But if the crown is to be awarded,
the man entitled to the best claim is
Jim Thorpe, the renowned Indian who
upset the social status Of Sweden and
rent asunder the A. A. U.
Thorpe must be listed as one of the
greatest football players Of the game,
More than one will give him first place
even above the magic of Mahan or the
power of Ted Cop. He could kick, run,
pass, block, tackle, duck, dodge, and
smash In baseball he was good enough
to reach the big league. In track work
he was good eniugh to win the all round
championship of the planet upon which
we are making a brief and stormy
abode. He was fine runner and a
great jumper. He could peg the jaw
elm and toss the discus. Wherever
placed he was star.
Thorpes athletic average was un-
doubtedly the highest of the lot. He
could not do quite as many things as
Mathewson, but his range was nearly as

Been Famous for a :.
J Generation
MADE OF CHOICEST RED BURLEY

B The secret of tobacco satisfaction is

good chew gets right next to your
taste, while the leaf in Plug iobacco'is
in a state of fresh, juicy richness that

bacco.
There's no tobacco in the world that
can give you the hearty,o wholesome
flavor that you get from delicious
chew of Spear Head.
Spear Head is made exclusively Of
ripe, red Kentucky Burley--the most
richly-havored chewing tobacco that
grows. Still more, only the very choic-
est red Burley leaf is used for Spear
Head.
This choice leaf is selected with the
most painstaking care, is stemmed by,
hand, is thoroughly washed free of all
foreign matter, and is pressed into
Spear Head plugs so slowly that not
drop of juice or an atom Of the nat

Who is the greatest all round athletic
marvel this commonwealth has ever pro
ducedl The subject is one of abiding
interest, for there have been many who
followed varied sporting activities and
who in these various lines reached high
places.
There is, for an often used example,
Christy ,Mathewson. Mathewson is one
Of the three greatest pitchers that ever
lived. By many ne is listed as the
greatest. His place in baseball is at the
top. At Buckness he was a first class
full back; SO at football, another ma
jor sport his rank is well up.
He ism 7 a star golfer, but he is
good one. He is a good trap shooter,
and if that might be classed as a sport,
A chess player of unusual ability. So
here is Mathewson s field-baseball,
football, golf, trap shooting, chess and
checkers.
Bender Great Athlete.
Charles Albert Bender, the Chippewa
chief holds a place, but not as high as
Mathewson. Bender excels at baseball,
golf and trap shooting, His average
here is high but his range isn't as
wide.
