IOWA ALL-STARS
BEAT ARMY MEN 20

Des Moines, Dec10-Camp Dodge's
football team met it's first defeat OF
the season Saturday afternoon when
it tackled the Iowa all-state collegiate
and university team at Drake stadium.
The score was Z to 0.
The game was remarkable In more
ways than one. 1t was probably the
first time in the middle west that a
mythical all-state team, supposed to
include the eleven best players OF
the season, really got together and
played football. 1t was played while
the temperature stood at below
zero and on snow covered field.
A blocked punt nailed by Reed OF
Iowa behind the Army goal in the
third period resulted in the only
touchdown. Johnson kicked goal.
The players wore gloves throughout
the game. but played full fifteen min
ute quarters.

GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago, Dec. 10.-Corn prices devel-
oped some strength today as a result OF
cold weather which seemed likely to re-
tard the movement of the crop The
severe fall in Temperatures was said to
be against efficient operations of the
railroads and also to be hampering the
transfer of grain from farms to country
elevators. Buying here. however, was
not of an aggressive character. Open
ing prices which ranged from the same
as Saturdays finish to sc higher
with January s1.2OA to s1.2oS and
May $1.1Sh to s1.1S& were followed by
moderate gains all around.
Later. the market underwent a set
back owing to prospects that the en-
barge on shipments to the east would
lead in the near future to a rapid ac-
emulation Of stocks here. The close
was unsettled, January $1.20A to u
and May, s1.19 with the market as
whole u c lower to nc advance. COM
pared with Saturdays finish,
Oats hardened with corn. The de-
mand was chiefly from scattered
shorts.
Higher quotations on hogs lifted pro-
visions. Besides shipments of meats
showed considerable increase.
