star, in 10 rounds followed. And In
the meantime Georges knocked out
Jim Campbell in 5 frames and bat
tied Jean Andony TO l0-round
draw.
That finished the featherweight
career. Georges was growing rap
idly and when he next stepped into
the ring II was as a lightweight.
Ed Brochet was one OF the first bat
tiers to connect with him in this
class. He connected, in the. 7th
round. with Carpenters right, and
went down in a heap.
In those days George Randall was
stepping some In the British pugi-
listic world. He was thought fit
ting man to hand the fair-haired
French speed boy a cleaning. Ran
dell eyed Carpenters record and set
sail for Paris to conquer.
Two bouts resulted. In the first
Randall lost on a decision in 10
rounds and in the second he was
knocked out in half that time.
Daniels Licked Again
Then Carpenter drew a blank
from one of his own countrymen.
Henri Piet had all the best OF a To-
round argument. This gave Jack
Daniels, British fighter, new heart
and he requested "a second go with
Georges. Once more 10-round go
found Daniels on the wrong end of
a decision.
England then bid once more by
sending Young Nipper across the
pond to fight Carpenter. This Brit
Usher was a tough bird and before
the fight his chances looked mighty
good. After the fight, It was a diff
ferent story. Carpenter got the de-
cision in s frames.
Georges then moved into the well
terweight class and won three
straight 10-round bouts from Jack
Meekins, Sid Stagg and Geo. Col
bourne, all Englishmen.
He then was matched to meet his
first American opponent.

STATE GETS BIG REVENUE
 FROM TOLL BRIDGE CHARGES

The state of Connecticut's monopoly on toll bridges provides a large sum of money which is expended along with the thousands of dollars received in auto mobile fees for road construction and maintenance. . port of Highway Commissioner Charles J. Bennett show that the three toll bridges. Thames river, Saybrook June tion and East Haddam, took in a total of s1S4,7s1.S6 during the year 1920.
 It is believed that after deduction is made for the cost of operation of the bridges at least $150,0oO will be velvet for the department. This money is eX- pended for state highways in whatever cides is in most need of road repair or improvement Just now New London is obtaining benefit from new highways as a splendid 40 mile concrete road is in course of construction.
 New London. however. Is unfortunate ly situated with respect to toll bridges and the belief is strong here that the time is close when toll bridges should be free. and an effort is to be made to bring this about. or to secure at least a reduction of toll charges.
 If tNe monies received from bridge tolls should. be applied to wiping out the cost of construction of the bridge it would
 be of some satisfaction, but when the ne earnings are devoted to road construc
 tion, the cost of the bridge remains un paid for
 The Saybrook bridge has been taking
 toll long enough to have paid for the original investment and at the presen
 rate of earnings of the Thames rivel
 bridge it will be but few years wher sufficient funds would be accumulated tt
 pay for the cost of transforming it iron
 a railroad to a highway bridge The following figures submitted by tn,
 commissioner show the earnings of tn
