FEDS" Mill HURT CHICAGO Outlaws” Cut Into National League Team in That City, But Nowhere Else. New York. Federal* are cutting in to the National League, in Chicago, hut no where else is the opinion of John Tener, president of the older league. This latest expression of Mr. Tener attracted considerable attention and discussion here today. He said the National League is doing well—bar ring Chicago—in all cities, even St. liOiiis “The Cubs have not drawn well,” "ell,” said Mr. Tener. “There is no denying the fact that Joe Tinker’s j < Inb is far more popular In the Windy City that that of Hank O’Day. There are two good reasons for this. Perhaps i he chief one is that the Chicago Na tionals have made a very disappoint ing showing so far. All winter the experts figured it would he a very prominent factor in our campaign. “Then, too. there is a general belief in Chic&go that Charles VV. .Murphy is still interested in the (Tubs. No one can get that idea out of people’s heads. The selection of Mr Thomas as pres ident, unfortunately has placed that gentleman in a false light. Chicagoans argue that Mr. Thomas was a person al friend of Mr. Murphy, the latter must he interested in the Cubs still. Not a Share. “Now T know differently, at least Mr. Taft, who is an honorable man. assures me that Charles Murphy does not own a share of stock in the Chi-* or go Nationals. Messrs. Taft and Ack erman own practically the entire club. President Thomas, of course, is inter ested. hut not to any large extent. He probably owns no more than two or three shares at the outside. “Mr. Taft has assured me that he purchased Mr. Murphy’s entire hold ings. The former president of the Cubs retained one share of stock until the reorganization of the club follow ing the change of ownership. He had to do so in order to serve as president. When his successor was chosen, he resigned title to even this sruall in terest.’’ “Has not the flt. Louts Federal League club injured the National League In that city?” Mr. Tener was asked. “No, indeed,” was the reply. “I nm sure it has not. The Cardinals did not do well last year, you must remem ber. and could not he expected to at tract the patronage of a winner. But up to the present our attendances in St. Louis have been better than dur ing the early part of last season.” LIKE IONIC FOB PIRJIES CHEF Fred Clark Loosened Up and Gives Out Interview on Pittsburg's Success. Pittsburg. Tho Pirates' success in tlie early linys of this season is bav ins a ionic effect on Fred Clarke He loosened up today and nave out an Interview in which he positively gloated over the croakers who cov ered the city with murky thoughts at the time of that famous trade last autumn. It will be remerbered the critics were sure Clarke had wrecked the Pittsburghers when he let five good tnen go to St.' Louis. They said Robinson, the pitcher, alone was worth all he got from the Missouri metropolis. "A i»all player who doesn't Tit into a team Is not a good player," asserted Clarke "It doesn't make any differ ence how well! he can hit or run and throw, he doesn't belong and he Is a losing hall player. I'm not saying that all the fellows 1 traded were misfits with the Pittsburg team. Some o [them were. I think the trade helped St Louis and 1 know It helped us. "It was this way. I have thought for years that Konetcry is one of the greatest hall players In the world— only out of place—l know that If I could get him away from St. I-onls he would fit Into the Pittsburg team perfectly and give us his best. I knew Mowrey would. "I felt certain Coney, who Is a clean decent fellow, was disgusted with the way thinga went In St. Loula; that if his ambition were aroused he would be a leader and a great help. A man who wants to win, who Is wild to win. loses a lot when he Is surrounded by careless, slip shod players, and who sees the bad habits of some hurting the team’s chance* Put that same man on a fighting, hustling team with everyone behaving and working hard, and he will hdeak a leg to help the team win, I figured it that way wtth both Ko netcy and Mowrey—and they'll make good tor me " LIKES*"IT.

Carlisle—America need have no fear that the world's all round athletic championship, which Jim Thorpe, the famous Indian, won at the Olympic games at Stockholm in 1912, will go to any other country in 1916, now that Thorpe has become a professional ball player. The Indian who will fill Thorpe’s shoes is Joe Guyon, the twenty-year old redskin who made such a phenom enal showing last fall on the gridiron, that every critic in the country chose him as the most terrific back field player of the year. Guyon, though only a freshman, made a mar velous record in the recent class ath letic games at the Indian school. This football star won seven events, and captured places in two others for a total of thirty-nine points, and his records were exceptionally fine con sidering the many events in which he competed. Guyon captured the 100- yard dash in 10-4-5 seconds, and a few minutes afterward too, the 220-yard dash event in 23 4-5 seconds. He jumped from the race into the 120- yard hurdle without any rest and romped away with the high stick event in 17 seconds, a time he could have improved had he been pushed. lie proved equally strong in the field events. He took the broad Jump with a leap of 20 feet 2 inches, and leaped five feet two inches in the running high Jump. He entered the hammer event, the first time he had ever hand led this missile, and threw it 92 feet in one toss. Coach Warner believes he could add 50 feet to the distance. Then Guyon strolled over to the shot putting circle and won that event by tossing the 16-pound leaden ball 39 feet and 2 inches. He topped off his performances, heavy though he is, by entering the polo vault and winning that event with 9 feet 3 inches. Guyon has never tried his hand at any kind of track athletics until this year. Guyon Is 5 feet 10 inches in height, and weighs only 165 pounds.
