I met a man named Child, a former army champion, in the Palais d'Etate at Brussels. A notable gath- ering, which included the king of Belgium, saw these army boxers 2o through their bouts, and after Child and 1 had gone ten rather fast rounds the king personally greeted and con- gratulated me, The occurrence recalled to my mind the fact that when I first beat Bom- bardier Wells at Ghent there great cry against boxing in Belgium. And here was the Belgian king con- gratulagyng me on my showing. My and, cnlisting, was tournament Carpentier Uses Dog and Gun in Training Of course the outcry against the ring sport was only temporary. Per- sons who call boxing brutal usually know very little about the subject they attempt to discuss. Therefore the discussion generally lasts only a short time. Of course there will be boxing in Belgium, now and here- after. Every country eventually will develop boxing. It is a manly sport, one which develops real men. The play-about with Child was in reality a sort of tryout for me. I w very eager to see if I had lost any skill during the war that I would not be able to regain. To my in- tense satisfaction, I found that, al- though I had grown slow in some movement, I was much stronger and able to stand heavy blows better. I knew I would regain my speed. I had signed cont ts then to meet Dick Smith, the glish heavyweight 1 trained for this encounter at the home of ncois Descamps. I was supremely happy in my work to get in condition for Smith. Descamps had built a pretty home at La er- che, with a considerable estate sur- rounding it. 1 would take my dog and gun and tramp for miles through the country nd then would spend hours in the gymnasium Descamps had built. It was a most enjoyable training period for me. . met Smith on July 19, 1919, in the | Cirque de Paris. I bea! nhim in eight | rounds, but because it had been pre- | dicted that 1 would win in short or-} der and decisively, the result not only disappointed thousands of my follow- ers, but left a feeling in me that something was wanting in my per- formance s not my old confi- dent self in the ring. That I know. 1 was unable to judge my pur.uhcs’ accurately, and Smith often made me miss by foolish mar He boxed better that night than any English heavyweight 1 ever had met before, but that was smal! coirsolation to me. ! Before meeting Smith 1 had sisned to meet Joe Beckett for the Euro- pean championship, which 1 held, provided Smith did not beat me, so it was predicted rather freely that, because I had been unable to beat Smith more quickly, 1 surely would lose to Beckett. I had a great deal of trouble in reaching Smith with a knockout punch. When 1 did land it I almost botched the job by hitting him where the effect would be less noticeable. I just did reach the point of his chin. This was exasperating to me, for nev- er before did I experience any diffi- culty in striking where I wanted to, provided the proper opening was left for me. It has been charged that I played with Smith as long as it was safe in order to throw Beckett off his guard and give the impression in England that I would not be hard to beat. This is not true. 1 tried my very best to beat Smith quickly, but the old skill was not present with me when I did try to beat Smith. If it was puzzling to the crowd which looked on and to the world which was following closely the fight, im- agine what must have been my own feelings and those of Descamps. Of course, even at that time, I was slarn'ng to meet Jack Dempsey, who had just won the world’s champion- ship in this country. Therefore, 1 was filled with more than ordinary fear of what might happen when I s - - — Wonder What a Scale Thinks Abovt l e c— e — . - S—— OF ALL DEVICES IN THIS WORLD - | HAave THE MOST FUN FOR Twe MOoNEY - FOR A CENT \ CAN GET Twe BIGGEST LAUGH- COMES A VICTIM Now | GAVE him 374 POUNDS - - YOWI - HA Hay GET HIS EXPRESSION .

I didn’t fear Bec' ett in the sense that I believed he might beat me. - Merely was 1 fearful lest I should not be able lo defeat him decisively enough to mak a match with Dempsey the next xtcp in mv career. The Beckett bout had been ar- ranged for September, but the day before 1 met Smith orders were sent me to report back to the training lcamp at Joinville, so Descamps asked and obtained a postponement of the hout. This gave me a breath- ing spell to think things over thor- oughly and plan a new. campaign of training which 1 hoped would put me in better condition. It was sug- gested at this time that I asked the postponement because I feared Beck- ett, but this, of course, is not true. I have already shown how much I feared Beckett. 1 did not like this suggestion. never have refused to fight at any time, and T told Descamps that, rather than be charged thus, I would meet Beckett in September. Des- camps told me he would leave me if 1 insisted. He pointed out that Beckett was well-trained and that I was running the ris of a crushinz defeat if 1 persisted in the scheme. And finally I succumbed and the date was changed to October. 1 Left on Bases £l 2, Heilman, Sargent. .

Polo Fall for American it Lonuon, June team which yesterda the defense of the America’s polo swept through 8 British aggregation and won thae right to ecarry back across the Atlantic the international challenge cup, was warmly congratu- lated by polo experts and the news- paper writers here tod The cup { out oppos Middies Win Varsity Race by Five Lengths at Poughkeepsie Poughkeepsie, June 23.—First at the first at the finish, and first at every other stage of the mile struggle—that was the achievement of powerful Navy crew in the big race of the intercollegiate regatta on the Hudson last evening. Rowing as few other eights had rowed in the classic, the midshipmen made their journey down the river into the gather- ing shadows one of startling triumph. Kor the Navy not only won but it gained the goal of its ambitions by a margin of more than five lengths. For two miles the varsity contest was a stirring duel between the Navy and Cornell, challenge and counter-chal- lenge, sprint matched by sprint, with Cornell hopes still running high. But once past the bridge and into the final mile, the midshipmen proved that there was not another eight in this country which could cope with it this day. Then came the real battle of the eve- ning, a gruelling, heart testing fight be- tween California and Cornell for second place. And when the line had been crossed California had gained the honor by only three feet. That battle for second honors was every bit s fas- cinating and pulse quickening the memorable sprint in which a great San- fard crew almost caught a winning Cor- nell eight in a race of races in 1915. Columbia Fails Dismally. Behind the glory of the Navy the astonishing success of California and Cornell’s satisfaction of having rowed far better than she had been expected to row, there came the most poignant of disappointment. The largest dose from the cup of aloes went to the sons of Columbia, New York's own. Colum- bla came here unbeaten, alone without a record unblemished among the six crews which went to the starting line. It was Columbia which was expected to have it out with the Navy, but Colum- bia was the most dismal of dismal fail- ures. Columbia not only was beaten badly but it suffered the humiliation of finish- ing last, sixth in a field of six for an t which had been looked to for a repetition of the great triumphs of the Columbia crews of 1914 and 1895. Fourth place went to Pennsylvania, the Penn crew which until only a weck ago had been the junior v: ity. The Quakers finished two behind Cornell. Syracuse came through with a great spurt in the last half mile and fifth place from the dying Columbians, finishing two lengths be- hind Penn. Columbia never was a fac- tor, for never was it better than third, and never a formidable third.at that. In spite of the fact that it rowed with- ition in the last half mile the cstablished a record which muy time if the Intercolleg ociation adheres to the The men from An- in 14 munutes, 7 start, three a stalwart, s seized Navy nd for Kowing three mile course, nupolis were caught scconds, in water that was as smooth as it ever was on this course.
