Checked by Heavy Selling
Of Railroad Shares

rally in stock prices was checked
today by the heavy selling Of the
railroad shares. following the adj
verse decision against the st. Louis
and O'Fallon railroad in proceedings
under the "recapturc clause" Of the
transportation act. Early gains of
one to five points in wide variety
of stocks were substantially ! cut
down or converted into losses by the
late liquidating movement, some Of
the rails sinking one to three points
below yesterdays final quotations.
Operations for the advance had
lifted more than a score issues to
new peak prices for the year, or
longer, in the early trading. The
list included United States Indus
trial Alcohol, Reynolds Spring,
Electric Auto Lite. Liquid Car
bonic, Freeport, Texas and Congol-
cum.
Southern Pacific crossed 1876 to
the highest prices in Is years but
quickly sold off more than three
points on the O'Fallon decision.
New York Central and Delaware
and Hudson also sold off more than
two points and a number Of others,
including Erie and Great Northern

Chicago, Dec. 1O.--lP)--Evidencc
IF better foreign demand for
wheat acted as an influence in fav-
or of higher prices today. Europe
was reported as taking Canadian
cheat by way Of the Pacific coast,
and the trading basis at the Atlant
ic was firm, with indications that
liberal export dealings were immin-
cnt. Corn and oats developed indie
pendent strength.
Wheat closed unsettled 3-8 to 5-S
cent net higher; corn at "a to rs

unchanged to Is to IL cents down.
InasmLch as this is the time of
the year when wheat prices on the
Argentine might be expected to re-
fleet pressure Of nearly harvested
wheat an overnight advance Of one
cent bushel today at Bucnos Aires
attracted immediate notice among
wht 1T traders here. Announcement
from WinnipeG that no more gram
boats would leave Canadian lake
ports this season was also taken in
some quarters as bullish factor,
the expected result being to center
European demand more on United
States wheat and supplies from Ar
gentina.
Reports today Of good demand for
corn throughout Europe helped
somewhat to give strength to corn
prices. In this connection, Euro
pean advice this morning contained
mention of corn clearanccs made

Frost Victims Are
Getting Along Nicely

James Dcver of Garrison and
August Pfahl Of Ventura, who had
their feet badly frozen Wednesday
night when they walked four miles
into Bismarck in the bitter cold
after their automobile had become
stalled ir a snow drift, on state
highway 6, are getting along nicely
today, according to the attending
physician.
While it will be necessary for the
men to remain in the hospital for
at least two weeks, it is not now be-
lievcd likely that amputation will
be necessary, although it was at
first feared that the men might lose
their feet.
S. F. Deragisch Of Fargo, who
also walked into Bismarck after his
automobile was stalled Wednesday
night, and had his ears severely
frozen, is getting along nicely al
though it will be necessary to keen
his head in bandages for some time.

Davis Replacr a. Coach

Davis Replace q. Coach
"aAs I ras president O the Uni
versity Alumni association, l9ZU-
1924, and residing at Grand Forks
during that time, ! came into more
or less intimate contact with uni
versity athletics. Naturally, mere
were several things that did not par
ticularly appeal. There were some
Of US who felt, for example, that
someone she, lid BE- selected t. coach
the football team place Of Paul
Davis. The feeling continued and
finally Mr.. Rockwell was selected.
MAY / say frar.kly that many. OF
US believed this would adjust what
we believed needed adjusting.
"As / recall it, the authorities at
that time belle yeL that there was a
place for Mr.. Davis, however, the
growth Of the institution demanding
an athletic director. He remained,
1T any rate. If his qualifications
were recognized as sufficient at that
time, /, for one, am intereste! in dis
covering what now disqualifies HIM.
"Th~re is some intimation, m
printed reports, that Paul DAVIS
slapped Paul Samuelson. If that is
the only charge against him may. !
make o bold as to suggest that he
should receive q bonus rather than
a reprimand? Mr.. Samuelson im-
pressed me ve- strongly as having
few Interests in the university be-
ycnd the figures .On his salary and
expense checks. He certainly did
not originate the stadium idea, be-
cause Paul j. Davis mentioned that
as early as 1920.
Alumni "Want to Know"
However, the point am making
is this: cha the alumni of the uni
versity would like to know, md be-
lieve the. are entitled to know, just
what the charges against Davis are.
II th-v are sub as to justify dis
charge, If proven, all well and good,
but if they are merely such trivial
matters as Shaping S 'elson's
face, I, f. Ole, do not Sc. the need
for q lot of 'hullabaloo.'
1--WE trust to your fair-mindedness
and good judgment in giving the
alumni short statement !! will
clarity matters q. an early date"
Samuelson, to whom Wenzel re-
ferred, managed the campaign for
an athletic stadium at the Univers-
ity. In q staten 1t to the board Of
administration Wednesday, State
Senator Walter Schlosser, Grand
Forks, charged that Davis action in
shaping Samue lson's face ..as' led to
the attempt to Dust Davis as ath-
letic director.
Hearing in the case has been set
for Monday at Grand Forks.
