The grsndstand broke into cheers aS Joe Jackson and his Cronics of long ago stood with bald heads re- fleet ng a warm sun.
 Twenty-nine years ago Joe Jack son was just coming into his own as 6 big country baseball star. He could walloe the horsehide to all corners, could field and throw and dash along the charted paths with abandon--and without ssloes.
 Today Joe Jackson, his cycntful though fatetul baseball past a mem ory, is too old, too fat, too slow to participate further. He makes a living by operating a liquor store, 14 miles from Greer.
 Joe played left field for that time he was serving notice in vivid time re was serving notice in vivid fashicn of what he was to be in the next decade But. as he gath cred with the nine others with whom he played in those days, he was just another of the boys.

No old-timer of the prize ring need ever fear going on bread line in Chicago.
 The Chicago Old-Time fighters Association has been formed to pre- vent any such circumstances.
 Its object is to raise fund from which indigent brxers of bygone days can receive aid. Some of them dcn't need it, but lots of them do. Besides, the old timers figure their organization is most worthy one
 that they have club in which they can huddle and talk over bat ties in which they pioneered boxing history.
 The organization plans to have a bill introduced in the Illinois Leg islature calling for promoters to give one per cent of their receipts to the fund for destitute glovers, and boxers a similar bit of their purses. Such an arrangement ex- ists in Pennsylvania.
 Geeorge G ard dner, now white haired and 60, second world cham pion to rule the light-heavyweight division, is president of the Chicago association. Little Phil" Collins, onetime featherweight star, now a referee, is treasurer Vice Presidents are Tommy White, once a terror among the featherweights; Buddy Ryan, old-time welterweight, and Jimmy Barry.
 Remember the name-Jimmy Bar ry? He is somewhat shriveled but keen-eyed old man now, nearly 70 years old. He was unconquerable as world bantamweight champion just before the turn of the century,
 Seven champions who arose from Chicagos streets in the fading past still are living there. Besides Barry, there are: The famed Battling Nell son, Johnny Coulon, bantamweight title-holder; George and Jimmy Gardner, light-heavyweight an welterweight respectively; Harry Forbes, bantamweight; Buddy Ryan welterweight and Jack Root, light heavyweight.
