CHICAGO, Ill, May 15.-Wheat
prices tumbled about cents a
bushel today after reaching new 12-
month peaks early in the session.
Profit taking caused the reaction
which was regarded largely as tech
nical in view of yesterdays sharp
upswing eliminating a rise of about
10 cents bushel in the past two
weeks.
The market encountered some
support at times in the form of
buying associated with brisk flour
business. Profit taking was encour-
aged by increased sales of wheat at
some terminals, favorable crop re-
ports, and advices pointing out that
Canadian wheat is near an import
basis because of high domestic
prices.

To readers OF the weather re-
ports who have become conscious
lately of some little confusion
therein. this is in the nature OF an
explanation. We. too. are a little
confused at times. But we believe

ours.
Yesterday was a good example.

I tradiCtion Even the Man at the
Bureau admitted it was hot.
Then. everyone also admitted,
II became hotter. The fact II was
the second hottest May Il on rec
ord was also duly reported.
THEN CONFUSION BEGINS
But the late reports started the
confusion. All was well until the
Man at the Bureau, who is some
thing of minor poet too, said
"If IL doesn't shower within
an hour there1l be no rain to-
/ night or tomorrow"
We hadn't asked about that. All
we wanted 10 know for our read
IcrS was, VIII it be a cool evening
and how about tomorrow "
so 1T EVEN Halls
But since he brought it up, VIC
included the information in the
Sports Final and it started raining
10 minutes later. Now, any one
who was in the loop between 4
and ; p. m. knows it definitely
raIned. II came down IN drops the
size of marbles. IL even hailed
some.
But when We called the Man al
the Bureau 10 find out for our
Rcd Line readers how much the
rain cooled things Off, he said:
What rain ."
Pressed for an explanation he
added:
I'VE heard some water fell in
some places. but IL didn't get 10

Make a Game
Ou+ Of Your
Exercises
BY IDA JEAN KAN


equipment you can make a game
of finding better measurements.
All you need for your home gym
Is a stretching bar, a pillow. a
6-pound medicine ball and skip
rope.
You can buy a stretching bar
that adjusts to any doorway. Or
you can simply have a stout rod
cut the width OF the door, and
secure il with sockets that will
hold 1t permanently in place.
Stretching Bar
There are a number of simple
stretching bar exercises which
do superlatiye things for the
figure. One of the easiest and
best for the waistline is to grip
the bar firmly with the hands
and to push down with the heels
until you are standing fiat
footed. Hold for a second. relax,
and repeat 10 or IS times.
Another good waistline trim
mer is to stand close to one side
of the door, grasp the bar. push
down with the heels. and, with
out moving hands or feet, pull
the midriff away from the door.
This sideward arc of the midsec-
ton acts directly on the waist
line duff.
You can vary the exercise by
grasplng the bar near the mid
die. holding the legs together
and swinging hips from side to
side, like a pendulum.
Include Hips
These exercises not only trim
the waist in short order but tend
to flatten the stomach and firm
the upper arms and bust. II you
are not too much Of a softie. you
can include hip-slimming by
swinging alternate legs back and
forth from the hips as you
stretch from the bar.
A pillow suspended from the
rod makes a very good punching
bag. For a workout of the mus
Giles on the backs of the upper
arms, have the pillow about
chest level. To strengthen the
pectoral muscles and lift the
bust. have IT slightly higher, so
that the thrust OF the arms is
upward.
Skipping
One OF the most popular and
least expensive exercise gadgets
is a skip rope. You couldn't ask
for a better circulation logger
and il amounts to a beauty rou-
tine for legs that are thin and
underdeveloped. Skip on the
toes. twice on one foot, then
twice on the other.
For beautifying the arms,
shoulders, bust and throat.
there's no better investment
than a medicine ball. A 6-pound
ball seems to be about the right
weight for most women. Toss
the ball up in the air and catch
il before it falls lower than the
crown of the head Keep tossing
and catching until your arms
begin to feel tired.
Rest for a bit, then do this
stretching and bending exercise:
Stand with the feet parallel but
wide apart. hold the ball high
overhead with both hands, swing
down to one side and rest ball on
floor outside the foot. Back TO
starting position and continue
for five counts. alternating sides.
