TESREAU FAILS
To KEEP RECORD

Baseball is fun of upsets, as the
records show Prior to the opening

that Big JEFF Tesreau. of the Giants,

up a string Of consecutive victories.

Braves. getting driven from the slab

first appearance in a relief role al

hind and win out.
Tesreau undoubtedly will win a
great number of games for the Nc
Grawites this years. and, possibly. may
surpass his 1912 record. There is one
record he made in 1912. however, that
he cannot possibly equal, even though
the season be still in its infancy. That
record relates 10 home runs. Last year
only one National league player made
homer off Big jeff. who worked
in 243 innings, equivalent to twenty
seven complete games. on Tesreau' S
first two appearances on the slab this
season he labored for just seven stan
zas and in that time was located for
two four-baggers. John Titus was the
lone National Lacquer who clouted for
the circuit of Tesreau last season. the

Thorpe Incident Stirs Even Pion-

LONDON, Jan. S0.--British sport.
Ing circles were gasping today over
the revolutionary proposal, by the
south London Harrfers' club that the
next Olympic games, to be held In
Berlin In 1916, shall be open to pro-
fessionals as well as amateurs.
President Willis. of the Harrie,s,
who prefaces his remarks by~ saying
that the organization was the pioneer
In amateur athletics in Great Brfain,
made the proposal at a dinner, that
professionals be allowed TO compete
in the international contests. He did
not refer to the Thorpe incident, but
1t was plain that II was that which In

been telling us that since Pat first
boxed a preliminary at Windsor two
years ago Sometimes Pat has show

not.

one of Pats chief diffrculties in the
past has beea that he has lost his
head when hard pressed. This he
absolutely refused to do, except In
the final round when he had the mis-
taken idea that he was going to get
something by trying to mix with
Brown in his weakened condition,
rather than staving him OF. II Pat
had been able to hold Pal at bay In

But stalling is one thing that
Drouillard doesn't know. He battles

his head and swings like a Dutch
windmill when he does SO.
The fans were wondering OF
Browns fight with Jack Redmond at
Milwaukee, Monday evening, In which
he stopped Jack In seven rounds OF
terrific fighting, had its effect on him.
He was apparently well prepared for
the best Pat could offer but his bout
two nights before might have weak

Pats future looks particularly
bright after last night. With Brown
being looked upon as a suitable op-
ponent for Joe Rivers, there Is no
reason why Drouilard shouldn't com
mand the attention OF the topnotch-
ers.
There was variety Of stun to
"prelim" the main go. Rube May
had to quit at the end OF the fifth
round of his bout with Dave Daniels
of Flint. II was announced that May
had broken two knuckles In his right
hand at the beginning of the battle.
Daniels substituted for Young Motto,
who failed to show up.
