Win in Overtime

So intense was the battle between the Crescents and the Meteors that the two teams were deadlocked at the end of the regulation playing time and they had to so into an overtime session before a decision could be reached. The Cresconts came through with a one-point vic being 26 to 25.
 Pinkerton's field goal put the Crescents in the lead early in the contest. kaminski tied it up and the lead changed hands several times during the quarter. However, the Meteors edged to the front and led at the end of the session to 1. The Crescents spurted and led at half time to 5.
 In the third frame, the game slowed down considerably. Long passes were resorted to and each quintet was on the defensive. Lien- hard and Matulis made several con- tributions to the scoring column in in the lead 1o to z. Both teams scored in the last quarter but the final whistle found hem tied at Hall.
 Tn the overtime. the points came thick and fast but Lienhard. with two baskets. and Balcunis. with one, settled the issue. The score:

Luke, true 10 his old form, scored five baskets and two foul shots during the game. At the end Of the first quarter the score stood 72 in favor of the Planets.
 Lyons of the Comets started the second quarter by getting a basket for his team and Luke following suit.

 There has been considerable con- ment and criticism among the peo- pie who attend the Industrial Bas- ketball league games at the Tabs hall each Tuesday and Friday eve ming over the fact that alm every night. contrary to the expressed statement of the officials, the games are started late.
 Actual check on the appearance Of the teams on the floor for the last two nights of play shows that the first players to appear have been coming on the court at 7:40 o'clock and later
 Bryce Long, secretary of the in dustrial athletic council, has taken notice of the criticism and he has started things in motion towards getting the games going on time.
 The real reason for the slow starts has been the fact that the players on the various teams have been ar irving at the hall late. The first game is scheduled to start promptly at 7:30 o'clock and when the play CTS who are scheduled to take part in the first contest of the night, fail to get to the hall until 7:30 o'clock, it is impossible to get the games started.
 A little more effort on the part of the fellows who consistently violate this rule, would be a great courtesy to the fans who come to the hall to acc the teams play.
 New York sport writers appear to hc unable to reverse themselves once they have declared their opinion on various matters interesting to the public. Take for instance the result Of the Battalino-C Chocolate bout. Only a scattered few Of them are givng BattaIino any credit at all.
 Spectators at the fight all state unanimously that Battalino beat Chocolate without q question last Friday night. They all say that the Cuban negro appeared to be in eX- ccllent form and was as clever as everyone has said he was. But, he couldn't stop the fighting style of the featherWeight champion. His boxing couldn't offset the dogged offensive thrown against him by Battallno.
 The old situation-New York fighters are the best and all of the things that go along with that claim --seens to be still in existence in New York but nowhere else. These writers have banned Battalino for so long that they are now unable to gracefully admit they were wrong. However, they were wrong, Bat talino showed that to them last Fri day

WEST IS PLACING
HOPE IN HARVEST
Gathering of Wheat Crop Is
Expected to Give Impetus
to Trade.
special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
KANSAS CITY, Mo, May 31-Ready
% start on Summer, the interior looks
back to five months of subnormal
business conditions both as regards the
movement of commodities and in agri-
cultural activities. The hope of the
year lies in the next go days and the
harvest that is near.
Unquesttonably the strain has told on
retail business, and failures here and
there, often of old established firms,
indicate the struggle continued through
the past few years. The slowing up of
trade since last Autumn came when
there was belief in eventual resump-
ton of normal activity, and it proved
too much for business concerns that
were not well fortified, and has made
further inroadS on the banks. How
ever, 1t may be said that only the
weaker firms and institutions have been
affected-the great mass of retailers are
carrying on.
What is hoped from the approaching
wheat harvest is an impetus to trade.
The crop of the Southwest continues to-
ward maturity with the prospect little
changed for the past month. Oklahoma
and the Texas Panhandle, which will
be first to ship may give 100000
bushels, that being the railroads eSti-
mate. This, however, is only 10 to IL
bushels an acre, not enough to make
producers margin of profit. Kansas
will do better, but it has so much
spotted" area that estimates run be-
Nw last year.
The influx Of new money will have its
effect psychologically as well as in
actual funds and give aid to Summer
trade and at the same time lift the
bank deposits, which normally reach
their peak in September. Easier money
will be effective in encouraging bust
ness, and the producer ought to get his
current obligations materially reduced
Altogether the coming three months
have large potentiality for betterment,
provided there is such general improve
u1ent in the industrial sections as will
furnish a stronger market for food
Stuffs.

Wheat Prices Average Higher De-
spite Selling of May Delivery.

CHICAGO, May 81 P-Despite
month-end selling of May wheat and
lack of buying support for that month
except from farm board allies, wheat
values today averaged higher. Ter
rife dust storms that were said to have
swept across parts of the Canadian
prairie provinces had considerable in
1duence toward lifting wheat prices at
times. In some cases 80 to so per
cent loss to Canadian wheat was re-
ported to have been caused by the dust
billiards.
Wheat closed irregular, ranging from

closed at a shade to u cent gain, oats
varying from "A cents off to 1s cent
