GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, June 20 P.-Reports
that rains had improved the outlook
for Kansas wheat did much to make
the wheat market react at the last

down: oats at a shade to. 3s cents
decline and provisions showing 7@lO
cents to 25 cents drop.
At first the wheat market scored a
sharp upturn, chiefly in response to
word of heavy rainfalls over the har-
vest region southwest. AS the day wore
on, though, attention veered to the fact
that fair weather was predicted Tor

Both in wheat and corn much late
selling also was ascribed to gossip that
the Kessinger bill in the Illinois state
legislature might receive favorable con-
sideration. The main bearish factor as
to corn, however, was higher tenn

a prospect of general sunshine. Besides

NEW YORK, June 20 (E1.-The stock
market displayed an almost complete
reversal of form today, selling off
sharply at the close after an earlier
period of strength during which more
than a, score issues were elevated to
new high levels. The late reaction was
inspired by rumors of another sharp
increase in brokers loans, which proved
to be true, the figures which were
announced after the close showing a
total of SO, ,159 ,876 900, an increase of
$41, ,449, 900 and new high record for
all time. The previous record of $3.141,-
10000 was established January 6, 1926.
Some selling came into the market
at the opening as result of the third
successive deficit in reserve in the
weekly clearing house statement, but
uneasineSs over the credit situation was
allayed somewhat when the renewal
rate on call money was fixed at per
cent.
Operators in such stocks as General
Motors, U. S. Steel common and HouS-
ton Oil apparently had an inkling of
what was coming and sold stocks freely
to strengthen their market position by
giving them increased buying power to
take care of such selling as might be
inspired by the loan figures. General
Motors sold down from 2O41a to 200M
and then rebounded to 201A, off Ia
net. U. S. Steel common slipped from
1884 to 1907, closing a point above
that figure for a slight fractional gain.
Houston, after having rallied from 1856
to 164, sold down to 1874, up AS net.
Kansas City Southern preferred, Chi
cago and Alton common and preferred,
st. Paul preferred and the certificates
of 500 common and preferred and
Nickel Plate common also attained new
peak prices. Wabash, New York, On
tario and Western, Western Maryland
and some of the medium and low
priced favorites we're heavy.
Baldwin scared to 228 or within a
fraction of it's record high, and then
eased to 225a4, up SIS net. Renewed
weakness of White Motors, which
touched a new low at 3919 on rumors
questioning safety of the dividend, had
a depressing effect on some of the
other automOtive shares.
Among the many issues which at
tanned new peak prices in the early
trading were Air Reduction, American
Bank Note, American Steel Foundries,
Safety Cable, Sears -Roebuck and
Vivadou, but they failed to maintain
early gains.
Call money appeared to be in plenti-
full supply all day at per cent. Time
money and commercial paper rates
were unchanged, although Slight stiff

McGraw often Trades Stars


Getting back to Eddie Farrell and
his rather unexpected transfer to the
Boston Braves.
With Travis Jackson going good at
short again, McGraw no doubt felt ne
could spare an infielder of Farrells
ability to get pitcher like Larry Ben
ton and catcher like zack Taylor.
While it hardly seems possible that
Farrell will displace Manager Bancroft
at short, for Boston, no doubt spot
for him will be found in the infield.
1t is not the first time that McGraW
has cut loose from a great prospect IN
order to add immediate strength to his
club. He once traded Edd Rouse, later
to take him back as a real star. lie
did the same with Heinie Groh.
In year or two we may again
find Eddie Farrell back with the
Giants. Stranger things have hap
pened in baseball.

Dominick Descola and Tom" Hartnett. who shaped up nicely as a battery in St. Mary's school league. starred on the Delphis and took their place among the prominent combinations in baseball history. Descola was a speedball twirler and had nice curve. When right, he was we'll nigh unhittable, down all opposition on their way 10 and when the Delphis were moving the state junior title, he pitched some mighty fine games.
 Hartnett played nice ball behind the plate and hit hard. He was not fashy. but steady and dependable and knew every move his big part ner would make. When Descola started to blow" no one needed tell Hartnett what was going to happen, and on the other hand when

 Noonan, who was out in profess sional ball for Q few seasons, and is now with Southington, takes his place with the really great catchers in semi-pro circles. Whether or not he outclasses Lynch, Clinton and Wilson will probably never be de- cided to the satisfaction of all who knew the trio in their prime, but no one who has seen the old Pioneer work a pitcher and keep an infield on it's toes through nine or more in- nings of tight baseball can honestly rate him far from the top.
 At about the same time, Abe Wit kin. former Nutmeg football player had charge of the Delphis, a classy organization of juniors who knew their baseball and loved to play.

