CARPENTER WINS BY KNOCKOUT M
 ABOUT 20 SECONDS
Joe Beckett Hits Mat Early In The First Round Of
 Boxing Bout

LONDON, Oct. 1.-(By Associated Press. )-It took Georges Carpenter, the French fighter, just about 20 seconds tonight to put the quietus on the championship aspirations of Joe Beckett, who holds the heavy weight title in Great Britain. Car pentier used both lefts and rights lin a brief series of exchanges, and Beckett remained on the floor for the final count.
 Beckett led with light left to his opponents jaw, but there was no power in the blow, and Carpenter shot over a left, followed by right to Beckett's jaw with terrible force, and Beckett went down for a count of five.
 The Englishman got to his feet rather groggy, and the Frenchman dashed in and with right and left beat Beckett down again near the ropes, falling on top of him, On rising, Carpenter stood back. Beck ett gripped the bottom rope in an ef- fort to pull himself to his feet, but he was so badly spent that apparent ly he had lost all sense of what was going on, and before the count had been completed his seconds threw Yin the towel and thus ended one of the quick est and most sensational or heavyweight contests.
 After the fight Carpenter said:
 T am off to America next month and if I beat Tom Gibbons, l expect to meet 'empsey again. hope SC, frd

St. Bernard Loses

ST. BERNARD, Oct. 1-The Blountsville Agricultural school de- feated the St. Bernard football team here Saturday, to 0, in one of the prettiest defensive games ever seen on the local gridiron. Fightlns against overwhelming odds in weight and strength, the thin blue line" Of the Saints" went down in defeat. The odds in weight were overwhelm- ing; at the central position alone, it was 213 pounds to 142. A similar disproportion existed in other parts of the lineup.
 In spite of this handicap, the Saints completely outplayed their heavier opponents during the first three quarters of the game. The ball was almost continually in the terri tory of the Aggies during these three periods, and 1t was the breaks of the game, when a bad pass causing q tumble, prevented the little Saints" from scoring touchdown.
