Then came his fatal step. one more

Ihen came his fatal step, one more
disastrous than running away from
conscriptlon-he listened to the ad-
vice of false friends and instead OF
climbing into the ring and fighting as
nm cNpcctant public had hoped, he ac-
cepted n vaudeville contract TO pick
up some easy money. That was the
beginning of his downfall. Disgrun-
tied managers and disappointed
public began to complain. Those who
had been shouting his praises the
loudest row became his greatest ira
lucers. II was not until then that the
ugly word "slacker" and the still
more disgraceful traitor" were ap-
piled to him. When cinally he dis
covered his error in going into vaude-
vile and attempted to regain his pres
tige by fighting, he found the way
blockei. Perhaps inspired by political
ambitions as Darcy's friends have
charged, the governor of New York
branded him "A Stacker" and refused
to permit him to box in New York. A
miy-up over managers barred him
from Minnesota. Taking up the
bounding business the governor Of
Louisiana told him he could not fight
in New Orleans.

Tennessee, where, driven to dis
traction by the harpings of his
enemies, he begged OF the gov
ernor OF that state the chance to
vindicate himself in the ring, to
lay up u little money for his
mother, promising to prove that
he was no Stacker, that he was
not afraid to face the German
guns, by becoming n citizen of
the United States and fighting
under the Stars and Stripes. For
the first time he found just ex-
ecutive. He took out his first
naturalization papers, enlisted in
the aviation reserve corps and be-
gan training to enter the ring.

Then he was stricken. He suffered
complete nervous breakdown. His
once powerful right arm became prac-
tically paralyzed He was forced to
offer his left instead of his right hand
in shaking hands. Physicians at the
Memphis hospital where he went were
at loss to determine the cause of his
trouble. A defective tooth was sus-
pected and it was EXTRACTED. Still he
did not improve. Then he underwent
an operation for the removal Of his
tonsils in the hope that this would
eliminate his ailment. He seemed to
improve for a few days and then sud
denly he was stricken to his bed by
what was diagnosed as pneumonia.
There he died.
