that real fighting spirit that they have
not been called upon to show to date.
Nevertheless, the Middies should find
themselves on the big side of the
final score
Penn vs.. Michigan.
Saturday Pennsylvania will travel to
Ann ArbOr to give battle to coach
Hurry Up" YOst's chargers. This
game viii be watched with great in
terest by the experts throughout the
country for two reasons; first because
of the clashing of an eastern and a
western eleven, and, second, because
of its being George BrOOke's first at
tempt to uplift Old Penn and once
again place her on the football map.
The game should be replete with SEN
satiOnal football. Especially should
this be true from the spectators point
of view, as both teams will no doubt
resort to the open style game.
Forward Pass Perfected.
Penn has perfected a number of for
ward passes that are said to be reve-
latiOns. Marshall, Capt. Dung, Boil
ger, and Minds as well as the ends and
tackles, are to be called upon to make
this style of game a success. The re-
turn of Craig to the Wolverines line
up has added an extra amount of en-
thusiasm to the teams play and this,
combined with the fight that they
is going to help the Michigan aggre-
cation retrieve some of that prestige
that they lost early in the season.
Other Games.
Illinois and Purdue at Urbana, Kan
sas and Nebraska at Lawrence, Min
nesOta and Chicago at Minneapolis,
Missouri and Drake at Columbus as
well as Notre Dame and Wabash at
CrawfOrdville are contests that should
attract thousands of followers of the
game.
In the south the annual Georgetown
Virginia struggle at Washington is
sure 10 bring out a record breaking
crowd for this locality. To date the
Virginians look to have a slight ad-
vantage over the Washington aggrega-
ton, but as this annual affair between
these old time rivals always proves to
be closely contested battle, the win
ner viii be in doubt until the final
whistle. In Capt Costello, George
town possesses a player who has few
super1Ors in the quarterback position
Kentucky State and Marshall at Lex
Ington and Vanderbilt and Auburn at
birmingham should also prove high
class games.

JAMES THoE :, r NC Ids
MOST WoNleT-J@ At. Il. re,
PLEA 1uILT
PLAYED BALL ff:U.K rylvNEY

New York, Jan. 27.-James Thorpe.
the ndian athlete and Olympic
champion, admitted today that charges
of professionalism brought against
him We're true and formally retired
from amateur athletics. Thorpe's
confession was contained in a letter
to the registration committee of the
Amateur Athletic union, which met
today to investigate his case.
The letter admitted that Thorpe had
played baseball for a salary on a pro-
fessional team three years ago when
a student of the Carlisle Indian school
but said hat on the same team there
We're several northern college men who
We're regarded as amateurs and
Thorpe did not realize that his par
t]icipation was wrong. Thorpe adj
mitted that he did not play for the
money he earned, but for the love of
the game.
Thorpe's winnig of the pentathlon
and decathlon events at the Olympic
games in Stockholm and later his
wonderful performances which won for
him the all-around championship. of
the Amateur Athletic union at Celtic
park last September had stamped him
the most marvellous all-around athlete
of modern times.
All the prizes and the honors which
Thorpe has gained since 1909 - the
date from which his standing as a
professional begins-must be trans
ferred through the officials of the
Amateur Athletic union to the men
who finished second to the indian in
every event.
After the Olympic games in Sweden
last year, King Gustave sent for
Thorpe to congratulate him on his
proWcss. At first the Indian timidly
declined to meet the monarch, but
later when several of the American
committeeman insisted that he do so,
Thorpe went to the palace. There the
kink took the Indian by the hand and
said smilingly:
You are the greatest athlete in the
world"

SALARIES ARE FAT
FOR GENTLEMEN

BALLPLAYERS WHO CAN DE-
LIVER THE GOODS ARE GET
TING LOTS OF MONEY.

New York, Jan. 27.-Who's going to
capture first place in the baseball sal
airy league? ..
That question appears to be the
dominant one just now. The other
day when Frank Farrell engaged
Frank Chance as manager of the Yam
KEGS at a yearly wage estimated to be
$4,000 the vexing problem seemed to
have been solved. But the ~irrespressi-
Bile "Charlie'' Murphy of the Cubs has
put his rotund figure IN the baseball
horizon as IA disputant of the Chanc
assertion.
Murphy a y that Johnny" Evers is
going to be the king-pin salary artist.
Little Johnny" is going to get so
much money that Murphy doesn't
really like to tell any one just what the
amount is.
Only one string is tied to Evers' an
nual stipend. That is the Cubs must
fin sh in first, second or third place.
With that condition carried out, he
will receive in addition to a stipulated
amount a percentage of the earnings
and a bonus, the latter depending on
what position the club occupies at the
end of the season.
High managerial salaries promise to
he an important feature of the base
bail season. The winter has brought
about many important changes in the
baseball armament, with six of the
major league clubs being placed in the
hands of new leaders. Discomfort in
many cities has compelled changes in
the management of the clubs, and in
the general shifting about the men Sc
lected to assume charge have been in
position to dictate terms under which
they would attach their signatures to
contracts.

tell. But when it was noised around
that Chance was to get the biggest
piece of change ever offered a ball
player, old Charlie up and says, the
idea! it amt so, Johnny Evers is
to get the most. SO Charles has sort
o got it on us there. We have to
believe him, although we wish he'd
speak up and mention just what
%Johnny's wages are.
Well, be that as it may, it's a pipe
they're al going to wear silk socks
this season. Sam Crawford of the
Tigers, who is still a member of the

Philadelphia, Jan. q. - National
league fans of this town have supreme
confidence in Manager Charley Doom,
and predict a brilliant season for him
in 1913 if he doesn't have another run
of hard luck.
Doom was b~aseball's hard luck
manager in 1912. a glimpse at the
box scores will show that he hardly
had his varsity string intact in the
lineup more than Is days during the
campaign. He was without Magee
for weeks at the start. Just before
the season opened Magee broke a
finger and vas on the shelf for a long
time.
Hans Lobert spent more days in
the hospital than he did at third
base. Though the Pills played 1872
games during the season, not one
player took part in all the contests.
Here is the number of games played
and missed by the regulars.

Tell of our gratitude
Toward you, o Knight of the Pail?
You have restored US the sun;
Light have you brought to our lives;
You have made palaces

Out of dark, dank, dismal dives.
How did you clear all the dirt
That covered those windows, away?
You must have narrowed it,
Gang plowed, Wheel narrowed it,
Or did you blast? Tell us, pray.
