In a swatfest the Academy pound
ed out a 16 to victory over the
Dingbats in the opening game of the
season Saturday afternoon on the
Campus. In the early stage of the
game everything went rosy with the
Dingbats and they apparently thought
they had cinched the game, but the
tide of fortune turned in favor Of the
schoolboys and as the game advanced
the Dingbats were fast losing their pep
but nevertheless they sent a scare in
to the hearts of the Academy followers.
With the willow the visitors showed
superiority, outhitting the Academy by
three hits, but they folded very loose
ly at critical times which lost the
game.
Coach Overbagh tried out his entire
twirling staff but none Of them proved
very effective.
Right off the reel the Dingbats scor-
ed three runs on four hits and they
scored in the fifth, sixth, seventh and
ninth. The Academy was held score
less for two innings by SimcoX and in
the third they secured their tally on
one hit and a combination of errors.
The scored one in the fourth and in
the fifth on two hits and wretched
fielding by the Dingbats, seven in the
seventh on mostly errors mingled with
three Or four hits.

MUST MAKE GOOD,
 OR RETURN TO MINORS
Indian is in Texas on Final Chance to Prove He is Big League
 Stuff.

Jim Thorpe, the Sac and Fox In- dian, Olympic prize winner and one of the greatest football players that ever donned gridiron armor, is raa11- ing his last stand on the major league baseball diamond. Without question one of the greatest athletes ever de- veloped in America or in any other portion of the world, Thorpe has made a name for himself, in track and field sports, lacrosse, football and col 1ege baseball. It was not until he un- dertook to play the latter game in the big leagues that he found a sport wherein he failed to shine with his accustomed brilliancy.
 Fresh from his Olympic triumphs at Stockholm and the subsequent sen- sational stripping away of these hon. ors by the amateur athletic union on the charge that he was a profession al. Thorpe was signed to play with the New York Nationals by Manager John J. McGraw. From the very be- ginning the redskin athlete ran like a deer in the outfield and on the bases, fielded well but was helpless before the curved pitching of the big league box stars.
 Given a straight ball across the heart of the plate, Thorpe with his powerful arms and shoulders could lift the ball over the centerfielder's S head. The trouble was the pitcher never made such a mistake but once. Thereafter Thorpe got nothing but curved pitching and the Indian swung on the slants in vain. The Indian drifted from the major league to the minors and even there his helplessre ess at the plate caused him to be cast aside for a less sensational player who could bat in pinches.
 Through it all McGraw held firm to his belief that eventually Thorpe would master the art of hitting curved delivery. This spring McGraw decided to give. him another chance with the Giants at the training camp at Marlin, Texas.
 There the redman was persuaded to try batting left-handed when he went to the plate and at once decided improvement was noticed in his hit ting. Tn his new position he showed ability to connect with the best of the

YALE WELL FIXED FOR
 BASEBALL SEASON
hiilS Lauder Sees Promising Material For Eli Baseball Tcam-Gar
 field to Try For Team.

New Haven, March 15.-Although the Yale baseball team has lost t,le 1iVe veterans who were disqualified for taking free board at Quogue, l.. l., Coach Lauder says he has some fast. promising material and that the Yale team VIII be no weakling this season. The special baseball Investigating committee will decide this week whether Lefty Watrous, who pitched the 4ale-Harvard game in Cambridge last June, and Johnson, the best sub stoltute int1elder last season, will be in eligible or not for playing with the Colonlals, who contained in their ranks a number of professional play CTS, last summer. He thinks that he has promising nucleus in the follow ing candidates: Pitchers, R. j. Wat rous, A. k. Underwood, r. C. Brophy, Lary Walsh and William Gurney; catchers, w. J. Fudge and John iBer- with; first base, P. $. Bush; second base, H. A. Johnson.
 These are all veterans and Lauder has the best freshman nine Yale turned out in years to draw from to fill up the gaps vacated by LeGore, Pumpelly Rhett, Milburn and East on. Of the freshman team, Newell Garfield and Weiss, the former HotcF
 kiss school star, are excellent pitch ing material. Capt Shepley, the for mer Hill school player will give Bush an argument for first base. Shell, the former AndoVer star. is almost cer- tain to win the competition for sec ond base; CrOtty, who was formerly a Dean academy infielder, is likely to land at shortstop, and Fulton, for merly of the New Haven high school is likely to win out in the trials for
