By William Abbott. TM CORBETT, Willie Lewis and other ring authorities declare Jack Dempsey is not too big for Carpentier, The accompanying pic- ure of the amazing French champion, the first taken in the United States, Showing Carpentier in real fighting Wondition, effectively confirma these expert assurances that Beckett's con- @uieror ta physically equipped to de- feat the world’s title holder. Carpentier is every inch an effjcient ting machine. His hitting muscles, ile not as showy as Dempsey’s, are Bnely developed. Carpentier's hands, contrary to genera} belief, are only @yerage sige, but his arms are thick banded with subtle muscles. The nchman’s shoulder muscies, two poate humps, denote that young inges packs a K. O, wallop in either After studying Carpentier’s legs it easy to understand why the French is one of the fastest big men that ever cuvorted around a ring. His leg evelopment is more on the lines of a sprinter than a glove artist. In the Carpentier is lightning fast. With panther-like steps he glides ground his bewildered opponent with ease and grace of a dancing master, Carpentier’s great speed first disclosed itself on the running track where even to-day he can reel off 100 yards inside of eleven seconds. ‘While repeatedly classed a8 a second Fitzsimmons the Frenchman in the finderpinnings is vastly different| !0) from the former champion, whose der, knock-kneed legs were hard- bis thick EGS ARE BUILT ED. . regs jegs, while gh te goo model, are particularly an ng.

Before achieving fame in the Carpentier was champion of ja @ peppery sport the French with their feet, Carpentier owes § th of his present agility and nickness of foot to the early train- in la eavate, i the comparison of Carpentier Dempsey the greatest contrast comes in the faces of the two fistic kings. The facial expression of the two gladiators is as different as an Egyptian deity and a statue of Stone- wall Jackson. If the face correctly portrays the soul, Dempsey possesses the true fighting makeup. Pugnacious and wearing a deadly sneer, the world’s champion is anything ut mollycoddle in appearance. Carpentier, unmarked from scores of ring battles, fulfills his role of being the most deceptive boxer that ever captured a big championship, In his fashionable street clothes the dashing Georges could slip into any Fifth Avenue drawing room and feel quite at, home. In the roped arena, however, he is entirely different, a hard, calculating opponent that is constantly scheming to whip over a decisive blow on an unsuspecting ad- versary. The young Frenchman quickl: drops his fighting mask as soon the winning punch {s delivered. It has been a Carpentier custom to help his stricken rival to a stool and offer words of encouragement. DEMPSEY GENERALLY BIGGER THAN CARPENTIER. It is seen that Dempsey has an advantage of nearly twenty pounds and is Janger all over than his for- midable challenger from Europe, but thiy difference is not vital, according to former ring stars. James J. Corbett, after carefully giving Carpentier the once-over the other day, pronounced the noted vis- itor sufficiently massive to lick wal- Corbett sai tipped under 170 when he won some of his most memorable battles, and thought that Carpentier could duplicate his giant killing feat. Willie Lewis, who fought Carpen- tler twenty rounds in Paris eight years ~ and is probably the best equipped American boxer to compare the two leading heavies, frankly pre- dicts that the French idol will be next world's champion. Lewis says Dempsey’s advantage is really noth- ing for heavyweights, and that Car- pentier will not be handica, by pped Jack's superior weight, height, reach,| (Picture of Carpentier, first full figh ting view of French champion, taken .in America, posed especially for Le The Evening World.) It 1s Willie's opinion that George: can hit as hard as the world’s title holder, and if the two ever meet in the ring Carpentier will win because of his greater speed and cleverness. - Young, Giants’ Kid Player, Conceded Highest Honors At Right Field Position ‘Dope Places New York Star Best of Major Leaguers—Hooper, Red Sox Crack, Leads in American Circuit—Neiss, Brook- lyn’s New Find, May Develop Into Another Keeler, By Hugh S.
