All Paris ShrOuded i'm Gloom
AT News of Its Hero's Defeat

PARIS, July (By The Associated
Press) s).-Consternat fell upon Paris
tonight when the defeat Of Georges
Carpenter at the hands Of Jack Demp-
sey in their bout for the worlds cham
pionship in Jersey City to-day was sig
nailed with white lights by airplanes,
on newspaper. screens and by theater
announcements.
The crowds, absolutely dumfounded,
refused to believe the first bulletin
telling of Carpenter being knocked
out. The Associated Press flash was
the first to reach Paris. 1t was re-
ceived at S:32 o'clock this evening.
Nine. Carpenter listened to the
progress of the fight in the editorial
rooms of the Petit Parisien. Her op-
timism did not fail until the fourth
round. When the word came that her
husband had taken the count she
turned away and said: Georges is de-
feated; | shall cancel my trip to the

Hundreds of thousands were stand
ing before bulletin boards on the
Boulevard. "It can't be true said
many of them when the Knockout was
announced, but the succeeding flashes
from Jersey City soon convinced the
Parisians of the downfall of their hero.
Paris became saddened and depressed; !;

men, women and children stood in
silence while they read how Carpe entier
was completely outclassed and out
fought.
Six big army airplanes speedily ap-
peared over the Place de la Concordo
and the boulevards, displaying large
white lights as signal of defeat.
President Millerand and his family
at Elysee Palace received series of
bulletins, sent by the government wire
less station at the Eitfel Tower. Pre-
mier BRAND and the other ministers
heard the news at their Offices.
The chief gathering place of Ameri-
cans was the Place de la Concorde,
where the returns were received blow
by blow and given to the crowd in Eng
lish and French on a huge screen.
Dempsey's victory was received with
wild cheering by the Americans, who
threw their hats in the air, while the
French spectators gazed upon the Amer
leans in silence,
The Paris newspapers followed Amer
lean methods in issuing series of ex
tras with the result of the fight and de-
tails.
Carpenters wife, when seen later,
said that the shock TO her was very Sc
we're, and her greatest grief was that
she was not with Georges. Her one de-
sire was that her husband return TO her
as soon as possible. She added proudly,
however: .'No matter what the result,
he fought like a Frenchman and "a
sportsman"

THE ARENA, Jersey City, July q
Ninety thousand persons, many Of

pine bowl at Boyle's Thirty Acres tbs
afternoon when Jack Dempsey deliv-
cred the crushing right hook to Car
pentier's classic jaw that sent the gal
liant Frenchman down to defeat. |:
was the greatest crowd that ever wit
messed a sporting event in America.
The huge throng was orderly, good
natured and remarkably undemonstra-
tive. Only three times during the
afternoon were there really spontane-
Gus bursts of enthusiasm; once when
Governor Edwards of New Jersey en-
tered the arena, once when the chal-
lenger rocked Dempsey to his heels
with hard lefts and rights to the jaw
in the second round, and finally when
hooks that brought the battle of the
century to an abrupt close.
During the preliminaries the crowd
was phlegmatic and disinterested tc
the point of being bored 1t seemed
to view the appetizers to the main
course as necessary annoyances.
Ovations Seem Formal
Both Carpenter and Dempsey re-
ceived ovations when they entered the
ring, but they were rather formal and
not what had been expected. Of the
two men the champion seemed to draw
the most applause during the march
down the long sloping aisles to the
roped battle ground.
Carpenter, his blond hair brushed
back and looking like anything but a
professional prizeighter, drew large
part of his applause from the several
thousand women present, and it was
the women who took his defeat the
hardest. One fashionably dressed
woman on the western side of the
arena wept copiously throughout the
four rounds of the fight, and every
time Dempsey landed telling blow
on Georges she WINGED as though she
hesself had been struck. When the
champion shot over the devastating
hook that sent the Frenchman down
for the fatal count she uttered a
sl-.othered scream and collapsed. Two
firemen escorted her from the arena.
The hosts of fight fans that swept
irto Jersey City were handled with
skill and precision. There was no con-
fusion, no congestion that was not abb

R1NGS1DE, Jersey City, July g
Human flesh and bone are still softer
than iron. At 3:18 Georges Carpenter
stood in the center of the ring receiv-
ing one of the greatest ovations ever
given fighter. At 1927 the Lily of
France lay stretched out upon the resin.
now only one of the Broken Blossoms
of pugilism.
With his right thumb broken in two
places and his right wrist sprained and
swollen from contact with Dempsey's
cast-iron jaw, his dream of conquest
had come to this-a huddled, helpless
object at the foot of the throne still
guarded by mandarin of the game.
The slashing right-handed drive to
Dempsey's jaw in the second round had
ended the fight, when the jawbone, like
granite wall, had remained intact,
with the challenger's wrecked hand and
wrist out of action for the fight. His
main gun had been spiked, and the end
now was merely matter of the cham
pon's will.
For three rounds and one minute
and sixteen seconds of the fourth the
game and skillful Frenchman stood uu
before the crushing power of Demp-
seys blows. But with his face cut to
crimson ribbons and his Trailer body
almost broken in two by the hardest
hitting heavyweight the world has ever
known, he finally buckled up and
dropped before mighty left and right
hooked in lightning succession to each
side of his jaw.
At the count of nine, with fine cour-
age and the old instinct, he struggled
t> his feet, but he had hardly lifted
his weary, battered head above the
level of Dempsey's waist before ter
rifle right hook over the heart sent
him into the vast poppy field of un-
consciousness, beaten now beyond all
recall.
The knockdown and knockout blows
were only the finishing effects. 1t was
the body-breaking infghting of the
champion that first got in its deadly
work, for after each short, savage Jolt
in the opening round you could see the
Frenchman's light body quiver and give
way as if he were racked with the pain
of an unbearable punishment

