Jack Blocks Blows
Most of the body blows Dempsey
blocked or partly checked with el-
bows and forearms, but he was not
able to protect his face as well Time
and again Georges shot over his right
to Dempsey's face and in the second
round when he turned loose the heav-
lest batteries of his blows it appear
ed as though the champion might be
forced to assume q defensive attitude.
The pause in Dempsey's attack, how
ever, was due more to surprise anG
fluster at the savageness OF his OPP
ponent's rally. After a few seconds
of INDIGESTION he gathered himself to-
gether and although the round was
undoubtedly Carpenters on aggres-
siveness and clean blows landed,
there was not the slightest evidence
that Dempsey had been hurt by Car
.pentier's punches.
He shot out of his corner at the bell
for the third round with every en-
dence OF an intention to finish the
battle. With a menacing scowl on
his dark features, he followed Carpen-
tier about the ring as the latter side
stepped and ducked the lunges in an
endeavor to corner the challenger.
Croucl1ing low and with body ana
fists swinging from side to side, nc
crept after Carpenter until he caught
him on the ropes near neutral cor
ner and began the battering which
presaged the end There was little
question in the minis of the more ex-
pert among the spectators as to Sae
ultimate outcome. Carpenter with his
speed of foot gone, confidence shat
tered and blood running from his nose
and mouth and cash over his cheek
bone, looked like hunted animal
Dempsey, without mercy, and like
an avenging nemesis, punished Car
pentier without mercy
The bell at the end of the third
round found Carpenter in a semi
oelpiess condition on the ropes and
the gang saved him from a knockout
