By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

ny WALL = NEE Oh hN n Il OAS
NEW YORK, July IS 1.N.SD q.
The 2-cent break in wheat and
the 81 a bale drop in cotton was
too big a load for the market
to bear, yesterday. even with the
shot in arm it got through the
rapid absorption OF $4,000, 600
worth of Consolidated Gas and
Brooklyn Union Gas bonds.
The decline in cotton does not
speak we'll Of Federal Reserve
Chairman Meyers advice that
the staple was buy.
Long Seige for Stocks
With the two leading commodi-
ties turning down as sharply as
they did yesterday, the stock
market has a long row to hoe.
The wheat market presents the
big if at the present time. One
thing that overhangs the grain
trade is the Federal Farm Board.
With the board having COM
mitted itself for about 35,OOO,OOO
bushels of September and De
cember wheat, it means that just
so much more wheat will event
ually come out for the trade to
absorb.
The wheat market usually has
a change in trend at the end Of
July when operations of traders
in the wheat pit are divorced
partially from the stock market.
Likely to Go Lower
While the wheat market, with
sentiment as bearish as it is,
could easily work down to
possibly the Ascent level or even
the Accent level. it would make
for a good base for a sharp
technical upturn.
Such an upswing could easily
have a beneficial effect on the
stock market.

JOYS, SORROWS
FOR OLYMPIC
CANDIDATES
By HARRY COSTELLO

Today and tomorrow are days
of triumph and tragedy for Amer
lean athletes contending for po-
sitions on Americas 1882 Olympic
field and track teams.
For those who win places on
the team which will carry Amer
ica's colors in the tenth Olynpiad
these two days will be days of
triumph.
For those athletes who fail to
perform their best and thus miss
places on the team, these two
days will be days of tragedy.
Some Too Serious
1t takes such a test as the
final tryouts for the Olympic
team to prove the cruelty of ath-
letics. Many a heart will be
broken, temporarily at least, be-
cause of the Palo Alto tryouts.
In years to come. some of those
who encounter tragedy today and
tomorrow will laugh about it all.
Others, however, will always carry
heavy hearts. Many American
athletes, for some reason or other,
are too serious about their ath-
leticS. Many oldtime athletes,
also for some unexplained reason,
live in the past, and never forget
athletic tragedies such as are sure
to result from the Palo Alto trials
AS usual. Americas Olympic
team of 1882, regardless of its
makeup, will be strong. In the
distance events alone will wearers
of the red. white and blue shield
be outclaSSed.
Americas hurdlers are stand
outs. Today and tomorrow should
witness some mighty perform
anceS by such stars as Beard,
Sailing, Keller. Black. Sentman,
Beatty, Record and Reidell.
SprinterS Look Best
Americas sprinters also stack
up as the real Mccoy. With the
big Ralph Metcalfe reinforced by
such stars as Wykoff, Dyer,
Keisel, Tolan. Simpson, Jimmy
Johnson, Emmet TOPPING, Dick
Hardy, and Ralph Montague,
group which on paper seems un'
beatable is completed.
One hears little of the mara
thon race, the outstanding fea'
ture of Olympiads. Therefore
word from our old friend Jake
Weber. one of the pillars OF Ford
ham University, is of interest.
Jake, Major Frank Cavanaughs S
right Lower at the Bronx Unlver'
sity once trained the great
Paavo Nurmi. Jake says that III
a letter to him Paavo states thai
the Finn will run the marathon
of this years Olympiad, and will
run it about 30 minutes faster
than it has ever been run before
Marathon Tradition
While the immortal Paavo will
undoubtedly be favored to win
the long jaunt, it is well not TO
overlook Olympic marathon TIA
C.tion. Since 1896, when a shep
herd boy. Spriton Loues. OF
Greece, won through 1928, when
Ell Ouafi took honors, marathon
champions generally have been
unknownS.
There is little or no doubt that
the IAN against Nurmi will be
lifted, thus permitting PaaVo to
compete at Los Angeles.

 Captain Russell was appointed to the permanent force on April g., 1919 and named a captain on June l, 1919.

He was company captain and stationed for number of years with Engine Company No when that outfit was quartered on East Main street, opposite Williams street. He resigned from the depart ment to enter the service during the World War and later to accept an- other position. On reconsldcring his plans for the future he returned to the fire department and after serv- ing two months as a private was promoted to captain and assigned to the bureau of auto repairs.
