NUT GMCKER hy Joe "Williams By way of proving he is not the worst fighter in Europe, Georges Carpentier Is back in this country doing a double with a guy named Paolino. Mr. Paolino Is a fugitive from the cheese halls of the Pyrennes Mountains and Is noted for his ability to Bubmit to knockouts lying either face up or face down, as the wind blows. Mr Paolino first attracted at tention as a woodchopper. His record shows he hold decisions at all weights over some of the greatest two handed hall trees in Grand Rapids.

It is hard to predict what luck the celebrated kindling buster will have in this country, where men are men and muggs who pay real jack to see imported ffop pers ffop.are nine karat saps. Mr. Paollno's tumbling novelties will be under the elegant and authentic direction of Mons. Carpentier himself, who knows more about tumbline? than the Boston Red Sox and the January wheat market. It Is said Carpentier's greatest dif ltv waa to cet Mr.

Pablino to remain in a recumbent attitude long enough for the official ciocner to squirt out 10 seconds. Mr. Palino, in the beginning, was ftiven to impetuously and insisted on jumping out of the ring as soon as his opponent started a punch and running for the cash register. This is no longer the policy of the gifted wood and fuel man from the Pyrenees; he collects in advance, and takes his knockouts as they come, which is usually wltl and from all directions. This is, incidentally, Mons.

Carpentier's fifth dollar spearing exped'tion to the gold fields of the knucklo tossing world His motto is a good fish ought to be fed plenty of worms. The Sappy Syncopators will now distort that popular irritation: "You may be a champion to your home folks but you're just a canvas decorator to The mystery of why Joe Beckett has never come to this country is finally explained. It takes too long to scrape him off the floor atter a ngnt. COME STARS ART CARLSON HARTRANFT STANFORD One of the greatest weightmen ever turned out in the far west sector was Glenn Hartranft of Stanford University. Hartranft's specialties were the shot put and discus events.

While in college he had only one real rival along the Pacific slope. That was Clarence Houser, Southern California's star. Like Hartranft, Houser did his best work with the shot and discus. These two rivals clashed in many meets during their collcsiate days. And.

while always on friendly terms, the competition was of the keenest tort when they opposed eacn otner. The 1924 eastern intcrcollegiates saw Hartranft at his best. He took clown 10 points for Stanford on that occasion. He won the 16 lb, shot 1 put with a remarkable heave of 49 feet, 6 inches and the platter throwing event with a mark of 158 feet, 1 inches. Houser was forced to accept third place in the former event, Hills of Princeton nosing him out while he grabbed a second in the discus toss.

A few weeks later Houser partially avenged the double beating by outdoing Hartranft in both events at the Olympics. Hartranft was far below his usual form in France, however, Houser winning on performances considerably lower than the Stanford star had hung up at the eastern meet. And that isn't said with the thought of taking anything away from the Southern Californian either. READING DROPS CHESS if. GAME AT POTTSTOWN' POTTSTOWN.
