THORPE'S GREAT
ATHLETIC SKILL
Indian Takes ~"AII-Arounds"
with Mark Better Than Sheri-
dams Under Bad Conditions.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Against adj
verse weather conditions, on a wet
track and field, James Thorpe, the
Carlisle Indian who holds the Olym-
pic decathlon and pentathlon records,
won the alI-around athletic cham
pionship of America at Celtic Park
yesterday. sHe was first in seven of
the ten events which make up the
trying contest, and finished second to
John Bredemus, of Princeton, in The
other three-the pole vault. one-half
mile walk and 16-pound hammer
throw. His total, 7,476 points, is a
new record for this competition,
beating the previous record of Mar
tin Sheridan, made three years ago,
by 81 points
Bredemus was second, with 5000,
and B. Brodd, Irish-American A. c.,
the only other contestant, scored
1885 points.
In the running high jump Thorpe
cleared 6 feet rs inches, a new mark
in the all-around class. His other
winning marks were: 100-yard dash,

crowd was thunderstruck. Hardly
anyone knew what had happened
until Referee Billy job had counted
the man out. A sudden left-hand
hook on the point of the jaw sent the
Antipodean to the floor before he had
a chance to show what he could do.
1t was a lucky punch surely, and 1t
evidently surprised NcGoorty, VINO
stood in the middle of the ring look
ing at his fallen antagonist in open
mouthed establishment. Then, as
Smith. very groggy. staggered to his
feet at six counts, McGoorty rushed
in with a rignt-hand uppercut that
crashed against Smiths chin. Again
he fell heavily. The referee once
more tolled off the count. and 1t was
nine before the Australian staggered
to his feet. He reeled backward
across the ring, instinctively holding
up his hands to ward off the expected
onslaught, but before McGoorty could
administer the final wallop Jeh
stepped between the men and stopped
the one-sided bout.
Louis De Ponthieu, the lightweight
champion of France, gave a brilliant
exhibition of skill in a fast ten-round
bout with Tommy Gary, of Chicago.
Gary, strong and determined, had a
hard punch. but he found 1t difficult
to reach the nimble Frenchman.

Patsy Kline, the Newark feather
weight. refused to meet Packey HON.
mey in the scheduled ten-round bout
at the Garden A. c., New YORK, last
night. Hommey entered the ring as
a lightweight, weighing in at l9ZH2
pounds, stripped, while Kline tipped
the beams at 124. with all fighting
togs.
The crowd was not dissatisfied at
Kline's action, however, and Jimmey
Coffey. of New York, was secured.
Coffey made a monkey out of Hommey
throughout the entire mill. The latter
was willing to mix it, but CoHeS
long reach was much in evidence, n
he continually jabbed his opponent
with Iefts and rights. There was not
a minute that the boys were not
fighting.
Coffey proved a very capable supsti-
tute. and his performance with Hom-
mey was the best of the night. Young
StanZo, another local lad. was sched-
uled TO box in one of the siX-round
semi-fnals. but the management was
unable to secure a boy of his weight.
The star bout of the evening brought
together Dave Smith, champion mid
dleweight of Australia, and Eddie
McGoorty. of Oshkosh. Smith lasted
one minute and eighteen seconds.
The battle ended so suddenly mat the

ARONSON A. A. ATHLETIC
MEET ATTRACTS MANY

The athletic meet given by the
Aronson A. A. proved a great sue
cess. Although the weather was
threatening there was a great crowd
at the Second city Fairgrounds to
see the races and other games. In
the morning there were a five-mile
and a two-and-a-half mile race for
the boys. The winners of the five
mile race We're: Mr.. Benfer, of the
Third city playground. first: Mr..
Stamford, unattached. second;
Charles Baum, unattached, third.
and Joe Client, of the United
States battleship Michigan. fourth;
the time was 90 minutes. The
result of the Uncomfortable
mile race for the juniors was:
Charles Davis, of the Triangle A. c.,
first; Charles Allen. of the Fourth
city playground, second. and Sam
Kriesberg. of the Hercules A.. e.,
third; the time was 13 minutes.
In the afternoon there was a vol

Nearly 20 Minutes.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 3.-Joe Man
dot, the New Orleans lightweight, de-
feated Joe Rivers, Of Los Angeles, in
twenty rounds of fierce fighting at
Vernon yesterday. Mandot had the
better of every round but three and
Won the decision by a wide margin.
Rivers seemed a mere novice in the
hands of Mandot and showed to ad-
vantage only in the infighting. In the
closing rounds Mandot even o%utfought
him in the clinches. Rivers weighed
in at 1873, Mandot at 1871.
Mandot solved Rivers's defense
early in the bout, landing straight
lefts to the face almost continuously
without a return. In the eighth he
began rocking Rivers's head with
right and left swings, and in nearly
each one of the succeeding rounds he
followed this attack. He showed
great cleverness in blocking and
countering.

