CARP IS FINISHED
As lST RATER, SAY
FRENCH FIGHT FANS
Neck Trouble Aftermath
Of Illness Incurred
Last November.
By HENRY WALES.

PARIS, March IO.-Georges Car
pcntier is finished as a first class
heavyweight boxer in the belief OF
his followers following the news OF
an operation on the French pugi-
lists Emphatic glands on the left
side OF his neck.
Georges is like a race horse
that trains too fine. for he is deli
cate and notstrong all around phys
'cslly despite his powerful punch
ing and boxing ability" said a
close friend. The neck trouble is
not a result of Jack Dempseys
punches. but rather is an after
math Of an Illness incurred last
November when he was training
for the Cook fight scheduled for
December.
Shooting at his country place
and accompanied by his dogs.

ticed that an Irish terrier. the Gift
of Sir Philip Sassoon, was missing.
Retracing his steps he found the
terrier dead in the snow. shot by a
jealous farmer. Flying into a most
violent temper, Georges few
hours later broke out with a vio-
lent rash and suffered from chills
and fever which necessitated a
postponemcnt Of the Cook fight -un-
til January. The gland trouble In
the neck Is result of this"
Georges intimates assert that the
boxer has been worried over finan!
cial troubles during the last few
days since the French income tax
collectors have demanded more
than 100000 of his 1921 receipts
Despite his protest that he paid the
United States $4,000 after the
Dempsey fight. the authorities here
are insisting on collecting another
$4,000 at the present rate of eX-
change.
Carpenter intended to box Jefl
Smith at Paris on April 1 or s be-

ON OF GOOSE GOSLN CAUSES SENSATION IN TAMPA CAMP
PROMISING FLY CHASER OUT q
/ UNTI GRIFF REMOVES BAN
@pld Fox" Says Rockies Must Realize Train
i ing Trip is Not Joy Ride.

rest of the young ball players must
realize that this Is a training trip
we Are on not Joy ride or q win
ter's vacation"
Must Pay own Expenses.
After o'clock toight Goslin, IL
he stays in Tampa. must pay his
own expenses until Griff reients
long enough to offer him another
contract. which may or may not be
before the team leaves for the
North the first day of April. He
was. out watching the workout this
morning. He Is absolutely ION his
own" according to Grif and the
American League rules. in fact. he
can go to his home in New York
State II he wishes. However, he
has not yet decided what to do as
there has been no intimation of
how long he Is to grace the sus-
pended list.
Whether or not Goslin's suspen-
sion will affect the chances of the
club is problematical. When noti-
fied this morning to turn in his
uniform he was still a long way
from having cinched a regular Job
In the outfield. Now that he Is
forced to lay on practice until he
II reinstated, Eddie Goebel will be
given all the chance In the world
to make good. At any rate. Goebsl
will have an opportunity of getting
even with Goose" as far as train
ing is concerned. Goose" had ten
days start on the Seattle gardener,
but his suspension annuls this ad-
vantage and the two will start on
even terms when Goslin Is eventu-
ally reinstated.
Goebel. however, will have some
advantage in that he appears to
be one of the most faithful train
ers on the squad, and both Grifr
and Milan have absolute confidence
in him. while both have lost con-
hdence in the former Sally Lacquer.
May Appeal for Goslin.
Some of the veterans of the club
intend to see Grifr and Milan to-
night in a attempt to get the sus-
pension lifted Immediately. From
what the old heads saw of Goslin
while he was with the club last
been in camp this spring they be,
lieve that his breaking of rules was
not entirely his fault and that II
Jney can get Inc suspension DIIeo
Goose" will show his appreciation
by watching his step hereafter.
Walter Johnson worked on the
mound for about ten minutes this
morning, thus providing the only
high light in an otherwise more or
less dull workout. Barney spent
about ten minutes feeding the bat
tiers straight balls In all he threw
thirty-seven balls He ana George
Mogridge are the only two regu-
lars who have pitched to the bat
tiers as yet, as both Zachary and
Erickson are taking their time and
probably won't start this work I'M
til next week.
There isn't a sore arm In camp
yet and Milan and the "Liniment
King are congratulating them
stlves and at the same time hoping
that their luck will last. Usually
there are a half dozen ailing wings
at this time of year. Martin lays
the good luck to the time Grifnth
gave him to get the youngsters in
shape by sending them here almost
ten days earlier than has ever been
the case before.
