FAMOUS GOLFERS TO PLAY
IN u. s. FOR WAR BENEFIT

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Golfers are
keenly interested in a report that
Harry .vardon and several other IA
nous English professionals, will tour
America during the coming season.
yardon, Taylor, Ray, Braid and other
former holders of the English Open
Championship. played series of four.
hall matches throughout England dur
ing the past summer, turning the net
receipts over to the War Relief Fund.
If proper arrangements can be
made with a quartet of these players
the plan is to have them tour the
United States and Canada during the
1916 season with the same ultimate
use of the gate receipts. Most Of the
professionals mentioned are past the
age where their services would be ac-
ceptable in trench warfare, but they
are understood to be eager to turn
their golfing ability into material as
sistance for England during the con-
tinuation of the war. Ray, Vardon and
Braid had engaged passage to this
country last summer, but the sinking
of the Lusitania caused them to abant
don the trip.

The question of football supremacy
between rival teams is likely to be
decided by a process of mathematical
deductions in the future. Rutgers has
come to the fore with the statement
that its team gained 2021 yards from
403 scrimmage plays during the past
season, showing an average gain of
about five yards per play. Nebraska
claims to lead both East and West
in average number Of points per game.
It may develop that the plan proposed
some years ago to give a varying
value to the touchdown, depending
upon the distance covered during the
march to the score, will yet find its
way to a place in the football code.

master Of Eddie McGoorty, the Osh-

the Australian Knocked out Eddie for
the count in the eighth round of a
scheduled 20-round bout. Darcy was
the aggressor all the way.
In the third round McGoorty landed
a number of blows, but they lacked
steam, and Darcy was shifting back
and forth across the ring and avoiding
the American in other rounds. In the
fifth Darcy and McGoorty mixed with
a number of stiff body blows that ere

two boys.
Darcy Strong.
McGoorty was taking punishment in
the seventh round and Darcy's short
body blows appeared to be taking eff
feet. The Australian rocked Eddie on
two occasions with stiff hooks to the
law and the crowd went wild with de-
light. McGoorty attempted to fight
Darcy at his own game on three &C.
casions. but the local boy returned
the fire with vigcr and the American
changed his tactics.
In the first round the boys exchang-
ed a number of blows, but none took
effect. They appeared to be trying
themselves out. AS in their previous
fight, the two middleweights watched

Jack Kearns Who Arrived on
Sonoma Tells of Attempt

Jack Kearns, famous promoter of
ring contests, arrived in Honolulu this
morning in the steamer Sonoma on
the way to San Francisco. Kearns
has been in Sydney for some time,
and has been active in the fight game
there. having had charge of number
OF Americans. Billy Murray, Jimmy
Clsbby and other we'll known boxers,
including Joe Bonds and Red Watson,
went to Australia on the advice of
Kearns.
Kearns brings the news that Les
Darcy was ready to leave Sydney for
number of engagements in the Unit
ed States against the best middle
weights. Kearns had been angling
with the Australian boxer for some
time. and had finally received his con
sent to make the trip to the United

Australia. Wherever fighting is men

in Sydney. His defeat of Eddie Nc
Goorty and Jimmy Clabby has brought
him more fame in the Antipodes than
even Bob Fitzsimmons attained. The
fans in Sydney wanted Darcy to re
main in Australia.
After using ali the persuasion that
was possible the Australians found out
that Darcy intended to leave with
Kearns for America. Immediately the
powers that be started the machinery

The champion middleweight was
forced to go before the House of Par
