Les Darcy. Australian Marvel.

Les Darcy, the sensational Austria
liam middleweight, won more fights in
1915 than any other fighter of promi-
nence in the world. He had 13 bouts
and won IL. His only defeat was by
Jeff Smith, whom he beat twice later.
Darcy's victories included two knock
puts over Eddie McGoorty and a deci-
sion over Jimmy Clabby, which gives
him a good claim to the middleweight
championship.
Charley White runs second in VIC
tories with ten, nine of which were
knockouts. He also boxed seven no.
decision bouts and one draw. Bat
,Leyinsky had the most fights-2S. He
won one, lost one, boxed one draw and
25 no-decision bouts. The record of
Freddy Welsh, lightweight champion,
Is a joke. He was in 19 bouts and all
were no-decision affairs. Freddy re-
fused to risk his title.
The same goes for Jess Willard,
heavyweight champion. He was in
the ring once in 1915 and that was
when he won the title. The records
of the leading performers are as fol-
lows:

READY FOR EASTERN REGATTA
Stanford University Eight Hard at
Work Preparing for Big Event
at Poughkeepsie.

Brimful of confidence inspired by
their showing at Poughkeepsie last
season, the Stanford University eight,
the California Giants, are hard at
work preparing for the big event to
be held at Poughkeepsie next June.
Western rowing experts entertain the
opinion that the Cardinal crew, with
the experience gained last season, will
be more formidable. The ships COM
pany which lost to Cornell only by an
eyelash will be practically intact. Bill
Bloesser, a victim of the five-year rule,
will be the only absentee.
A coaching launch capable of max
ing IL miles an hour has been installed
for the use Of Guerena and will facili-
tate his work in polishing up the Car
dinal oarsmen. AS Stanford has been
invited to participate again in the
eastern regatta, whether it wins the
coast title or not, strenuous effort
will be made to include the coast title
in the Stanfords crew luggage when
it goes east. The entire university
has been aroused to enthusiasm and
determination over Stanford's show.
