GEORGES CUTS ALOOSE M PRIVATE WORKOUT
Stolen View of Session Re- veals Challenger Hard at
 Work-HiS Smile Gone

Manhassett. N. Y, June 25.-Takins his cue from the merciless sun. Georges Carpenter waded into two of his sparring partners and lam pasted them for five rounds this aft ernoon. The perspiration rolled off the challenger in streams. His smile was absent and he actually appeared to be working seriously. The workout was private and was witnessed be- sides Trainer Wilson, Manager Des- camps and several members of his party by one or two who sneaked Indian fashion through the weeds and lay quietly under the barn.
 Big Paul Journee, his broken nose and black eye hidden behind a huge mask, came out first. His identity was 8 puzzle until he started shadow boxing and This lazy style gave him away. He worked alone for 10 min utes while Georges punched the bag and jumped the rope inside the gym nasium.
 Georges Hard at Work
 Georges vaulted into the ring and was immediately at work. The mask appeared to give Journee cour- age, as he waded into the challenger, swinging both arms. Georges con- tented himself with punching to the body. He hit Journee many times, but there was noticeable checking of his blows. They were heavy enough, however, to start Journee pulling, and he rested while Chris Arnold, the Buffalo light heavy weight, worked.
 Mike Gibbons in his palmiest days was never more of phantom than Georges was with Chris. Instructed by Manager Descamps to go fast and punch hard, Arnold did his best. He has speed and can punch, but Car pentier's head bobbed so fast and his shift was so quick that the Buffalo lad was unable to connect. The best he could do was to find Carpen- tiers ear with his left, but this blow slid off and did not appear to hurt.
 May Be Revelation
 When it was over and Descamps was removing Georges gloves, he patted him on the back and told him he was the next worlds champion.
 This workout may have revealed the secret of what Georges will do when he meets Dempsey Saturday. A defensive game, and an attempt to keep away from Dempsey's wallops until he sees a chance to connect with his right-this, in nutshell, may be the challenger's battle plan.
 Carpenter was on the road thls morning and after he returned there was some more of the mysterious stuff behind the barn. Several put gilists, of identities unannounced. were back there with Georges, but whether they spared or not IS matter of conjecture. Descamps, who is a jigsaw puzzle all by himself,
 lot cyo Q enigmatically and said "Ah, my fren | am what you call ze wise guy.

straight jolts on the chin. If bulk alone is the criterion, then Jack Dempsey is the better equipped with these cervical shock absorbers and therefore the less likely to suffer seriously from jaw blows. But it is a question whether bulky bands are better than more slender elastics as protection of this sort. On the whole I think Carpenters general muscle equipment is superior to Demnsey's s his muscles, seem to be more mobile and responsive It may be, however. that the American champion can stand jaw jolts better than the Euro pean.
 so-called blow to the wind one that knocks the breath out of an opponent, amounts, practically, to a shock to the solar pleXus or to the cardiac (heart) pleXus. l have all ready said that these autonomic or sympathetic substations are intimate ly and freely connected by nerve flores, so that impressions are readily conveyed from one to the other sta- tion, and the effects of a shock at one point are therefore widespread. Thus a blow to the wind" if only it be sharp or severe enough, need only reach the body at any point over the ribs to subdue an opponent. There is little muscle protection against such blows. The ribs are more or less ex- posed. irrespective of a mans physi- cal condition or muscular equip ment. A boxer must defend himself with his arms and hands against body blows.
 Kidney punches or jabs, delivered with short arm blows upon the lower ribs at the back, in clinches, may seem futile, but nevertheless they probably contribute great deal to many a defeat ascribed to subsequent

JACK WORKS BEFORE
 EUROPEAN WRITERS
Champion Goes Through Ten Rounds of Hard Work.
 Visitors Are Pleased

Atlantic City. June 25.-After a "A hour lay-off to celebrate his twenty-sixth birthday, Jack Dempsey swung back into his training grind today working for 45 minutes under a broiling sun and watched by 8 group of foreign newspaper cor respondents About 1500. persons Hooked into the open air arena to see the champion in action.
 Dempsey perspired through ten rounds of actual work, although he only boxed six rounds. He opened up with a three minute round of pulling the weights and then follow ed a round of shadow boxing. Ed die O'Hare. the New York middle weight, stepped the first two rounds with Dempsey, but it was evident that the champion was pulling his punches.
 Pulled Punches.
 The champion frequently feinted the fast moving O'Hare into openings but did not follow up his advantages by punching with the full force of HIS blOWS GACtpI IWO or three tim eS. In the second round, he drove a couple of heavy rights into O'Hare's body and crossed him twice with a "one-two" punch that shook the New York 15S pounder to his heels. He also drove O'Hare into a corner just as the bell rang for the close of the second and crossed him with a vicious right to the head.
 Larry Williams, who faced Demp- sey for the third and~fourth rounds. boxed cautiously, almost too cautious ly to make the champion extend him self. Williams was knocked out by the champion early in the week and apparently tried to keep out of dan ger this afternoon. Dempsey cut loose some of his body smashes, but al sucn times Williams was not dis tressed
 Wrestles q Round.
 The title holder boxed the last two rounds with Jack Renault. After cuff fling the big Canadian heavyweieht around the ring Dempsey wrestled for round with Bull Montana. He concluded with some calisthencs Alter the work out Dempsey had a healthy flush to his skin and it was evident that his wind was good.
 Before the workout, Dempsey chat ted In his home for half hour with the foreign experts and boxing en- thusiasts. In the party were Victor Breyer, editor of Echo des Sportes of Paris; Gasson Bentac of Paris, Mai.

