NiGANS PLAY OSkY
SECOND.

The regulars of the Ottumwa high
school basketball team will journey to
Grinnell Friday, where they will meet
the high school team. The Grinnell
quintet was defeated some time ago by
the Oskalosa five but other than that
there is little means of comparing the
locals with them for they do not play
against the same opponents.
The Yannigans, or as they prefer to
be known. the Reserves, will come to
grips with the seconds at Oskaloosa.
There is certainly one thing about the
locals this year that is noticeable and
that is, they simply will not quit be-
cause of defeats. Luck to the sec

The Grinnell game win no doubt be
one of the fastest games on the sched-
ule and it is regretted that it is not to
be played here. that is. for the benefit
of the local fans Ottumwa and Grin.

opponent which the locals have.
The Red and White five has been
working out all this week for the Grin

their work amount to something Fri.

their speed and team work especially,
and if they can only get their basket
eyes Grinnell will have something to
worry about. Pete Haselt!ne v-as,a

Grain Review

Chicago. Feb. 15.-Fresh declines IN
the value of wheat resulted today from
the tie un Of railway freight traffic ano
from the chances Of a complete rupture
with Germany. Selling which was per-
sstent, received additional stimulus
from reports that the drought in Ok
lahoma had been thoroughly broken.
Estimates however that farm reserves
of wheat were scarcely more than nail
as large as year ago helped in meas.
ure to check the downward s1de OF
prices The opening which ranged from
Nc to 1Ac lower. with May at $l.1OR
to $1.71 and July at s1.A6X to STAT was
followed by moderate further setback
and then something of a rally.
Subsequently, the market bulged IN
response to word. from New York that
Great Britain would cut down imports
Of cotton and would use for grain and
munitions the vessel room thus made
available The entente allies We're re-
ported to be inquiring on the PACING
coast for $4,000 tons of wheat 1t was
said also that the Netherlands govern
ment had settled freight difficulties,
and would open bids for flour on Feb
ruary 81 The close was strong, % to
3hc net higher with May at $1.74ss to
$174N and July at s1.49A to $1.4sk.
Mild weather had a bearish effect on
corn. Besides the difficulty Of making
shipments from here acted as weight
on prices. After opening u q NC to 1sc
lower, the market underwent an addi-
tional sag beofre beginning to recover.
Later the renewal Of wheat strength
gave corn an upward swing. The close
was nervous at nc to cent advance.
Oats weakened with other creals.
Buyers were scarce.
Heaviness was the rule in provisions.
Lower quotations on hogs and grain
tended to curtail demand.
