Jim Thorpe, Indian athlete, prom
iSes To be the most sensational base
ball player Of 1914
The astounding advances made by
this famous athlete in baseball have
furnished managers. owners. players
and experts with an object lesson
traditions of the national game, and
compel radical change in existing
and accepted methods.
If Thorpe keeps the promise he has
given during the fall and winter. il
Will be a triumph for John McGraw
far greater than the winning of
worlds championship could be. and
it will make him the greatest man
of baseball-of all time. 1t will be
a triumph for McGraw's method of
developing baseball players.
Thorpe is the greatest athlete in
the world. He has proved it at al
most every style and kind of going.
He won the all-rOund championship
during the Olympic games He had
played some baseball, but was only
a mediocre player, and a wretched
hitter in school and in the little team
with which he played and profess
sionalized himself.
When the New York team signed
TOrpe TO play baseball it looked to
many as If New York was merely put
ting over a press agent scheme.
Thorpe earned his salary last season
in advertising he gave the team. But
McGraw evidently had other ideas.

cite bunch.
Following the Lafayette contest,
the Gary five. the best team with the
exception of Charlottesville 10 put in
an appearance on the local floor this

meet with Culver Military academy
at Culver, next Saturday. The cadets
will undou btedly be met some time
later in the year.
Coach Metzler has been in touch
with the Scott high Of Toledo and
the F'indlay, o., teams, and is en-
deavoring to arrange games for after
the state tournament, as the tourna-
ment necessitated the canceling of the
games scheduled with these schools

PICKS JIM THORPE TO BE
1915 BASEBALL SENSATION

There is one thing about McGraw.
If he has faith in a player he will
stick to him longer than any other
manager would. He calculated that
Thorpe could run faster throw
harder, jump further and higher, and
was stronger than any athlete in the
world. With that material he set out
to make a real baseball player.
Thorpe was an awkward fielder, err
ratio, a lunging, hard swinging, un-
certain batter, and he had most OF
the faults that would be considered
fatal in young players. McGraw
kept him while almost any other
manager would have fired him as a
hopeless prospect before the training
trip was ended. All last summer
McGraw worked patiently with the
Indian and watched him. He was
satisfied. Thorpe. he discovered.
also had brains. and the Indian was
studying. watching the actions of
others and adapting himself TO GER
methods of others.
ID hon the round-the-world trip
sta. 4 Thorpe had the opportunity
of wat. hing different kinds of ball
players and he suddenly cut loose
and commenced to execute the things
he had seen the famous players do.
The playing OF the Indian has proved
the sensation of the tour, and the old
players en- route hOmeward now are
writing wonderful stories of the In
dams ability to play the game and
declare he probably will "set the
league aflTe."
