INDIANS DO WELL
IN ALL ATHLETICS
BENDER, LoNGBoAT MT. PLEASANT AND OTHERS
PROVE THAT THE RED SKIN. AFTER ALL,
is GOOD FOR SOMETHING.

No nation since the gaseous nebula
became a planet called earth, has
produced, in proportion 10 his per
centage OF people, more famed and
gallant athletes than the American
indian and he is not confined TO any
one realm of sport.
Chief Albert Bender OF the Attn.
letes, a Carlisle graduate, is one OF
the best pitchers who ever trampled
a hurting heap. and for the Athletics
he has won his share of games IN
three pennant races, 1902, 1903 ana
1910. and has won a game in the
worlds series this season. He is, &C
cording TO Ira Thomas, the greatest
speed pitcher in the country. and the
cutest curve finger in either league.
Bender is one OF the best shots In
the land, and he is TO work for one
OF the big gun factories this winter.
Chief Myers OF the New Yorks is
rated as a catcher who will in few
seasons amply fill the shoes OF Roger
Bresnahan. late Giant, now manager
OF the Cardinals Myers has been a
big help TO Manager McGraw. and in
addition to being a backstop who,
with Indian vile, battles the best bats
man, he is a sticker of no mean rank.
He greatly aided in beating the High
landers in the New York state cham
pionship.
Soxalexis, the Indian outfelder, OF
Cleveland. was one of the baseball
players who retired. went back TO the
mines. before he reached his prime.
He was as good a thrower as ever
~. hn craF
the plate, and a corking hitter and a
splendid man on the bases.
Motor cars are out OF the reach or
desire OF most Indians, but in Tobin
De Hymel. who pilots huge racing
car, the sons OF the forest have as
faultless and daring driver as ever
entered a curve, rushing like the
wind ablast.
De Hymel has been driving only a
short time, but his thrilling turn-tak-
ing in the Vanderbilt and Paramount
park race, is still talked of along
Gasoline Row by the Philadelphians.
Feared BY Colleges.
On the carpeted green the Indians
are feared by every college in Ameri-
ca that plays them, and, as a matter
of fact, Princeton and Penn alone, OF
the big four, meet the redskins on the
football field.
Mount Pleasant was one Of the best
uuarterbacks who ever tramped a
gridiron. This lean, heetfooted fellow
was almost on a par with Vincent
Stevenson, except that he did not
have the band Of marvels in front OF
him and built about him which was
the fortune OF the greatest of all
quarterbacks.
Pete Houser, the Juggernaut line
ramming fullback; Bemis and Haw-
ley Pierce, the great linemen OF the
Carlisle team, and Wauseka, the
tumbling ball who tore up the lines
OF Penn and Harvard, were all
famous Carlisle Indians.
Frank Hudson, the greatest kicker,
not barring Pat O'Dea. Marshall Rey-
nolds. Billy Bull or John De Witt, who
ever hoisted a spiral, was an Indian.

known to football, and one of his best
