CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-(R-Grain
traders who had modest profits as
result of a Accent wheat price
advance since the 1910 lows were
established week ago took ad-
vantage of the opportunity today
and their selling, plus some liquid
alton of September contracts
caused prices to fall more than a
cent.
Weakness of securities and an
upward revision of a private Cana
dian wheat crop estimate encour-
aged profit takers. Some hedging
also was in evidence but this was
on a small scale inasmuch as trade
reports indicated large quantities
Of the new crop are being held off
the market temporarily due in part
to the government loan program.
Minneapolis reports were that out

College Nine Loses
In Extra Innings

Defeat continued to dog the Bluff
ton college nine last Wednesday, as
the team lost its fourth straight
start when Ohio Northern broke
thru to victory in an extra-inning
contest on the Bluffton diamond. q
Going into the tenth, the count
was knotted at six-all, but the Bears
cut loose with fve-run splurge to
capture an II to victory.
Despite the setback, the Beavers
played nice brand of ball, and
showed their gameness when they
tailed three sruns in the eighth, tc
come from behind and tie the score
In the eighth inning uprising,
Pitcher Deddy, of Northern, forced 2
run across the plate when, he
walked a batter with bases loaded,
and Backensto and Ramseyer scored
on hits. H
Lyle Grow, freshman hurler from
Mt. Cory, made his first start of the
year for the Beavers, and went the
entire distance. He gave up only
nine hits. Three pitchers worked
for Northern, allowing eight safeties
between them. Bluffton's eight mis-
plays were costly.
