    INDEPENDENT TOSSERS WIN OVER WILLIAMSPORT-BIG G.HE AT STEELTON
CARPENTIER-WINS!
WHOEVER HE HITS
George McDonald Tolls New
Yorkers About French
Fighter
New York., Dec. 26. —George McDon
ald. the famous English sportsman,
is here. The Inst time George was in
New York he guided the pugilistic
destinies of Matt Wells, then English
lightweight champion, whose bout
with Knockout Brown auspiciously
opened boxing on the now defunct
Frawley law in this state. McDon
ald, and it is understood, C. B.
Cochrane, promoter of the recent
Carpentier-Beckett bout in London,
who is now on his way here, are go
ing to try to sign Dempsey for a
match* abroad with the European
champion.
Will Surprise Dempsey
"Carpentler will surprise Jack
Dempsey, world's title holder, when
the two come together in a bout for
the world's title." says McDonald.
"C'arpentier will beat any man he can
hit solidly." he added. "The French
boxer has tremendous punching
ability and 1s wonderfully skillful
and clever. Mind. 1 don t say he will
beat Dempsey. I couldn't very well |
commit myself to that extent for X
haven't seen your champion in ac
tion. T understand Dempsey is a
wonderful fighter. He must bate
been to beat Jess Willard. P rom what
1 have seen of Carpentier. however.
1 will say without hesitation that any
boxer who feels the full impact of
his blows must experience defeat.
Works Like n Master
"I've seen many great fighters, in
cluding John L. Sullivan, whom 11
helped prepare for his memorable
bout at Chantilly. France against
Charley Mitchell; In his fight against
Beckett, Carpentier convinced me
that he ranked with the best of them.
He didn't make an unnecessary mov..
He worked like a master and made
every move count. Beckett hadn t a
chance to get started before the,
match was over, and the blow tha*.
ended Beckett's interest in the bout
did not travel more than a foot.

This is the time of year that the |

"W. T. Tyler, director of opera-'
tlons, has advised the variorus re
gional directors that, owing to tho i
uncertainty of the date on which
legislation will be passed releasing
the railroads from Federal control, it
has been deemed inadvisable for the
railroad administration to purchase
and print railroud passes for 1920 and
suggesting that the Federal man
agers have their lists prepared on the
basis of the railroads being returned
on December 31. as well as having
their pass stock selected so that It
ran be procured on short notice for
the use of the various roads when
turned back.
If the roads are continued under i
Federal control for a short period!
after the tlrst of the year It is con-!

satisfactory service when handling

also for the miscellaneous freight
'which may properly be loaded in re-1

As packing house products are

of salt as required to obtain the
proper degree of temperature.

LOCAL TOSSERS

i Williamsport Gives Hard Bat
-11?, Lacking Only in
Tossing
' Ijoca) cage fans witnessed one of
the best games of the season lasc
| night, which ended with a victory for
! Harrlsburg Independent-* o<" wti
linmsport, score 47 to "2 The Big Fivo
j from Billtown had the locals guessing
! at times, lacking only in tossing.
While the score is one sided it was
not by any means an easy time for the
j victors. Clever floor work by the
I visitors brought strong applause. Wil-
J liamsport passed well, and on a num
ber of occasions broke up the magnifl-
S cent team work of the local five; but
they fell down woefully on tossing.
1 Eddie Wallower was again a big
i star. His teammates backed him up
jin fine style. Ike McCord and Qerdea
also figured in the sensational shoot
! ing. Great team work by Hamsburg
featured the first half, when the per
i lod ended with the score 21 to 10.
Earnest and Florey were stars for
Williamsport. Cornwall did well in
' caging eight out of 12 from the foul
! line, and the clever floorwork of Kee
' ler was a feature. McCord tossed
9 out of 10 on fouls. Moorehcad play
ed a great game at center.
I For the Saturday night attraction
