Tho nictures settle without question
- Sonbt that Carpenter came within
. t.oction OF winning the heavyweight
s,arr when he staggered the champion
vh uh . right cross, followed by two
o,h., S rights on the jaw and then two
nppercuts inside. The frst blow sent
I1empsey backward half way across the
riur, He stopped fiat footed almost
,yalnst the ropes, where he covered up
as Carpenter came tearing in. And

iorced TO clinch and hold on, all the

After Carpenter had virtually punched
himself out Jack opened up, and then
Il was the beginning of the end for the
Frenchman. Before the second round
vns over, even though Carpenter had
shown to advantage by far. Dempsey
rallied and had Carpenter backing
away, ducking, lodging and sliding
along the ropes. Several close-ups are
shown during this round, including the
staggering punches of Carpenter that
had Dempsey tottering temporarily.
Carpentier started to make run
away battle Of It in the third round
and the close up shows the Frenchmar
almost pushed himself through the ropes
lin trying to elude the closely following
Dempsey. Several times Georges
stopped in his tracks, and he can b,
plainly seen, high up on his toes, sud
denly lunge at Dempsey with either 6
straight left or a right cross. But tn,
pictures show clearly Carpenter, hi
