New York. March 30.--Fandom is on tip
toes for the opening of the season, now
not two weeks off Training camp reports
and early spring games with brushes
are fine in their way, but when the real
piece de resistance is about ready Tor
the table such kickshaws pull on the appe-
tite. which cooks the stony food furnished
by box scores of championship games.
For a few days however, training camp
gossip must suffice.
OF all the gossip there is none of more
general interest than that which centers
about Jim Thorpe, the famous Indian ath-
lete.
Whether Thorpe is a good baseball
player or a misfit as a candidate Tor
major league honors has been hard TO
fathom from the conflicting reports sent
out from Texas regarding his ability
When the first news was flashed from
the spring training camp we got the I'M
preston that Thorpe was one of the great
est finds that baseball ever produced,
and we looked forward TO the day when
the umpire would step in front of the
grandstand, remove his little cap and an
nounce. Ladies ana gentitIltii, ihoiPe
pitching, Meyers catching"
Then came that announcement from the
committee on gloom saying that Thorpe
was one of the rawest recruits that Nc
Graw had ever picked up, and that as a
ball player the Indian would make a
good piano mover. But today the gloom Is
once more dispelled, and those who are
looking forward to The day when they
can see Thorpe disport in a Giant uni
form again take heart The correct dope
appears to be that he is good player
and has the makings of star.
In recent game with the Waco
(Texas) team Thorpe replaced Merkle at
first base He filled the position in fault
less STYLE grabbing the grounders that
came his way and fielding the balls
thrown to him by the other infielders with
as much pep as a veteran. He also dis
played great speed on the bases and
cracked out three solid hits, one of them
being a tripe.- These are facts attested
to by those who saw the game. OF course,
the Thorpe critics may figure that he had
an off day and overplayed himself, but
that kind of playing is good enough for
me.
Every baseball player expects to get his

New York, March 3o.(Special.) )-They
do come back once in away for little
while anyhow. Abe Atel is the latest tc
demonstrate this. It looked for time as
though Abe was firmly anchored in the
down and OUT division. When Ollie KIRK
fought him to standstill in six rounds
it did not seem then that there was any
chance for a come back. Abe, however
likes the jungle Of the purses and went tc
work in a systematic way, and when nc
was in condition, on the principle that the
hair of the dog is good for the bite. he
went after the man who had shown him
and Abe now can join the Battling Nelson
class of has beens'' who have nearly
come back, which class Bat declares still
is able to add TO the bank deposits in a
fairly satisfactory manner.
1t is just possible that a new middle
weight champion will be elected during
the coming summer Frank Klaus, the
Pittsburger who recently defeated Billy
Papke for the European title, has an
nounced that he will return to this coun-
George Carpenter scheduled for April II,
1913 When Klaus arrives it should not
take him long to find out just how he
compares with the few contenders who
remain to dispute the title with him. But
even If Klaus is able to establish his un-
disputed supremacy. he will never be a
popular champion. Interest in this di-
vision is not likely to revive until a new
crop of 15s pound men spring up to re-
place the present supply
Klaus lost favor in this country by en-
gaging in series of monotonous affairs
that dsgusted the spectators. According
to reports from Paris his recent battle
with Papke was a severe blow to boxing
in the French capital, although most of
the blame is placed on Papke's shoulders.
Still, although Klaus did as Papke, to
wrestle and maui around in the clinches,
instead Of boxing openly
Eddie McGoorty obviously is now going
back fast, otherwise he might be expect
ed to furnish strong opposition to the
title claim of Klaus. The man from
Oshkosh, had he lived up to his early
promise might have become a popular
champion At any rate, his tactics are a
great Improvement on the hold and hit
style as exempifled by Klaus, Papke and
