 When Darcy, the Bayonne' light weight, steps in the ring he will have since he last showed here in his con- test against Sapper Cohen at the Casino. Darcy, who is an ex-navy man, was lttached to the U. S. S. IAdiiSdS, at HIS 1dSL appearance hGTS, he left immediately after the bout for a cruise around the world on that boat and since then has boxed in every country of the universe, where the boxing game is known. He had one bout in Manila, Philippine Isl- ands, and defeated their champion in easy fashion. From there he was sent to Honolulu and won three bouts three U. S. Army champions station ed there. These three, Battling Suddineton, Benny Cohen and Bobby Moore, were all supposed to be cham pions there, but Darcy polished them | off in great shape, getting the decis ion over Suddington and Cohen and scoring a knockout over Moore in seven rounds. His next bout took place in San Diego, Cal, against Sailor Brown of the U. S. s. Ca1ifor- mia, who was stopped by Darcy in two rounds. He then came on to New York and since his arrival here on April 22, isas had seven bouts, win ming five by the knockout route, win hing the decision in two and losing the decision in one bout. Among those that he scored knockouts over are Dave Medar, Joe F1orio, Silent Began, and Johnny Downs. He gained decisions over Johnny Hayes, Ralph De Mostt and Joe Currie. Dar- | cy has improved wonderfully since he | last showed here and is sure to give the Waterbury battler a merry time
 in their ten round tilt on Monday

"I am | sure I can knock this fellow out if l I ever get another chance at him,
 declared Patsy. Should Dance gain | the decision or even draw with Darcy | it is likely that he and Patsy will be | matched for a future show here. I The consensus of opinion that the | main bout which will bring together Irish Johnny' Curtin and Jimmy | Burns will be one Of the best fights | ever witnessed in a local arena. While | the sports are inclined to favor Cur | tin, chiefly owing to his brilliant ring | record, many declare Burns will | spring a surprise. At any rate both | are scientific ring artists and fans are | sure to witness g fine bout with all | rough house" features eliminated.
