Good Old Home-Made

Much Better Than the Ready
Made Kind-EasiIy and
Cheaply Prepared

If you combined the curative prop
critics of every known "ready- made"
cough remedy you would hardly have
in them all. the curative power that
lie. in this simple "home made"
cough syrup, which takes only few
minutes to prepare.
Get from any druggist 21a ounces
of Pinex go cents WORTH, pour it
into q pint bottle and fill the bottle
with plain granulated sugar syrup.
The total cost is about 81 cents and
gives you a full pint of really
Better Cough Syrup
than you could buy ready made for
$3.50 Tastes pleasant and never
spoils.
This Pinex and sugar syrup prep
aration gets right at the cause of
cough and gives almost immediate
relief. 1t loosens the phlegm, stops
the nasty throat tickle and heals the
sore, irritated membranes that line
the throat, chest and bronchial tubes,
so gently and easily that it is really
astonishing. A days use will usually
overcome the ordinary cough, and for
bronchitis, Group. whooping cough and
bronchial asthma there is nothing
better.

MANY ATHLETES
NOW RESERVISTS
College Stars Training at
Newport Plan Football
Eleven

The reservists' regiment, which is
being trained for naval duty at New
port, r. l., contains some of the
greatest college and ex-college ath-
letes of the day, and, true to the
announcement of government offic-
ials, that athletics are to be encour-
aged among the soldiers and sailors,
teams in various branches of sports
are being formed.
A tentative array of talent for the
reservists' baseball nine shows the
names of Barrett, of Cornell, and
Keddle and Rois. of Dartmout, as
pitchers; Black, of Yale; Salmonsen,
of Dartmouth, and Goodspeed of
Princeton, as catchers; Luth, of the
Naval Academy; Shubert and Whit
ney, of Cornell; Gerrish and Stewart,
of Dartmouth, as infieders; Early,
Easton and Hutchinson, of Yale, and
+. Whitney, of Dartmouth, as out
fielders. In addition to these play
ers the baseball squad may be aug
mented by the arrival of other col
legiate stars before the summer sea-
son is well under way.
Plan Football Team
Plans for a football eleven next
fall, providing the members of the
reservists' regiment are not called
out. have already been made. Men,
bers of the regiment eligible for the
eleven are: Gennert, Princeton, GEN.
ter; Black, Yale, and Hogg, Prince
ton, guards; Gates, of Yale; Gilman,
of the Navy; Triet, of Dartmouth,
and Semmons, of Princeton, tackles;
Higginzotham, of Yale; Luth, of the

Thomas, of Princeton Hutchinson,
of Yale; Benedict, of Cornell, and the
Schuler brothers. also of Cornell, are
available for the backfeld positions
1t is said in college circles in the
East that this aggregation will make
one of the strongest teams of col
lege and eX-college players ever got
ten together outside of intercollegi-
ate circles.

Delaware River League
Throws Up the Sponge;
Will Try to Reorganize

Morrisville, Pa, June because
some of the managers refused TO
give a point over a dispute in the
schedule, the Delaware River Lea
que, one of the Oldest and foremost
semiprofessional leagues in this sec
tion, disbanded at a special meeting.
Mercer Auto Club withdrew and this
only left three clubs which made it
necessary for them to throw up the
sponge as far as the league was con-
eerned.
The league had every indication of
having prosperous year this sea-
son, but because too many of the
teams played in Trenton there has
been some little trouble all season
The league was organized ten years
ago, and played every season since
that time. The Mercer Auto and
Empire Tire clubs have disbanded,
but Morrisville and Globe Tire teams
have remained intact and will play
tball every Saturday for the remain
der of the season.
There is a move on foot to reor-
ganize the league with Morrisville,
Roebling, Florence and one team in
Trenton. There is also some talk of
making an effort to secure Riverside
and other South Jersey clubs, max
ing it a siX-club circuit. 1t is be-
lieved with such n circuit the league
would again create plenty of inter
est, and all the clubs would have a
successful season. The league was
for years composed of such a circuit,
but it gradually drifted toward Tren-
ton.
President Charles II. Heller, of
Morrisville, will receive applications
from any club desiring to enter the
the league and as soon as enough ap-
plications are in, a meeting will be
called. 1t is said Morrisville, Roeb-
ling and Florence have agreed to
such a combination, but it has not
been decided which Trenton club
will be admitted into the circuit.
