American heavyweight ( hampion, was the prize ring biggest money-maker in IH3O, according to the annual financial re port of his manager, Johnny Blick- ■ ley. Sharkey’s gross income from the i boxing business last year was reported at $218,000, including $178.000 from his bout with Mat; Schmeling in New York and $40,000 from 'his bout with Phil Scott in Florida. According to Buckley, Sharkey I expects to remain in the ring for ; another five years, at the end of which time he believes he will have drawn a total of about $10,000,000 as his share of gate receipts and (thus eclipse Jack Dempsev’s record. Os course this high estimate is based on Sharkey's conviction that I within a comparatively short time Ihe will be securely installed as i world heavyweight champion. o — Mrs. Ed Whitright is confined to her home on Monroe street with i the mumps.
