OF LES
 DARCY'S PUNCH
 IN HIS MUSCLES
Australian Heavyweight Tissues Gives Him the Greatest Hitting
 Since KetCheII.

The reason for Les Darcy's 20 knockouts out of the thirty-sevcn fights was explained when the big Australian middlewcight, the most talked-of fighter today, now in New York, stripped to the waist and exposed the most wonderful set of fighting muscles in the ring today.
 Not so bulgy and lInotted, per haps as those of Bob Moha or Jack Dillon, whose muscles have caused them to be somewhat muscle-bound and hindered their ability. Dar- cy's muscles combine power and agility and the ideal for the fight CT.
 They have the same ease and grace as the muscles which made Joe Walcott the greatest welter- weight of all time and combine the strength of the sinews of Bob Fitz- simmons, who possessed one of the most terrific punches of them all.
 The hitting muscles in the shoul- ders are particularly well deYel- oped. There is where Darcy gets the punch that lattened George Chip, Eddie McGoorty and almost score of others.
 Les Darcy may be described as a fit successor to Stanley Ketchell the last great fighting middle weight
 Darcy is the greatest fighter who has come from Australia since Bot Fitzsimmons sailed from sydney ir the '9O's. Theer is a resemblancC between the two men, not Dhysica however.
 Darcy's great strength, as that of Fitzsimmons, is due primarily tC l his early training in a blacksmith shop. Darcy began his apprentice ship shoeing horses at Is. Tho

AnSlUers to FanS.

So many questions have been re- ceived by the movie man lately that they will all have to be answered in a bunch and you can pick yours out. that is if time has been found to give the correct dope to your particular question:
 Mary Pickford is now on the Pa cifc Coast, preparing for her new picture. Mary Miles Minter is in Santa Barbara. Valeska Suratts name may be or has been been Mary, but you cant prove it by me. I know that years ago she was q milliner in Indianapolis. Myrtle Stedman's directory age is given at .26. Olga Petrova does not appear with Paramount until next May. Blanche Sweet is not yet identified with her 1917 producing company. Yes, the Japanese. Sessue and Tsuri are man and wife and not brother and sister as you supposed. Doro- thy Glsh was born in Dayton, O., in 1898. so figure her age out your self. Marie Doro is 31. Yes, Gene vieve Hamper and Robert, Mantell are married. 1 quite agree with you that this fine Shakespearean actor is not a pleasing picture char acter

At the Coliseum.

Instead of "A Million a Minute, !" the bill at the Coliseum was changed to "A Half Million Bribe,' with Hamilton Reyelle and Mar guerite Snow in the leading parts. Just so that there was some men tion of a million" nc one seemed to care. Metro has seldom made more pleasing picture than this one. Marguerite Snow plays an emotional role with fine sincerity. The situations are cleyerly manipu- lated and the man one considers the villain suddenly becomes hero and explains most satisfactorily how his villainy was really a mask to protect man and woman.
 Earl Gray, the clairyoyant, proves q strong drawing card and his answers to questions and his other vaudeville acts are pulling the people to She Coliseum, cold weather notwithstanding. The pie ture and man bill is on tonight and Mir. Gray will give Bellmar's slate test.

 New Programs.

Detectives or find them out stunts were involved in three of the new bills at Juneau movies yester- day. Hazel Dawn took the role of a detective at the Dream and Lil- Han Walker did a little sleuthing on her own account at the Or Dhcum. At the Coliseum two of the characters "soft shoed" and if the King at the Palace had engaged a good bunch of secret service men he would have been better off.

 Fitzsimmons turned his horse shoeing into an asset, even after he had won the heavyweight cham pionship.
 In vaudeville engagements he ap- pearcd with setting of an old blacksmith shop with it's forge and anvil and many fans now have min iature horseshocs made by Fitz, which were passed down into the audience during his act.

 Armed with a flock of contracts, which he will distribute to q num- Der of his gifted athletes who are wintering in Seattle and Tacoma, Bob Brown, president of the Bea- yers has left Vancouver, B. C., for California. Before he returns he hopes to have the signatures of all the men to 1917 contracts.
 The Vancouver baseball boss travelled via Bellingham, visiting the bay city for the purpose of picking up Harry Follman'G con- tract. "Follman, I figure, will be the leagues leading backstop this season." declared Brown, and the fact that he will see Follamn hib- self indicates that Brown is sweet on the youngster.
 Proxy Brown does not believe that possible ho8tilities between the United States and Germany will stop baseball.
 "Of course, we will have to change our plans somewhat" he ob- served. "Wc would no doubt have a shorter schedule and there would be a general reduction of expenses, but so far as stopping the game, don't think such action will be necessary"
