AFTER CHANCE
AND BRESNAHAN
(By United Prens Leased Wire.)
CINCINNATI, 0., Not. ».—
President August Hermann of the
Cincinnati National league clut>
is negotiating today for the ser
vices of Roger Bresnahan of the
St. Louis Nationals and Frank
Chance, erstwhile manager of tne
Chicago Cubs, according to report
here.
THE^AfOMA TTMEB.
World's Greatest Athletic Stars On Gridiron Now
May Be Big League Baseba 1! Player Next Year
"Yon, sir, are the most wonder-!?
ful athlete in the world." <\
That Is what Gufltav, king of
Sweden, told James S. Thorpe,
the Sac and Fox Indian, who won \
the two all-around events for the
United States In th« Olympic
games. I!
If King Gustar could sec',
"Jim" Thorpe play football 'he
might add: "You are the most
wonderful football player in the
world." :.
To prove that the Swedish
king spoke straight Thorpe came
back home and won the A. A. U.
all-around championship,' break
ing all records, incidentally.
This year "Jim" Thorpe,
' picked last fall by Walter
Camp as one of the All-
American half backs. Is lead-
Ing the Carlisle Indian team,
which some critics declare la
the strongest eleven In . the
land.
Thorpe, as captain, Is rounding
out his career in a blaze of glory
—a fitting finale to his wonder
ful exploits on two continents,
during which he has been feted
by a king, eulogized by a presi
dent and royally greeted In two
of the greatest cities in America.
He Is the greatest halfback in
the world. Football Is his:spe
cialty. Although at home in
sprint. Jump, hurdle, shot put,
discus, vault or as a baseball
pitcher, he prefers football . and
Is conceded to rank as one of the
three or four greatest halfbacks
football-has produced. 20-V-.'
"With the ball tucked under his
arm, "Jim" Thorpe, In a broken
field, is a sight to arouse j the
most stoical football critic. An
eastern coach last fall said It was
worth .the price of ad miss top tq
see Thorpe go down the field with
the ball. : ' <a>l
t Breaking his own reoordp rJ»
Thorpe's specialty. He to con
stantly bettering $ his perform
ances, so it is to be expected that
he will close his work at Carlisle
this fall, with the most bfltHsit
football performances • ~ evgr wit*
nessed upon an American 7 grid
iron. He has started well, and
the Indians have .won every) ga^i«
they have played. .-■
The "big four", of eastern.,»
~ football fear do team as their . -
fear Carlisle. It Is » fore
■ gone conclusion, when the
1 Indians get the ball to an op
■. ponent's 40-yard line, .Thorpo
will kick a goal. In the ■
r- Harvard game last fall • he
booted the ball over the Red
'goal four time*, winning fur
,/; Carlisle. V .. ;>"■' v-s*
Thorpe Is a marvel because he
loves | the I game,;, puts all |of • his
characteristic I earnestness '■ Into. it
and because. his' work upon track
and field has fitted him for ex-"
trao^inary exploits in football.
It is seldom that a man stand
ing over six feet and weighing
190 pounds can run and jump
with the agility of a cat. Thorpe's
great speed, his uncanny dodging
and his weight, combined with
the way he follows interference,
makes him about the hardest
man to stop now play'ng foot
ball.
Take a look at Thorpe's record:
inn yards—lo 2-5 secouds.
120 yards hurdle—ls 3-5 sec
onds.
220 yards hurdle—2s seconds.
440 yards—(l2-3-5 geconds.
Mint put—43 feet 1 inch.
Discus—l 22 feet 8 Inches.
High Jump—o feet 4 inches.
Broad Jump—2B feet 3 inches.
Hammer throw —122 feet.

Thorpe has not only performed
brilliantly as an offensive and
defensive halfback and field goal
kicker, but he has shown that he
has something above his ears be
sides hair, by leading the Indian
eleven in brainy fashion this fall.
Thorpe will probably be seen as a
major league pitcher next sum
mer. Rumor is strong that he
will sign with an American or
National league club, and it is
probable he will be as successful
in the big league as he has been
upon the college diamond, grid
iron an 3 track, reflecting credit
upon that producer-general of
great Indian athletes, "Pop" War
ner of Cornell and Carlisle.

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
MILWAUKEE, Wis. — "I am
thoroughly disgusted with tne

letter:
"I have got all the money I
need, and have made no fooilsn
investments. Why should I con
tinue fighting? I am in earnest.
I will not sa^ when, but it will
not be long. Maybe, if Willie
Ritchie whips me this month, I'll
quit ten.'
The champion added that if he
beats Ritchies h© probably will
take on Joe Rivers and Joe Man
dot before retiring.

sailors from the Bremerton navy
yard when they meet on the uni

The Northwestern league moguls
are today advised that under tue
