Lima Sports Leader Dies
Lima lost one of its most colorful sports figures Wednesday when Arthur Elmer Marshall, 82, of 434 W. Kibby-st, died of a heart attack.
Mr. Marshall collapsed in a downtown sandwich shop and was pronounced dead on arrival at St. Rita's hospital at 2:30 p.m.

He was a member of the Modern Woodmen of America lodge and the National Trapshooters-assn.
Born May 30, 1868, in Perrysburg, Ind., he was a resident of Lima for 60 years.
Survivors include a son, Ralph S. Marshall, 118 1/2 S. Elizabeth-st; a daughter, Mrs. C. L. Laughlin, 1007 E. Eureka-st; two grandsons, Marshall Phillips, 434 W. Kibby-st, and Donald Laughlin, 1007 E. Eureka-st; four brothers, Alan and Ulrey, both of Silver Lake, Ind.; Judd of Mentone, Ind., and Lewis of Laketon, Ind., and one great-grandchild.
