Abstract: Let X be a smooth projective algebraic curve of genus g minus $rgeq1$ points defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic $pgeq0$. The structure of the largest prime to p quotient of the 'etale fundamental group is well known by transcendental methods : it is isomorphic to the largest prime to p quotient of a free pro-finite group on 2g+r-1 generators. We show that, with purely algebraic means, we can prove the corresponding result for the largest pro-solvable quotient of these groups.
