 Bulldogs

Auburn Plainsmen yesterday after noon triumphed over the Howard College Bulldog baseball team on the latter's home grounds by the score of to 3. The game was fast and snappy, and fought despite the seemingly one sided score.
 Auburn earned only four of the nine runs, the other five resulting from boobies and errors on the part of the Bulldogs King pitched a pretty nice game for~Howard, but ragged support behind him by his team mates cost him the game.
 Ollinger pitched in fine fashion for Auburn. He allowed the Bulldogs but two hits. He struck out six men, while King whiffed thirteen Tiger batsmen.
 There was little slugging in the battle on Towards campus yesterday. Fulgum, Auburn, was the only bats man to get two hits, while Creel slashed out the only extra base hit, two-bagger. The game was featured by long running catches by Acton and Roberts. R. H. E. AupurH ..'....'.......... Howard .................... 8 2 5

NEGLECTED COUGHS AND
 COLDS ARE DANGEROUS
LADY IN BROOKLYN, N. Y., NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH

If people would only learn the folly of neglectingl a cough or cold much suffering could be averted and the de- velopment of many fatal diseases pre- vented
 The experience of Mrs R. S Peder- sen, 129 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y, merely emphasizes the neces- sity of having the proper medicine on hand for such emergencies. She writes
 "One winter I had a severe cold. doctored myself for several weeks with various pills. Finally, I was forced to go to bed with heavy cold in chest and head I had good attack of Lagrippe with large Jumps in my neck My father persuaded me to take Pe-ru-na and I was out of bed in two weeks. I continued the remedy for several weeks and feel better than ever. Pe-ru-na has also releived me of pains in the back and sides. I all ways recommend Pe-ru-na and my father is constant user.'
 Pe-ru-na, being tonic laxative. reg ulates the digestion, enriches the blood, tones up the nerves and carries it's soothing, healing influence to the irritated, congested. mucous mem branes in all parts of the body. It is very beneficial after protracted illness or an attack of grip or Spanish Influ- enza to restore strength and vigor to the wasted body.
 Do not fool with a cold or any other catarrhal disease. It is dangerous. Get the right remedy in the A-st place. the remedy that for fifty years has been known as a successful treat ment for catarrh.
 Your dealer handles Pe-ru-na in both tablet and liquid form.--Adv.

She Has Gained 36 Pounds By Taking Tanlac and Now Weighs 115 Lbs Says Tanlac Has Been the Greatest Blessing of Her Life. x s

q weighed only seventy nine but now l weigh one hundred and fifteen and am feeling better than have in seven years was the unusual statement made by Mrs. Lucille Hix- son. living at 2032 Broadway, Kansas City, Mo, a few days ago.
 Before I began taking Tanlac," continued Mrs Hxson, T had become so weak from seven years of suffer ing that at times l wasn't able to stand on my feet What l ate nearly always disagreed with me and made gas form so bad that I could hardly get my breath. I was badly constpated and had a pain across the small of my back and my nerves were upset. I was troubled with dull headaches just about all the time and often I had fainting, dizzy spells and I was never able to walk any distance before I felt exhausted
 My uncle recommended Tanlac to me and now since it has entirely overcome my troubles I will never get through praising it. I am not trou- bled with indigestion or gas at all and I am eating anything and everything want and digesting it perfectly. Headaches and dizzy spells have all left me and my constipated condition has been relieved. My nerves are in fine condition and the pain across the small of my back has disappeared al- together I have gained thirty-six pounds in weight, can do my house.

America, Old Confederate
 Blockade Runner, Is Still
 Afoaf; Won Famous Cup

a distance of fifty-three miles, in which seven other schooners and seven cutters or sloops started Tie start was off the clubhouse at Cowes at 10 a. m., and the America did not finish until S:35 that night, with the cutter Aurora eight min utes astern and the rest of the field badly strung out and many out of the race and the next day came down from Osborne house to inspect the winning yacht,
 Then began the adventurous years. After some racing and some cruising. in the Mediterranean, under Lord Blac- quiere's flag, during which she rode out storms in which bigger vessels were lost, the America came back to England and was purchased and raced by Lord Tenn pleton. She was subsequently, laid up in the yard of builder named Pitcher at Northfleet for three years, and then sold to yachtsman named Decie. She was rebuilt to some extent and renamed the Camilla. Under Decie's flag she raced with indifferent success, cruised to the West Indies and in the first year of the Civil war sailed to Mobile, Ala, where she was sold to Confederate owner and began a career of blockade running un-' der the name Memphis.
 It was said that in this trade the former America often outfooted the Yankee gun boats and frigates cruising along the coast. On one occasion, however, when closely pursued by the famous Wabash, she put into the St. Johns river, Florida, struck ledge and sank. She lay there, submerged to the mastheads, until after the Civil war, when she was raised. When the identity of the vessel was discovered she was put in sea trim again, with her original name restored, and turned over to the Annapolis authorities as train
 ing ship. At times she was used as q tender to such noted old warships as the Marion, Macedonian and Savannah.

