FAST RUNNERS IN ROME
Former Cornell Star Winner in
600-Meter Race After
Hard Struggle.

NEW YORK. June 12-Prvate let
ters from Italy make mention OF re-
cent track meet held in Rome. Some
former prominent athletes figured in
what. in wartime. was q series Of
remarkable performances The
gameA which were designated A. an
international military track meet. at
tracted number of entries from
American college athletes attached to
the American aviation camp.
The latter entrants did not. how
ever. find the winning OF points or
places an easy affair. Several COM
petitors other than the Americans
proved to be exceptionally fast in the
various track events.
Lieut.. L. v. windnagle. the former
Cornell half-miler and championship
holder of 1916, won the 8oometer
run after a hard struggle against
Lieut.. Lunghi, who formerly ran for
the New York 1rtsh-American A. c.
and was holder Of the American and
Canadian half-mile record. Lunghi.
who is past thirty. was in splendid
physical condition and forced Wind
magic to travel at top speed to win.
The third runner to finish was an
Englishman named Hays. who had
never figured in running races pre-
vious to the war. Although in serv-
ice for three years. during which
time he had been gassed. shot through
tho leg and had his knee dislocated.
he was but a few PAGES in the rear of
Windnagle and Lunghi. This IS an
other indication of the physical con-
dition of the men who are playing
a part in the European war.
What may be expected Of some Of
these men in international athletics
after the present conflict is over can
be foreseen in the sprinting of Croc-
ci. an Italian, who won the hundred
meter race from an extremely fast
field in 104-5 seconds. Crocci's time
equals that made by the best of the
Olympic games sprinters at this dis
tance. Allowing for possible faulty
timing, his performance was a most
remarkable one In war time. when
the opportunity for special athletic
training is lost in the greater duties
which fall to the lot of soldiers.

Have you ever stopped to reason why

reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited. to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, q
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case 1t shows excellent re-
suits, as many Of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that l know Of
has so large a sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success Of DR..
kilmers Swamp. Root Is due TO the fact
that SO many people claim, it fulills al.
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur.

proposal with decision which not
only fulfills the expectations of sup
porters of diplomacy, but also dispels
the fears OF those who predicted he
would substitute victories at arms

no armistice can even be thought OF

ties on land and sea, one cannot be
considered unless II fully Is dictated

cause revolution in Germany.
