DARCY IN VAUDEVILLE
AT $4,000 PER WEEK

New York, Jan. apparently Les
Darcy has signed away all rights to
himself. Reading the United Press in
terview with George Carpenter, in
which the latter declared it would re-
condition, the Australian champion
got busy this afternoon. According to
statement made by Freeman Bern
STEM a well known theatrical producer,
the pugilist has signed a contract with
him that will net him $4,000. At the
end of that time Bernstein said, the
right of renewal for 20 weeks is con-
tanned in the contract.
1t was impossible to locate Darcy
when the tale shot down on Manhat
tan from the heights of the Hotel AS
tor, where Bernstein is keeping him.
self. Tex Richard however, was al
most overcome.
Il don't believe Darcy has done any
thing of the sort" said Richard. He
came To me today ana toid me OF inns
mans scheme and told me he was
afraid of anything he might offer. He
said he would bring the contract to
me before it was signed-and l believe
he will keep his ward
Eickard said Darcy had given him
all privileges to his rugilistic efforts
and he did not believe anything would
be signed away He added he had told
Darcy it would be all right to sign a
contract for theatrical engagements
alone. if space was left in between
engagements for bouts.
Bernstein knocked everything galley
west however by the boast that he
had put it over the whole gang and
was going to make a sackful of
money"
Bernstein said Darcy was going to
fight and he was going to do little
vaudeville. He did not Indicate where
either of the two will be pulled off
but said things are going to start right
soon. Al Mccoy or Jack Dillon, he
said, would be Darcy's first opponent.

Despite Navy Department,
Congress Will Pass Oil
Land Measures.

Washington. Jan. 3.--Nhle a sub
mittee continued the accumulation OF
data and opinions of army officers on
universal military training, house COM
,nittee worked on details of the $780,
100000 military budget for 1918 and
the senate public lands committee was
informed that all efforts TO reach a
compromise with the navy department
on legislation affecting navy oil lands
again had failed.
Senator Pittman of Nevada, chair
man of |: sub committee appointed to
confer with navy officials. said ef-
forts would now be made to pass oil
land measures considered proper by
congress over the objection of the de-
partment. Western senators expressed
Indignation at the attitude of the navy.
The controversy is over proposed re-
lief for claimants of oil land included
in naval petroleum reserve number two
in California. The department has
held that passage of the pending bill
would threaten the navy's oil reserve
supply and make it dangerous to build
oil burning battle craft in the future.
The senate military sub committee

Coast Artillery school, and Colonel
Charles p. Rhodes of the Mounted

universal service legislation and
agreed that the present volunteer sys-

could be given this training annually.
