Thorpe, who later was named the top American athlete of the first half of the 20th century, was the first big-name athlete to play pro football. He signed with the Bulldogs in 1915. AT THE opposite end of the Early Years area, Ernie Nevers and the 1928 Duluth Eskimos team are remembered in an unusual exhibition. Featured mementoes here include the full Eskimos uniform, locker, equipment trunk and great coat of Nevers, the Pro Football Hall of Fame fullback who led the Eskimos to one of the most unusual seasons in all of sports history in 1926.

The Eskimos played 29 games, 28 of them on the road, and wound up with a 19-7-3 record. They were on the road for 111 straight days and travelled 17,000 miles from coast to coast.

In one span of eight days, the Eskimos played five games. Duluth played the entire season with only a 13-man squad and Nevers was the epitome of the "iron-man" attributes of the team, playing 1714 of a possible 1740 minutes during the season. Nevers, who along with Red Grange, was the hottest collegiate name in the nation in 1925, had been lured away from a professional baseball career by Ole Haugsrnd, the Eskimos owner. Nevers' signing in the NFL came at a time when the new American Football League was forming and adding the former Stanford star to the NFL fold was a major coup in the one- year war between the two leagues that was to follow. A variety of unusal mementoes fills the rest of the Early Years display.

By SHELLY COHEN CAMBRIDGE, Mass Harvard University seniors whooped and shouted as world heavyweight champion Muhammad All made his debut as a Harvard lecturer Wednesday night. More than 1,200 students jammed the Harvard Business School auditorium to hear the words of the famed boxer who admits to "barely making it out of high school with a D-minjs average." FOR MORE than an hour, All talked without notes to the predominantly white audience about life and love and the value of true friendship. "I had to let you know there are more sides to Muhammed All than you see on television," the 33-year-old fighter told Harvard's graduating class. "People don't pay for that," he said of his lecture and poem on friendship. "They pay for foolishness." In a lecture interrupted by applause and several standing ovations, Ali urged the students to "remember what you are today, because when you make it, you have a tendency to 'forget what you were yesterday.

"I'm from Louisville, a little black boy who made $18 a week and wanted to be Golden Gloves champ," he said ALI ESTIMATED he would make about $2 million in his next bout with Joe Bugner of Great Britain, set for July 1 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Noting that some of those present In the auditorium would go on to be presidents, doctors, lawyers and scientists, Ali added, "I understand to speak to you, it's got to be pretty heavy." But it was the familiar "All shuffle" and the fighter's quips about an imitation of sportscaster Howard Cosell that really brought the house down. Most of the queries tossed at Ah' during the question and answer session which ended the program tended to be light, referring to his antics in and out of the ring. One of the few serious questions was about the Boston school integration situation, which was plagued by violence last fall. "I dont know nothing about Boston," Ali said.

"We love our Islamic schools. We're too proud," he said, to want to be integrated into white schools. energies in your own neighborhoods. The problem is not busing, the problem ia not a white problem, the problem is in your mind." No Ali appearance would be complete without poetry, and the champion had a few offerings for the students. At his wife Melinda's request, he recited his shortest poem, "How it feels to be as great as me." "Me, Whee." Ali told a news conference earlier in the day he expected to be in the fight business five more years, then spend another 10 years in exhibition bouts to "let them see the ex-champ in places like Libya and Malaysia." "I DONT hate nobody," he added.

"I just love my own. Why upset the whole neighborhood? Exert your To have grudge race program WEST SALEM Have you ever wanted to be a race driver? Have you ever wanted to find out just how fast the family sedan is? Or do you just need the extra practice to tune your car and reflexes for a regular race day? If you've considered any of those questions, Dragway 42's new Friday night grudge race program may be the answer. The initial "amateur night" will take place Friday from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. The program was designed to give the drag racing novice a chance to get behind the wheel without the pressure and competition of a regular race day.

Dragway 42 officials will be on hand to instruct any newcomers in the sport of drag racing. The regular race day ambulance service and safety crews will also be in attendance. A budding Don Garths need not be embarrassed by bringing oat a non-race car. At Thompson Drag Raceway, where they run a similar program, one night's overall winner was a Cadillac, white the runner-ap was a 17 year old in a Volkswagen. The amateur grudge race program will be held every Friday night through August.

Regular racing will return to the West Salem quartermile Sunday, with American Hot Rod Association Classes and eliminators. Sunday the gates will open at 9 a.m. with racing at 2 p.m. To meet tonight The Tuslaw Booster Club will meet tonight in the high school at 7:30.
