Learns He's Out.
' Carpentier helped to carry Beckett
to the Englishman's corner. Beck
ett's eyes opened as this was done
and his seconds said to him:
"Joe, you're out."
Beckett was unable to understand
it all for a moment, but he seemed
to comprehend when the crowd be

Carpentier was hoisted to the
shoulders of the4 first of the crowd

stadium was cheering, including the

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 4. (Special.)
By far the most successful sea
sons in several years, the state col
legiate foot ball conference closed
1 hanksgiving day, . with York a
leader by a wide margin. The Ne
braska .Wesleyan university was
runner up with Peru, Hastings and
Cotner close in the race. York
closed the season undefeated. , ,
It is doubtful .whether, in second
ary college circles, two teams as
perfectly balanced and coached as
the York and Wesleyan teams, have
ever competed in a single season.

game at York when'the latter
lost by three touchdowns but, aside

MRS. CLEMENS
GIVEN SURPRISE
BY THE RESULTS
After Ten Years' Suffering
She Takes Tanlac and Now
N Finds Herself Well.
? "Teniae has not only overcome
my troubles, but it has given me so
much life and strength that I feel
better than I have in ten years,
was the statement made by Mrs.
Angie Clemens who lives at 96 Col
lege avenue, Rosedale, Kansas,
while talking Jo the Tanlac repre-
. sentative the other day. -
"During the past ten years I have
been troubled so' bad with indiges
tion, rheumatism, nervousness and
liver trouble that my condition had
become serious," Mrs. Clemens con
tinued. "My appetite was poor and
what little I ate disagreed with me
and gave me terrible pains in my
stomach and gas formed so bad
that it made breathing difficult for
me. The rheumatism was all
through my system and troubled
me nearly all the time and my liver
bothered me a great deal. I was so
nervous that the least) little sudden
noise or sound would make me jump
and at night I was too restless to
sleep good and many a time I have
lain awake till after midnight un-
, able to close my eyes. Every morn
ing I got up so weak and tired that
all day long I felt worn out, and
at times I could not walk around
the house on account of the pains in
my knees and back. "I spent hun
dreds of dollars on different kinds
of medicines and treatments but I
got only temporary relief and I was
: in such wretched health I knew I
couldn't go on in this condition
much longer.
"Finally I began to read about
Tanlac in the papers and as 'some
of my neighbors who had tried it
recommended it to me I commenced
taking it And to my surprise ' I
was feeling greatly improved by the
. end of the first week and I kept on
getting better until now I am in
fine health again. I have a splendid
appetite,! everything I eat digests
perfectly with no bad effects at alL
My liver is in fine condition and
the rheumatism has just about all
disappeared and my nerves are as
steady as a clock. I sleep sound all
night long and get up feeling so
. fine that my housework is a pleas
ore to me and I am training in
j weight "and .strength right along;
Tanlae deserves all the credit for
ray well and happy condition and I
am only too glad to recommend it
publicly for it has done, more for
! me than everything else combined."

ing and defeating men in the welter
weight, division. The Frenchman
scored his first sensational victorv
when he knocked out Jim Sullivan,
the English middleweieht m two
rounas at Monte vano, in m.
At Ghent, the following year. Car
pentier, after being knocked down
twice by Bombardier ' Wells, the
English . heavyweight - champion.
knocked out the British representa
tive in the fourth round. The fact
that a French lad 18 years old and
only a middleweight, had knocked
out the cleverest English heavy
weight seemed to some of the lat
ter' backers a fluke. ' Carpentier
dispelled this doubt, however, when
he . went over to London and
knocked out Wells a second time,
ending the bout in the opening
round. Forty days afterwards, Car
pentier fought Pat O'Keefe, the
English middleweight champion,
and scored a knockout in the second
tound.
Lost to Jeanette.
Joe Jeanette, the American negro
heavyweight, defeated Carpentier 4
early in 1914, but after that and pre
vious to the declaration of war be
tween France and Germany, the
French champion . won decisions
from Kid Jackson and Gunboat
Smith on fouls. .
A few k hours after the Smith
fight, Carpentier, who was in Eng
land, returned to France on the
night boat in answer to his coun
try's call, and the following day was
in uniform.
During his early ring career Car
pentier grew rapidly from d bantam
weight to a light heavyweight and
beat the European champions in
each - class as he progressed. He
amassed a fortune variously esti
mated at from $200,000 to $500,000!
Most of this money he invested in
coal mines near Lens, where he was
born, and lost everything there by
the Germans' invasion.
During the war, Carpentier was
conspicuously daring as an aviator.
He was frequently commended by
his superior officers, and among the
many decorations conferred upon
him was the military medal, the
highest war honor that can be given
to a French soldier. ,
Hadn't Started. ,
After the fight Beckett said to the
newspaper men: -
"I hadn't started to fight, when I
got it. I didn't realize what had
happened. I was just 'filling in'-for
the first round when he slipped in."
When the aero-flares announced
the decision Londoners were unable
to believe it; they thought a mistake
had been made.
Dempsey Not Surprised at
News of Carpentier's Victory
Los Angeles', Dec 4. Jack Demp
sey, heavyweight champion, said
here Carpentier's victory over Beck
ett in London was no suprise to
him, as he and . his manager. Jack
Kearns, had picked the French
champion to win.
Dempsey said Carpentier was a
more scientific, quicker and harder
hitter than Beckett
'"I am ready to fight Carpentier
or any other fighter in the world
if I get my price," said Dempsey.
"Carpentier in all probability will
be my next opponent and the meet
ing probably, will come off next
spring."
Promoter of Carpentier-
Beckett Bout Coming Here
London. Dec. 4. (Bv The Associ
ated Press.) C B. Cochrane, the

