ARKEY ALWAYS A TERROR WANTS TO GO “OVER THERE” | | A Born Adventurer and Fighting Man From His Youth, Ex- | Sailor Would Prove Fine Boxing Instructor for Troops— | His Greatest Battle Was With Jim Jeffries for the Cham- pionship, Which He Lost by Hairline Decision. By Robert Edgren. Copyright, 1918, by The Press Publishing Go. (The New York Evening World). al OM SHARKEY has decided that he must get into the big fight across the sea, and has volunteered his services as a boxing instructor for troops. It is like Tom to want to go “over there.” He has been an adventurer and a fighting man trom his youth up, and his forty-five years haven quelled his turbulent opirtt. Tom left his home in Ireland when he was twelve and became an able seaman on his first voyage to China. He was a two-fisted sailor, from all accounts. When he went into the American Navy, a fow years later, he took up boxing as a favorite q@ort. Tom hed many a hard fight just for the fun of it, and soon de veloped into the best heavyweight on the seas. When he began fighting ashore, while stationed at Honolulu, Tom won eighteen battles in a row, each with a knockout and few opponents lasted more than two rounds. He was a terror from the start. ‘Tom was an amazingly hand mange———————————————————— to deat. His greatest, gamest and/ round.

Many sidelights of the race gave an interesting illustration of bow races are wou, how they are lost, and how the result might have been changed under different conditions.

Sande was little of no help to him when the drive for the mastery begun. Up to the time the race had nar- rowed down to a question which horse would “crack” under the terrific strain of pace thiough the stretch, when tho hoart of each horse was pumping the blood like mad and the lungs were contracting and expanding like a blacksmith’ bellows, Sande had ridden @ well-judged race.
