Frank Darcy May Suro His Late rother's Record Retent information from = Aus- tralia is to the effect that the fans there expect much of Frank Darcy Some ye more, enthusiastic ad- mirers #0 far as to predict that he will equal and perhaps surpass his brother' wonderful record of achievements. Frank Darcy, who is known as "Frosty," is eighteen years old and was the next eldest to Les. He is a 142-pounder. - Although he has not heen boxing very long, he al- ready has shown promising ability. To date he has had eleven matches, eight of which he won. He ogy 2d three defeats on goints. In is most brilliant perform- early tries, Frank's ance thus far was on November 28th last, when he knocked out Dan. Tierney. This in Australia was considered a sensational feature. Tierney was a boxer of good repu- tation and experience; the superior of Darcy in this respect. He was the runner-up in one of: "Snowy" Baker's big tournaments in 1916, winning seven 'fights to get in the final 'match' with Jack Clunes, who later came to this country. Tierney had been boxing about six years, and never was knocked out until Darcy flattened him. "Frosty" is described as a boxer something on his brother's style; not particularly clever, but a rip- tearing, real mixer with a stiff wal- Jop. That he has a punch is indicat ed by -his Rnockous record, which shows that he stopped four of the eight men he has defeated. .

Ross' Offer For Champion : Steeplechaser, ° That J. K. L. Ross, of Montreal, is leaving no stone unturned in his ef- forts to corner the thoroughbred racing market in both divisions of the sport, both on the flat and over the jumps, is shown byb his endeavors to purchase The Brook, the greatest steeplechaser in America, for which he is said to have offered $15,000.

The Landon Telegraph says: Be- fore the war far too many county matches were played, and some counties ranked as first-class with no real pretensions to the title. There is little fear, however, of too many fixtures in "1919, when we shall hope ito see cricket played not for averages but for the game. The county cap- tains can do very much by dint of example and precept, if they have the root of the matter in them, as we are sure they will have. Cricket is the noblest game in the world, let the second best be what it may. All whi are jealous for the old tradition, which has been splendidly maintain- ed during the war by the Public Schools, will rejoice to think that next summer the flags will be flying on the old pavilions and the cards again show "the order of going in." And whether the ball beat the bat, or the bat heat the ball, may cricket flourish, and its realm extend!
