 The Jews said the lun caused them to lose momentum in attacks on Jenin and Tulkarm in the strategic Arabic triangle of north central Palestine. It caused can cellation of another offensive against an Egyptian armored force of up to 5000 men deployed south of Tel Aviv.

BANNERS IN CLOSE GAME,
 DEFEAT SEALS
By HERB WILHoIT

The Seattle Rainiers, like the tortoise in that fabled race, are closing in on the front running San Francisco Seals in the Pacific Coast league.
 Six weeks ago Seattle sat in the cellar. Today they're perched in second place, only three games and handful of percentage points be- hind the Seals. The current series is even at a game apiece.
 Recently Seattle has enjoyed some fancy pitching and last night, when they shaved another game off the Seals margin, 2-1, they benefited by revived hitting form of Ed Mierkowicz in one of those cru- cial spots
 Big Ed, in slump for a week, whacked a triple and scored on an infield out for the winning run in the sixth inning. Johnny ONeil singled in Earl Rapp in the second for Seattle's other tally.
 Seattle didn't win without a struggle, however. Seal runners were tossed out at the plate twice, once in the ninth inning.
 Highlander John Corsica won it for Seattle, giving seven hits to Bill Werle's eight.
 Portland's Beavers shackled the Les Angeles Angels, 60, on Jake Mooty's five-hit pitching.
 It was a bit freakish when Sac ramento got only three hits off Hollywood's George (Pinky) Woods, yet won the ball game, 3-1

FOOD PRICES HOLD
STEADY DESPITE
COMMODITY DROP
Downward Trend In Local Food
Stores Not Expected For
Another Week
Price Trend of Livestock
Grains Continue Down
ward This Week

Budget-pressed householders who
have been trying to determine what
effect the break in livestock, grain
and other commodity prices will have
on the cost of setting the daily table
could find little in the way of price
relief in local food stores the early
part of this week.
With prices remaining generally
steady, Bluffton grocers predicted
full effect of the downward trend,
should it continue, will not be felt
here for at least another week.
In the meantime, farm reaction to
the sharp break in grain prices
found farmers seeking feeding stock,
particularly hogs, in a direct revers-
al of the area trend of early winter
when feedlots generally were de-
populated in line with the practice
of marketing grain instead of feed
ing it to livestock.
Bidding for young pigs showed
signs of revival throughout the
district, and at the same time as
most Of those with marketable stock
refused to sell on the theory that
declining livestock prices may right
themselves in the near future.
For the consumer anxiously await
ing some indication of price breaks
at food stores, the only relief so
far has been minor reductions in the
cost of lard, bacon and flour, altho
bread has nosed downward in a few
special sales.
Except for bacon, prices of meat
also held steady, altho there were
predictions that if the market holds
at lower levels relief to the pocket
books of consumers should not be
long in coming.
In the livestock price drop the
first Of the week, hogs went to .
low of sz2.25 On Tuesday, the lowest
mark in 13 months, and cattle skid
.ded as much as So a hundred.
Grain prices broke again Tuesday,
continuing the downward trend
started last week, altho the market
had strengthened temporarily on
Monday.
Market analysts, however, are ex-
pecting grain to stabilize, at least
temporarily, at about present levels,
and should such be the case, live
stock prices may strengthen, the
principal reason for farm operators
decision to delay selling livestock
now ready for the market.
There was a general feeling in
economic circles, however, that con-
sumers should not expect too much
too soon in the way of price relief
in foods, and most analysts said the
break has been of too short dura-
ton to determine long-range implica-
tions.
