NEW TITLE IS CONFERRED0
 COL. COTWALS
Trail Blazers Honor Road Com mission Officer by Giving Him Name of Dog Musher Extraordinary"

In addition to the titles which he | bears as an officer in the United States army, and member of the Alaska road commission, etc., Col. J. c. GotWals may now add anothe CT row of capital letters after his name, to-wit: ID. M. E." meaning thereby Dog Musher Extraordinary The title had been bestowed on him by the Ophir Dog Mushers and Trail Break CTS Association, that body at recent meeting having declared by a unani- nous vote that the colonel by req son of his ability in breaking trails and handling dog teams should be awarded a Class A membership in the order
 The Kusko Times, published at McGrath, under the date of February 2S, last, gives the following account of the award:
 "At the last meeting of the Ophir Trail Breakers. and Dog Mushers' Association, Messrs. John Vognor, Sig Wig, Scotty Clark and Harry Martella, the committee on creden- tials, after Investigating the evidence of Owen Gray, Chris Nelson, Peter son, Smith and Seppala, who were on the trail at the time of Col Got walls strenuous forty-mile drive across country to the Nixon mines behind Seuallas sweepstakes team af fifteen Siberians, reported that the colonel had shown all the qualifica- tions necessary in handling a team under any circumstances, that he had qualified for any rough driving test, had shown a knowledge of the coun- try and conditions that entitled him to be, and it was decided that he be made a Class A member of the asso- citation and that certificate be granted him.
 Old-timers, who have followed the husky" teams over Alaskan trails when the snow lay deep on the trails, say that the colonel, even 1 though he has not seen a breakup on the Yukon, by winning the endorse ment of the dog musher tribe, has earned the right to drop from his name the title of "chechako". For be it known that driving dogs is more than a matter of having sound limbs, rugged constitution, determination, possession of ones natural faculties, wind to spare and to be able to speak English. In fact, the latter ac- complishment, if accomplishment it be, is subordinate to that of a wierd, wide, varied and terrific vocabulary,

MAKEPLEAF ASSISTANCE TO
 RUSSIAN GIRLS

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 20.- Russian girls belonging to cultured and formerly well-to-do families and who are prepared to enter college are walking the streets of Constantinople in an exhausted condition looking for work, according to c. o. Dunaway, executive secretary for the American College for Girls in Constantinople
 These girls came out of Russia with General WrangeTs army and are refu- gees, having lost what clothes and money they had during the flight They have sold their jewels and many of them have only one loaf of bread and two, at the most threes cups of coffee as food for one week.
 Twenty of these girls have been taken into the American College for Girls and the college has appealed to the American Central Committee for Russian Relief for aid in paying their tuition and buying them clothes. They are willing to work for their room and board and to repay this money as soon as they are able
 Dr. Mary Mills Patrick, president of the college, in asking for this aid, writes, Some of these Russian students come to us with horror and fear written in their faces and bear ing; sometimes a woman of nineteen or twenty with her face marked with lines like that of one far older.
 Some of them came to us without even a change of underclothing and one had not been able to regularly undress at night for more than year. It is hard to persuade them to accept gifts. They will not even confess their needs" Their entire expenses for the year will amont to approximately $500 including tuition, board, clothes and incidentals.

which is not limited to the meets and bounds of the ordinary and gar den varieties of dictionaries, whether they be English, Scotch, Irish French or other nationality.
 Trail breaking may be accom- plished by almost anyone sufficiently rugged in constitution, and the will to achieve. But dog musher, it is plain, is born "thataway," and be- comes more so by exercising his talent and his vocabulary.