Carpenter went down with his head
up and his fists flying. He bled and
fought to the end, which came in the
fourth round, when Dempsey hit him
first with right hook to the jaw and
then a left hook above the heart. Both
blows were short.
Once in the second round the French
man was within punch of the cham
ponship. His long, straight right hit
Dempsey flush and fair upon the chin
The bigger man went back upon his
heels. His hands dropped to his side
He was target. Carpenter put all his
strength into q right uppercut and
missed. Dempsey was swaying just a
little, and Carpenter was too eager to
hit moving target.
During all the rest of the fight
Dempsey was on top. He kept close
From this vantage his superior weight
and strength told enormously. Size
seemed the deciding factor in the bat
tie.
We know that additionally the Jacks
and the Davids bring down their
giants, but in those days there was no

clnches. In actual figures Jack Demp-
sey had an advantage Of only sixteen
pounds and an inch and half in
height 1t looked like much more.
Every time the men came together it
was evident that Dempsey could move
the challenger about as he pleased. He
punished him fearfully whenever they
came to grips. Carpenters very gal
lantry was a handicap. He would not
stay away and make a running fight
The first lead was his and again and
again he hurled himself at the cham
pion.
Even in the third and fourth rounds,
when it was evident that Carpenters
strength was being hammered away, he
kept throwing punches.
Before the fight our sympathies were
for Dempsey. We thought that we
wanted to see form vindicated in this
world, in which our very lives depend
upon the regularity of the universe.
This feeling did not endure for a
second after Carpenter came into the
ring. We wanted to see him land and
win and we would nave counted the
world we'll lost if he had. Dempsey
had the better blows, but all the good
gestures we're Carpentier's
They were, of course, the very NOV
ing gestures of tragedy. Almost from

the beginning one could sense that the
man from France was not going to win
And he was smiling. He began to bleed
at the nose in the first round, and later
a cut was opened above his right eye
He suffered visibly from the body
punches, but he never dropped. Ha
kept coming in. Even when he fell for
the last time he fell forward.
1t was impossible for us to root for
Dempsey. He was too methodical and
too efficient. 1t would have been like
giving three long cheers for the guilo-
tine as Sydney Carton went up to meet
it where it waited. Romance is silly
stuff, but that doesn't prevent it from
getting you.
Don Marquis sat next to us pouring
White Rock on his head and then Rup-
pert's beer because the heat was after
him. AS soon as Carpenter began to
fight he forgot his cold congresses and
stood up, spilling beer and water in all
directions. He kept shouting "Carpen-
tier Carpentier Carpentier!" and re-
upon our head. Finally his voice began
to give out and he dropped back among
the broken bottles. "Now you do it,"
he said, and we did.
Dempsey fought throughout fairly
and squarely. He even came up to
scratch with pretty gesture of his
own, for he was the first man to pick
the Frenchman up when he fell And
when Carpenter had been carried to
his corner Dempsey came to the ropes
and said, "He's good tough boy"
Seemingly he. too, had been influ-
enced by all the preliminary tosh
Somebody or other in one of the train
ing camp stories called him "the orchid
man" and he seemed intent on prov
ing that he could keep close and trade
punches. The rate of exchange was
all against the Frenchman.
1t was not until the third round that
it became evident beyond a doubt that
Carpenter was beaten. He was groggy
from heavy, short hooks as the bell
rang and Deschamps ran half way
across the ring to drag him into the
corner. In this round Dempsey land
ed couple of times after the bell rang,
bat it was quite evident that he had
not heard it. The fourth round was
not very far along when Carpenter
went down for the first time. He had
slipped to his knees, once earlier in
the fight, but this was a square knock
down from q terrific body blow. 1t
looked like the last punch, for Car
pentier lay on the floor twisting.

Best Man w ON,
Vanquiished and
Champion Say
''Staked My All i'm Second
Round,'' Says Georges,
Who Does Not Plead His
Broken Thumb as Excuse

Dempsey and Carpenter agreed after
the fight that the tougher, harder
hitting man won. The last blow which
Carpenter launched in his rally in the
second round struck his opponent high
on the head, Georges said, and the
impact broke the Frenchmans right
thumb at the lower joint.
Carpenter, however, did not offer
that incident nor anything else as an
excuse. He had hit Dempsey with all
he had, he said, and had failed to
jar him. Somehow or other the Amer
leans blows had got past his guard
and they were the stiffest jolts the
Frenchman ever had encountered. He
had staked his all in the second
round, Carpenter added, and when it
proved insufficient. nothing remained
but to try to fight Dempsey off.
Jack Wires Victory to Mother
AS soon as Dempsey reached his
dressing room after the fight he ad-
dressed the following telegram to his
mother:
Dear Mother: Won in the fourth
round. Received your wire. Will be
home as soon as possible. Love and
kisses. Jack"
Then he was willing to talk a bit
about the fight.

said. "He certainly was game. But
