6inaI Squirt Fails to Recover
Wheat Loss,

By United Press
CHICAGO, oct. 11.-Grain futures
were weak TO lower on the Board OF
Trade close Saturday. Corn dis
played irregularity.
Wheat was sharply lower although
a final squirt Of short covering
rallied values from the extreme dip.
Frost in the Argentine was among
the attributes for some of the late
short covering.
Corn was cratic. a statement by
James \. Patten, leading corn
trader, that he was still bullish on
December corn gave that option d
firm unchanged finish. December
was advanced on cash buying while
July sagged sharply on a decrease
in feeder demand
Shorts rallied oats slightly from
the low point. but weakness in
wheat depressed sentiment.
Provisions We're higher.
