CALLS SHARKEY A JOKE
Thomas Burns Himself a GOSH Kids
EX-Efghter.

Calgary, Alberta, Aug. 15.-"That's a
joke said Tommy Burns, exchampion
heavyweight boxer, discussing a dis
patch from New York relative to Tom
Sharkey's ambition to get back into the
ring, and expressing a willingness to
meet Burns.
''Sharkey was a great man in his
day" continued the former champion,
''but you can't always be great. If he
really means it, I might meet him if the
financial inducements were strong
enough. At that I wouldn't care to box
in public, for the public don't care
much for one-sided bouts. Just take a
glance at the record books and you will
see that even Jack Munroe beat
Sharkey in Philadelphia, when the New
Yorker tried to come back before.
