Colby 'Harriers in
Good Form for Cross
Country Meet Friday
ciaI to Kennebec journal

Especial to kennepec Journal)
waterville, Oct. 30-The Colby
barriers are rapidly rounding into
shape for the coming Maine Inter-
COLLEGIATE Cross Country meet which
will be held in Waterville this week,
Friday. Coach Mike Ryan IL greatly
disappointed in the showing of his
charges since the race against Bos-
ton University last Saturday morn
ing and has been working them hard
all the present week.
Providing the weather is Of the
right variety, the coming meet on
Friday should be a fast one and a
difficult one to win as there are so
many men in the four colleges who
are about of an equal calibre. The
Colby team is weak in that practi-
cally all of the barriers are first
year men who have had little exper-
fence in t e game. Payne, Laughton,
Loveley and Warren are the only
veterans that Coach Mike Ryan has
to build up a complete team and a
greater part of this fall Brudno, a
first year man has been beating
Warren to the line quite frequently.
Brudno did not show up very well IN
the dual meet last week and Warren
came in several places ahead of the
freshman.
Laughton pulled a surprise when
lie placed fifth and beat out two
rivals on the home stretch. He has
been grinding steadily for three
years at the game and Saturday was
the first time that he has shown up
at all. Loveley also showed up well
but is considered slower than
Laughton in the game.
The four colleges of the state will
meet in Waterville Friday afternoon
at 8 o'clock. Each college will be rep
resented by seven men and the low
est aggregate score of the first five
men Of each team to place will count
for the championship. The Watervli!e
course is hard one with some dit
ficult running to be done. Payne
made the run over he course in 81
minutes fiat but did not force HIM
self at any time during the entire
race. The Colby leader is expected
to place this fall among the first
three men in.

Chicago, oct. ~.
Although wheat averaged little
lower in price today, eastern buying
brought about rallies. Imports or ca
madam wheat had some bearish influ-
ence, but sellers were cautious on ac-
count of possibility of government &C
to bulls The CLOSE was unsettled at
with December 1.o5g@1.o6 and May

lower, oats to s9sc of; and provi-
sions unchanged to zoe higher.
Reports were current that fully, 500
bushels of Canadian wheat had been
brought into Duluth during. the last
week. presumably for Minneapolis
mills, and that, additional imports
crease of country selling in the north
west tended also to ease the market
here. Selling in Chicago, however,
lacked volume and it gradually be-
east was supporting values whenever
setbacks in price seemed likely to be-
come important. Some of the current
buying was said to be based on an

famine the United States would pur-
chase carGocs of wheat and flour and
| would give aid similar to that afforded
Russia after the war.
Official announcement that 19, 600, 900
bushels of United States wheat and
| flour had been exported during the
| four weeks ending October 81 attracted
considerable notice. According to a
| leading authority this total is COM
pletely at variance with widespread
belief that at present the United
States is out of the export business
/ in wheat.
| Seasona BILE readjustment Of corn
prices from an old crop to new cror,
basis led to drop of as much as ten
cents bushel in the value of old
| corn. New crop deliveries held steady
| owing to unfavorable weather. Oats
sagged little with corn. Upturns in
the price o. hogs gave strength to
