FILE - Jim Thorpe, the 61-year-old former Olympic athlete, gives a drop kicking exhibition at half-time of the Israeli-U.S. international soccer match at the Polo Grounds in New York City on Sept. 26, 1948. Jim Thorpe has been reinstated as the sole winner of the 1912 Olympic pentathlon and decathlon — nearly 110 years after being stripped of those gold medals for violations of strict amateurism rules of the time. The International Olympic Committee confirmed that an announcement was planned later Friday, July 15, 2022. (AP Photo, File)
