New York oct. 2 ins gorgeous Georges Carpentier no longer bears much resemblance to the famed Orchid Man who was crushed by Dempsey 27 years ago. He still weighs the weight he but at 54 168 pounds pitted against the might and nary of the Manassa Man mauler. He knows a lot about cer Dan the Frenchman from Casablanca. He thinks cer Dan is a pretty Good fighter. Upon his arrival recently from Paris Carpentier made a Point of saying that Cerdan is among the greatest of All the French fighters. These in eluded  others Eugene Criqui Marcel theil and of course Carpentier. Currently famed As a night club operator in Paris car rentier was. A fighter who came close to greatness. He stopped battling Levin sky for the Light heavyweight championship at Jersey City in 1920, then was knocked out by Dempsey in a heavyweight title bid and finally lost the Light heavy title to battling Siki in j922. Meanwhile he boxed the Best of them in this country with varying Success including Gene Tunney and Tommy Gibbons. Through it All Carpenter was never much More than an Over stuffed middleweight. He was a real Good right hand hitter however besides being a Boxer who had grown Upin the ring. Those who saw the bout still talk about the right hand with which he nailed Dempsey and staggered the mauler that Day at Boyle s thirty acres in Jersey  that one punch was Carpentiers big shot for the Day. When it failed to fetch Dempsey he was through and he went out in the fourth round after having helped to build the first million Dollar Gate in boxing history. In fact it approached two millions. He simply was t big enough with All his skill and his really Good punch. Demp sey had All that plus weight and one of the All time Strong est chins the business has seen. The fight was a Milestone in boxing in Many ways. It was the makings of Tex Rickard for one thing. For another it proved that patriotism would go just so far and fade and die before an onslaught of fists. Carpentier a French hero of the first world War was the popular favorite Over Dempsey who promptly took care of that after spotting Carpentier his sunday punch.
