IES LOE I LS SEN Ee ee EH Oy Sa ee - ip i NOTISM OF HIS MANAGER WINS FIGHTS FOR CARPENTIER ee ee At Least That’s What English Critics Ascribe Frenchmen’s Vic- tories To in Batties With Beckett and Wells—They Say For- mer Fell a Victim of Descamp’s “Projection of Personal- Wty” and That Beckett Was Behooves Dempsey to Get Busy on This Psychic Busines: Fighting Two Personalities—tit By Robert Edgren. °P ROJECTION of personality by Copyright, 1920, by The Pres Publishing Co, (Tho New York Wrening World) beat Beckett.” This is the latest English alibi for the defeat of the British heavyweight champion by Georges Carpentier. The English eritics have found out at last why Carpentier knocks out English cham- pions so quickly and easily, Now they knew why Bombardier Wells and Beckett lasted only a fraction of &@ round with the frisky Frenchman. Carpentier has a manager, Descamps. They say Descamps has a hypnotic ey that he hypnotizes Carpentier and sends him out to fight, and that when hpynotized Carpentier can’t be ‘hart by a punch and is directed from his corner, Svengali fashion, by his inanager, thus being & sort of human torpedo controlled by hypnotic wireless. I have it all dn a letter from Li jeut. James Duncan, in Paris, Jim ts world’s chanpion disous thrower and interested in all branches of ath- leties, eepocially anything with fighting in it. He was one of the first American voluntcers in the war, went over in the beginning im the En- gimeers as @ buck private and won his commission after certain well known heroic exploits on several bdettiefields. Lieut. Duncan seems to have been ainused by some of the English alibis for Beckett. He inclosed a wad of clippings from English papers, Funny, Beckett himself dosn't claim that Carpentier bad a hypnotic vic- tory. Beckett explained his defeat by : “I was upset by the news of the death, following a boxing tout, of was tald just before I entered the ring by Wiloox’s mother, and the news scared it's manager intimates that it fault Bookett flopped. “As for that beat Beckett, I warned it a week before the Geht,” he have seen Canpentier in all and knew he would use the put Beckett out.” H.” wrote: “It appears to me in the ring, when every nerve fibre in a man’s body is centred a ingle object, and when eye looks imto eye, any powers of hypnotism ane may possess wih be at their stronge™. It is possible Carpentier has very strong hypnotic powers, and that would account for the very inex- plicable way in which his opponents erumple up from the moment they face him in the ring.” Another writer know Beckett would Joga, and mentioned it right after the Algo he says Beckett was out- Said he: “When I knew was a hypnotiet I felt kett would fail. He was not one man, but two. Hxpnotism an enormous bareghenyt when @becial effort is to be made. “Tater wrote this little ‘alibi: “If Carpentier is a hypnotic subject his victory is eas.ly understood by a student of the occuit.” ss “Students of hypnotian know,’ says another critic, “that the power of gost-hypnotic sumgestion, properly i f Fae aa (t 3 i ) eAmlaistered, is almost irresistible.” Another writer suggests that Des- cmmps deliberately made a fighter of Carpentier, catching him young, hyp- ing hin, and making a sort of ring Trilby of him later on, This y explains why Carpentier, as he grew up, knocked ont the Eng- sgl il ebtweight, wel- ight, middleweight and heavy- weight champions. SAYS “AN INFLUENCE” BEAT BECKETT, Water the headline: “Canpentier’s Uasecn Partner,” the Dally Mail sug- gests that there twas “an influence Beckett was unable to fight with his head as he fought with his hands.” “There ' were two personalities ing Beckett from the moment he Sarok tho ring. We goes on "Car: pentier was one. ‘The other was Descamps, his manager, Descamps is @ very excitable man. He is a bundle of nerve osteptoal French personality whose influence oozes from. peg pore. Descamps made a bet that his pupil would knock Beok- ett out in six rounde. Descamps says that when Carpentier meets Demp- Carpentier will win in six rounds, th Descamps. He je the man who is aiding Carpentier with all his mental force. His mentality accom- panies Carpentier into the ring in every fight. He if his unseen, silent partner. When Beckett came into the Ting he was watching Beckett intent- ly. He began to fight Beokett as soon as Beckett stepped into the ring, ‘This is a tough bird, this Descamps, ‘parently he doesn’t even wait for te first bell. But to go on, “Beckett was con- stantly glancing around at Carpentier as he was getting his gloves adjusted Where you *ave the personality of Descamps beginning to work, lmping- ing himself on Beckett's brain and heginning his task of confusing the English boxer's thoughts. Possibly Descamps is not quite conscious of His own power, but it is there all the game. The spot on which you con- = fight, the Frenchman danced all around Beckett, hitting him fast until he tried to cover, then jabbed him in the body to pull his guard down and shot @ crashing right over to his gn- protected jaw. That's exmetly what Willard did to Johnson at Havana. Its the way Jeffries knocked out Fitzsimmons, Jobnson sent home the finishing blow on Jeffries, Dempsey reached Wiltund's jaw—the way prac- tically every fighter tries te win and the way neatty all knockout blows ere landed. It's the oldest trick of the ring. WHY NOT SOME “PSYCHIC STUFF” FOR DEMPSEY? But if Descamps has a hypnotic eye that confuses Carpentier’s opponents, and hypnotic control of Carpentier that sends him out like a wireless-con- trolled human torpedo, our little old tip in time to save the big end of that $400,000 purse they're talking about, Dempsey might get into his corner wearing blinders so that Descamps can't catch his eye. He might hire a hypnotist to hypnotize Descamps. Or he might have Jack Kearns take up hypnotism in some good correspon- dence school so Jack can beat Carpen- tier with @ soul-distracting gaze. Be- jing champion, Jack might insist upon the priviloge ‘of having hypnotic sec- onds to throw out an eye-barrage to foil Descamps. Descamps‘is the only thing Jack needs worry about. As for Carpentier, he's a gallant Frenchman, one of the real heroes of the great war. I'd dislike seeing him on the floor be- ing counted out. But hypnotism or no hypnotiam, that's exactly what I ox- pect to sce of Georges ever gets in the Way of Dempsey's tremendous failing st, —EE 106TH INFANTRY GAMES AT 23D ARMORY TO-NIGHT.
