FLIP PLAYS
 BIG PART IN GEORGES CAMP

tManhasset, N. Y., May 23-Fame in the world of canines have come to Flip" Belgian police dog owned by Georges Carpenter. Flip" has played an important part in training activities and has been invaluable to the boxer in willing away the hours when only setting up exercises and automobile rides made up the train ing program
 Since the close of the war and much of the time during the conflict Carpen- tier has had the dog with him con stantly. Not as a mascot, just as a friend" he declared today as the pair tramped around the large Matthews estate on which the camp of the box CT has been established.
 Aversion to photographers is one of the Frenchman's eccentricies. The cameramen advanced over the big farm in a group and found Flip" in the midst of his morning bath, being administered by Carpenter who sur prised all by posing willingly with the dog, soap, water and sponge. Car pentier begins light boxing today with the arrival of a lightweight or middle weikht to open the ring work. Paul Journee and Joe Jeanette, the heavy weights will get into action late in the week.