Hasha opened up and set after him,
and the two circled the track 1t q
terrific speed, leaving Peck far 20 the
real Hasha was just too late, how
ever, and crossed the line a half
length in the rear.
The second heat was much like the
first, and Seymour's final squirt was
too much for Hasha again. In the
third Eddie decided to adopt new
tactics, and started out to open a Zig
lead for himself. Some yards to the
good. he opened up a squirt on the last
lap, and succeeded in leading in Sey-
mour by several yards.
The final heat of the class b event,
in which West, Frank and Johnny
King, Brown and ~Flickenstein lined
up fol the start, kept the spectators
on edge throughout. The contestants
were closely punched throughout the
five miles. At the three-mile mari.
Brown lost his sprocket and chain,
but managed TO make his way from
the track without accident. Frank
King fla shed over the line a winner,
with Johnny King second and Flick
ensteIn third.
Seymour encountered engine trouble
in the six-mile free-for-all handicap
event, and had to be content with
third place. Both Hasha and Seymour
started from scratch, with Pay Peck
half a lap in front and the others a
whole lap. These three stars had a
pretty battle until the three-mile
mark was reached, when Seymour
was forced to drop behind a trihe be-
cause of his engine trouble. He was
never able to make up the distance
gained by little Hasha. Seymour,
however, led Peck over the tape by
two lengths, but this was not sutti
cient to offset the latter's handicap,
and he was awarded second place.
A special match race between
Weber and Seeelbach was substituted
for the New Jersey Club race. The
latter was called off because of "A

Close to 1000 persons braved the
threatening storms yesterday after
moor and turned out to witness the
Labor Day meet at the Vailsburg
Stadium otordrome.
The races were married only by the
refusal of Eddie Hasha, who has been
apparently unbeatable on the local
track, to meet Ray Seymour, the
Western hier, in what was expected
to be the feature race of the day.
When it was announced that Hasha
had refused to meet Peck in the
much-heralded special match race, a
a storm of protest arose from the
crowd.
No reason for Hasha's withdrawal
was given at the time, and and Ray
Peck was substituted to race Sey-
mour. Later the management de-
clared that Hasha had refused to
ride at the last moment unless his
peara money was doubled, and
they gave as his real reason that
he was afraid of the Western record
holder. This he holly denied, and
gave as his side of the argument
that no arrangements for the match
had previously been made, and that
the management tried to cut his
money in half at the last minute.
I'm not afraid to meet anybody"
he vigorously asserted.
Hasha and Seymour did meet in
four events, in the three heats of the
class A event and in the free-for-all.
Honors were evenly divided; Sey-
mour tool the first two class A heats
and Hasha took the third and the
fr~ee-for-all.
The real thrill of the meet came in
the first class A heat, Seymour,
Hasha and Peck started close IN the
order named, and held together Hntil
the last lap. Hasha stuck right next
to Seymour's real wheel, and SeN-
mour set a moderately fast pace.
Then when the bell rang for the last
lap Seymour uncorked a beautiful
burst of speed. and was yards ahead

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Sept, 3.-The
Tigers did not swat out twenty-five
base hits yesterday, neither did their
pitchers daub the enemy with a
Shiny coat OF kalsomine. but the Ben
gals showed their versatility against
wild Bill" Donovan's ex-Detroiters
and showed the Providence perform
ers an impregnable defense that inn
pressed the fans who saw the game
as the best exhibition seen on the
local arena this season.
Since Tooley drew down the regular
assignment at shortstop and got
working with Gagnier, the Tigers
have the very best infield in the
league. This pair, aanked by Eddie
Zimmerman and Swacina, are the
speediest combination in the league
when 1t comes TO turning out a double
play. and they come to the rescue OF
Tiger pitchers time and again in the
pinches.
With such support as the Tigers
gave their pitchers yesterday almost
any slab artist could win with foui
runs behind him to work upon.
The Tigers themselves were held
back from hitting with their usua
ferocity, because Of Moran's cleve
work ON the slab, his southpaw slants
