ANOTHER DARCY?

Australian Fight Fans Look Upon Urea A Logical successor to Martyr
 Over in Australia they believe they have found another Les Darcy in Tommy Uren, the new middleweight champion who recently defeated Jimmy Clabby and Eddie Mc0oorty. However. our Australian cousins should not be too optimistic about Uren just because he beat these two boxers. Everybody knows that Clabby as we'll as McGoorty arc more or less back numbers and fast descending the ladder even when Darcy beat them.
 One doesn't like to speak i'll of the departed, but the suspicion is rapidly krowing that Darcy would not have lasted very long if he had been per- mitted to meet some of tho foremost ring artists in America with whom he andously sought bouts.
