SCHOLARSHIPS DEVOTE ATTENTION TO COMING I
GRID SEASON
OVER SAVE
2GAMES
BY GARRETT WATERS

BY GARRETT WATERS
They've waited a long time for
Il, but they will be able to turn
to it in full force this week, now
that the football season, with the
exception of two more games, is
an item for the records.
Yep, we mean nothing else but
basketball, me lads, basketball
which will take up the time Of
the scholastics from now until
early in March.
A Long Season
It's a long season, to be sure.
but a season promising plenty Of
activity. OF course, the annual
inter-high school series is the
feature, but coupled with this
event are the usual schedules Of
outside games that are sure to
offer interesting moments.
For the past three weeks, every
high school coach in the city has
been sending certain collection
Of floor performers through their
PAGES in between the daily prac-
tice sessions of their brother foot
ball teams.
Eastern probably has led the
pack in this, as the Lincoln
Parkers began drills late in Octo-
Der. Tech probably has been a
close second, as Coach Artie
Boyd, despite the fact his lone
regular letterman, Reds" DAILY,
was missing because Of football,
has directed a small army Of
basketeers in practice for almost
Q month.
Joined the PacA:
Roosevelt High recently joined
the pack when Coach Lynn Wood
worth put forth his first call for
practice, while Central and West
ern will be in full swing this week
if they already have not engaged
in few impromptu sessions dur
ing the past 10 days.
The first games of the season
will come very soon now. In fact,
Roosevelt plays Emerson Friday.
The other teams will follow with
contests the next week, and from
that time on the season will be in
its fullest swing.
But, getting away from basket
ball for a moment, those final two
football games will send the Cen
trail and Georgetown Prep elevens
into actiol- on Thursday.
Central Travels
The Mount Pleasanters go to
White Plains, N. Y, to engage the
White Plains High School eleven,
while Georgetown Prep will visit
New Rochelle, N. Y, to play its
annual contest with Iona Prep.
Last year the Garrett Parkers
lost to this team by a 14-to-13
score, and it marked the only de-
feat for the Gardner-coached
eleven for the campaign. The
Garrett Parkers will naturally go
to New Rochelle Thursday this
year to gain revenge if such is
humanity possible.
And it might be said they hold
excellent chances of winning, as
the team is stronger and better
balanced this season than it ever
has been in the last four or five
seasons,

BONDS SELL OFF
UNDER PRESSURE
Obligations of Utility Holding
Companies Suffer Most
in Decline.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, September 16.-1n an
alyzing the bond market for the kind OF
public utility issue that would be SOON
est and most seriously damaged by set
ting up Muscle Shoals power rates as
standard of service value, traders
readily singled out the obligations OF
large holding companies. This type OF
security was weak yesterday and was
under pressure again today, especially
those traded in on the Curb Exchange.
The bonds of companies serving COM
munities in the Tennessee Valley have
naturally been affected more seriously
than any others, for to these COM
panies the menace is most direct. They
will be expected, when power is made
available, to take it from the Shoals
development at mills per kilowatt
hour, and one authority on production
ard distribution costs has already ven-
tured the opinion that it will be I'M
possible to distribute current at profit
if the retail schedule announced yes
terday is enforced.
The Tennessee Valley Authority has
not said SO in so many words, but
every one in the public utility field
understands that the only alternative
to acceptance of the Governments
schedule will be the setting up of Fed
eral competition.

OYSTER SHIPMENTS
TO CAPITAL SMALL
Dealer, After Survey Trip, Pre-
diets Heavy Receipts Will Not
Begin Until October l.

