 BE STAGED TODAY
Bill Coughlin, Birmingham Boy, Expected to Prove
 Brightest Star

Nashville. Tenn. May 15.-(Special.) Everything is in readiness for the an- nual Southern Inter Collegiate Ath- 1etic association meet tomorrow on Dudley field. Indications point to Vnn- derbilt, Georgetown, Sewanee, Missis- sippi and possibly Tulane being rep resented in the events.
 The preliminaries will be run tomor- row afternoon on Dudley field and the finals will take place Saturday.
 Odds are greatly in favor of Sewanee in the meet the mountain Tigers hav- ing the best track team in the south and incidently the best athletic organ ization in the history of the university. In Hammond and Caughlan the Tigers have two stars of first water, and although Hammond has been highly touted and is worthy of commenda- ton, Caughlan is expected to prove the star of the meet He hasn't the form of Hammond, but with continu- ous training is making a superior man. Upon these two athletes the Tigers lase their hopes for the championship.
 Vanderbilt can hardly be expected to give Sewanee a close fight for the ch1rlpii nship, but some dark horses may develop from among the othep southern teams entered The meet will be closely contested from all in- dications, and a great crowd is ex- pected.

 This is the first institution of this kind ever held in Butler county, and Prof. Pepper hopes to make it a permanent one.
 Tuesday was the last hog sales day of the Butler County Swine Growers association, and three carlots of hogs were placed on the market. They were bought by Edwin Waller of Greenville and were shipped to the Union stockyards at Montgomery.
 The market price for hogs is very high and the farmers of the county received approximately 19 cents per pound, which is an exceptionally good price. The Greenville public school will close on Tuesday for this session. In spite of the fact that the influenza epidemic caused the schools to be closed for about five weeks, practically all of this time was made up during the year by teach ing on holidays and Saturdays. With this handicap the school has done remark ably we'll and the faculty has been high
