Though Amateur Athletic Union Has

BT ROSCOB FAWCETT.
Jim Thorpe, the great Carlisle Indian
athletic prodigy, continues to occupy
the sporting limelight. His disbarment
from amateur sport his Teverberated
around the globe and .in the wake oi
the publication of 493,566 various poses
of the Sac and Fox wonder are heralded
some interesting echoes of the sensa
tional and humiliating cataclysm.
Perhaps most notable of all. however,
Is the Intelligence from Charlotte, N.
C, that not later than July 18. 1912, the
Observer In that city printed a lengthy
account of Thorpe's professional ball
playing. For verification the Ob
server reproduces extracts which prove
conclusively that the tnhaoitants along
the South Atlantic Coast knew about
Thorpe's professionalism long before
he sailed from New York as a member
of Uncle Sam's delegation of Olympic
standard-bearers.
Just why the Amateur Athletic Union
did not get wise to his professionalism
long ago is, then, a mystery that will
go down unsolved with the records of
the great upheaval.
Judging from a cursory examination
of the record book the Amateur Ath
letic Union has more than 200 officers
scattered up and down the Coast in
that neighborhood.
The Middle Atlantic association has
enough officials at Philadelphia to set
a state Legislative Assembly up in
business; the South Atlantic, with
headquarters at Baltimore, has repre
sentatives at Norfolk. Richmond , and
Bristol. Vs.. and at Wheeling. W. Va.;
the Southern association has men at
Atlanta and Birmingham. Yet in all
that bunch of self-constituted aleuths
not one was able to discover that
Thorpe, acclaimed In every newspaper
in the land as the greatest living ath
lete In the land, had played ball if.
their own backyards.
It Is to laugh.
HAWKIXS' STATCS TV DOTJBT
Hurdler to Teach Mathematics and
Coach Hill Athletes.
Martin Hawkins. University of Ore
gon athlete who holds the Northwest
amateur records for the high and low
hurdles and finished third In the high
hurdles at the Olympic games at Stock
holm, has accepted a position as mathe
matics instructor at the Hill Military,
Academy. He will also coach the Hill
athletes In track and field work this
Spring.
Just what effect this will have on
the amateur future of Hawkins Is prob
lematical. His contract with the
academy calls for two periods dally of
mathematics instruction, which places
him in the faculty coach class, along
A-lth Veatch. of Washington High;
Borleske, of Lincoln High, and Calll
:rate, of Columbia University.
T. Morris Dunce, secretary of the Pa
cific Northwest Association of the
Amateur Athletic Union, refuses to
commit himself on the question until
he has Investigated the matter.
"If Hawkins is a bona fide Instructor,
receiving a salary for his classwork,
and not simply holding the position of
instructor as a cloak for his athletic
activity, 1 suppose he is eligible to
compete In registered amateur ath
letics." says Mr. Dunne.
"However, his position must be a
legitimate one, for the amateur rules
specify that a man must not receive
money for his athletic ability, either
directly or indirectly. If his salary Is
commensurate with those of bis fellow
instructors for class work of equal Im
portance, and coaches for nothing
simply as a side Issue, his position is
tenable. But he cannot receive money
for athletic coaching and compete in
amateur athletics."
Hawkins has no desire to retire from
amateur competition and expects to
compete In the Northwest track events
this season under the scarlet and white
of Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club.
He commences class work at Portland
Academy next Monday.

Here Is shown a sketch of a Mission design
piano, which noted designers claim is the trnest
mission model ever created in the piano industry.
It's a new 1913 creation from the great house of
Steger & Sons, Chicago, It is little in size, yet
of deep, rich tone quality.
Ask to see the best $375 piano which round
about dealers, factory branches and old-method
concerns have to offer. Don't be satisfied with
a so-called $375 value. Insist on seeing the
very best piano they have to offer for $375 spot
cash. Note carefully the tone, the construction
and the workmanship.
The reduced price of $265 for this $375 value is the cash price at any of the 40 Eilers stores. It is
the lowest price to each and all alike. No more is asked, no less is accepted. For the mere additional
simple interest (not on the whole amount, but only on the unpaid balance), arrangements will be made
for strictly confidential terms of payment as best suits the convenience of each buyer. Or a monthly
payment plan of $10 a month may be had. Catalogue "K" tells all about it Mailed free on request.
Eilers Music House, the Nation's largest.
also will resign. It Is understood.
- "If I had the time I would be de
lighted to act as head of the club,"
explained President Watkins last night.
"But business will not permit, and I'll
have to hand In my resignation, I'm
afraid. It would mean about six weeks
of hard labor and my business and out
side work In the City Council occupy
all my attention now."
The date and site for the 14th an
nual bench show will be reported upon
tomorrow night. The large hall now
occupied by the McCredle billiard par
lors on Sixth street, between Wash
ington and Alder streets, is the latest
suggestion for a location. The billiard
emporium removes to the Teon build
ing March 1, and If the hall Is vacant
about April 1 this would furnish a
good site.
