box the worlds champion next Sep teEaaber> or October,
 The na1sRag@r Of tfsa Frezss-3a cham p5on said CarpE1tier would not be ready to box by thai time, despite the fact that on the deck of La Savofe the Frenchnsan deGaa5red he was eager for 3, speedy meeting with Dempsey
 RicAzard then asked if Descamps would say how soon Carpenter would box Dempsey i'm casA the American boxer was cleared of the accusation agzirst him. and the reply was that it would be ten upruEhs before Car peutier wou1ds be fit, to meet Dempsey: which wonld take the bout into Janu- ary, 1S21-
 The clainn that the French ctsaCa- piou could not get into condition for a bout inside of ten months is an aston ising one considering the superb phy- sical condition he possessed on Dee 4 1919 wben he stopped Jc4 Beckett ir a round
 As tfare is not q Dc&zazole chance o1 Dempsey going to Europe for a, bout and as R5c2Eard can get Dempsey signature to an agreement any time he wants 10, it begins to look as tho1gh the exported match between Dempsey and the F'pechman had gone g1HnTneTiuE-
 The remarkable change of front or the pant of the F7renchI1asl and his manager regarding Dempsey bOU- will prove a. great disappointment tt the boxing enthusiasts of this country ' who were much interested in the pro posed meeting. The collapse of ths match also will knock the. props iron beneath the people who have been as esf1TfTnr- t11E3f inc Wa I3Egar bin was to b+ put through so that a chaInpionshiI bout between Dempsey and Carpen, tier could be held at the Internationa Sporting Club.

The Giants pulled up to within a
 run of their opponents in their half of the fifth. Burns led off and drew a pass. Young put him on third with a single to right and Fletcher drove a sacrifice fly to Hendrix, on which Burns counted. The count was knotted in the sixth when Kelly hit the ball over the left field fence.
 In the eighth, singles by Hendrix, Marsans and McInnis and an error by Hubben gave the Sox another run Scott opened the eighth with a double against the left field fence and Devine followed with a single to cen tre on which Scott scampered home.

LINE ROADS WITH TREES.
IT nuiavi11a COr,rier.Iorrno1

The time will come when every
state will plant and protect trees
along highways. At present the en-
lightened are inclined to look on the
more enlightened as faddists or
cranks when they insist that no pro-
gram of public improvement is COM
plete that does not include trees for
public roads.
Delaware, a state which has come
recently to the fore as al improvcr
of roads, will have treelined high
ways and between the trees. where
conditions warrant it. the roads will
be bordered with shrubbery.

Another whistler painting, his
Portrait of a Little Girl" has come
to this country, and has been
bought by a private collector. The
picture has for many years belonged
to Thomas Agnew of London, by
whom it was sold to New York, who
in r promptly sold it to a private
individual for $4,000.
The subject of the painting is a
little girl of about 10 years Of age,
with brown eyes and hair and a vel
vet frock. The charm of character,
pose and color mark the picture as
one of the artists most notable pro-
ductions. 1t was painted in 1894
Not very many years at the
time Of the purchase by the Luxem-
bourg Museum of the famous "Por-
trait Of My Mother" the Metropou-
stitute of Chicago both had the OPP
portunity> SO buy his MASTERPIECES,
but did not avail themselves Of it.
Since then, however, every important
canvas by Whistler, that, has come
the market, is. now In this.

lections have been enriched by his
etchtngs and photographs. showing
the increasing appreciation Of hin
