BY SPARROW McGANN. N EW YORK, May 29.—Chances of Harry Greb against Georges Car- pentier are the chief topic of conversation, argument and asser- tion among pugilistic fans now. There are all sorts of opinions about this bout, but no one has yet been found who won't admit that a battle between the two would make the star battle of the decade. Both men employ a similar style of fighting—that is, constant energy, with the air full of gloves. But whereas Carpentier does not match Greb in the" matter of bounding energy and unceasing action, he is conceded to have a righthand wallop of deadly efficiency such as the Pittsburgh wild c‘lt does not possess. Could Cargemier lay this smashing, disintegrating right upon Greb's chin and thus me say yes, others say no. One of the keenest judges of fight- ing in_this country is Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, a great fighter him- self at one time, and now engaged in the valuable pccupation of teaching New York business men how to be healthful and efficient through exer- cise. Jack, who has watched Greb care- fully, says that he will beat Carpen- tier. He says that Harry will fill the Frenchman as full of gloves as he has the rest and that Carpentier will never get the opportunity to Whip over his right with knockout orce. Greb's Style Is Studied. “If he should,” says O'Brien, “Greb probably would be knocked out, al- though he is a very hard boy to hurt. But I don't see how Carpentier could ever bring his right in the way Greb works. His method is all his own. Everything he does, wild a: it looks, has been studied out, and such blows as that dipping right of his have been invented by him for his own special brand\of attack. “It would be a great fight, greater than any that could be arranged and would go, I think, to a decision. Don’t think Greb can’t hit. He can. If he sets himself he can wallop as hard as the best of them. But he prefers to keep on t and have his bl sting and cut rather than crush. O'Brien added that Greb can hit five blows with his Jeft in one second, and 28 to that Gene Tunney probably will give confirmatory testimony. Greb Fearless Serapper. That Greb is fearless is shown not only by his constant boring in to the attack, but his willingness to stand toe to toe with the big fellows and exchange wallo] One thing, how- ever, he would have to watch against Carpentier would be throwing him- self off balance, as he occasionally does when leaping into .the attack. It is rational to belleve that Carpen- tier hardly would be. so forbearing Tuesday night ASE BALL teams of the Shrine and Grouo, drill teams of these orders and the Eastern Star, bands and drum corps, vaudeville make merry tomorrow at American field day held for the benefit of the Eastern Star Home.
