jim THORPE MUST PRODUCE
With Boston Braves, Famous Indian
Athlete Will Have to Show Ma
ior League Ability.

Jim Thorpe, famous Indian athlete,
sold recently TO the Boston Braves by
Manager McGraw of the Giants, must
stand upon his own feet in the future.
The celebrated Fox and Sac Indians
sale this time is strictly bona fide
proposition, and unless he can prove he
has major league caliber he viii be
shunted to the minors.
Thorpe's passing from the Giants i'm
dicates that he has completed his post
graduate course In baseball. Signed as
a ball player at a time when he was
at the peak of his fame as an athlete,
Jim Thorpe failed to win regular
berth, but was held because his con-
tract was an ironclad one and also be-
cause McGraw believed he was capa-

Jim Thorpe may possess major

Daseman, as he played first base for
Greenville in the Interstate league in
1900.
I'm 1902 the Pirates released the lit
tie fellow to Columbus in the Ameri-
can association. He played there two
years and won fame as a third base
man. Cleveland needed no third base
men, as Bill Bradley, then in his prime,
was guarding third base for the team.
However, a place was found for Terry
at short between the famous stars,
Bradley and Lajoie, and it wasn't long
before Terry's fielding was on a par
with that of this illustrious pair.
Turner played shortstop for Cleve-
land until 1910 when he was shifted
over to third base, where he continued
to play fine ball. In recent years
Turner has not been considered a

LAST OF OLD GUARD
is ABOUT THROUGH
Cotton Top Turner Not Playing
This Season.
Terry Was Considered Fixture on

With the Indians.

Another familiar old face has passed
from the big league. Or should we
say an old familiar shock Of cotton

Cotton Top" Turner, who for 15 years
was fixture on the Cleveland Amer
lean league team. No more famous
crop Of hair was worn in the big
leagues than the crop that adorned
Terry as he dug them up In deep short
or raced up the third base line to
gobble up slow-hit grounders.
Turner, who has been given his un-
conditional release, really is the last

years, have seen the passage of the
entire group of stars who shone so
brilliantly in the late eos and the
early years of the present century

ford, Plank, Evers, Bender, and now
Turner.
1t is true that Turner was consid-
erably younger man than the other
men referred to. Turner is only thir-
ty-seven. Lajoie had been playing big
league ball seven years before Terry
won a regular berth with the old
Cleveland Maps in 1904. But in the
average fans mind Turner is associ-
ated with these older fellows, and fans
got to such stage that last year they
were calling Terry "Old Grandpop."
It seemed as though Turner had been
with the Cleveland team for century.
AS matter of fact, Terry original

HOW EMERY BALL HAD ORIGIN
Russell Ford Pitching In Game at At

Back in 1907 Russell Ford was
pitching to Ed Sweeney before a
game In the Atlanta (Ga.) park. Ford
tossed wild one that struck a con-

ney tossed it back and Ford pitched
again. 1t started straight for Swee-
ney's NIT, then jumped aside.
''What did you do to that one?"
asked Sweeney.
Nothing" Ford replied. Then
Sweeney picked up the ball and
saw the leather was scuffed where
It hit the rough pillar. He tipped
Ford of.
In the big league Ford used an
