Zin illlleinuvietnt ZF. ,Ashley Sparks Assistant Master Cl907f1914JJ Died October 29, 1942 Aged 60 years AN APPRECIATION To the Editor of Black and Red: Having for many years had the privilege of being associated with the late F. A. Sparks in many a wellffought game on your beautiful grounds, one readily sympathizes with his expressed wish that his ashes be strewn over the pitch he loved so wellg and recalls the sentiment underlying the old song Twenty Years Ago, as one Qld Boy writes to another, the closing lines beingg And when our time shall come, Tom, and we are called to go, I hope they'll lay us where we played Some twenty years ago. May his spirit hover over the grounds for many years affording an inspiration to the cricketers of tomorrow, not only to emulate his prowess on the field, but he would surely wish that the best tra- ditions of the game be maintained fwith the unwritten code which governs it, viz. the spirit of fair playj laying the foundation of char' acterg and thus equipped face up to the sterner game of life, which all too soon in these days it may be, all are called upon to play. y Incog. 8
