What makes the girls love | Georges so?"
 Now, according to all the laws of the Medes and Persians. the right answer should be:
 "'Cause Georges loves the girls, you known,
 One has always felt that the laws Tnutable, whatever that is. but, this time they fail because Georges DOESN'T love the girls - that is, only one, his own little French wifei pasted up on the walls so little | tenographers and telephone opera tors and waitresses and office girls can see, are pictures of Georges Car pentier, French challenger for the worlds heavyweight boxing title.
 But you can't really blame the girls much, at that, if he IS a good looking felfCw
 Even better looking in the flesh than in his photographs, is assured by Tad" Jordan genial man-about- town and friend of Louie Bogash, Joe Smith, and all the rest of Bridge ports popular fstic fraternity.
 ''CaTpentier is a perfect gentle man." asserted Tad recently "Un- assuming, retiring almost to a fault, he is difficult of access, even by his friends.
 A Good Dresser.
 You really can't blame all the American girls for going crazy over Georges" he continued, flor he seems to be composed of everything that our girls like. He's a blonde with really light hair and blue eyes His skin is like marble-pink and healthy looking. He never gets really red, even in the thickest of a bout. He is tall and muscular and wears his clothes we'll While I wouldn't call him a flop, still he is always up to-date in his dress and immaculate in his linen"
 Mr. Jordan is fully convinced that Carpenter Cpronounced Kar-pan-tee- ay, accent on the last syllaable) will win from Jack Dempsey. present
 And science will do it," he de- clares- While Jack has a terrible wallop, Georges has. too, but in my opinion-and I have seen Georges fight many times the F'renchman will win, and will win because of his superior knowledge of the science of the game
 There have been criticisms of Carpenter; that he was training in private because he was afraid. Be Heve me, that is one thing that bird is NOT! He did his bit in the French air service; was wounded and has been granted numerous medals He certainly didn't get them because he was yellow
 ''Carpentier has been fighting since he was a little boy It's funny, but Descamps, his manager, was the man who first taught him how to box. Young Georges was sent to a physical culture school where he progressed so rapidly and showed so well that he attra the attention of Des- camps who began showing him in the ring, where he has been ever since.
 Sure He'll Win

 'Aw, go onI' interrupted Lou Bo- gash, who was an interested listener to the conversation, along with Joe Smith, his well known trainer.
 'tCarpentier hasn't got a chance Brute strength will win this fight and Dempsey'S got tt-lots of it"
 That's my dope, too," chirped Joe.
 Here's what they all think about him:
 Dempsey strength; Carpentier- science, say the men,
 psey-beefy and ugly; Carpen- ier-buiIt like a blonde angel-say he girls.
 Dempsey - bulldog; Carpentier- the dogs.
