CARPENTIER
TWO SPARRING PARDS
WT7W ?GT WALLOP
Challenger Shows Audience Some Hitting Powers Which
Have Been Concealed Flock of New Partners
Roughly Treatpd in Last Public Workout
By nOUEKT W. MAXWELL.
Sport Editor Erenlnr Public Id(fr
Mnnhasset, L. I., June 24.
GEORGES CARPENTIER looked Hkd n real fighter In bis Inst public
workout hero yesterday. For almost nn hour lie performed for a largo
crowd of visitors and did better work tbnn nt any time since landing on this
side of the ocean This startling Information wac buzzed around by tho
camp followers and follow erodes, and they should know. They have been
getting an eyeful on visiting days for the last nix weeks.
The challenger knocked a pair of sparring partners still and manhandled
two others. That gate him a hatting average of .500 for the day. While
doing this he uncorked some fancy footwork and showed a wonderful right
wallop. It was a real hnymakcr and always scored a bulUcyc.
"Any guy who can put over a punch like that, said Willie Lewis,
"can carry my dough on July 12. He can puuch hard, and when he hits some
thing has to drop. He will do the same to Dcmpsey. Jack can't keep out
of the way." , A.
' This is Just one opinion gathered from the mob. There were many others
In the tame vein. Everybody whs Impressed because the hard hitting was
entirely unexpected. Gasps of surprise iame from the large audience, which
contained about 10 p r cent expert"
Georges operated on a (lock of new sparring partners nnd sent them
back home last night besring the label. "Opened by mistake." These young
gents were pressed into service because of the sad accidents which befell Paul
Journcc and Itnlian Joe Gans in Brooklyn last Monday night. Roth were
socked for loops and are not in shape for further damage. Italian Joe took
It on tho hoof on Wednesday and has not been heard from since. His work la
over and he will have to pay to sec tho fight.
It was reported tht some high -class boxers would box with the challenger,
n'nd many believed Charley Weincrt had signed for a week. This, however,
proved to be only a report, and the same went for the high-class stuff. There
were three new ones wc counted them coming nnd going. They had kind
faces once nnd a slight knowledge of boxing. They knew how to put up
' their hands and where to tie on the gloves.
TIIE first to appear teas an agile athlete named Danny Rots. lie
weighed J$1 pounds, nnd if they didn't pay him before he stepped
into the ring he still is an amateur. Danny boxed one round and re
mained in an upright position throughout. This teas another surprise.
Two Sparring Partners Are Knocked Out
NEXT to appear was his brother, who still bore the family name of Dave
Rosenberg. Dave, according to the wise persons near me, was n fair
third-rate llght-mlddlcwcight. After seeing him we ngrec the man was right.
lie IS what was said about him.
Dave started out beautifully, and ten seconds after that stopped a hard
right with his chin nnd flopped. There was much consternation ns Georges
assisted his partner to his feet, handled htm gently nnd spoke kind words in
his ear. Then he socked him around until Frawn-swah Des Camps called
tlmc. Dave staggered out of the ring bleary-eyed, but with a happy Bmilc
onls face,
Chris Arnold was the next victim. Nobody knew who Chris was, but
In a short time decided he was a friend of Dave's. Chris had an anchor
tattooed on his left nrm, which proved he had been in the army or something.
He led with his chin and hit Carpentier in the right fist. Arnold lost all
interest in the proceedings as he lay out there in the hot sun, but h, too,
waa gently lifted to his feet nnd placed in position to earn his money.
After he left the ring Chris wiped his bloody nose, caressed a swollen
lip, felt to find out if his left eye still was in place and said he slipped.
Joe Jcanette put on the finale. Joe Is too old a bird to take any chances
and romped through the three-minute session without getting hurt. He and
Georges wrestled around the ring, did some In-fighting and covering up.
Jeanetto was too foxy to leave any openings, for he had reached an age where
It is difficult to get up immediately nfter a sound sleep. However, Cnrpcntler
had a great workout with Joe and1 showed some stuff which only the colored
marvel could have taught him.
While the workout was impressive, it meant nothing. Benny Leonard
could have knocked out those blmboes, because all that was necessary wns
to let the right fist collide with nn unguarded chin. The challenger had nothing
to worry him. The sparring partners offered no resistance nnd he just waited
1 for an opening. True, he showed an Intelligent knockout wallop nnd snapped
it across as well as any boxer, but he could have done the samo to the big
bag of Band out in the barn.
VWOCKINQ out that pair of mediocre minus fighters teas the same
as a guy vho hits the stock market when it's down.
Challenger in Superb Physical Condition
CARPENTIER looked to be In superb physical condition. He Is thinner
than when I saw him two weeks ago and is down to weight, nis eye is clear
and his skin is colored with a healthy tan. He looked ready to step Into the
ring at a moment's notice.
The challenger made his usual impressive entrance when the proper time
arrived. Wearing the white bathrobe which reached ulmost to the ground
he walked through the crowd to he barn, closely followed by Des Camps
and Gus Wilson. He did not Kinile, but wore a tort of a frown. After punch
ing the bag a few moments and indulging in some llmbcrlng-up exercises,
be wound soft bandages around his hands nnd donned the boxing gloves.
During the one-round sessions with the four sparring partners Cnrpentier
appeared to be constantly looking for an opening to shoot across his right.
It wasn't a hook, but a straight punch, delivered while the left shoulder wns
raised slightly. He put a lot of power behind the punch nnd something had
to drop when It landed.
10 Is evident that Georges has been practicing this punch for some time.
He probably figures that Dcmpsey will depend on his left for effective work,
and plans to beat him to the punch. Time and again he let that right fly,
and he missed only when he wanted to.
The last time I snw Carpentier his right wbb a joke. It was a Western
Union wallop telegraphed from the start, and anybody could avoid it.
Now the punch is almost perfection.
His left also is good. Jcanette or somebody has been teaching him new
stuff, for he now Is Jabbing stiff-armed like Jack Rrltton, and getting away
with It. Still, It is hard to judge what a boxer can do against a real man
when one sees him wallop the blmboes that can be had for a nickel a dozen
l7r taking it all in all, Carpentier is very much improved and has
O every appearance of a classy boxer. He is in condition to fight and
seems confident of victory.
No More Public Workouts Before the Fight
AFTER the boxing act Georges went to the barn "to do some ropc-bkipping
and bag-punching. He didn't do much of either and then led the pro
cession to the house.
Before he left, Des Camps said that all workouts next week would be
private. "Georges is In shape, " he said, "nnd will not do any more hard
work. He wants to be quiet until the big fight. The place will be closed
to all visitors after today."
There was n great crowd on hand yesterday. Machines were parked on
each side of the road and the guardian at the gate was kept busv. Folks
from Creat Neck, Little Nerk, Bayslde and other points north and south
were there In abundance, and the scenerv made the matinee look like a
lawn fete.
Those who passed the outer portals were allowed tn roam in the big
yard or visit the barn. The house was fenced off nnd only those carrying
cancB were allowed to go In. Big Bill Edwards and a couple of friends got
by safely and met the new sparring partner? Cnrpentier was asleep at the
time and Joirrnee was nursing a busted nose.
Many foreign writers were on the scene wondering what it was all
about. Such Interest In a boxing match was entirely new to them.
'pJIBY were allowed to stiok around the house and not mir with the
common mob because they were friends of Georges,

