and too deficient on defense to stand
up long against a crushing hitter of
the Dempsey type.
Gibbons did much better against
the champion. At the end of the
fifteenth round at Shelby Gibbons
was still on his feet. More than that
he had not been knocked down q
single time. Few expected Gibbons
would last more than six rounds.
Carpenter can not hurt him with
his left and if Gibbons displays ordi-
nary caution he will not get hit with
a right hand punch.
Carpenter is not the man he was
three years ago. Dempsey handed
him q body beating from which nc
will never fully recover.
Carpenter is unquestionably on
the downgrade. American fans
however, will turn out to see him in
action again because he is colorful,
daring and aggressive.

PRICES HOLD WELL
IN STEEL MARKET
Weekly Metal Review Shows
Lead Especially Active.
Zinc Also Firmer.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, July 2S.-The steel
market continues to display a good
deal of stability and price levels are
but little altered. In some quarters
there is a fair demand, especially for
the lighter steel products, but as a
rule new bookings are not keeping
pace with production. Small lot
orders for quick shipment are quite
numerous and there are few evil
dences of accumulation of stocks.
Pig iron is a tritie steadier The de-
mand is still slow. but production has
been materially reduced and there Is
less pressure to SELL
Copper was quiet in the domestic
trade, with prices generally un-
changed from last week, but fair
export trade. estimated at 100000
pounds, within ten days. United
States exports during June were the
largest in over year, with the eX-
|ception of last January.
Tin became easier owing to q slow
consuming demand and a prospective
liberal increase in the visible supply.
Lead was strong, with operators
the principal buyers. Prompt sup
plies are light and a better consum-
ing demand Is anticipated
A f1rmer tone developed in zinc also,
with some inquiry for export. An
absence of selling pressure. however,
was the chief cause of strength.
Antimony was steady, with q good
demand, although mostly of q specu-
lative sort, for future shipment.