BA77RE.E.ES FOR
 TH' GAME TODAY
Gty's Records Crowded With Famous Pitchers and CatCherS

In the history of sports in New Britain-this city. by the way. hav- ing enviable standing among New England communities from the view point Of amateur and semi-profes- sional athletic activities-several baseball battery combinations have : been developed. Undoubtedly there will always be disputes over the re- lative abilities of these players. at least as long as New Britain con- tinues to have residents whose memory can transport them back to the times when baseball was the rage. although there were fewer teams and poorer equipment and facilities than there are at the pre- sent. ....
 In the past quarter century some of the notable batteries the game developed in the city were: Riley and Lynch, Coyle and Clinton, Dunn and Lynch, Ahearn and Noo- nan, Descola and Hartnett. Quigley and Wilson. Maher and Ringrose, Walsh and Dunn. Malloy and Nel- ligan. O'Brien and Stewart. Down in Kensington, McCabe and McKeon constituted mbination that be- spoke smooth finessa, and other nearby towns had youngsters teamed Up so niftily that hardly a signal was needed from one 10 the other throughout full game, regardless Of the situations that presented themselves.
 The late Jim Riley pitched for the Y. M. T. A. X B. society team, the Fifth Ward team, champions of the Ward League, and ether clubs, and his catcher, Mickey" Lynch, was rated one of the headiest back stops ever to don the mask and pads in this city. Riley had {. peculiar delivery. and plenty of stuff in addition to being cool ard deliber- ate, seldom betraying . weakness no matter how rough the going might be. Lynch, as a boy, was the catcher on the Spring streets, one Of the leading teams about twenty five years ago when Jim" Dunn pitched, "Juley" Essel played short, Doc" Fay first base, Charley storm, Chicken" Bonenfant Him" Doher- ty and others taking care of the other positions. Throughout the years the Riley-Lynch battery was prominent, many teams i1i and about New Britain wanted the:e services. Lynch has not played baseball for several years. but is q prominent umpire at local games.
 Gus Coyle and Madam" Clin- ton. when they worked for the Smalley Streets and lat,r for the Nutmegs. were well known and. had lots of class. Coyle was christened Thomas, but still is better known by the nickname. He was a speed ball pitcher with plenty of nerve and one Of his favorite tricks was to throw straight balls over the heart of the plate with so much smoke on them that many batters were swinging when the catcher was digging the ball out of his glove.
 Like all othre twirlers, though, Coyle could not throw straight balls forever. and he had a nice curve that helped him greatly. The boys

London. July R-Six dozen newly laid eggs were mixed with the colors Francis Taylor used in his painting East India Docks" now exhibited at the Royal Academy.
 Eggs, Taylor maintains, preserve the colors against the ravages of time. The process, professionally called "egg-tempera," was first used by the early Egyptians. Botti- celli used eggs instead of oil, but the process has not been used for centuries.
 "Egg-tempera" pictures are paint ed on specially prepared wood, and Taylor works on oak. The colors are not mixed in the ordinary way. but at put on the wood separately.

 some baseball observers go a step
 farther and rate him the leading
 pitcher among all who claim this
 city as their birthplace. His bat tery mate was Dave" Dunn, who , makes his home in this city. Much of Walsh's success on the mound
 was due to Dunn's handling of his

 and a quarter balls" Many feats of strength and skill were performed on the diamonds in that field, and numerous stars of later years re- ceived their athletic baptism on the rough, uneven ground that sent balls
 skimming in all directions without
 the least warning.
 Blunt" Mallory and "Bill' Nelli-
 gan, and Jim" O'Brien and Allie" Stewart had their workouts in An drew's lot Sunday after Sunday for a number of years. They formed
 the batteries for the North Streets and the Fremont Streets and various
 other teams in the games that were played morning and afternoon and
 often well into the dusk of early evening. Mallory was one of the first pitchers to wear a baseball cap on Andrews field. Nelligan, who was a roller polo player. invariably wore the green jersey of the Dublins when catching. and that was the nearest approach to uniform

 Several years later. when the pro- gress of the great national game had given the boys better fields on which to play and improved facilities of every nature,' the Pioneers were New Britain's leading representatives on the diamond. Organized among St. Joseph's school boys by Patrick Howley the team attracted large crowds to the Ellis street grounds every Sunday during the summer. Fans went there from all parts of New Britain, and for several sea- sons the players were the idols of the local sport world. In return. they played high grade baseball and were undoubtedly one of the best teams this city has ever had.