fight, will leave here for the United

Midland was a late season favor
ite. It was all Wesleyan, minus the
services of Captain Kahm at right
end and Carr at center, twa all-state
men, could do to cross the Fremont
goal line once. The northern eleven
had a late start and won most of
their games in the last of the sea

Three players stand oilt, head and

brilliant punting of Myers, has

Gately of Peru is by far the best

wno can think ot more strategy than
any veteran varsity quarterback on

worth.
Fuel Situation Will Not
Prevent Wilde-Sharkey Bout
Milwaukee. Wis.. Dec. 4. The
fuel situation will have no effect on
the Wilde-Sharkey boxing bout in
Milwaukee Saturday ' night. There
is enough coal in the Auditorium.
wnere the bout is planned to be
held, to heat the building for a
month, according to the promoters.

Promoter Al Fiori of Council
Bluffs announces that the six-round
bout between Billy Uvick and John

match between Charley Peters and

held up until the present coal situ
ation is relieved.
The show probably could be held
with artificial heat, but the matter
of lighting the Council Bluffs Audi
torium ia a problenr that Fibri is
unable to solve. The original date
was Friday, December 12, but Fiori
declares he "will not' attempt to
stage the show until all danger of a
coal famine is past.

Rickard Says Carpentier ;
' Is Logical Title Contender
' New York, Dec. 4. "Georges Car
pentier is apparently the logical con
tender to meet Jack Dempsey for
the world's heavyweight champion
ship," said Tex Rickard, the promd
ter, when informed by The Associa
ted Press of the result of the London
battle, on afs return from Chicago
late Thursday night.
"Staging such a bout, however, is
far from being an easy task," con
tinued Rickard. "There are many
difficulties that stand in the way'and
I am not at all certain that I care
to consider such a proposition at
this time. Both Dempsey and Car
pentier would undoubtedly expect a
very large sum in the form of
purses and guarantees and there ap
pears to be very few places that
would be likely to return gate re
ceipts sufficient to warrant the im
mense outlay involved.
"If a boxing law permitted even a
10-round no-decision bout in or near
this city, it might be possible to
stage the match here, but it would
require a large city like New York to
draw from in order to make the
bout a financial success. I have not
the slightest doubt that a match be
tween Carpentka and Dempsey
would be a great boxing contest,
but in these times of inflated prices
I would prefer to. let some other
person do the worrying and work in
cidental to such a match. I should
have to see more profit than is visi
ble at present before I would be
more than a spectator."
Wage increasesMhat range from
$3 to $5 a week have been secured
by the bakers' union in San Fran
cisco. Night work is eliminated, ex

Pesek Winner in Match
With Warren Miller
Callaway, Neb., Dec. 4 (Special
Telegram.) John Pesek was the
winner of hi? 'match here last night
against Warren Miller. Miller was
at the mercy of the Shelton farmer
from the time the two went on the
mat and Pesek was returned win
ner of the first fall in three minutes
after time was called. Miller came
back strong in the second fall, stay
ing 14 minutes before Pesek pinned
him to the mat.
Want 1924 Olympiad.
'Chicago, Dec. 4. Initjal steps
were taken by prominent sporting
men -and civic leaders to have the
Olympic games held in Chicago in
1924, following the announcement
that a contract had been let for the
erection of the world's largest sta
dium here.
