New-York tribune., 1921-06-26

You remember the recipe for making%
rabbit pie-"first catch your hare
and we will say that this is good
thing for Dempsey to remember if he
wants to lick Georges in the friendly
little bout which has been arranged
by some enthusiasts for July 2.
When we were in Mexico we stead
fastly refused to so to bullhghts.
When we arc In America we stead
lastly refuse to go to prizehghts. That
is, we did refuse. But not now. We
are going to see Carpenter knock out
Denpsey if we have to go without any
more hats until autumn. Last week
We felt different-indifferen perhaps
we should say. So much so that when
boys lottery we sold it. However, as
Eddie Cantor says, a $40 ticket only
entities it's holder to a seat in the Sec
end row in Newark and we are going
to sit closer than that.
You see, when we were asked TO do
the story we had never seen Carpenter,
SO that had nothing to do with the
case. 1t was not even that we felt we
should like to know something of prize
fighting. 1t was because every one we
knew had, been out to Manhasset ana
we felt we were missing something.
We were astonished when Mr.. Mac
beth said 'You can't be sure of get
ting in, but guess it will ba all right,
if you go with Fred Hawthorne" An
interview always the open sesame
to movie studios and theaters. but you
see, Carpenter doesn't care to be IN
terviewed, and FRANCOIS Desehamps
won't let him be, anyhow.
Dust Brushed From French
~ guess I can get you in," said Mr.
interview him? He doesn't speak any
English" So all the way out there
We practiced up on our French. "Je
t'aine heucoup" "Voulez-vous
nj 'embrasser?' "Mon Dieu" "oui'' and
"Passez-moi lie pain, sill vous plait,"
though this last wasn't going to be
of much use unless he invited US to
luncheon. On the road we met Hope
Hampton and Eve Gosnell and Allen
Dwan and Edgar Selwyn and Jules
Brulatour and Neysa McMein and Mrs.
Sally Farnham and Janet Flanner, so
it looked as though we might join
forces and rush the gate if we were
barred out. However, after debating
long, long time the gatekeeper let us
in and we walked a few steps and
pasture.
AS soon as we arrived Carpenter
came out, although we are not coneeit-
ed enough to connect the two cireum-
stances.
where is Mr., Dempsey said Hope
Hampton.
"Oh, he isn't here!" said Heysa Nc
Mein, who seemed to know all about il,
she having been out there before.
"Mr. Dempsey holds the worlds rec
ord, doesn't he" we asked Miss Me-
Mein, wishing to learn all about this
new sport. But before she had time to
a little bit of fellow whom they
called Marcel Wave. His last name is
really Denys.
Enormous Joe Jeanette
Oh, how we wished that this was
Dempsey, but they tell us that Denp-
sey is much larger than Carpenter.
Fos. all that. he is really going to try
TO knock out Carpenter if he can or
the Cd, while Carpenter isn't at al,
like that. He didn't try to knock out
Denys; he just danced around the ring
with him and hit him in the face
few times, and then bell rang. and
Carpenter smiled all around the ring
and danced up to meet Italian j oe. sur
name Cana. Then followed Paul Jour.
nee, and, last of all, a very dark, ener-
nous man named Joe Jeanette. This
one we didn't care for at all, He
looked exactly like the "boy" who let
the elevator drop with US in it two
years ago, though Fred Hawthorne as
sured us that he couldn't be the same.
At any rate, he got Carpenters beauti-
full head over his shoulder and then
pounded him in the solar piexus again
and sgain. We shut our eyes, but tn :
whacks made a queer hollow sound
landing on Carpenters stomach, an1
we began to feel ILL., HMake him stopl'
