TURPIN-CARTIER FIGHT ENDS IN A FIASCO

American Disqualified In Second Round For Persistent Holding

London, Mar. 17.

Walter Cartier, 28-year-old New Yorker, was tonight disqualified for persistent holding in the second round of his scheduled ten-round con- test with Britain's Middleweight Champion, Randolph Turpin, at Earl's Court here.

The American completely lost his temper on being disqualified and charged round the ring like an enraged bull,

The fight, which 10,000 fans had been eagerly waiting to see, ended in a flasco after less than four minutesć boxing,.

The 28-year-old New Yorker gave the publie little opportunity of showing of what he was capable. Apart from his clinch- ing, his only blow was a high right swing which he tried several times without avali.

Turpin, cool and collected, bided his time and got home a lovely left and two hard rights as the first round ended, Tho second round had barely started when the end come.

The American, by his first round holding, had made him- self extremely unpopular with the court, and there were shouts from the back of the hal, "Send him home."

This contest was meant to be
