Round 2--Carpentier missed with a left
and then landed hard right to the chin
that sent Dempsey Keeling to the ropes.
The blow apparently disconnected the
champion and sent him back on his heels,
but he came back with terrific right
to the jaw that caused a look OF worry
from the Frenchmans handlers. They
went into clinch and when they were
separated Carpenter missed left to the
chin. Carpenter landed half dozen
rights and let's to the champions head.
Dempsey hooked a right to Carpenters
cheek and split the flesh under the right

The chief gathering place OF Amer

English and French on a huge screen.
Dempsey's victory was received with
wild cheering by the Americans, who
threw their hats in the air, while the
French spectators gazed up on the
Americans in silence.
Carpenters wife, when seen later,
said that the shock to her was very
severe and her greatest grief was that
she was not with Georges. Her one
desire was that her husband return to
her as soon as possible. She added
proudly, however. ''no matter what the

Dempsey was out-roughing his Trailer foe

Round 4--Dempsey rushed Carpenter

The continual bombardment of heavy

The bell at the end of the third round
found Carpenter in a semi-helpless
condition on the ropes and the gong
saved him from knockout at that
point.
The fourth and final round was soon
completed and the picture presented
by Carpenter helpless on the floor and
his stunned handlers in his corner was
in marked contrast to the supreme
air of confidence with which the
Frenchman entered the ring.
Carpenter was first to enter the
eighteen-foot pugilistic amphitheatre
at 1857 p. m. He wore gray silk
bath robe over his white silk trunks
and smiled and watched an airplane
flying overhead with the utmost UNI
concern. At p. m, sharp, the cham
pion followed wearing a dark maroon
sweater and white trunks. Manager
Descamps was fussy about the BAN
daging on Dempsey's hands which was
twice as heavy as that which Carpen-

fists. There was little delay in the
usual preliminaries TO championship

the men to the center of the ring for
the championship battle. Thirteen
minutes later the great international

was over and Carpenter was being
half carried half dragged to his COR
ner by the police and his seconds.
Helpless and and groggy and with
blood smeared face, he did not re-
semble in the slightest particular the
super confident challenger of a few
minutes before.
Across the room Jack Dempsey sat
in his corner with not a mark on his
face or body. Francois Descamps was
ministering to his crushed idol as he
sobbed and chartered in French. When
finally Carpenter could arise, he
staggered to the center OF the ring

Lower Prices
on Nash Cars
Effective July 2

Nash prices will be reduced, effective
July 2.
This conforms to our statement made
last October that Nash prices would be
maintained until at least July /, 1921.
The reasons were plain. Until man
ufacturing costs were lower we could
not cut price without cutting value, as
Nash prices were not inflated.
We pointed out then that while the
average rise in the price of motor cars
for four-year period had been rs per
cent the price of Nash cars had been
raised but 81 per cent.
This 81 per cent included the addition
of cord tires as standard equipment
and many other additions and refine
ments which added materially to the
value of Nash cars.
So we re-affirmed our fixed inten-
ton of rigidly upholding the high quail
ity of Nash cars.