Boston, March H-Alfhough thousands of sport loving Americans are looking forward to the international yacht races for the Americas S cup to be held in July, probably only few recall the fact that the schooner America. the vessel wnlcn actually won the trophy, is still afloat. The historic little ship, which in 1851 sailed across to England and captured the Royal Yacht Squadron cup, which has since been held here. is owned by Con- gressman Butler Ames and is tied up at a remote wharf near the Chelsea bridge Boston. Very few of the stout old origi- nal timbers remain in the weather beaten hull of the two-master, but there she is, still the America, symbol of superiority in Yankee yacht building and seaman ship.
 "Old Dick" Brown was the sailing mas ter of the America when the adventurous schooner headed out past Sandy Hook on June IT. 1851, and squared away for her transatlantic passage.
 Commodore Stevens went over by steamship and joined the vessel, which proceeded to Cowes, Isle of Wight, his- toric British yaching center, when she had been put in racing trim.
 fmbued with the aggressive sporting spirit of those days, Commodore Stevens Is said to have offered to match the America against any British schooner for almost any amount of money, but the 6ritishers seemed little "Ieary," as the yachtsmen say, after seeing the Yankee workout against the fast cutter, Laver- rock, which Vshe drubbed in proper style. At any rate,s nothing developed in the way of a race until August 2, when the race for the "One Hundrey Guinea Cup, now the most coveted emblem of the ssa," was decided.
 Commodore Stevens decided to enter for this contest around the Isle of Wight,

London, March 27.-Cam bridge beat Oxford in England's favorite aauatic event before probably the largest con- course of people which ever witnessed ' British boat race today. The betting was to in favor of Cambridge, all fkough until this week Oxford. with the advantage of two veteran Aus tralisn rowers who are Rhodes scho1- ars, was the favorite.
 Cambridge won the toss4 took the sheltered side of the river and never allowed the dark blues to get a nose ahead Of them throughout the four miles. The light blue led by a length at the half-mile post, but Oxford re- duced the lead to half length at the mile mark. Cambridge led by two lengths al the halfway post and bv three lengths when three miles had been covered. Oxford made hard spurt in the last half mile, cutting down Cambridge's lead, but finally feIi back to four lengths
 Although the four and quarter-mile contest was not to start until late in the afternoon, throngs of rowing en- thusiasts and supporters of the two universities were vending their way toward the river immediately after the luncheon hour.
 Every method of trans portation was taxed to c>r>Sci&y; thousands travelled by trains. buses and motor cars to the long stretches of the Thames for the regatta. Weath/ conditions were con sidered favorable for both the crews and spectators. The afternoon was mild and cloudy
 The combination of Saturdays half holiday and the spectacular free sport Ing event within short distance of the , city drew thousands of east enders and suburbanites 10 the course. There was a revival Of the varsity color dis play whicp always marks the regatta and the edgec of the river were banked with canoe and houseboat parties.

 at the time. /
 Well, I'll be a good fellow and
 III let you have the horse for s5,' | the owner replied.
 And the deal was made, whereby
 honig parted with s for supposed
 dog and became owner of a horse called All Black
 l A race meeting was on at the time
 at the old Guttenberg track in New
 Jersey, just opposite New York City.
 Honig got enough money together by l one means or another to ship his horse
 tc that track and provided transporta- ton for his son, Peach Honig, and l Himself. Arriving there. he borrowed
 money from a few friends who were
 at the track and accumulated bank 1 toll of $20O.
 A few days later the name of All black appeared in the entries. On
 lace day the bookmakers opened their
 states by quoting 100 to 1 against All i hlack. Finally one of them. in a spirit Of joke. changed the marking to 500 to l. The other bookies followed suit All Black in their opinion, was B. mutt of the worst variety
 Honig and his son, Peach HoniS. l quietly circulated around the betting ring and bet $100--the remainder of 1 the bankroll--on All Black to win. 1 The fieldsgot away to an even break l A quarter of mile from the starting
 the black horse shot to the front The farther he ran the greater be- 1 came his lead. And he ran past the finish line leader by ten lengths.

