able. His blows were well Delivered
and effective, while Levinsky's plucky
returns were too light to cut any figure.
Twice in the second round, Carpenter
sent Levinsky to the floor of the ring
with hard right crosses. During the
third session, Carpenter slowed up a
bit and seemed undecided as to what his
next move should be. When he did
start after his man, however, he used
both hands powerfully and Levlnsky,
who always was credited with being
able to absorb punishment, was visibly
weakening.
Levinsky Is Battered
In the final round Carpenter simply
battered Levinslxy into submission and
when the battler fell almost through the
ropes in neutral corner, he was unable
to get up while Referee Ertle counted
him out.
Levinsky was badly punished while
Carpenter did not show mark when
he left the ring.
Round One
The men shook hands at 1920. Car
pentier led left and right, landing light
ly. LevinslSy sent left and right to body
at close quarters. Carpenter landed a
hard right on the forehead and blocked
a right Clearly. Carpenter sent right
and left to body. Levinsky countered
right on head. Carpenter crossed his
right to face and hooked left to stom-
ach. Both were very cool and sparring

Round Two
They exchanged body blows. Carpen-
tier stood off and motioned Levinsl<y to
come in. Levinsky sent right and left
to face. Then he drove his right to
head and followed with left and right
to the jaw sending Levinsky down in his
corner for the count of eight.
Again with stiff let's and a right
swing to head Carpenter sent Levin

eight. Levinsky was groggy, but wealth

Round Three
Carpenter rushed and landed his
right to head. Levinsky clinched. Car
pentier missed right and left for the
head Levinsky jabbed three let's to
face and Carpenter hooked left to face

kept him off with light let's. Carpen-

the bell rang. Carpenters round.
Round Four
Both fiddled for 80 seconds. Then
Carpenter drove Levinsky across the
ring landing lefts and rights at will

MAN O. WAR WINS GREAT
RACE FROM SIR BARTON

The thoroughbred championship of
the continent rests on the, American
side of the border Man O. War, the
greatest three-year-o1d of the year,
galloped home with the equine honors
of 1920 at Kenilworth Jockey Club
track, Tuesday afternoon, full eight
lengths in front of Sir Barton, the great
four-year-o from Commander J. K.
L. Ross stables. The time was 2 :03,
more than full second faster than the
old Canadian record for the distance.
Samuel D. Riddle of Philadelphia,
owner of the victor, is richer by the
purse of $4,000 and a gold cup valued
at $1,000
The race was over a course of a
mile and quarter at weight for age,
the winner carrying 100 pounds to the
losers 1z6. A 81 ticket on the winner
paid $40.
Record Crowd Turns Out
Between 10000 and $4,000 persons
paid to see the two great horses race,
the attendance figures and gate receipts
setting new high mark in the history
of Canadian racing.
The time, 2:03 flat, was more than

Of 2:01 As, which was later tied by
Man O War. The slow time was partly
due to the fact that the victor was
never in danger from the time he took
the lead at the first sixteenth pole

Sir Barton drew the rail and was
away with jump, but the lead was
short lived. Jockey Clarence Hummer

The result of the race, was no SUR

the American horse heavy favorite,

nander Ross to disp1ace Jockey Sande,

press stand shortly after noon, was the
one sensation of the race Sande was
considered the premier horseman of the
Canadian camp, and, in fact, Clarence

might ride the Bidd1e horse.

the only professional baseball player to
make triple play, unassisted. Hines

from 40 years ago, a member of the

CAMBRIDGE BULL DOGS
DEFEATED BY WILLIAMS

The champion Williams team started
the home season in whirlwind style
by Overwhelmingly defeating the strong
Cambridge Bulldogs, last Sunday, by q
score of Al to 0. The team from
Cambridge were without the services OF
George Brickley, the head bite, but
there were a number of former college
stars in the lineup, among them six
former Harvard players and part of the
present coaching staff of Harvard. and
while they lost the game by a one-sided
score, they showed signs of first class
football at various intervals, but this
was so inconsistent that it went for
naught
The Williams tried everything that
goes with their football program of
plays, and gained when territory was
needed, Hank" Hanlon standing out
as the leading light of the day, starting
off with rs yard run and thereafter
heavlng with accuracy to his team
mates.
The college stars caused much trou-
Bile for the Williams, however, for
Pryor, the big center of Tufts college,
while on the offensive shifted the ball a
few inches each time sufficient to draw
the Williams linemen offside, causing
many penalties for off side playing
Weatherhead, Nelson, Billy Murray
captain of Harvard, 1919, Bowles and
Ryan of Harvard showed Harvard
training particularly in their style of
tackling, attracting the attention of the
crowd. The former Harvard players
in their exhibition of tackling, assumed
a rather unusual style, throwing them
selves directly at the runners.
The Williams forward rush line
worked remarkably. The entire line
from tackle to tackle aided their back
held players by opening large gaps
against their college opponents. Sher-
man, the Williams rowing center, car
ried the honors of the day in the line
breaking up plays and recovering
fumbles, also intercepting passes over
the line
Murray and Scan1on of Boston col
lege did well on the defense for the
visitors and executed two successful
forward passes for short gains.
The Bulldog eleven acquired three
first downs, two of this number being
gained with the aid of penalties on
the Williams. The Bay State eleven
lost considerable ground by fumb1ing
the ball, the ball being recovered by the
locals in most cases.
About 1900 witnessed the game,
college brilliants in action being Tim
Callahan, captain of Yale, and Johnny
Mack, the Yale trainer
The Williams scored II points in the
first half, Bradford getting the first
touchdown, after his teammates had
taken the ball down the field by hitting
the line and working short passes. The
second touchdown followed after the
kickoff, which Hank" Hanlon ran back
for IS yards to the eight yard line,
taken over by Quinn.
Klapperoth secured the third touch
down. after receiving a forward pass
from Hanlon, the Williams fu1lback
going through his opponents for SO
yards.
Shaffnit was the next to score a
touchdown on tumble running over
the line for touchdown in the early
part of the second half Shatzman
and Bradford each earned a touchdown
in the last period battering their way
through the Bulldogs line.
Ross Stanwood missed in one of
six tries for goals after touchdown.
