meeting of the morning session here
today. Summer baseball" the Zig
feature of the meeting, is expected TO

The Ohio school representatives all.
addressed the conference. They set
forth that about $500 students were
enrolled in their school, and athletics
were given good support. No final
answer was given them.
Many rumors We're current about the
readmission of Michigan, which left
the conference in 1906 following a
misunderstanding. Although the insti-
tuition had no representatives at the
morning session, it was said Ohio men
are ready to urge the readmission of
Michigan and making the conference
the 'Tbig ten" body. Michigan and
Ohio competed athletics many years.

was fairly large and undertone to the

with continued firm market that mill

have been out OF the market so long
it, looks as though they would nave
to come sooner or later. The hour
demand is likely to improve. We be-
lfeye the amount of wheat in farmers
hands, both in the northwest n
southwest is small. 1t looks as though
the market is shaping for an advance

MIR. Turner's accounts show that

been his occasional trips to nearby

places show how the amusement is
appreciated where they do not have
