Scarcity of Opponents Made Darcy's Earnings Small
STX A short time 1 learned that l.cs was not muMm; bis money In An

"I had several talks with Darcy and founds him 11 bin boy. anlnu to
make enough money to keep his mother and father free from llnancl.il
worry. 1 told him about the boxlnp clubs in America and how a sjood
tighter could make a fortune in a car, and this made quite an Impression.
He said nothlnp, however, until I arranged the second match with .Mi-
Ooorty. When we were signing up l.cs said:
" '1 want noil to be my manager from now on. .lack. Let's becin now."
"I told him I was managing- McGoorty, but h? said he didn't mind, tn
I went to West Maltlnnd, Darcj's home, where the contract was signed bv

"Before t left, however. I got passports for Darc ami inj -elf from
' Hie authorities. Thcie was no troilblc. but l.es was supposed to return
