War Bond Bidders To Get Free Horses At Rockingham

salem, N. IT., oct. 20 - The Rock inQhaYn Park Fall meeting will come to its half-way mark tomorrow, and the day will be celebrated with the first of the old-fashioned horse auc- tions, designed to promote the sale of War Bonds.
 Two beautifully bred youngsters will be given away to the pur. chasers of the largest amount ot War Bonds, and 1t could be that they will be new editions of Alsab or Spiral Pass or Medid, bargain basement thoroughbreds now worth their weight in gold, for the two were born to be champions.
 one of them is @ yearling donated by Benjamin F. Lister, Providence sportsman and textile manufac- turer. He is 6 colt by Boatswain out of My Date, and that is a guarantee of his bright promise. My Date was an excellent racing mare in her days of action, and Boatswain, a son of Man O War, ran third in the Preakness.
 The other is valdina Bahram, a two.year old donated by Emerson F. Woodawrd, master of the Valdina Farms. He is @ bay colt by Bah- ram-Love Tie, and his blood is the richest of the English turf. MT. woodward, Texas oil millionaire, re- fused a cash offer of $500 for him; then gave him to Lou Smith to be led into the auction ring and given away once again to the purchaser oi bonds.
 His sire, Bahran1, won many oi the most important races in Eng land and his dam, Love Tie, waS one of the finest racing mares thaI country ever has known. He himself
 was foaled in England of this aris'
 tocratic lineage, yet because ot tn' necessity of purchasing War Bonds
 he will be given away.
 The auction will start at noon II
 the Rockingham paddock, and VII be completed by one o'clock, and
 is the hope of Lou Smith, who con ceived c plan which since has beel copied in several other parts ot u country.