Black continued to be the consricuous winner in the Honig stable and. won more than dozen races during the
 sea ason. Honig's plunging on All Black alone netted him winnings Of nearly $500, 900.
 The fact that Hong was wrecking
 the bookmakers was something not at l all pleasing to some of the officials of the track. who were said to be in
 "cohoots' with the bookies. And so one day Honig was summoned by the 1 judges and told to keep off the track that his future entries would not be ] accepted Honig at once inserted big advertise
 ments in the New York papers stating , that he was going to open track at l Gloucester. Mass, where "An who want an honest race for honest money are invited.' True to his word, Honig l built race track there and opened his
 track. He damned more than a half million dollars into the enterprise. When the fight between the Honig track at Gloucester and the Gutenberg
 track had reached it's climax Honigs investment in the battle was more than a million dollars. But Honia
 won. He made Gloucester the big
 race track of New England and sue

Famous Kentucky Derby h
 May, At Churchill D6wns,
 Open Race With IO7 Ponies

Louisville. Ky, March z7.-(Special.)- )- With Man o' War out of the way, it is generally, agreed that the Kentucky Derby, which will be renewed at Church. i'll Downs in May with a gross value of S36000 or s3S.O 900, is an open race. Not all of the 107 three-year-old colts and Allies that have been nominated for the derby may be considered as having chances, but dozen or more of the best look to be pretty we'll matched and among the best are five or six foreign bred colts and fillies of the highest quality. So it is easily possible that this years derby may go to a foreign three-year-old, as did the derbys of 1916 and 1917, which were won by George Smith and Omar Khayyam.
 We do not, as a rule, think of George Smith as being a foreigner in blood, be- cause he was foaled in the United States. He was an outlander by blood, never theless; for his sire, Out of Reach, was a son of Persimmon and imported Sand

Fly and his dam, Consuelo 2d, although American bred herself was a daughter of Bradwardine and Miss Pepper, she q daughter of Pepper and Salt. Oman Khayyam, as everyone knows, or should know, was bred in Great Britain, his sire having been Marco and his dam Lisma. and brought to this country by c. K. G. Billings
 There are among the best of the for eign-bred colts and Allies in this year s derby, Donnaconna, Constancy, Cleo patra, King Thrush, Prince Pal, St. AL Ian, Krewer. Rouleau, Royal Jester, sFai- son Dore, Same Boy, Mess Kit, etc. horses that showed better as two-year- olds than did either George Smith or Omar Khayyam. George Smith was rather an cratic performer as a two- year-old, although he discovered high speed on occasions. Omar Khayyam was an out-and-out failure, probably because he was bucking his shins pretty much throughout the season of 1916.

 L0CiHE death not so long ago of Dan
 Honig recalled one of the most re-
 markable romances of the Amer ican turf.
 A resident of St. Louis, Honig was horse enthusiast from boyhood. One ot his earliest ambitions was to own string of thoroughbreds. But Honig lacked the funds and 1t seemed that his dreams never would come true. ct in the end he became the owner of powerful string of thoroughbreds and also of a very successful racetrack. | One day a horse owner, knowing that Honig wanted to own race horse, got in touch with Dan and gave Tim a hard luck story. He told Dan that he had a horse that never won a race. but was in good shape and some dayfmay grab a purse.
 T can't keep him any longer be- cause I can't pay to feed him" he told lionig. q will sell him to you for s25"

Oxford Is
 WinnerIn
 Field Meet
By Associated Pros.


 London, March 27.-Two American Rhodes scholars helped Oxford ma teriaily in defeating Cam bridge here this afternoon in the first dual inter- varsity track and field games to be held by the rival universities since March, 1914. The final score was OK ford, , E events: Cambridge, AZ events. First places only counting in the meet.
 H. & White of Bowdoin College won the running high jump for Oxford in easy fashion with a winning leap of feet 7 inches and immediately fol- lowed with an exhibition jump in hich he added two inches to his per- formance. l.. J. Feather, an American Rhodes scholar from the University of Utah, won the hammer throw for the dark blue with a throw of 100 feet IL inches. This was the one upset of the meet, for Oxford had expected to fin the place with Noakes, who had been throwing the hammer better than 110 feet in preliminary trials
 B. c. D. Rudd, from South Africa Was also strong factor in the OK ford victory, winning the half-mile run m l minute 57 2-5 seconds and running dead heat with Butler of Cambridge in the 4f0-yard dash in the excellent tune of 493-5 seconds. Abrahams of (ambridge was the only double winner of the day, capturing both the 10O- yard sprint and the broad jump There vas no notable performances, consid- cred from record standpoint, except the running of Montague of Oxford in the hree-mile race. His time of IA minutes 45 S-5 seconds cut s6 2-5 sec ends from the previous track record.
