of some boxers of standing over an OPP
ponent who has been knocked down and
hitting him before he has regained his
feet 1he rules in force all over the
world now require a boxer who has
scored a knockdown to retire to n FAR
corner Of the ring and not TO resume
the contest until the fallen man is on his
feet and the referee is satisfied he can
proceed with the battle.
Carpenter won from Gunboat Smith
on such a foul in London in the sixth
round Of their contest. Carpenter
claimed he oped during this round.
and that wfIilc one one knee taking the
count Smitli ruck him a hard blow.
The Gunne- was disqualified.
The othct side of the story Is that
Smith floored Carpenter In the sixth
round. and standing over him aimed
blow as the Frenchna1 essayed TO rise.
Smith was disqualified. The strange
part Of the Frenchman's story Is that II
he merely slipped why he should have
taken a count.
However that may be, It is TO be
hoped that the referee will insist on the
man who scores a knocSdown retiring
TO the opposite side OF the ring. so that
there will be no chance of foul.
II has been inferred In some quarters
that the wesring OF eight ounce gloves
by the contestants might make a knock
out difficult and that the bout might
thus be heightened to the limit.
II is said that there was proposal
that six ounce gloves be used. but that
the Boxing Commission demurred.
As a matter of fact, the Hurley law
prescribes eight ounce gloves. and as
nitts OF that weight are commonly
known as pillows" and are used In
gymnasium work and training It stands
10 reason that effective punching with
| them would be difficult.
| However. the Jerseymen obviate the
difficulty BY the manner OF constructing
the gloves. Fully three ounces OF the
weight are centred in the wrist OF the
| glove. while the remaining hve ounces
cover the knuckies. This glove protects
the wrist against injury and prevents
the delivery of blows in which the wrist
might land on the jaw Of an opponent.

day and finding he was down TO 13S,

The record of the Olympic games last
summer at Antwerp. which resulted in am
overwhelming victory for American ath-
letes in the majority of the branches of
sport, has been the subject of great
deal of discussion and criticism by our
European cousins.
All sorts of excuses were made for the
failure of the Britons to win a large
number of prizes, but In the main they
were not very convincing. 1t was justly
claimed that England and other Euro
pean nations were handicapped by their
tremendous losses In the war and that
they had not even reconstructed their
home games In the short eighteen months
between the armistice and the Olymplcs
of 1920.
Although they were so Handicapped,
there was and still is a general senti-
ment in certain British athletic circles
which questions the value of Olympic
competition.
The opinion of this group of sports
men Is that other countries. and Amer
lea in particular. carry the process of
specialization in training to excessive
lengths and produce not all around
champions but superchampions for
each separate event "But" say they,
what are the Olympics for-except for
the display of the prowess of the super
athlete? And how is the superathlete
to be produced except by the highly
specialized training of exceptionally
good material in one special event?'
To-day we have with US as challenger
for the worlds championship boxing
title. Georges Carpenter. one of the best
all around athletes ever produced in
Europe. Had he cared to specialize, the
French Adonis might have attained pre-
mier laurels in any of two or three
different branches OF sport.
Although he confined his competitive
efforts In track athletics to the short
period OF two years during the war.
Georges had all the earmarks of a
champion jumper and runner. Again.
after practising with the French inter-
national football team only three months

Paris, June 30
With excitement developing along the
boulevards and in the gathering places
for French sportsmen as the date OF
the big fight in Jersey City approaches.
Mime. Carpenter in her quiet home in
the Etoile Quarters is not losing her
confidence that Georges will bring home
the championship belt.
But / am neither too optimistic nor
too pessimistic," she told inquirers yes
terday Georges writes every day and
as usual shows the greatest respect for
his adversary, but he believes strongly
that he will win, although he acknowl-
edges that his rival Is the strongest
boxer he has yet had to encounter"
Then as she hugged their infant
daughter smilingly Nine. Carpenter de-
clared that Georges would not consider
that he was the victor unless Dempsey
was foored and hors de combat She
has refused to attend theatres or news
paper offices to learn the results of the
fight. giving as her reason that '1f the
result was not as satisfactory as ex-
pected / would prefer to remain In my
own home"
Nevertheless, she has been accorded
the unprecedented permission to remain
in constant telephonic communication
with the Paris wireless station and has
promised to hang out either n French
or an American flag as soon as the
result of the fight is flashed to her
even at odds of 3 to ]. a group of
Dempsey supporters in the Chatham
grill room succeeded last night in find
ing takers for only 5000 francs. This
IS the biggest bet that has been ar
ranged to the knowledge of the boxing
wiseacres. Nevertheless. everybody Is
studying the dope books and the argu-
ments are fast and furious, but 1t is
evident that the majority of the French
men are beginning to doubt whether
Carpenter speed will be more efficient
than American bulk. They won't put
up any money on their national favo,ite
and will even. whenever possible. s,yly
wager a few hundred francs on Demp-
sey's chances.
Elaborate preparations are being made
to flash the result to the Paris i'istic
fans.