 The foreign Journalists were im- pressed with Dempsey's size and strength. After watching him work, they agreed that he stripped wonder fully and was well trained, but they were unable to pass judgment on his boxing ability, as they realized Demp- sey did not work at his best this af- ternoon.

 New York, June 25.-Jack Demp- sey, heavyweight champion of the world. will defeat Georges Carpen- tier, French challenger for the title, when the two meet in the ring at Jersey City next Saturday.
 The writer believes that things might happen which would make this prediction. look like a joke. The Frenchman has right which. when perfectly timed, will flatten Dempsey or any man hit with it It is deadly. It starts without warning from mo- where just as an opponent lets drive with a left hook, and it travels so fast that it is seldom blocked. By the same token 1t beats the oppo- nents left hook to the mark. Such wallop might bring disaster to Dempsey, who as all know, is very fond of delivering left hooks.
 May Be Slower
 Again. there is chance that the heavy muscle development which has come to Dempsey's shoulders in the past year or so may have had the effect of slowing him up. In thai case, the challenger might be able to weave in and out and finally beai Jack down. or establish a clear mar : gin of points. Finally, Georges may have left which is almost as good as his right. So far as the writer has been able to see. his left punc., is rather wide and sweeping. He beat Levinsky with it. The trouble is that when Carpenter misses witt. it he is thrown off his balance. That would be fatal against Demp- sey But even if he were known to have real left punch it would not change the writer's belief thai he will lose to the American. Of course. if every event came out as predicted, there would be nothing to sport at all The writer can ap' preciate the risk he takes in pick ing the winner,
 | But he has followed both men con l stantly since they began to train for | this battle. He has watched their every move. He has considered then ! past records. He has studied ths.r training methods with an open mind and he can see only Dempsey-for | the following reasons:

 Natural Scrapper 3. Nature turned out Dempsey a complete gladiator Carpenter is of the built-up type of athlete, in d measure, a gymnasium product. f. Dempsey has the punching power in either hand to hurt Carpentier wherever his gloves land. 5. Dempsey has been charged wi,n occasional loose living. The writer has it from 8 man who was in the French army and knew Carpenter. that the Frenchman in 1916 and 1917 at least lived the sort of life which was typical of French ayiators when not at the front Carpenter has not fought a gruelng battle in six years, and that is long while. He is nearly three years older than Dempsey.
 s. Carpentier admittedly is the more intelligent type of man, but Dempsey natural fighter, will wage battle be instinct, not by set plan, and no thinker, no matter how clever, can out-think rival who fights by instinct.
 [. Dempsey is built better to stand punishment. And he has been up against sparring partners far SUI perior to those who have worked with Georges.

"THE FAITH HEALER"

Healing by faith, or a demonstra-
ton of the presence of divine power
n human affairs is the basic theme
of George Melford's latest Para
mount picture, '"The Faith Healer"
which will be shown at the Alcazar
for the last time today.
The play upon which the picture is
founded was written by William
Vaughn Moody, whose play, "The
Great Divide" scored success some
years ago. The stage production of
"The Faith Healer" also proved high
ly successful.
The story concerns a young shep-
herd who feels the divine call to go
forth and heal the sick and suffer
in. When he is at the height of his
work, love enters his life, and with
the BIRTH of his passion he feels his
divine power waning. He is on the
point of renouncing. ibis mission, when
it dawns upon him that love is a gift
of God, and that he can entertain q
pure love for the girl and at the same
time go on with his work With this
comes a return of his healing power
and a renewed conservation to his
work, aided by the girl, VINO also de-
votes her life to his mission.

WHY YEAST

Thousands Stay Thin on Ordinary
Foods, Because) They Lack
Vitamines - Now ObtainabIe
in Tablet Form.

No matter how heartily we eat, if
-scertain all-important elements. call
ed vitamines,, are lacking in our diet,
we will be under-nourished. Only in
the last few years have these ele-
ments been known, and now scientists
recognize that nearly all cases of
anemia, neurasthenia symptoms and
rundown condition are simply due
to a lack of vitamines in the body.
Nearly all modern foods contain very
few vitamines. And yet we must
have a consistent supply of these
miraculous little organisms which
alone are SO essential to health and
vitality. And now it has been dis
covered that small quantity Of ordi-
nary, yeast, taken regularly, will
supply all the vitamines needed for
glowing health. Added to the diet,
yeast makes old people younger, re-
stores energy and normal weight to
the thin and rundown, and has a
wonderfully beneficial effect on
growi ng children. Yeast also clears
up bad, pimply compilations and
banishes boils.
The Miracle of Yeast" is still
new thing to most people. but yeast's
amazing value as health builder has
been proven beyond, doubt by num-
Nerless experiments in great medical
institutions. The real problem Of
scientists has! been to obtain Just
the correct form of yeast. This is
known to be brewers yeast. The
common yeast cake is ineffective be-
cause it is only about 200 yeast and
the rest starch and water.
At last the perfect combination,
highest in vitamine-strength, has
been worked out by famous chem
lists. 1t is a concentrated vitamine
tablet prepared from brewers yeast
and certain reliable tonics such as
iron, which increase the effect of
yeast itself. These tablets are call
IRONIZED YEAST and are sold
by nearly all druggists. IRON
lied YEAST tablets are the approx
ed vitamine tonic treatment, put up
in convenient size to carry in the
pocket. They are pleasant to take
and do not nauseate IRONIZED
YEAST tablets cost but trifle more
to the dose than common yeast and
are much more effective. Each
