GRAIN SHIPMENTS
DROP WITH PRICES
Market Believed to Be in
Better Position After Re-
cent Decline.

BY the Associated Press.
Unless European buying has spent
itself for the time being, wheat and
corn values are expected to reflect the
drastic housekeeping of the last week
which knocked 2 to cents of the
bread grain and on one session had
corn the lowest In nearly IS years.
1t is becoming familiar to hear OF
cargoes of wheat beirg chartered to va
rious parts of the world. Importing
countries seem to have been impressed
by the low level of prices, but United
States quotations still are unpopular
and Canada practically monopolizes
world demand.
Some estimate the export business in
North American wheat as high as 15,-
900 900 bushels during the last week
and look for a natural pause.
Domestic Marketing.
In the meantime, domestic marketing
is beginning to slacken because OF lower
prices, the smaller Winter wheat crop
and increased Fall farm work. Receipts
at the principal Central and South
western markets totaled only 2,10O cars,
compared with 1900 cars for the cor.
responding week last year. Local mill
demand was fairly active and a gooo
domestic -four business was reported.
The Department of Agriculture estl-
mates domestic consumption OF Wneat
during the 1928 crop year Will pe
$50 600 900 bushels. If SO, 1t Is prlvateiy
suggested, it will be necessary 1or tnlS

els to prevent the carry over from =.

in the last 20 years was ll2,oOo,ooo' III
the 1930-31 season. a.. 49,.
Il was said In the trade that the
market had discounted the increase IN
the Canadian crop and was now LOOKING
to crop news in the Southern Hen1s,
phere for incentive. Dry weather ana
locust scares were anticipated from
nrgn'ia menta totaled o only ss4. 900 bushels for
the week, and while Russia sent out
more than 100000 bushels to bring
the seasons total to 100000, it was re-
called that by this time last year sne
had shipped $500, 900 bushels.
The situation in corn was said 10 De
developing new angles, with preValnng
low prices encouraging an export traoe
which could send values to higher
levels. Inquiries for small quantities
were reported from the United KING
dom and Rotterdam.
Increase Predicted.
A13 per cent increase over last year
has been predicted in feed grains py
the Department of Agriculture, and the
new corn crop continues to mature
rapidly, with the bulk reported safe from
frost over most of the belt. About 6o
per cent of the crop was said to be safe
from frost in Iowa by the end OF last
week.
Little attention was believed to have
been given the liberal movement and
limited shipper demand during the week
after values had declined to the lowest
point in several years. The yellow
cereal was showing strength IN sym.
pathy with a better feeling in wheat
and indications that export outlet had
been heavier than generally surmised-

Trip to Washington

Normally sponsoring clean
sport and clean living and think
ing and outdoor recreation for
the youths of the land, the Le-
Rion tournaments this year in
the various departments, were
the finals held here, would also
hold out the hope of a trip to
the Bicentennial observation IN
Washington for every boy who
participated.
Certainly the spirit of George
Washington with which the Bi-
centennial is inspiring the land
this year couldn't be propagated
in more fertile hearts and
minds than in those of youths
up to 16 years of age whom
the Legion invites to play ball
under its banner.
The dual opportunity Of be-
coming boy champions as well
as winning that high honor in
and visiting the city named for
and founded by George Wash
ington ought to bring out the
very best in the 10000 lads the
country over who are annually
a part of the Legion competi-
ton.
With it's opportunity to i'm
bue the ideals of George Wash
ington in the boys of America,
the marvel is that the invita-
ton to bring their baseball
finals to Washington hasn't
long ago been extended the
Legion.

S0X HOLD HOPES.
FOR CAMPBELL

Attention is called to the case Of
Bruce Campbell, of the White SoX
Campbell is q Chicago boy by
birth and his entry into the big
leagues is along lines similar to
that of AL Simmons, who led three
leagues at bat in one season to
develop in one year into one of
the outstanding ballplayers Of the
American League.
Campbell has been in pro base,
ball since 1880. He dropped around
to the SoX park in June of that
year. DOME Bush looked him over
carefully and noted that he had
pair of broad shoulders, with
powerful hands end arms.
Strong at Bat
Campbell chased flies for two
days and then was invited to take
a cut at the ball. His first two
drive went out of the park. Bush
shipped him to a minor league for
development.
Last season he topped the bat
tiers of the Texas League while he
was in Little Rock, where he hung
up mark of .381 for the top fig
ure. and when he wound up his
season with the White Sox he
flashed mark Of .412.