PHILS ARRIVE FOR
L
Open This Afternoon With Now
York Giants in First of
Six-Came Series
MACKMEN QFF FOR BOSTON
We hnve with us todny the Phillies,
bossed by Bill Donovnn and owned by
President Bill Baker among others. The
pnrt.v of the second pnrt will be the '
Muggsy McGrnw-Hughcy Jennings
managed New York Giants. Cntftnln
Irish Mcusel and his mates checked in
this morning for a long stay that lasts I
until July 23.
Contrary to expectations nnd reports,
Ed Konctchy, the veteran first sackcr
of the Brooklyn Dodgers, will not be
found in a Phtlllc uniform this after
noon. Everybody seemed to be In favor
of tho deal, according to reports from
Brooklyn, but Press Baker. The result
is that Red Causey will continue to
wear locnl regalia nnd Koncy will do
likewise in the City of Churches.
The Phils had anything but n success
ful western nnd enstcrn trip. They
were nicked unmercifully by the men
from across the Appalachians and like
wise by the hired hands of the East.
Yet they are returning homo with hopes.
The long grind away from home loam
with the injured list increased, nnd with
the loss of morning practice that results
from traveling has mnde the Phils a
doormat for the rest of the clubs. Back j
on the old camping grounds Donovan
and his crow expect to get started. The
pitching staff, shot to pieces by injuries,
will be in better shape to start the home
stay than they were when they went
West. Leo Meadows is ready to take
his turn on the hill with the same
regularity ns last year, nnd that means
a lot, for Lee Is one of tho best twirlers
in the Ben lor circuit.
Bargains for Fans
Five games will be played with the
noon a doublo-headcr, n Saturday trent
for the inns, la on tno caru, wnwe me
same thing holds for Monday. On
Wednesday the Giants leave and Brook
lyn comes to Broad and Huntingdon,
followed by Boston, St. Iouls, Pitts
burgh. Cincinnati and Chicago.
The Athletics, displaying a brand of
baseball that mado the fans feel sorry
that they were packing up to go nway,
captured the rubber game of the series
with Washington by dropping the Sena
tors 5 to 3 in the broiling sun. It
wns the fourth wlff out of the last sue
startH for the Mnckmen, the best record
they have mnde In many moons. The
home btay on tho whole has been more
successful than nny home stauu in
veara, according to the sharps. In nil
the A's captured ten games and lost
sixteen. Against Boston they split even
in a six-game series, which gives them
the edge in the series with two of the
Eastern teams. Against the Western
ers, the Mackmen did not do so well,
winning one out of four from Detroit
nnd one out of three from Cleveland,
St. Louis and Ulilcago.

