gagement last night because Tom
Sharkey was billed as headliner
in an athletic exhibition at the Kan
sas City fall carnival
Nelson is acting as announcer for
the Jeffries-Johnson fight pictures

success as drawing card on the
first night of the carnival he noisily
withdrew. announcing that he
would return to work when Shark

him off till the gong. In the sixth
Kaufman had his opponent on the

ing could not deliver a knockout.
