NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-John Re1sler'
known as John the barber" prob
ably has paved the way for staging
Les Darcy's first bout. His offer OF
$4,000 TO the Australian to take on
Billy Miske or Charley Weinert looks
so good to Darcy that, on the advice
Of Tex Richard, he probably will &C
cept 1t.
If Reisler has the cash and can pro-
duce it, there is little question that
Darcy's name will be signed to ar
ticles of agreement within a few days.
Billy Miske already has agreed ro
his end OF the Arrangement.
Rickard is not in a position to stage
a bout at present. He has not OBJ
tanned a lease on Madison Square Gar
den, without which it Is impossible to
get a license for bouts In that struc-
ture. He saw that Darcy was likely
to lose time by waiting until some
thing happened and advised him to
accept Reisler's offer If 1t was any
thing but conversation cash. Reisler
met Richard and Darcy last night
and flashed five one thousand dollar
bills which he offered to deposit as
guarantee that he would produce
the other $4,000 before time for the
bout. 1t is also believed Al Mccoy is
being seriously considered as prob
able trial horse for Darcy. The clum-
sy Brooklynite who floored George
Chip for the count and came into
possession Of the woDbiy middle
weight crown, is the logical man to
meet the overseas visitor. Mike Don
lin is quietly trying to cinch this
bout and others have begun negotia'
lions. 1t is believed only few days
now will elapse until Darcy has signed
for a fight.

Not Adjustable.

With the exception of the tapered
roller-bearng, anti-friction bearings are
not adjustable, and require replacement
or regrinding when worn out. Because
of the important positions which they
occupy in the car 1t is imperative that
replacement be made as soon as wear
has become evident, but if the car has
been properly equipped the bearings
will last several seasons. Occasional in
spection is necessary, and, of course
any noise which originates in the bear
ings demands immediate attention.
There appears to be an erroneous be-
lief that ball or roller bearings require
no fabrication. and that they operate
just as we'll when dry. Such belief is
far from the truth. Oil or grease is not
only necessary as lubricant, but also az
a protective agent to prevent rust. and
by surrounding the bearing to prevent
the entrance of dust or grit. Only the
best mineral oil or light grease should
be used for this purpose. Contrary to
the general opinion, graphite in grease
even though finely pulverized. causes
the bearing to wear out more rapidly
and does not improve the running
qualities of the bearing or reduce the
friction.

OUTPUT of Autos Doubled.

The production of automobiles in this
country during the year ending August
l. 1916, was approximately 100000
cars, or more than double the produc-
ton in 1915, which was 100000 cars.
In 1914 the output was only $4,000
cars. Lockwood Barr, in Il letter to
the Magazine Of Wall street. says he
believes. from statistics gathered from
manufacturers, that the output in 1917
may run to 100000 and possibly to
100000 cars. He bases this estimate
on figures obtained from manufacturers
in reply to letters of inquiry.