Twilight baseball fans hnyo the privi
lege of seeing a wido assortment of teams
playing after-supper ball this evening,
and some of our foremost and most
prominent local semi-pros nro in ac
tion. This Is nothing new for the ma
jority of them are busy playing every
day.
Manager Phil Haggerty Is all set for
tho Tamaqua team, which will appear
before tho critical Richmond public at
Belgrade and Ontario streets and op
pose Nativity. The uptowncrs on a
recent trip up-State lowcrod the colors
of Tamaqua, and they havo not recov
ered from the shock to this day. They
want revenge and have chosen this eve-
ning ns the occasion. Carrigan will
likely pitch for the locals.
Up at Chclten avenue and Magnolia
streets, the home of Germantown, Dave
Hennis will send his suburbanites
against the Stetson hatters. Cotter, i
who is n Germantown boy, will pitch
for Walter Johann's aggregation, while
Uennis will pin his hopes on the vet
eran Johnny Barker to register a vic
tory for the home contingent.
First Game for Splius
The South Philadelphia Hebrew As
sociation has been turning out crack
athletic teams for' many years. They
have held a prominent position in bas
ketball, football, soccer, track and field
I turn baseball, fsow they are a lull
J fledged homo club, beginning tills evc-
iitiift, wiiuu uivy iiuu ujr (iBUiiii, iuuiiiiie
Johnson's Norfolk Stars nt Broad and
Blgler streets.
"We plan to give the fans downtown
only the best," is the way Ktldlc Gott
lieb, their hustling representative, ex
pressed it. "We have a great club,
but it will still be better nnd Charlie
Gloslt will pitch tonight. Parkesburg
Iron will be met on Sunday, and the
best in tho State will nil appear at
Broad and Bigler streets."
While on the subject of Broad street
it might be added that in the extreme
other end of the city at Allegheny ave
nue Hohlfcld, undlspted leaders of the
Industrial League, play the Cuban
Stars. It Is the hardost game the ham
mockers have scheduled this senson, but
they expect to come out on top.
Bloomer Girls at Shanalinn Grounds
The Quaker City Bloomer Girls, who
recently defeated Hohlfeld at Broad
street and Allegheny avenue in the
presence of 10,000 fans, play the West
Phllly Giants on the Hhanuhan grounds,
at Forty -eighth and Brown streets.
Miss Anno Kniester, the "Babe Ruth"

will beat Carpentier becauso the former
is an American and the latttcr Is a
Frenchman. In one way this Is a logi
cal viewpoint, since -America has turned
out all the heavyweight champions for
the last thirty years and France has
never turned out one. They know that
on the average a good American boxer
can beat a good French boxer, since
the Americans arc much better than the
French at this game. In the same man
ner you could name ten leading tennis
players among women who would bo
much better than any ten we could
name. You have had many stars, dat

DID yoii ever notlco how a nation Is
inclined to .take n victory for

rit a defeat? A few weeks ago, when
Great Britain was mopping un with
America at amateur golf, malo and

of cheer in tho sporting pages of Ene

the Australians and gloomy forebodings
as to what might happen In the test
matches at-polo The golf triumphs
wcro taken casually. But the cricket
defeats provoked numerous letters
around the general theme, "What Ii
the matter with English cricket?"
AMONG the best-known sportsmen
visiting America for the champion
ship fight is Harry Preston, who hap.
pcnPd to be one of the committee to
welcome John Lawrence Sullivan to
England some thirty-five years ago. Mr.
Preston is now beyond sixty, but his
keen interest In boxing remains undi
minished. "Sullivan," he said, "is
always referred to as a slugger. But
I would like to add that In his prime
he wns one of tho fastest big men I
ever saw, fast not only on his feet, but
lightning fast with his demolishing
hands. Remembering him ns I do, it
will bo of great interest to see how
Dcmpsey compares with your first
champion, as I can visualize him in Ms
prime."
