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

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 "

LOSING HONOR
Jim Thorpe Efforts Won’t Be
Lost—World’s All Round
Athletic Championship.
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.
