Death Closes Fabulous
of Jim Thorpe
LomlU, Calif. (U.R) Funeral
arrangements were itlll pend
Ini today fer Jim Thorpe, the
bit Indian who won sports
fame that never dimmed dur
ing Ma lifetime, but who tatt
ed bitter disappointment al
most from the moment be
: reached greatness.
Thorpe, 04, died Saturday of
a heart attack In hli trailer
. home here, where he had come
Juit a week earlier to rest and
fish. He and his wife, Patricia,
were eating dinner at the time.
' It had been more than 40
years since Thorpe started an
athletic career, which included
exploits in nearly every major
sport, that brought him world
acclaim.
-To m a n y he was the
world's top sports figure.
King Gustav of Sweden told
him in 1912:
"Sir, you are the greatest
athlete In the world."
That was perhaps the highest
point in his career, coming af
ter he had won both the deca
;. thlon and the pentathlon at the
. Olympic games at Stockholm.
But long after he no longer
was active, his feats in football,
baseball and track and field
continued to speak for his
greatness. Just three years ago,
l-ports writers' poll named him
the greatest male athlete of the
half-century. And Iti 1951, the
movie, "Jim Thorpe, All-American,"
depicted his career.
- But only a year after his
Olympic showing, he receiv

appointments. It was discov
ered that he had played base
ball for a small league in
1910 and had received $60
a month.
' Thorpe admitted it freely,
and under the Olympic code he
was stripped of his medals and
his marks wiped from the rec
ord books. . .
There were other frustrations
and hardships in Jim's life, such
as when he swung a pick and
shovel for a living during the
depression. In 1951, sick and
broke, he was a charity case In
a hospital while he underwent
surgery for removal of a lip
cancer. ' "
Thorpe was born on a farm
near Prague, Okla., in 1888. He
won his first fame playing foot
ball at Carlisle Indian school,
setting records there the same
year ha starred in Olympic
games. .

Thorpe's Son at ,
Chemawa Grieves
Death of Father j
John, Robert Thorpe. shy
lB-year-old Chemawa student,
today awaited word from Los
Angeles as to whether he will
be able to attend the funeral of
his famous father, Jim Thorpe,
who died there late Saturday,
aged 64. i
The boy is a sophomore at
Chemawa, where he has been
for five years. Prior to com
ing here he spent three years
at an Indian school at Pawnee,
Okla. He expects to be here
until ha finishes high school.
John plays football, basket
ball and baseball. He has been
troubled by asthma but is out
growing it. His brother Rich
ard left Chemawa two years
ago and is now in the navy
stationed at San Diego. Two
older brothers are in Korea.
John last saw his father in
Los Angeles last summer. The
elder Thorpe has never been
here. The boy is wondering if
the family will now get the
Olympic trophies his father
won- in 1912 but which were
later taken from him when it
was learned he had played pro
fessional baseball in ignorance
of the fact that it was forbid
den.
The Thorpe boy is a quiet,
reserved youngster who volun
teered no information but an
swered all questions readily.
