Big Prize Fight Pictures Perfect
From a sporting standpoint the
pictures of the Dempsey-Carpentier
fight which will be shown at the
Opera House tomorrow, April 4, are
perfect. Sporting editors through
out the country have given the stamp
of approval which increases their val
ue to the public as a permanent rec
ord of the greatest sporting event
in the history of the world.
Ed Danforth in the Atlanta Geor
gian, says, “You’d be surprised at
the classes of men and women who
have seen the picture. No screen
drama in many seasons has drawn
such a representative audience. No
picture since the “Birth of a Nation”
has found such a universal appeal.
“And when you see it, more than
likely you’ll change your views, if you
hold any against prize fighting.”
“There is nothing that hints of
the unclean in the entire perform
ance," says Cliff Wheatley in the At-

Davenport, Mrs. Henry Lumpkin,
Miss Mary Glover, Miss Alice Mc-
Neill, Mrs. B. F. Easterlin, Jr., Miss
Lois MeMath, Miss Evelyn Bell, Miss
Agnes Gatewood, Miss Mery Parker
and Fiss Eugenia Parker. ' Tickets
aie now at the Bank of Commerce
and will be distributed to these young
women there.
lanta Constitution. “There is no evi
dence of brutality to prove distate
iul to any man, women or child. It
is Simplly the reproduction of two
physically perfect young white men
engaged in the scientific use of the
weapons that nature gave us.”
The answer to the qpestion “Was
Carpentier game?” is given in the
picture according to Morgan Blake,
sporting editor of the Atlanta Jour
nal, who says, “My admiration for
Georges Carpentier increased 50 per
tent after seenig him in the picture.
He didn’t go down until after he had
taken a merciless body beating from
a man twenty pounds heavier. He
was rot knocked out with one punch.
He stood up and took it until his
legs caved in under him. He took
a count of nine and then staggered
to his feet. Down he went again
under a shower of blows. He tried
heroically to get up but he couldn’t.
An din the second round he hit the
cleanest, mightiest blow of the fight,
a blow that drove Dempsey back and
staggered him. It wasnt’ a one-sided
fight. ’
Continuing Mr. Blake says that the
pictures are just like being at the
ringside and that they bring the
fighters so close that the expressions
on their faces can be seen. He also
rays that the full three minutes of

each round are given. “Certainly
the motion picture camera achieved
its greatest feat in the great portray
al,” he says.
“The picture will stand as a monu
ment to the resourcefulness and exe
cutive ability of ‘Tex’ Rickard,’ says
Barney Sheridan in the Mobile Regis
ter.
REAUIFUL ART PICTURES
SEEN BY SLIDES FRIDAY.
A number of Americus admirers
of the beautiful in art were fully
repaid Friday afternoon when the
slides of famous old world paintings
were shown by the picture machine ;
at the Americus high school audi- |
torium.
In the collection were more than ,
50 paintings, all beautifully hand- j
colored, and shown in as nearly the j
original beauty as possible for re- ,
productions to present.
Especially lovely were the paint- j
ings by Gainborough and Rembrant, ‘
Gainborough’s “The Duchess of De- 1
vonshire” being particularly beauti
ful. Carot’s landscapes were also
shown, proving treasures of beauty.
A pleasing musical program was
given, a number of the selections be
ing curtailed because of the inability
of the club members from Monte
zuma and other nearby towns to get
to Americus over the bad roads.
Two selections sung by Mrs. Dan
O’Connell were of particular pleasure,
her splendid voice showiny to good
adfantage in the large auditorium.
Mr c . W. D. Moreland and Miss Mar
tha Wheatley read the short descrip
tions concerning the pictures, which
added much to the interest. Much
credit is due Miss Wheatley fir her
untiring efforts in placing before the
