has abstract	John Robert Howe (* 1861 in Killarney, Australien; † 1. Juli 1920 in Blackall), auch Jackie Howe genannt, war ein Schafscherer, der den ersten Rekord im Schafscheren im Jahre 1892 aufstellte, als er 237 Schafe an einem Tag schor. Sein Wochenrekord lag bei 1437 Schafen. John Robert Howe war der Sohn von John Howe, einem Zirkusakrobaten und späteren Viehtreiber, und seiner Frau Loiuisa Stokes. Howe begann als Schafscherer gegen Ende von 1870 zu arbeiten, verbrachte eine Schersaison in Neuseeland und ließ sich in Blackall nieder. Er war römisch-katholisch und heiratete Margaret Alexandra Victoria Short am 24. April 1890. Er war außergewöhnlich muskulös und kräftig gebaut, sein Bizeps hatte einen Umfang von 43 Zentimetern und er wog 114 Kilogramm. Er war bereits zu Lebzeiten berühmt und präsentierte die ersten mechanischen Schafschermaschinen in Australien. Nach ihm ist das blaue Hemd der australischen Schafscherer Jacky Howe genannt. Er war ein aktiver Gewerkschafter, der sich am ersten Schafscherer-Streik 1891 und am zweiten Schafscherer-Streik 1894 beteiligte. Howe war Mitglied im Streikkomitee der Schafscherer-Gewerkschaft und in der Labour Party und er war ein guter Freund von Thomas Joseph Ryan, dem es erstmals gelang, als ein Mitglied der Australian Labor Party Premierminister von Queensland zu werden. (de) John Robert "Jackie" Howe (26 July 1861 (?) – 21 July 1920) was a legendary Australian sheep shearer at the end of the 19th century. He shot to fame in pre-Federation Australia in 1892 when he broke the daily and weekly shearing records across the colonies. Howe was born at Killarney near Warwick, Queensland. On 10 October 1892, Howe had shorn 321 sheep in seven hours and 40 minutes at Alice Downs station, near Blackall, Queensland. This was a faster tally than any other shearer had achieved before. In the week beforehand, Howe also set the weekly record, shearing 1,437 sheep in 44 hours and 30 minutes. Howe's daily record was beaten by in 1950, but Reick was using machine shears, while Howe's hand shears were little more than scissors. According to the Australian Dictionary of Biography, Howe's weekly record stood unbeaten as of 2005. In October 2015, Howe's record was reported as still unbeaten after 123 years. Howe was active during the shearer strikes of the 1891 and 1894, and was a committed trade unionist. After Howe's death, Queensland Premier T. J. Ryan said, in a telegram to Howe's widow, "I have lost a true and trusted friend and Labor has lost a champion". Jackie Howe was the subject of a book, Jack Howe: The Man and the Legend, by Barry Muir, and a bronze statue, on display in Blackall. Jackie Howe's father, Jack Howe, was also a shearer and a clown with La Rosier's circus, claiming to be the first clown to travel the Australian colonies, and was town-crier in Warwick. Jackie Howe owned a pub, The Barcoo Hotel, in Blackall, Queensland. There is now a statue there of him holding a sheep. (en)
