Test Sleeping
Sickness Cure
Doctors Believe Drug Gives
Hope of Relief From
Scourge of Africa.

NEW YORK.
ylbutyric acid is a long name, but it
gives hope of a short cure for the
scourge of Africa, sleeping sick
ness.
The new drug, on which a report
appeared in Science" an official
journal of American scientists, Will
be every important" commercially
in Africa if it is as ~efficacious in the
treatment of livestock as current re-
suits indicate, officials of the United
States public health service said at
Baltimore.
The compound, composed OF ar
senic, butyric acid and another ele-
ment, was developed in collaboration
by DR.. Harry Eagle, DR.. G. o. Doak,
DR.. H. G.. Steinman and DR.. H. j.
Magnuson, medical researchers OF
the public health service in the
agency's venereal disease research
and postgraduate training center at
Johns Hopkins university, Balti-
more.
Tried Out in Africa.
Last summer, DR.. Eagle took it
abroad and used it for Wholesale
experiments in cooperation with the
sleeping sickness services of the
Gold Coast, Nigeria, the Belgian
Congo and the British forces in West
Africa.
More than 200 human patients
were treated with seeming success
in the field trial, and it is expected
that the study ultimately will include
more than 1000 persons treated.
Similar experiments are planned for
Northern Rhodesia, French West AT
RIGA, French Equatorial Africa and
Sierra Leone. The wide geographic
distribution of the cases treated as
sured the inclusion of a variety of
strains of the trypanosomes, the
misunderstanding organism carried
by the tsetse fly.
African sleeping sickness makes
large areas of the continent unin-
habitable. If the new treatment is
a cure-and the eXperimenters will
not say it is until they have had a
year to observe the apparent cures
will have the advantage of cur
ing in two weeks or less a disease
that formerly required three or four
months of laborious treatment. This
would facilitate mass treatments.
Holds Limited Promise.
The compound holds promise thus
far only in cases where treatment is
applied early. Where the brain and
central system have be-
come affected there is much less
hope of lasting good results.
Results also indicate that the drug
may not be effective against some
forms of trypanosomiasis-the scien-
tifc name for the disease-appear-
ing in animals. Most of the humans
who received experimental treat
ment were African natives, men,
bers of various Negro tribes, but the
experimenters said that results
would be equally good among other
races.
African sleeping sickness has no
relation to what is popularity called
sleeping sickness in the United
States - epidemic encephalitis, or
encephalitis lethargica - which is
caused by some yet-undiscovered
virus.
There is, however, a closely relat-
ed disease, also believed to be car
ried by a fly, in South America, but
the health services researches have
not yet extended there.

SPORTS IN SHORTS

One of the hottest championship
races in many a year has developed
this fall in the Western Buckeye
league, and altho the Bluffton High
Pirates are virtually eliminated as
title contenders they remain in the
thick of the battle for runner up
honors At present Van Vert
and st. Marys are the only remaining
undefeated teams, both in league and
outside play, and their meeting in two
weeks will be one for the books i. ~. d.
Both defeated Bluffton by the same
score, % to 0, the only setbacks incl
dentally that the Pirates have suff-
cred in the league.
Van Vert last week handed Wapa-
koneta's Indians their first defeat of
the year, 81 to Z, and the latter outfit,
opposing Bluffton here Thursday
night, will be aching to break back
into the winning column =. Buttons
Pirates, on the other hand, also have

chance to stay in the running for q
chance at the runnerup position
Bluffton's present record is two win,
and two losses in loop competition.
One thing in Buttons favor this
week is the fact that the locals long
have held a jinx over Wapakoneta,

the Indians been able to defeat the
Pirates two years in succession

Bluffton College Again Loses To
Ohio Northern Eleven, 21-0, At Ada

For the second Saturday in row,
Ohio Northern defeated Bluffton coll
lege by a margin of three touch
downs, with 20 to 0 victory over
the Beavers, in an O. n. U. Home
coming attraction at Ada, last Sat-
urday afternoon.
A week earlier the Bears had
beaten Bluffton at Harmon field, 20
to 0, and they virtually duplicated
the stunt last Saturday to demon
strate that lightning can strike
twice in the same place"
In another respect the story was
the same, for all of Northern's scor-
ing came in the first two quarters,
and from halftime on the short-man-
ned Bluffton squad battled their foes
on even terms.

Bluffton High Gridders Will Play
Wapakoneta Here Thursday Night

Wtpakoneta's high-scoring eleven

choice in the tilt.
1t will be the local crews last
home game of the season.

Wapakoneta beat Ada, II to 7, a

Quarterback Lewis Good ran %
yards around end for the first touch
down, and scored again in the Sec
ond quarter after a recovered Bluff
ton tumble had put the Bears in
scoring position. Jack Wilson added
the third touchdown by intercepting
Bluffton pass and running 81

AT the close of the tilt, the Beav-
ers were in scoring territory after
marching from their own 81 to the
Ada 12-yard line, but the gun cut
short their chance of scoring.

st. Marys Trounces Bluffton High
Eleven, 25-O Score, In League Game

st. Marys, defending Western
Buckeye league champions, had too
much power for Bluffton Highs
lighter eleven last Friday night at
Harmon field, and walloped the Pi-
rates, % to 0, for the local crews
second league setback against the
same number of wins.
Scoring ineach period, the Rough
riders showed the class which has
carried them to four consecutive
wins so far this season, and their
rugged defensive play thwarted
every offensive threat of the Pirates.
Huwer, a speedy back with plenty
of drive, accounted for three of the
st. Marys touchdowns, and Wander
horst tailed the other. The first
three attempts at conversion failed,
but pass from Huwer to Berger

Should Wapakoneta win this year
it will be the first time in a long
series of competition dating back to
1922 that the Indians have beaten
Bluffton two years in succession.
Last year Wapakoneta was vic
torious over the Pirates, 30 to O, but
the victory marked only the fifth
time in the 17-game series that the
Indians were able to take the decis-
ion. Since 1922, the Pirates have
won Il of the contests, and another
ended in a Go tie.
Both teams will be on fire for this
weeks meeting, for Wapakoneta has
suffered only one setback in league
play so far, and Bluffton has been
beaten twice.

CANNES Win Added Respect For
Contribution On War Front
And Home Front

After 80 months of war the pres
tige of the dog in America is at a
new high, states a report Of the
Gaines Dog Research Center, New
York City.
Principal reason for this, of course.
is the outstanding contribution made
by dogs on every front where Amer
leans are fighting. They serve in many
branches Of the armed services-as
sentry and attack dogs, messenger
dogs, scout dogs, Red Cross dogs,
sledge dogs and pack dogs. Already
many Of the dogs have given their
lives in the performance OF their du-
ties and in order to save the lives Of
the men to whom they were assigned.
But Americas dogs are serving
their country equally well on the
home front. Their companionship il
stimulus to morale in the home.
They are helping fill that empty
place in the family circle. and they
are protecting homes from which
men have gone to war. An estimated
IS million dogs are in Americas
homes today.
Just how integral a part OF the
home the dog has become IS indi-
Gated in a recent survey which
showed that AZ per cent Of Americas
