Georges Carpenter, with a long
string OF victories c'n' English
figl ters. had not yet ciashcG with
an American opponent up to the
carly part OF 1921.
Frank Loughrey, of Pittsburgh at
tia time. was creating quiz a STIR
across the pond. and Georges was
signed to battle him in Paris. The
bout went the full 10 rounds but
Carpenter had all the Dest of II.
Success had been so kind TO

men. that but one fighter stood be-
tween him and the weller weight

tier. Robert Eustache. had cleaned
up on all OF the topnotch scrappers.
and the welter crown rested ON his
head.

The scrap was arranged and Car
pentier won a decision and the
championship in &c rounds.
Through all the training Tor his
many fights, Nine. vanhilbroucq,

ways in Georges younger days, saw
that her handsome son" was not
bothered by the young girls.
IL do not blame the girls" she
says, Georges is so handsome,
clever and famous. But scare them
off,"
Shortly after coping the welter
crown Georges licked two more
English battlers, Jack Goldswain
In 4 rounds, and Arthur Evernden,
in 10 rounds, and was then match
ed with Dixie Kid, and American
negro fighter.
When the battle was staged on
August 20. 1911, Jack had not had
"a fight in over a month. He was
not in tiptop condition and the Kid
handed him a beating in rounds.
Georges thea made his first trip
to London. He started English
fight fans by trimming Sid Burns
in 10 rounds, and following closely
with a win over Young Joseph, in
10 rounds.
Two more battles, a knockout
over Theodore Gray in nine rounds
and a win over Harry Lewis in 20
rounds wound up the year.
The year 1919 started off with
Knockouts over Battling Lacroix
and Jim Sullivan. Georges had, in
the meantime taken on weight that
put him in The middle class.
This lead to a go with George
Gunther. Australian champ, who
had cleaned up all other opponents
in this division.
It was a tough battle, for 20
rounds. and Georges drew the de-
cision. The glory heaped on him
by this performance was greatly
added to when he licked Hubert
Roc. ex-heavyweight champ OF
France, in six rounds.
America then presented for
midable opponent for Georges in

wares many times in France and

Johnny had earned quite n reputa-

some mighty hard slams, but manag-

IL times in the early rounds. The az
fair was called a draw"
Later Dempsey won from Sunden-
berg in 10 rounds at Tonopah.
He then beat It for Salt Lake and
worked on a steam shovel crew.
Months later, when the fight game
opened up in Salt Lake, he returned
home and got a match withrTwo-
Round Gillian. Jack finished him in
one round.

A negro boxer, the Boston Bear
Cat, saw the match and declared he
could trim Jack, A go was arranged
for Ogden, Utah. Jack slipped over a
wicked right In the first frame and
the Bear Cat was buried in slumber-
land. Dempsey drew $50 for this k. o.
His smashes were picking up in value
right along.
His next Job was a sparring part
ner to Eddie Johnson, of Pueblo,
Colo. When Johnson battled at Ely,
New. Jack got on a prelim bout with
another Johnson. II was a one-round
whirlwind in which Jack again de-
livered knockout. He then battled
Jock Koehn at Provo, Utah, taking
four frames to put him to sleep.
II was for the next battle that
Dempsey did his first real training;
a battle that gave him his largest
purse up to that time.
