That blow knocked Hanson alIt
the way out OF Wall Street or Wall
Street completely out of Hanson or
both, thus leaving mankind slightly
less desolated. / just know that
mankind also will rally gamely from
the shock IL he repeats against
Sharkey tonight. One can be very
brave in the face of misfortune,
provided 1t is somebody else's.
As . matter Of fact, it would
be several people Demp-
sey's, the Madison Square Gar
den Corporations and, to be
sure, Jack Sharkey's. For if
Sharkey blows this one, there
win be no $1OO,OOO for him at
Miami Beach next month be-
cause there win be no fight for
HIM there or elsewhere. He
never would be able to live the
thing down.
As for Dempsey and the Garden,
they are very heavily obligated for
q fight they wouldn't be able to
promote. Figuring himself as a win
ner, Christner already has declared
party. He doesn't seem to care
levotedlyS about playmating with
Willie Stribfing at this time.
Stribling himself Is going for an
airing within the same ~ hours with
Ralph Smith as his companion. This
means that William Is in very grave
danger. He might be kicked right
In the face while Ralph is taking off
frem the springboard.
Christner, on the contrary, has the
genuine chance that goes with any
hitter. Nobody expects him to score
another birdie. but everybody knows
that he might. and that is the rea-
son the Garden is sold solid to $751;
600 house for a match between a 81
" r-old tyro, who was in the vul-
canizing pits at Akron two years
ago, and q man who hasn't made a
good fight since Dempsey renovated
him In 1926.
/ However, Sharlxey still Is front
rank fighter. and Christner quite APP
parently isn't. He is crude, un-
schOoled and awkward; he hits often
and hard, but doesn't hit according
the accepted manner, and, of
SAASNt AS Ac&@FAG 4SApSEtCAt|Ss
SO did FirpO, for that matter.
He lacked almost everything.
But = lot Of his opponents
I lacked consciousness after the
second punch landed. l don't
think there Is any particular
sense in expecting Christner TO
be another FirpO.
He II just rough, tough man
Who should make matters very in
teresting for Sharxey for a few
rounds at least. The fight is
scheduled for ten rounds, and for
six of these Christner may be in
the money. After that, he probably
win tire under the left-handing he
figures to get. allowing the better
man TO go on and win. Unless he
ls clipped by wild punch, Sharkey
indubitably win be the better man.
He has too many guns, too much
speed and class for the Christners
Of this life. There is one thing,
however, about the Christners: they
are reconciled to the bumps and
ruts Of the road; they expect to
take the rap from fate and take it
philosophically in exchange for the
odd chance that a break will come
to them. Christner at least has
that chance tonight, Unless his
chin Is not what 1t migh& be. he
will always have that CD nee.

Supplies Of Grain on Ocean Pas
sage Decrease, With Fa-
vorabIe Effect

Chicago, July 22.-R-Hurricane
buying of wheat today ran wheat
prices up s cents a bushel above Sat-
urday's closing figures. Sizzling tenn
peratures and rain-less skies causing
worse and worse crop damage north
west were reported, and despite huge
profit taking sales, the market went
skyward especially In the late deal
ings. Word Of big purchases Of North
American wheat for shipment to
Europe tended likewise to hoist values,
and there were authoritative esti-
mates of as low as 2l0, 900 bushels
of wheat this year In the Canadian
prairie provinces, far less than half
of last years production.

In a fresh outburst of speculative
buying, wheat values here jumped al
most S cents a bushel during the first
part of today's trading. The extreme
point of this advance carried the
market up to within &c of Sl.50 a
bushel, December delivery. but then
the volume of offerings broadened
out, and a quick setback Of nearly 2
cents ensued, with many subsequent
sharp changes. General rusl1es to
buy which were witnessed at times
received much of their impetus from
the advances in the Liverpool market,
whereas declines there had been ex-
pected. Persistent lack Of adequate
moisture in drought regions north
west and q notable falling of IN
wheat supplies afloat for Europe. both
as compared with a week and q year
ago. were contributing factors.
Much OF the wheat selling that de-
yelopcd OH price advances came from
the southwest, and represented pre-
sumably an increase Of hedging pres

newly harvested grain. Receipts Of
wheat at Kansas City and other lead
