lSHARKEY FACES
TEST TUESDAY
| AT ARMORY A. A.

Boston, March 16--Jack Sharkey OF
Roxbury, who may be battling Jack
Dempsey for the worlds champion
ship inside of year, will receive the
acid test when he clashes with Eddie
Record of Nashua, n. H.. in a ten
found bout at the Armory y. AS
show at the Grand Opera House on
Tuesday night.
Sharkey, 1872 pounds and six feet
tall, shapes up much like Dempsey.
Many keen pudges of ring affairs
who have seen Sharkey in action do
not hesitate in declaring he is as
promising right now as Dempsey was
when he first started to batter his
way to the front ranks of his boxing
division.
Sharkey is the former heavyweight
champion of the navy. He proved
unbeatable while in the service,
Since joining the ranks of the pro-
fessionals, the former sailor has con-
tinued his wild run of victories. The
three men he has met in Boston
rings have been punched out of the
picture in impressive style.
Sharkey punches with his left and
right hands equally we'll. In this
respect he is much like Dempsey who
can knock out an opponent with
OiehiNi ilC SlNSlbSC IlCdNN
weight relies almost entirely upon
the power of his right hand to win.
Sharkey will be opposed by one of
the toughest heavyweights ip the
country when he collides with Rec
ord. The latter is a rugged, two
handed fighter and has been sweep
ing his way through the ranks Of the
opposition.
Record recently scored two i'm
pressive' victories over Whitley AL
len of Hyde Park. The bouts were
damned with thrills. II Record wins
ever Sharkey. he will be in line for
matches with the leading men of his
weight. in this country.
There is also great interest in the
semi final of eight rounds which will
bring together Ted Coolidge of Man.
chester, n. III. and Jack Mcclellan of
Somervllle. Coolidge is great
runchcr, Mcclellan master boxer.
This pair should furnish torrid
mill.
Young Nolan Of England and
Charley Costello of Weymouth will
box eight rounds as will Mike Man
dot of Cambridge and Charley Flan-
ogan of Dorchester.

Of Being Sounded
On Big Fight Films

Baltimore. March 1U.-Amos
Woodcock, L. 8. District Attorney,

lures in an effort to have them
shown in moving pictures in Balti-
more. 1t was learned today. Mr..
Woodcock said he was interviewed
on the subject in October or No
vembcr. 1922.
The promoter wished advance
knowledge OF the amount of fine
that would be imposed for the first
showing of the pictures. He also
wished this fine to suffice for fur
ther infringement.
The name Of TITS man has slipped
my memory" MIR. Woodcock said.
HE wanted me or somebody In my
office to name in advance what fine
would be imposed ON the producers
OF the picture.
THE man suggested that the pic
lures might be shown and one fine
imposed. After this, he suggested,
the pictures could be continued to be
shown without interference OF the
federal prosecuting officers OF fur
Their fines.
II quickly cut short this interview
by telling the man that / did not
prosecute that way: that should he
be guilty Of breaking the law rela-
tive to showing the pictures and
their transportation. ] would prose-
cute him to the full extent OF the
law. / made 1t clear that he would
make himself liable for further
prosecution each time the pictures
were displayed. ain absolutely

Side of Cliff Reveals
Prehistoric Skeleton

Lewiston. Idaho. March 1G.-A.
PA huge skeleton, believed to be
that OF prehistoric human being,
has been discovered in the Salmon
river country, south of here, by two
members of the state highway de-
partment who have brought their
find to this city. The lower jaw and
vertebra will be sent TO the Smith
sonian Institution at Washington. p.
c.. for analysis as to the probabIe
date OF existence.
The bones were found in the side
OF a cliff at depth estimated to be
30 feet. Nearly the entire skeleton
was recovered. the excavators pro-
ceeding with more care after deter
mining that the find might prove to
be of scientific value.
Measuring more than eight feet
In height and possessing numerous
strange features. the skeleton has
aroused widespread interest. Three
physicians who examined Il pro-
nounced IL to be that of woman.
Belief that the person was OF a
herbivorous race has been expressed,
owing to the peculiar formation Of
the jaws and teeth. Both the upper
and lower jaws have only 10 teeth
each and all are intact.
