FIRST BASKETBALL GAMES IN DOUGLAS DRAW GOOD CROWD

With two hard-fought g m e s played at the natatorium last night, High School vs. Foundry and Jen- sens vs. Warmers, the basketball season was ushered in for Douglas by the recently formed local league in it's first doubleheader offering A fair attendance of rooters and fans were present.
 For many of the unbiased spec tators, leaving special interest in particular teams or certain players aside, performance of the hi ig h school boys was the best part of the show, Only their poor aim in con- verting free throws caused their de- feat by 13 to IA points against their heavier and more experienced ad- versaries, the Foundry team of al- umni. Good team work, speed, and better endurance was there, but only three out of eight free losses were converted while the Foundry scored on two out of four chances. D. Wahto with seven was high man for D. H. s. and Guerin with eight was top scorer for the iron moulders.
 One casualty of this game result ed in a fractured collar bone for Glen Kronquist when he collided

 THEATRE ON SUNDAY

Three Blind Mice, the new Daryl F. Zanuck romantic hit from the goth Century-Fox studios, comes to the Coliseum Theatre on Sunday as a distinct innovation in motion picture production.
 While the usual procedure has been to make established stage suc- cesses and bring them out in screen versions, this production reverses the order by giving movie fandom a glittering cinematic form of Stephen Powys' plays-before the scheduled London and Broadway openings.
 Three Blind Mice" also adds a brilliant cast which includes David Niven, Stuart Erwin, Marjorie Weav- CT, Pauline Moore, Binnie Barnes and Jane Darwell.

Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,

NEW YORK. July 10.-While the
stock market exhibited considerable
rallying indifference today, selected
issues managed to tack on modest
advances at one time or another.
The list pointed moderately up
ward at the start, but most buyers
continued to hang back and gains,
running to point or so in the FORE
noon, were shaved down in many
cases before the close.
Deepening commission house
gloom was attributed not so much
to lack of price trend clues as to
the dwindling of volume. Transfers
Tor the five hours of approximately
275,OOO shares were among the
smallest for a full session in the
past II years.
There really was more good news,
marketwise, than bad, but the spec
ulatlve urge was notably unre-
sponsive. The foreign situation
displayed little alteration and the
latest promises of Prime Minister
Chamberlain to defend Poland
against Germany failed to excite
boardrooms.
Steels got nowhere in particular
Notwithstanding a rebound in this
weeks mill operating rate of 11.2
points following the sharp Fourth
of July let-down. United States
Steel also announced shipments of
finished products in June amounted
to 733,433 tons against 723l65 in
May and 478057 in June year ago.
Dampening sentiment to some ex-
tent was the spread Of the General
Motors strike and labor unsettle-
ment elsewhere.
Coppers refused to get far out In
front despite weekend foreign and
domestic sales of the metal were
the heaviest in several years.
Confusing Wall Street thinking
also was another cut in the foreign
silver quotation. London reduced
the bar metal the equivalent of 1.l6
cents an ounce to 1884 cents,
new low since 1881. The Treasury
at Washington followed suit by
dropping its price for foreign silver
l34 cents to IS cents an ounce.
Stocks favored the greater part
of the day included Chrysler, Sears
Roebuck, Douglas Aircraft, Amer
ican Telephone. Allied Chemical and

were General Motors. United States

Truck Crop Reports Vary
AIonq Eastern Shore
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Varying reports of success of
truck crops came from Eastern
Shore points today as canneries
speeded up summer operations.
In Crisfield tomato prices dropped
to as little as 80 cents a basket,
although growers expected a better
grade would come to market this
week and raise the prices Farmers
in this section reported a boring
worm had reduced the value of the
crop by causing tomatoes to rot.
The fredericksburg area was pro-
viding the first of its tomatoes,
grown for the first time on a large
scale from seedlings imported from
the South. The Southern plants
were providing tomatoes several
weeks before the home grown seed
lings begin to bear. Growers re-
ported tomato crop prospects were
good, although the strawberries and
peas were failure. The cucumber
harvest has begun and at least one
plant has begun to ship them.
Ridgely growers reported the first
planting of string beans was almost
failure, but that the second crop
looked promising Drought ruined
the first planting Heavy Japanese
beetle damage was reported from
the Princess Anne area.

NEW YORK, July lO.-Movements
of various classes of freight car

While too much significance
