French Boxer Is Ready and
Confident of Winning the
Title From Dempsey.

MANHAssEr. " y. June 26.-Georses
Carpenter will go into the ring at Jer-
sey City next Saturday with only one
thing in mind. an invincible deterrpina-
tion to wrest the worlds championship
from Jack Dempsey This was the as
sertion to-day OF Gus Wilson. the chal-
lenger's chief trainer.
There will be no snap for Jack Demp-
sey." Wilson said. "He will have TO be
more than great fighter TO beat
Georges. Never before in his fighting
career has Carpenter displayed such de-
terminate ton as he does to-day. When
he talks of the fight he grits his teeth
and clenches his fists and remarks. He
shall not beat me- Something tells me
that I can defeat him and ] shall do it..
His hardest blows will not find me and
those that he lands l know can
stand"
The challenger attaches a great deal
of sentiment TO the hundreds of letters
he receives daily from war veterans and
other Americans in all walks of life.
They want me to win." he said.
They expect ME 10 emerge from the
ring champion and will not disappoint
them II every bone in my body is
broken"
Before Georges came to America this
last time he had. according to Wilson.
naturally, a great desire to beat Demp-
sey. But this desire has increased TO
such an extent that now Carpenter can
not describe just what he feels.
THE Frenchman takes a great deal
of interest in the daily mail because he
likes to hear the many good things the
American public has to say about him. -
Trainer Wilson said. "He requires me
to read every one of them and he Is
ike big boy in displaying his appre-
citation. Really. they have helped him,
strange as It may seem, TO attain the
physical perfection you see in him to-
day"
Rain started falling early to-day at
the camp and the challenger was COM
PEELED to stay indoors until o'clock.
Then the clouds rolled by for a spell and
he was sent to the woods with Paul
Journee. They were out for about two
hours running. skipping, shadow boxing
and performing acrobatics. The rain
started again and they found shelter
in the gymna stun, where Georges spent
fifteen minutes at calisthenics before
lunch.
IN the afternoon Wilson and Capt.
Mallet took him for a long cross-country
walk. They returned about o'clock
and after a rundown Georges joined a
crowd of friends on the lawn. These
late afternoon social gatherings afford
him a diversion which Trainer Wilson
says Is needed after the workouts. be-
cause they help to keep him in good
humor.

To get into the possible physical con-

whom are calculated to look after his
interests. There is not the slightest

OF would-be friends and advisers who
persist In handing out gratuitous sug-

more harm than good. for their contin-

cause him some worry.
On the other hand. Dempsey's life Ia
SO well ordered at present that he must
benefit physically from that regularity
OF living. He eats but two meals a day.

While he is not faddist on the diet

the old inhibitlons as are still part OF
modern methods. His meals are whole

He keeps regular hours. rising at s 80

after which he takes breakfast. Some
time in the early afternoon he takes a
nap for an hour or so and then he turns
out for the heavy work OF the day at

Richards fairly overwhelmed Cawse
with his change of pace. net attack and
severity of stroke In the first set of yes
terday's final. Before Cawse could
fathom his style and adopt some definite
plan of combating II Richards had taken
six games in row in the first set and
three more in the second. Not until
then did Cawse finally succeed in placing
a game to his credit The latter was
too nervous to do himself justice, as II
was the first time he had played in so
important a match as metropolitan
championship final. For a long time
his stroke lacked it's customary smooth
ness. and he contributed as many points
on errors as Richards earned through
superior tactics and greater versatility
OF stroke.
Late in the second set Cawsc began
TO find himself. BY that time he had
rgained his control and his confidence
grew proportionately. He began getting
more steam and better direction in his
drives and by timing his shots we'll be-
gan passing Richards as the latter con-
tinued TO force the net. AS matter
