possessor of a fortune of (250.000,
became an inmate of the La gun a
Honda home San Francisco's haven
for aged, infirm and destitute, today.
He still carries his head high, his

shoulders are square but he's broke,
this old-time ring gladiator who
came out of the United States navy
in the last century to fight them all.
He'll be 65 years old next September.
Sharkey the sail or man boasted he
"wasn't afraid of any man alive."
He fought John L. Sullivan, Jamet.

At the peak of his career Sharkey

TERS TO PLAY
Tl
Med ford's Crater will receive their
final test before the Southern Ore
gon league inaugural next Sunday,
when they clash with the reputedly
strong Hilt, Cal. team of the North
ern California circuit at the high
school park today. Opening pitch will
be at 2:30 sharp.
Manager Wally Rlckert announced
that either Ray Erlokson, Larry Pep
per or BUI Rathke would start on the
mound for the locals, with Cliff
"Chief" McLean, heavy-slugging In
dian catcher, back of the plate.
With one win and one loss In pre
season encounters to date, the cra
ters will be gunning for a .667 per
centage to catapult them into the
Southern Oregon league pennant
squabble. Two weeks ago, the Craters
dropped a 10 to 4 decision to Belltng
ham of the Western International
league, but came back last Sunday
to upset the Klamath Falls Red Sox,
5 to 3. behind the great hurling of
Bill Rathke, and the slugging of Paul
"Hoosier" Hoffard. Manager Rlckert
is tentatively planning to start Rath
ke against Ashland In the circuit
opener next Sunday, so today's hurl
ing chores will probably be divided
between Erlckson and Pepper, both
young righthanders.
Hilt has not yet seen action, and
little Is known regarding the club,
other than the fact that they are
figured one of the teams to beat In
the Northern California league. Arn

Medford 's lineup will be the same
that whacked Klamath Falls last

mound for Oakland after the Beavers
bunched hits off him in the second
