CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, Dec. 19.-Wheat took an un ward swing in price today largely as q result of indications of export business at Winnipeg. The market here closed nrm, l 1-S to 2 1-4c net higher. with May 1.14 5-S to 1.14 3-4 and July 1.04 to l.e4 Is. Corn gained 1-2 to 3-4c and oats If 10 1-2 5-sc. In provisions the outcome varied from five cents decline to 17 cents advance.
 At first, the wheat market showed lack of support, with many traders cor rectlv anticipating an increase of the U. s. visible supply total. Gradually. however. attention veered at the ascent e values al Winnipeg, and there was a display of enlarged buying power here based on gossip that the Winnipeg ad- vance reflected European demand. Fore casts of cold wave which might catch a good deal of the domestic winter crop without snow protection tended also to stimulate some buying. Furthermore. reports were current that rains were in- terfering with the harvest In Argentina, Under such circumstances. the market finished at practically the top figures of the day.
 though early fin the session the bulls had been at q disadvantage owing to big receipts Of corn. On the other hand rural offerings Of corn were reported as small despite expected colder weather promising 10 harden muddy roads.
 Provisions were irregular, nuctuatins chiefly according to changes in the hog market.

GRAND CIRCUIT MAY ADOPT 2-HEAT RULEI

ly after the session of major league
 magnates in New York
 Weiss has stated he will announce
 after the New. York session the name
 of New Haven 1922 manager. Ac- cording to the dope in the Elm City
 the days of Chief Bender are numbered. and he will not be at the mead Of
 the Indians again. While Bender is popular with the fans. it is said that the redskin and Weiss did not get along as tremendously as hoped for last season.
 There is no inkling who will be Ben der's successor, if the chief should be sidetracked. There have been mur-
 murs that ''Rube' Oldring, veteran big league outfielder who joined the Ben der tribe in midsummer, may be given the reins, but Weiss is mum on that point, also. Neither will Weiss say Bender will not be the manager. So, the official statement from Weiss suite
 of offices in Hotel Taft is stirring the old dame curiosity.
 Weiss, however, has hinted there's going to be a shakeup in the ranks, and in addition to Bender three of his | star players are likely to be seen in ac- ! ton elsewhere. The three mentioned l ei . d. A. ESlidS, DIIllldIlJ lNIletO6F, WnO 1 sticked for .295 last season; Neal Ball
 'brainiest second baseman' in the O.
 Neil circuit. who hit the ball for .S00 | and Earl Simpson, outfielder, who clouted the pill for .273.
 Simpson, in point of service, is the |. dean of the New Haven club, having 1 drawn his salary in the Elm City for six or seven seasons. He was also a member of the championship team in 1 1918. Nothing against Simpson, ex- | cept there's a feeling that he has been with the club too long and that a
 change would be mutually advanta- l geous.
 The same feeling prevails in the case ! of Neal Ball. He is still counted as
 being valuable player, but during ] the past two seasons Ball has been unmereifully ridden by some of the
 fans at intervals when the club was
 going bad. In the case of Shay, the ! shortstop, and Weiss are said to have | had several run-ins last season.

Baseball enthusiasts, seeking a req son for the dearth of trading of play CTS between Major League Clubs which marked last weeks gathering of the clans in New York, attribute it to the high prices paid for minors winch has thrown the market out of gear and has given the clug owners something to think about. The sensational sales made by Pacific Coast clubs to teams in the big circuits are believed by followers of the game to be responsi- ble for the lack of action
 The subject became a topic of the sport after the big league magnates had ended their sessions, and it was found from one major league to an other had been the outcome of the week.
 An illustration of the sentiment in regard to the decline in player trad ing was given by Ty Cobb, when he remarked that if man like Jimmy O'Conneu, who has been in minor lea que baseball for only two years was worth $75,000, what was Bob Veach, a proven .950 hitter and a ball hawk. worth on the open market

New York, Dec 1a-Five golf or ganizations using the public links of New York have been requested to ap- point representatives to meet early this week to protest against the increased locker and greens fees to be charged next season. While no public state ment has yet been made as 10 the amount of the increases, it is reported that the park commissioner proposes to raise the greens fees from $5 to $2O, and the locker fees from $5 and $f.5o for lower and upper lockers, respec- lively, to a flat rate of $10.
 The increased fees, according to c. M Atherton, chairman of the tourna- ment committee of the Newspaper mems Golf Club, would drive many players from the game because the cost would be prohibitive.
