INDIANS LOSE HARRIS.
First Baseman Is Seriously Injured
 Starting Home from France.

New York, May 22.-Joseph Harris first ba seman of the Cleveland h. dianS, Is lying in a. military hospital in the small town of Tonnere, France, with a fractured skull, three broken ribs and severe bruises on his legs, victim of an unfortunate autom obile accident. 1t is doubtful if he will ever be able to play ball again
 Although the accident occurred about three weeks ago, details of it did not become known in this country until yesterday. Harris was one of a party of eight soldiers riding in q heavy motor truck in Tonnere ell route to St Aignon, where they were going to board a train for an em- barkation camp. While speeding at a fair rate over the rough roads one of the rear wheels of the truck broke and the car crashed with violent force against a concrete mile post, throwing tho occupants to the ground.
 Harris was sitting on the rear of the truck and when the crash came he was thrown several yards and landed on his head in an embankm ent. At first it was thought that both of his legs had been broken. He was unconscious when removed to the hos pital. The other m mbers of the party were not as seriously injured. but were badly shaken up. Before the accident the party was Jubilant, a S they had started on the first leg of their homeward journey and Harris had visions of joining the Indians within a. few weeks.

Toledo, May 22.-Thus early in the proceedings honors are being heaped upon Jack Dempsey, who has started Itraining for his title bout with Will Hard. From an admircr Dempsey yes |terday received a one-dollar bill with the suggestion that the boxer pur- chase cigar with the money. Con- tributions of this sort added to the prospective haul when he boxes in public at p cents a head have aroused hopes of unlimited wealth in the minds of the thrifty boxer and his canny manager. The ring in which Dempsey will do his exhibition boxing will be surrounded by 4,000 seats and the receipts should be heavy. Ohioans are by no means enthusiastic over the proposal of the challenger to charge admission to his training quarters.
 Jimmy De Forrest. who is to have charge of Dempsey's training camp, arrived here yesterday, and half a dozen sparring partners arc expected before the week ends.

New York May .--Besinning on Saturday Vincent Richards will be eligible once more to compete in events sanctioned by the United States National Lawn Tennis associa- ton. This was announced yesterday by George T. Adec, president of the associa ton, who dec]a red that the officials had reinstated Richards, dat ing from Saturday, on his promise that on that day his connection with Alex Taylor & Co.,, the local sport ing goods firm, would be severed. It was because of his being in the en- ploy of that firm that Richards was suspended a week ago last Sunday.
 The amateur rule committee issued the following statement on the case:
 "Vincent Richards has resigned his position in the sporting goods busi ness.
 Tt has been proved to the satis- faction of the amateur rule commit tee that Mr. Richards name was used to advertise tho sale of tennis goods without his authority, and his action in withdrawing from the sport ing goods business has removed all other question as to his amateur standing.
 "TIe has accordingly been officially reinstated, this to take effect upon the day of his resignation. In the opinion of the committee MT.

X. A. U. CHAMPIONSHIPS

New York, May 22.--The National A. A. T.. outdoor track and field championships will be decided on Franklin Field, Philade delphia, Septem- Der ,. 6 and &. under the auspices of the Middle Atlantic X. A. U. This announcement was made yesterday when the dates were submitted to the national track and field championship committee for approval. The matter of ratifying the Middle Atlantic A. A. Us selection of dates will be nothing moro than formality, it is expected.
 The three day program will include title tests for juniors and seniors, the all-around championship and the re- lay title races The meet was award ed to the Middle Atlantic A. A. IT. late last year at the annual A. A. U. convention, but the dates were not announced until yesterday. The Phil adelphia officials have been seeking the attra ction for several years past and have adopted a campaign which they expect will result in one of the most successful title track and field meets ever held.
 Last year the championship were conducted at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station near Chicago and were a success. A distinct war tone was given to the meet, held on the government reserva ton, with sailors and soldiers predominating among those who tried for championship bra ckets. This year the situation will be changed. The return home or some of the countrys leading athletes has augmented the list of prominent contenders for track and field tltles' and the depleted ranks of club com petitors have been replenished by the quick demobilization of returned l fighters.

THORPE IS SOLD
 TO BOSTON BRAVES
Famous Indian Athlete Leaves
 Giants After CheCkered Career

New York, May 22.--Jim Thorpe. the famous Indian athlete, is a Giant no longer, The great Aborigine, who in 1912 won the right to call him. self the worlds greatest athlete. yes terday was sold by John McGraw, Giants, to the Boston Braves.
 When McGraw put through tho Gonzales deal with Branch Rickey president of the Cardinals, on a cash basis last Monday, it enabled him to keep Robertson as extra outfielder. Had the original Gonzales trade gone through, Robertson would have been sent to the Washington Americans, but this trade was hlocked by sev- eral National league clubs As Nc GraW has still another capable out fielder in Lee King. Thorpe no long, CT was needed, and he was sent to a pasture where he will be able to play regularly every day.
 Thorpe's career with the Giants has been a checkered one. Three times before he has been let out by the 'ibiit Ied'Ct, oul SdSli Lilllc MCNl dW kept a string to the Indian. The Giants believed they made ten strike in signing Jim just before the 1913 training trip. Thorpe had just been declared a professional by the amateur athletic union for playing minor league baseball in 1910 and 1911, and his trophy for winning the all around athletic championship at the Stockholm Olympic games of 1912 was taken from him.
 Hit Poorly With Giants.
 Thorpe was with the Giants con- tinuing through the seasons of 1913 and 1914, hitting .143 and .194 re- spcctively. The twenty-one player limit went into effect in the National league in 1915, and Thorpe was farmcd out to the Jersey City and Harrisburg clubs of the International league. He was recalled that fall, but in 1916 he was farmed to the Milwaukee club of the American as- 1 sociation. where he led the league in stolen bases
 { In the spring of 1917 Jim was re- 1 leased to Cincinnati. with the stip- ulation that if he did not make good with the Reds he would be returned to New York. After playing most of | the season for Cincinnati Jim was re- turned to New York by the Reds. | After Kauff was drafted last summ CT 1 Thorpe and Wilhot alternated in left ! field for New York.
 1 McGraw always chung to the hope
 that Thorpe some day would develop 1 into the same star in baseball that l he was in football and athletics. and i in those sports Jim never had a { superior Oddly enough, Jim has i frequently said he would rather have [ starred in baseball than in any other 1 sport.
 1 Thorpe is a considerab bly, improved ! player today over what he was in [ 1913, when he first came to the l Giants, but Jim now is 34 years old
 and the chances are he never will
 be any better than he is today. He | hits left handed pitching hard, but 1 continues easy for right hand ed | curves.
 L Thorpe frequently has expressed 1 the hope that some day he would
 be played regularly, This ambition 1 should be gratified, as Jim shoulc
 have no difficulty in landing a regu lar job in the Boston outfeld.
