The deputy sheriff wants 10 see the teams play as hard as is possible 10 win tho series and thinks the sot- ting up of q prize such as he has chosen, will be an added incentive 10 each and every individual on the teams.

New Britain herald., 1926-03-18

These two couldn't battle any more fiercely on the lanes than they battle in state league game. Each is an artist at spilling the pins and each would rather beat the other than eat. Teller has been champion Of the state on several occasions and he is bowling great guns at the present time. Anderson Is also just coming into his own and although both arc we'll down in the standing, d perusal of the percentages shows that big margin does not separate has q mark of 300 at the present time and he hopes to make this higher after tonight.

 Who's going 10 win the first game between the National Guards and the American Legion team Saturday night? Answer that one if you can because we can't.

GRAIN MARKET
(By DisDatch A. r. wirs1

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-Sharp breaks in
foreign markets had depressing in
fluence todays in the wheat market
here, reducing the volume if business
and cutting down values as we'll. To-
tai transactions were the smallest
noted of late. Wheat closed heavy
as to % cent net lower, May new
1.75ss to 1.75% and July 1885 to
l.5S% with corn u to l% cents off,
oats M to- 2s' cents down, and provi-
sions varying frdm unchanged figures
to a setback of fifteen cents.
Unexpected weakness of wheat quo-
stations at Liverpool and at Buenos
Aires was coupled with reports of
better weather in Argentina and with
lower exchange rates to that country.
Advices were also at hand that pur-
chasing for English millers was on
only a hand-to-mouth basis and that
some flour mills in Great Britain
We're temporarily closing down. Mean
while, too, export demand for North
American wheat was described as less
than has recently been the case, and
domestic crop conditions were favor
able, especially the fact that new
General seeling which took place
with the outset in the wheat market
here seemed to take all the enthusi-
asm out of the buying side, and left
prices minus apparent power to rally
with any special vigor. AS a result,
fluctuations kept within narrow lirn-
it's during thel asst half of the board
of trade session, the entire range for
that time hardly exceeding a half
cent. Nevertheless, the cash wheat
trading basis. held firm, unchanged
to one cent higher, the latter for red
winter. Export sales of 100000 bush
elssof Canadian wheat were announc-
ed as the ~day came to an end. Ac-
cording to- current gossip, Argentine
shipments We're shortly expected to
increase. N}
Corn and oats were dominated . by
the action of wheat and by lack Of
