LES DARCY OUT
in FIRST ROUND
Governor Whitman Administ-
erS Solar PleXuS Blow TO
Austrian Fighter

Albany, y. Y, March 9.-LeS Darcy,
the Australian boxer who was pre-
vented by Governor Whitman from
appearing in the prize ring in New
York State, obtained an audience with
the Governor yesterday in an effort to
induce him to change his mind.
The fighter came to Albany with
Hugh Grant Browne. a boxing bout
promoter, and Fred a. Wenck, chair
man of the State Athletic Commits
sion. Darcy and Browne went imme-
diately to the executive mansion for
the conference.
After the conference the Governor
announced he had learned nothing
which could induce him to change his
position. This, he said, was fully out
lined in his statement directing the
state Athletic Commission to prohibit
the Darcy-Dillon bout.
In the statement the Governor said
he had been informed that Darcy was
runaway from his own country. that
in disguise and under an alias he left
his native land because he was afraid
10 fight in the cause for which his
Fellow countrymen are sacrificing their
lives" and that ''he prefers to give a
brutal exhibition at some personal risk
for a purse of $4,000"
Darcy told me-" the Governor said
yesterday, that he had tried to enlist
about three years ago, but was not
permitted because he was too young,
that he had not tried to enlist recently
and that he became twenty-one years
of age after he left Australia. What he
told me merely confirms my belief
that he is in this country evading mill
itary service. He asked permission to
participate in at least one bout here
so it could be demonstrated that he
would not be party to a brutal ex-
hibition.' l declined to grant his re-
quest" In other words Darcy was
Classed as a quitter.

Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton and

growth in practically every place

DRAFT GIVES BOOST
TO SALES OF SEDANS
Chaufeurs Taken. Owners Want
Car They Can Drive.

Throughout the country there Is a
decided trend among automobile buy
ers toward the type of closed car
that can be driven by the owner him
self. Motor car authorities attribute
this to the fact that chauffeurs. young
men as class, are in a large pro-
portion subject to the selective draft.
Owners who are deprived of a driver
see relief in the convertible Sedan
and they are in sufficient number to
give a recognizable impulse to the
demand for cars OF this type.
I'VE are already experiencing a de-
mand from owners who have lost or
are going to lose their chauffeurs,"

Is so easily handled that no woman
finds the work exhausting. 1t Is easily

lection against rain without the

tains. and absence of a lot of work

demand. so that where chauffeurs
have been summoned, touring Sedan
provides way out of the difficulty.

Then came my days of grief and