CAPITAL dealers in marine products
are receiving small quantities of oysters
in the shell from nearby Chesapeake
Bay and Potomac River tongers. Not
until much cooler weather, however
will the genuine salts begin to arrive
in large quantities.
G. c. Ellis, Washington dealer, re-
turned yesterday from survey trip to
the Chincoteague Island section OF
Virginia, on the Atlantic Coast between
Cape Charles, Va. and Ocean City, Md.
from where many of the best oysters
served in this city are said to come.
Chincoteague and Toms Cove oysters
particularly interested him. He re-
ported finding the oysters in much
finer condition than they usually are
found so early in the season. He fears,
from reports. that they will not be very
plentiful although supplies will be
ample to meet demands most of the
season.
Most of the oysters coming from
Chincoteague Bay and Toms Cove, ac-
cording to him. are from privately
planted beds They get the benefit of
the ocean water, he stated, which gives
them plenty of salt and keeps them
in splendid condition.
It was said by the dealer that oysters
in the lower Potomac and Chesapeake
Bay promise to be of exceptionally fine
quality this season.
Due to the continued warm weather,
the dealer stated, receipts continue
small. He said he thought heavy re-
ceipts would not appear much before

There was considerable buying for

was supplied by hedging and weekend
liquidation and December soon eased
from 9.7l to 9.6l, or about points net
lower. The buying continued, however.
and the market at the end of the first
half hour was to points net higher
on active months, with December selling
at 9.68. Wall Street interests were
credited with buying on the advance
and trading was fairly active during
the early session. Liverpool cables said
light hedge selling had been taken by
trade calling and speculative buying in
that market and that houses with
Liverpool and continental connections
were among the early buyers here.

Of WHEAT 7
IN US. IS DOUBTED
Former Agriculture Official
Declares Surplus Fore
cast Is Myth.
BY JOHN p. BOUGHAN.
Associated Press Market Editor.

CHICAGO, September 16-World-
wide belief that big surplus of wheat
exists in the United States received
violent jolt today.
Authoritative statements from former
Assistant Secretary Of Agriculture Ber-
nard w. Snow, one of the foremost
grain experts in the country. imply
that the supposed surplus is practically
myth. In carefully prepared sum-
mary Of present wheat supplies and
requirements, Snow says:
Il am convinced that without any
export trade this year other than the
suggested shipment of 10000 900 bushels
as relief to the situation on the North
Pacific Coast, our own domestic re-
quirements will SO closely absorb our
new crop and old carryover that the
next carryover, June 80, at the close OF
the season will not be a figure in ex-
cess of what our national food safety
requires
All Higher in Week.
Influenced to a material extent by
aggressive demand from domestic mill
ers. wheat this morning, compared to
week ago, was 434a51s cents a bushel
higher: corn, la1as up; oats. 1AalA
advanced, and provisions showing q
rise Of is to IS cents
Prefacing the Snow statement, it Is
pointed out that the United States
wheat crop this year is now recognized
as smaller than wheat disappearance
In a normal year-in other words, that
the 1888 domestic production is less
than a reasonable expectation of do
mestlc requirements. This brings the
question Of carryover stocks of old
wheat into first importance as a factor
in wheat supplies and probable wheat
prices during the current crop year.
Snow asserts that recent estimate by
the Bureau of Agricultural Economics
OF the United States Department of
Agriculture as to the next carryover
is excessive, and that it is not true the
country has an available export surplus
of 161 900 900 bushels.
Official figures on domestic farm
stocks OF wheat and on country mills
and elevator stocks are asserted by
Snow to be 100000 bushels over
stated. On the other hand, his forecast
OF probable domestic distribution is
100000 bushels greater than the
official forecast.
General Clearing UH.
The net balance left for export and
carryover at the end of the crop year.
Snow finds, is 150,000,000 bushels less
than the official suggestion, and would
leave the carryover on July next only
1875 100000 bushels without exporting a
bushel of wheat in the preceding II
months. He adds: Disposition of the
relatively small surplus in Oregon and
Washington might properly be Iikened
to removal of the key log in a lumber
Jam, and result in a general clearing
up OF our wheat situation"
Germ and oats prices have borrowed
strength from wheat and from indica-
uons that much light weight and chaffy
corn is regarded as a certainty this
season
Provisions show the effect Of reports
that the United States Government will
purchase an additional 100000 Of
