Gene had enough of punch to send
the Frenchman to the floor three
times in the course of this round. but
surely had he had the cool, deadly
killer instinct of a Dempsey, Car
pentler, never, never, never would
have been able to weather the storm
and stress of this hectic frame.
Makes Strong Comeback.
Everybody, of course, knows how
Carpenter came back in the 11th
and not only bore himself in a
courageous manner, but even carried
the battle to Tunney, who seemed
tired as result of the vigor with
which he had conducted himself in
the preceding frame.
Same with the 18th and 18th Don't
let anybody tell you that Carpenter
was fading flower in these rounds
He had sting to his left and right
ward the end of the 18th, however it
IS fair to say that Gene began to
put on pressure again and had Car
pentier hanging on some 80 seconds
before the bell rang.
But in the 14th Carpenter danced
out to the middle of the ring ap-
parently as full of fight as ever He
carried the milling to his American
opponent and seemed to have Gene
worried-not hurt. merely puzzled.
Toward the middle of the ring,
though, Tunney began to fire up and
slammed in some rights and lefts that
had nad Carpenter arr q.dn t,a hanging on: Now
had gamely survived the 10th round
and had skipped lightly out from his
corner when the bell rang for the
11th he had been the more active of
the two fighters, The writer does
Tunney. He did not. But he was the
one who was up and doing just the
same.
That is he was until Tunney plas-
tered him good toward the middle of
the round. Carpenter leaned up
against Gene and seemed on the point
of fading. But the American was
unable to put over the fare-thee- well
Georges in a desperate rush bore
Gene against the ropes. AS Gene
bent backward his knee came up in
sort of reflex action movement.
Is Booed and Cheered
There is not any doubt about this.
No one of course but Carpenter can
say whether he was as badly hurt as
he appeared to be-he lay on the
floor writhing and twisting appar-
agony.
The uproar that followed could
easily be separated into two sorts.
Boo on the one hand: cheers on the
other. Those who booed had ap-
plauded Carpenters gameness in the
tenth round, time when the French
tighter was deaf to the appeals of
the referee and of his own second,
DescampS, to give up and call it a
night. Every one cheered then. There
is nothing the fan likes better than
to sit in a comfortable seat watch
ing some one else refuse to give up
while the game fighters blood is
flowing from him and his senses are
half numbed from the lashing blows
of an aroused opponent.
Carpenter was in this plight in
the tenth and if there had been any
thing of the gutter about him he
would have stopped then. He didn't
He took all Tunney had to give and
then in succeeding frames came back
and actually forced the American to
slow down. So the law of evidence
would suggest that Carpenter really
had hurt himself against Genes knee
But at the time he was a badly
beaten man. No doubt about that
Tunney had done everything to him
but knock him out.
