By w. J. Macbeth

Georges Carpenter, heavyweight
champion of Europe, light heavyweight
champion of the world and idol of
France, took the long gamble and lost.
He staked all on the cnance Of winning
the title of the heavyweight division
from Jack Dempsey in the Richard
stadium at Boyle's Thirty Acres, Jcr-
sey City, yesterday afternoon He gave
all he had for his cause, as knights
did in the days of chivalry, but though
his heart was big and his spirit I'M
daunted, his body proved too frail for
the purpose Of the spirit.
Carpenter was not disgraced. He
fought a losing battle, but looked great
IN defeat. He was a marvel of speed
and sharpshooter with sting to the
punches he delivered with either hand.
When he elected TO fight at long range
he had Dempsey completely mystified
and missing swings by several feet
| Carpenter seemed able to walk around
miss as far as he pleased.
The Frenchman fell q victim of am
bition and overestimation of his own
ability to assimilate the crushing blows
of his adversary. 1t is possible that
he--or whoever else may have mapped
out the policy of battle-underrat ted
Dempsey's hitting power. Carpenter
was beaten down by brute force. 1t
was a case of the light rapier meeting
time.
Victim of Body Blows
There is little doubt that Georges
! Carpenter might have stayed the
twelve rounds had he elected to fight
strictly on the defensive. Many wise
critics are of the opinion that he made
the mistake of his life in trying to
fight Dempsey toe to toe. For it was
the rushing body blows of the champion
that Slapped the strength Of the chal-
lenger and sapped it so quickly that
the Frenchman was beaten before he
had time to formulate new and more
battling line of procedure.
But staying twelve rounds would
have gotten the gallant Georges moth
ing but additional glory. His only hone
out one of the best champions the prize
ring has known. 1t may have been pre-
sumptuous, but the spirit was admir-
able
Old time ring experts who had bet on
Georges to stay the limit gave up hope
almost as soon as the engagement be-
gan when they saw the challenger
meant to make it stand up, knock
down affair. For the Frenchlnan tore
into his opponent and never gave an
inch when they came to close grips,
even though he always got much the
worst of the bedy against body ex-
changes. The hero of France could be
seen to wilt under Dempsey's crushing,
short arm bolts to the body of the
doughty challenger, AS early as the
end of the third round it was seen that
Georges was done.
The crowd was fair. Perhaps Demp-
sey did not get as great an ovation IS
a fighter of his merit deserved.
Magnificent Confidence
Perhaps never before did two more
confident battlers decide the question
of supremacy. The Frenchman>was the |
personitcation Of easy grace, non
ohalance and confidence. He was the |
first to enter the ring, and while he |
awaited the arrival of Dempsey he
smiled graciously at his friends in the

We happened to see both the cham
pion and the challenger come into the
arena Just before they went into their
quarters.
Carpenter came down the alleyway
between two policemen, and followed by
spelled unconscious distinction. He was
close shaven, unusually pale, and had
strange, strained and crooked smile.
This perfection of grooming, this pro-
nounced pallor, this strange smile, and
ithe two policemen, made him look like
the hero of different sort of a story.
in fact, he looked exactly like clever,
elusive, but guilty young gentleman
who knew at last that the jig was up
and was going along to headquarters to
face the music.
A few minutes later Dempsey came.
If any policemen were along they were
too small and insignificant to be no.
ticed. And the crowd that followed
was admiring and loudly buoyant. The
champion led and lowered. He wore
a red sweater cap was on the back
of his head. A heavy stubble of beard
gave tramplike and frightening look
to his threatening and heavy face. But
he was smiling. And his step was
swinging and carefree.

why 60 in to see it," she said. OTIS all
over"
1t was tragic thing to see.
Once again gallantry and beauty and
courage and skill going down under
just too strong blows.
Carpenter fought brilliantly and
bravely.
Dempsey, surely and powerfully.
In the second round Carpenters
skill was thrilling; the swift blows,
the sudden shifts Of the body-syrn-
metry, poise, coordination. He fought
this round with genius.
"But genius in this world" once said
Edgar Allan Poe, must inevitably
succumb."
In vain the beautifully placed, the
perfectly timed blows. In vain the

that he feels i'll at ease in any other ex-
preston,
Carpenter First to Land
With the sound of the gong Carpen-
tier was the first to lead. He used his
left and landed lightly. In the first
clinch he was punished severely and
came out with a bloody nose. But
throughout that round and the next
one he had much the best of it ut long
range, though not at infighting. He
landed often and he found no trouble
in making Dempsey miss on his returns.
But constantly Dempsey kept edging
in and Carpenter, instead of giving
ground, edged with him. Worse than
that, as often as not, he rushed in and
once he was within range Of Dempsey's
short hooks he was rocked back and
forth. Carpenter fought an ill-con-
sidered fight.
1t was the fairest big crowd we have
ever seen. There were cheers for
everybody, including the preliminary
fighters, and boos for no one. Sand
witches sold for twenty-five cents and
mineral water for fifty, but otherwise
all the arrangements were perfect.
Don Marquis poured $3.50 worth of
charged water and dollars worth of
beer upon his head during the prelim-
lnarles. Then it began to rain free
water, but none of the vendors would
make a refund. Mr.. Marquis pretended
to believe that the same two men re-
NAMED in the ring throughout the
whole length of the preliminares. He
admitted that some were knocked down
and dragged out, but he maintained
that they merely went under the ring
and came back again.

all afternoon. The first two bouts
were harmless, but just as the third
was beginning the Rev John Roach
Straton came in and took a ringside
seat Immediately the two preliminary
boys began to knock each other down
and things became brutal Perhans
the boxers had heard that Mr.. Straton
mad come to get material for his SER
mon next Sunday on the evils of prize
fighting. - liz
1t was comfort to us to find Mr..
= so close at hand. Often we
nave been terrified at his expressed
belief in divine vengeance falling nnon
the ACTIVITIES of assembled crowds of
whose activities Mr.. Straton djsan-
proved. We felt cheered at the thougbt
that there was hardly room for
tnunderbolt to come between us and
Mr.. Straton.
We We're worried for moment bv a
mysterious voice which kept shouting
Sit down." but it turned out to be
nothing more than some sort of phono-
graphic amplifier close to the ring.
Then we felt indignant. We were not
disposed to take any back talk from,
machine. The stadium is just as big
as everybody said it was and it looked
like soup bowl full of croutons. Some
body suggested cretins, but it was a
crowd, though we'll behaved.
Coming away we had only one con-
ISOLATION. Bernard Shaw has been wrong
for once. A day or two before the
fight he stated that Carpenter could
not lose and ought to be so to
favorite. We wish he had won and
yet there was some little satisfaction
in the knowledge that Mr.. Shaw had
ost his half dollar
Annihiiation OF Will
There was, however, one consolation
greater than that. It was impossible to
get away from the fact that we had all
seen tragedy, the most poiguan. sort