Levinsky and Baer put on a
good show, however. They gave
the crowd five rounds of thrills
and five reels of. comedy-JuSV
like a movie program.
Left hands we're as scarce as
pickpockets in Glasgow. LeVlnSky
threw wild rights at Baer'S jaw
all evening, while Max drove
about $50 rights to the heart and
kidneys. After three rounds the
Kings left side looked like a
slab of raw beefsteak.
Those rights in the clincheSs
won the fight for Baer. Against
them, Levinsky had no more de-
fense than a Seabury witness.
The boys we're about Fen at
the end of the fifth round. The
Kingfish talked a great fight
thereafter, but neglected to say II
with leather.
Won Handily
Max got into the spirit Of the
thing and laughed and clowned
his way to the finish, winning. by
a comfortable margin. There
were no knockdowns.
Baer was an 11-to-10 favorlte
He weighed 202 pounds to 1882
for Levinsky.
In the semifinal, Charley Retz
laff, Duluth slugger, got off the
floor to register technical kaye
over Joe Woods, Los Angeles
heavyweight, in the seventh
round. Rain held the attendance
down to 1000. The net receipts
were $4,000.

PIN MARATHON
On TODAY

Can girls roll Is consecutive
games in three hours?
This question will be answered
this afternoon, when a dozen
girls take the drives for the John
Blick's 25-game marathon at Con-
vention Hall at 2::30 p. m.
Experts figure that the girls
will consume five minutes on
each of the first five games, six
each for the next five, seven for
the third five and eight on each
of the final ten games. This
would permit the contestants to
finish within ten minutes of the
time allotted them, three hours.
Those who do not finish their
string of Is games within the
time limit still have a chance for
a prize providing their total pins
exceeds that of those who have
finished their Is games.
Washington entries are Doris
Goodall. Evelyn Ream, Evelyn
Ellis and Edna Johnson. Those
from Baltimore are Sue Miller,
Olive Ford and Alice Lucas.
Mary Stapleton, Norfolk lass, is
also entered.

That is how the suburbaniteS

Brooklyn's famed O'Doul, Wilson

The only doubtful man of the
local trio in the minds of many
is Manush. because of Heine's
complete flop as a hitter of parts

To relieve the minds Of those
who might be interested, or who

Manush should be right up there

TECH-EASTERN
SCORE SERIES
TR|UMPHS

Almost, but not quite, might
tell little story of yesterdays
interhigh school games at the
Tech gymnasium. For in each
encounter the teams that ulti-
mately lost fell by the wayside
only after the most gruelling of
fights.
In the opening contest for the
day, Central lost to Tech, 80 to
81. Business dropped a 33-to-29
decision to Eastern in the night
cap. Both games found the los
ing teams playing their opponents
to proverbial standstill, failing
only because earlier leads or last,
minute rushes proved too much
of a handicap to overcome-So
precious was the time.
Central in Rally
In the Tech-Central game, the
former was able to hold the ad'
vantage as far as a substantial
lead was concerned, until the
final quarter. Here, with Everett
Russell and Knocky Thomas out
of the picture because of fouls,
Central made one Of the most
courageous fights to snatch a
game out of the fire, seen on
local courts in collection OF
moons.
The Mt. Pleasanters' rally fell
| short by three points as Time
keeper Walter Haight'S gun
brought a sudden ending to
things. But, while it lasted, the
rally had every person in the
thrill-packed gymnasium on their
toes and wondering about the
final outcome. Bill Burke, play
ing his last game for his team,
was the star for Central, while
Everett Russell and Knocky
Thomas were best for Tech-tak,
ing, of course, their play before
being forced out of the picture
because of the mentioned fouls,
The EaStern-BusinesS game was
just as trying on the spectator
as the contest which preceded it.

taking because of the closeness
of the score from the beginning
up to a few moments before the
end.
Close Throughout
The two teams matched point
for point until the final quarter
It was here Eastern finally took
things to heart, and collected the
points which spelled it's margin
of victory. But it was not until
this point of the game.
Kane and Bayliss were the
Lincoln Parkers' stars, while Sis
Essenstad, playing his last game
because of graduation, and Carol
Shore were Business satellites.
AS a matter of record, Techs
figures read five wins in six
games in the standings. Eastern,
still in second place, has four
wins against one loss for its rec
ord. Central, Business and West
ern follow in that order.

Three Open Dates

Incidentally the first three
days of September are open
dates at Griffith Stadium and
no doubt would be available
for the play-off. About four
years ago Mr.. Griffith donated
the park for the legion re-