PERDUE ANNOUNCES
 VOLS LINEUP

Nashville, Tenn, April g. Especially Manager Hub Pardue today officially announced the opening lineup of the Vols as follows:
 Frierson, right field
 Knaupp, ser ord base.
 Bradley, first base.
 Burke center field.
 Cunning, left field.
 Pope, shortstop.
 Matthews, third base.
 Jonnard, catcher.
 Payne, Statham or Wormouth, pitchers
 It was announced that Johnny Frier- son, former Memphis and Little Rock outfielder, has been signed to replace Bill Stellbauer, the Houston (Tex.) gardener, who signed a contract with the Vols and then packed his grip and beat 1t back to Texas without offer ing an explanation. .p..-
 Nashville, April 9.--(Special. J. With all players in sood condition and anxious to get under way, Hub Perdue will carry his 1921 Vols to Birmingham Tuesday night for the opening game of the season against Moley's Barons Wednesday. For sev- enteen years the noted Gallatin Squash has answered the call to arms on the diamond, but Wednesday Perdue will appear in championship game for the first time in his long career as diamond pilot.
 Those who know Hub are wont to crack a smile merely at the mention of his name. They know him as a big. genial sort of fellow with a joke for all occasions, but they can hardly pie ture him as manager. Yet Nashville fans who have seen him for years are confident that in Perdue the Vols have man who has earned the utmost con- fidence of his men and leader who can direct his club with hand as firm as his smile is wide As a manager, the Gsnatin Squash is far from a humorist, and he has shown this in more ways than one since the training season opened. His many years in minor and major ball have fully qualified him for the reins, and Nashville fans are looking forward to the most aggressive ball team representing the Tennessee capital since Bill Bernhard won the pennant from New Orleans in the Dell by single game in 1908.
 VOLS LOOK GOOD
 Tn so far as the actual prospects are concerned the Vols give every promise of ranking with the fighting club of the league. They have a pitching staff that will rank second to none in the circuit once it gets into the grind, an infleld with but single weak link, an outfield of three veterans and a catching staff we'll able to hold it's own with the leagues best. From a green, unpromis- ng team in the early spring, the Vols have developed into really formidable machine and should be heard from before the campaign is far under way.
 Fans who have long listened to the

 Mulvey, center field.

Left Side of InfieId Looks Wob- bly, on Defense, With Taylor out of the Game
By MARVIN MCCARTHY

With the opening of the Southern league season only three days off, the Baronial lineup to be pitted against that of the Vols Wednesday afternoon at Redwood park seems fairly well defined. With the exception of the pitchers, it is possible to tell almost to a man who will start the game for the Rarons.
 Following is the manner in which Boss Afolesworth will probably send his men to the barrier Wednesday afternoon:
 Stewart, 2b.
 Emery, If.
 Silva, Of.
 Bernsen. h.
 Clarke, If
 Croll, 3b. e@
 Heilman, ss.
 Gooch, c.
 Sharpe, Newton, whitehill or Morri- sen, p.
 The above lineup presents fairly strong attack, but the defense, parti- cularly on the left side of the infield, seems bit shaky. With Heilman and Kane, two young ball players, holding down shortstop and third base, respec- open to vicious attack by the Vols Wednesday. The absence of Tommy Tay- Tor, poppy third baseman from the Texas league, will be badly felt by the Barons Wednesday. Taylor is out of the game with split right hand, and it is hardly probable that he will be able to start the season for the Barons.
 Eleilman and Croll are promising ball players, but both lack experience to sue cessfully defend their portion of the in- field.
 STUFFY AT SECOND
 Stuffy Stewart at second base will probably act as steadying medium to Heilman and Kane to some extent. Stuf1y is a great infielder, and he should have one of his best seasons this year. Stewart is sure fielder and ordinarily hits the ball for a fair percentage.
 Dutch Bernsen, the veteran, has the call at first base. The reliable stick Of Dutch makes him one of the most highly respected batters in the Southern league His fielding is up to. standard, also, so the Barons may call themselves well taken care of in this section of the infield..
 Booby Gooch is expected to take care of the major portion of catching this year His understudy, Brandon, is ca pablo of stepping in at any moment and filling Bobby's shoes almost as well as Gooch himself. Moley is not looking for much trouble in the catching depart ment this season.
 OUTFIELD A RIDDLE
 In the outfield, it's a riddle. Of four good men, one must go, and, while one,
 ,fr1 Iad th4air jobs. it's a safe bet that Manager Moles- worth is having trouble picking the un- lucky fourth. Emery, Clarke and Silva are in condition and will probably start the game Wednesday, although Pug Al len may be sent in at one of the positions by the chubby cheftian, Molesworth.
 Any one of several hurlers stand 3
