Special to Tho ChieftAin:
Fowler. Colo, Dec. 9.-Fowler
started this years basket ball season
with a double victory. The Fowler
girls team defeated the strong team
from Victor As to while the Fowler
boys five won from Las Animas 32-12.
1t was the first defeat that the
Victor girls basket ball team has suf-
fered in three years and their initial
set back this year in their efforts TO
eliminate La Junta for this years
championship. La Junta won the
honors in 1920 and will be the op-
poncnts of the Victor team today. To
the long trip made by the Victor team
in autos to Fowler was attributed
their poor showing and the one sided
score.
The Fowler boys Team defeated
Las Animas thru superior teamwork
and the fauitlcss ability in passing the
ball which was for the largest periods
of the game in Fowlcr's territory.

ference tilt of the year with the strong
Crowley team. of exceptional Arkan-
sas Valley talent
Tho probable lineup for Centennial
in their initial game will be: Chilson,

ed Gardino is sure to be seen in one
of the forward positions, with Mouiton

position. The coach hopes to be able
to use several OF his second string
players in order to get line on them
in action. Chilson Is tho only letter
man on the five this year. McQuatd is
noe included In the present Centennial
lineup.
Central High basket ball team who
OPPOSE Crowley last night. and to-

CHICAGO GRAINS

Chicago, ILL.,. Dec. 9.-Esuropean buy
ing on large scale, altho devoted
mostly to Canadian offerings had a
bullish influence today on the wheat
market here. Prices closed firm Nc to
Ike net higher with May 31.15 to
sl.lo1s and July s1.o3ls to $1,o3ss. Corn
finished NC off to shade advance
and oats unchanged to nc lower.
In provisions the outcome varied
from &c decline to a gain of zoe.
Estimates OF the amount OF wheat
bought for Europe today ran, above
l5O0,000 bushels and gossip was cur
rent that there had been a resumption
of orders from Germany. 1t was said
that one exporter had alone received
seven cable messages from Germany
asking for offers or bidding for
wheat. corn or rye. Erroneous reports
that Germany had been granted
moratorium counted also at times as a
Stimulus to bullish sentiment and tend
ed to make pit shorts run to cover.
especially near tho end of tho session.
Earlier however upturns in price led to
much profittaking by longs. The chief
factor which Induced a willingness to
realize on holdings was knowledge that
receipts at Minneapolis and Kansas
City today appeared sufficient to as
sure at least for the present a plenti-
ful supply to domestic consumers.
Corn and oats were stcadied by the
relative frmness of wheat Besides
export demand for corn continued on
fairly liberal scale.
Provisions averaged higher with
hogs.

curate and careful. The game was IN

Badovinac did some excellent guard
ing and also managed to score few
free throws and foul goals during the
game. Butts starred for the Wild
cat defense. Hughes was without
doubt the fastest player on the floor
and did some clever work with the
sphere. His offensive work was sec
onded by Simpson. one of the coming
athletes Of the school. Simpson was in
the game for about ten minutes during
the second half and succeeded in scor-
ing 10 OF the 13 points made that half.
