lenge the winner of the Morrissey-
Conley bout. Johnny will remain

Illinois Coach Has Brand
New Idea for Football
Coach zuppke of the University Of
Illinois football team is an original
cuss.
The Illinois mentor has added Dr.
Coleman r. Griffith, an associate pro-
fessor in psychology at the university,
to the faculty advisory board on attn
letics.
For years athletic teams at the
University of Illinois have worn dark
blue jerseys. It is with the dress OF
the athletes that Zuppke desires 10
experiment.
Last season when Illinois met ONO
in the final game of the season the
eleven had not won game, in TACT
had not scored touchdown against
a Western Conference eleven.
When the Illinois team trott6d en-
the field the spectators first gasped,
then laughed.
Instead of the usual blue Jersey
and regulation headgear of black or
tan leather, the Illinois athletes from
the waist line UP were conglomera-
tion of bright yellow and black
You could have seen them a nllle

achieving greater heights on the ball
field.
Flatfootedness at one time threat
ened to end Joe's career. A couple of
years spent in the army greatly inn
proved his physical condition.
The Boston Red Sox. who trained
at Hot Springs this year, have proved
they can hit. There isn't much speed
on the club. In commenting on this
feature the lack of speed, Harris has
always been the target for the rest Of
the team.
when Joe get on, and he is on
most Of the time, the bases are
clogged," is the way the Red Sox put
it. mo wonder they call us slow"
Recently, in returning to the hotel
after one of the exhibition games,
Harris, in the lead, noticed sign
reading:
"siow moving teams keep to the
right"
Joe figured this was his chance to
even up.
"This way. fellows" yelled Harris,
as he swerved off to the right on the
new course, "the folks down this way
know all about the Red Sox.'
Arizona republican., 1922-04-07

Zuppke wanted Illinois won that
game, upset the dope and Kept Ohio
State from winning another Big Ten
championship.
Illinois made spectacular forward
pass in that game that decided the
issue Zuppke believes the bright
yellow color that adorned the head-
gear and jersey was largely response
bic for the success of the winning
play.
This fall Zuppke is going even fur
ther. This fall the headgears and jer-
seys will be blending of orange,
canary yellow and white.
The change is ordered by the SIM
pie physiological fact that, in look
ing from the corner of the eye, it has
been proved that only certain colors
are visible.
Thus the football star in picking a
man for a pass will be greatly aided
by the rainbowlike dress of his team
mates.

FINANCIAL AND MARKET NEWS
CHICAGO BOARD

CHICAG, April Wheat averaged
moderately higher in price today ow-
ing more or less to unfavorable crop
reports from the southwest and to
Ifirmness of quotations at Liverpool.
The closing here was unsettled at u
to 1ss net gain, with May $1.sOA to
$1.30ss and July S11SZ to $1.19.
Corn finished as to Ia higher, oats
up u to q and provisions varying
from unchanged figures to IL cents
decline
According to a prominent expert,
the winter wheat crop southwest is
in general very late and likely to
show rapid deterioration il the wealth
er in May proves as dry as usual.
With such an opinion receiving gen
eral attention and with the Liverpool
market failing to reflect yesterdays S
weakness on this side of the Atlantic,
the market tended upward at the
opening and displayed evident power
to rally from subsequent breaks. In
creasing storage of wheat here, how
ever, led to Il decided setback at one
time in price of May delivery, which
went to about II cents over July,
compared with Is cents over earlier
in the week
Estimates We're current that Eng
land would take 100000 bushels of
Canadian wheat weekly for the next
is weeks There was talk also that
Germany had about completed a
large credit in Argentine to purchase
grain and wheat.
Wet weather was largely respon-
slDle tor upturns in the value of corn
and oats. The seaboard advised that
fair amount both of corn and oats
had been disposed of for export.
Provisions lacked support despite
higher quotations on hogs. Small
ness OF provision shipments from
here compared with a year ago was a
weakening factor
