LONDON, Jan.

29. The real story of Jim Thorpe's trouble with the Amateur Athletic Union is given much space In today's newspapers and is the chief topic of discussion In Bportlng circles. Sympathy with Thorpe Is universal.

He was practicing in preparation for the Australian swimming championship in company with a number of other swimmers, when he suddenly seemed to be dragged under the water in a furious struggle. While other swimmers were hastening to him with their powerful overhand stroke Kahanamoku sank from sight.

His friends dived, brought him up and carried him ashore almost unconscious. A large eel. which he had choked to death, had attacked him. and in the struggle the swimmer had lost the index ringer of his right hand. It is reported doubtful Honus Wagner.

pointed out here that an athlete may be a professional cricketer In England who plays amateur football In the winter. Honus has never been hasty in signing up, but this year he took his pen in hand earlier than ever before. Those who were guests at the Baseball Writers' dinner to William H. Locke one week ago tonight probably will recall seping Honus have a little chat with his employer just before he was maira a snppch. It wa3 in that conversation that next season's Kennoy was one of the best known ball players In Western Pennsylvania.

He attended Pittsburgh High School and played shortstop on the team the season of 1902. He succeeded Phil Lewis at the short field, and his work at that place lit still talked of by those who follow the school games. The next year he entered West Virginia University to study law. He played shortstop on that team. In the meantime he helped organize the Pittsburgh Collegians and stayed with them during the summer.

Later he entered professional baseball. He played short on the crack Homestead club, and then went to Waynes-burg and played on the team of that place, which won the independent cham- pionship. When the P. O. M.

League was or-1 ganized in 1906 he was made manager of the Charieroi club. The next year he was with Akron. But he contracted a cold during the training season and was unfit to play out the year. He dropped out of the game, but when his health bevan to Improve he returned to the Collegians, and played second base.

This Is the opinion of Fred Snodgrass, center fielder of the Giants. Snodgrass came to Los Angeles today from his home in Oxnard for a short visit. He is positive, however, that the Giants will repeat next year and land another pennant.

The American Athletic Union undoubtedly guaranteed Thorpe as an amateur in all good faith. The indiscretion lies with Thorpe and his immediate friends. I hear that several of our famous Rugby football players are to be brought up before their committee for playing for money during the past summer in France.

This shows how Innocently it may be possible to stray frniti the strict path of amateurism. The growing interest in the games will have a tendency to raise the standard of amateurism to a scrupulous, fastidious height. In view of the Interest the Swedish royalty showed in the games and the interest which the kaiser is showing in the 1916 games, Americans are right in insisting on a prompt reparation of the fault committed."

Pittsburgh took a bad beating in 10 rounds at the hands of Ray Bronson at the Auditorium tonight. Perry was in a bad way after the third round of the milling and staggered around the ring in several of the following rounds, but Bronson was unable to put over the finishing punch. Only at times did Perry show flashes of form when he appeared to have a good punch. A fw rounds were even and all the others were in favor of Bronson. Jerry Murphy outpointed Jimmy Anderson In 10 rounds, and Knockout Webber finished Jimmy Burns in four rounds.

Georgetown's basketball Quintet scored another well-earned victory over the five from Virginia Military Institute here tonight.
