achievements.

Thorp haa approached world record in
to many lino of activity that physical
trainers are at a loan to account for hi
feats of etrangth and endurance,

moment bewildering his opponents with
lithe, panther-like leaps, and tha next
crushing his way through a maa of

enraged bull. On great American coach

played amateur ball under this name,
they politely requewt that its use by any
other team be discontinued. Any team In
or out of the city weighing 150 pounds
can get a game with the original "Do
