James Might Tell
Georges Something
By HENRY L. FARRELL,
United Proaa StaH Correapondent.

NEW YORK, March 19-wee James
Wilde, No. /. of the fyYelght ten, can
whisper q few things in Georges Carpen-
tiers ear. With flashes in mind of the
bumps he hit before he got going good,
the noted citizen of Pontypridd might
say to the Frenchman before he takes
Go easy, Georges; If you must fight
even the bally set-ups, as they say here,
take your time. old chappie."
Into the ears Of the newly|wed French
man the same tune that the diminutive
Wilde heard will be poured: "Heres
something soft for a nice bunch Of coin.
You can polish him off in couple Of
rounds without training" Georges may
fall for it and take unto himself a couple
of black eyes such as gave little Jimmy
such a dismal outlook In the United
States.
Wilde made his mistake in turning
deaf ear to the tips Of American friends
who counseIled him to take things easy
before he pulled on the gloves. He didn't.
He had to stoop for the bag of coin.

$50. 900 attraction he dropped to the SIS, 900
class overnight.
Then he had to hit the tank line and
