STEADY BUYING MOVES FUTURE PRICES HIGHER y Firm Securities Tone Is Factor in Early Upturn. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Corresoondent CHICAGO, March 15.—Failure of Liverpool to reflect fully the sharp decline here Monday and firmness in stocks gave wheat a good fractional recovery at the Board of Trade opened today. The gain was uneven, with the nearby months up most. Liverpool was meeting a better demand on the decline. Corn firmed up with wheat, but the advance was small at the start. Oats was about steady, but rye was weak. Wet Defeat Bearish At the opening wheat was % to ~' s cent higher, corn was % to % cent higher and oats unchanged to Vi cent higher. Rye was U cent lower to % cent higher. Provisions were around steady. Liverpool was off only % to % cent at mid-afternoon. It was a distinct disappointment to the trade, the defeat of the wet proposal in Washington, a majority having hoped for some liberalization of the Volstead act that would tend to remove part of the huge surplus of wheat in the United States. This was reflected in the sharp break and heavy close on general liquidation. Temperatures Move Up Temperatures are rising over the entire belt and unsettled weather is looked for tonight or Wednesday. The same influences operative In wheat affected corn. The market lost heavily at the last, but not as much as wheat, because of the smaller long interest. The break in futures shut off country offerings, and this is expected to aid the cash market Liquidation brought oats to a heavy close after comparative dullness early.

-Pin GossipBY LEFTY LEE
Members of the St. Philip A. C. are up in arms over the report that the 300 score rolled by Milt Wimberly during the rolloff of a postponed series, would not receive recognition and a medal from the American Bowling Congress. The boys from out east need not worry so soon. The rules of the A. B. C. provide that the national committee rule on these awards, the duties of the local officials being to check the drives and pons, and forward the score sheet duly attested within a period of five days after the honor count has been rolled. Rules of the A. B. C. provide for postponed games to be played legally, and provide gold medals for perfect games rolled in sanctioned leagues, and as the St. Philip's No. 1 loop is a sanctioned league, we would advise them to send this score to the A. B. C. under the usual conditions. Southern Pacific and Wabash took two games from the L. & N. and Monon. as Indianapolis Union R. R.. New York Central Lines and Pennsy w'on three from B. & 0.. C. & N. W. and Illinois Central. Jeffries topped Walton for high • single game honors, 237 to 235. Carrollton Boosters registered #ie only triple* win during the Reformed Church League series. Second Reformed being the victim. Second Reformed No. 3. Immanuel. St. Paul and First Y. M. C. won two from First Owls. First Tigers, Pleasant Run and Barracus during the other contests. The usual good scores were produced. K. Wacker leading the field with a mark of 645 that included a 267 game. Eder had 640: Jacobs. 635: Pritchard, 632; Held, 611; Unger, 604. and Ake an even 600. Mrs. Bob Ellis and J. Kiesei won the mixed doubles plav on the St. Philip’s A. C. drives over the week-end with a total of 1.212. Second place went to Race Johns and C. Stich with a mark of 1,208. This play was well attended, forty-one teams competing. A start of 236 sent Darnaby on the way to a 643 total during the Optimist League play at Pritchetts, but he was nosed out by Holmes, who finished with a 233 to total 645. Pritchett rolled. 626; Magel, 619 and Sering, 611. Team play resulted in triple wins for Cherios. Fighters and Boosters from Sunnyside. Bert Evers, and Happy Days, and an odd game win for Smiles from Big Brothers. Road Department League games also were played on the Pritchett drives, Slabs and Detours taking three from Monuments and Tangents: as Rip Raps won two from Curves. Bookwalter and Behrens staged a close race for top honors. Bookwaiter being the winner 632 to 630. Overman and Bright provided the pins needed for Perfect Circle to take the entire series from A. C. Plugs during the Gibson Company League play on the Illinois alleys. All other contests W'ere decided two to one. Dodge, Norge. Gates Tires and Pennzoil defeating Super Service Products. Plymouth. G. M. Radio and Arvin Heater. High single and three game totals were won by R. Watson, a 255 in his first game leading to a 614 count. Selmeir won three from Crown No. 2, as Sterling took two from Crown No. 1 during the Laundrv League play Stephenson rolled a 582 to lead this loop The Em Roe and Indianapolis Times bowlers are on the verge of agreeing to roll a match game that has been on the fire for some time. If that old reliable Tom Quinn can be obtained to guard the loul line thg match would be a natural. Two game wins ruled the. Lion League play on the Antler drives, Manes and Ears defeating Whiskers and Tails. St. Joan of Arc League players are hitting the pins in big league style. Monday nights’ plav showing six sets over the 600 line. Joe Born led the field with a total of 641. Argus had, 638. Smith. 624; Pierre. 616; Schmidt, 613 and M.

In the Cotton Markets
(Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, March 14.—The cotton market this morning was a most inconsequential affair. At the opening prices were 2 or 3 points lower, and at noon the loss had been regained in a market without any feature worth mentioning. The market looks completely liquidated. Speculative Interest probably is less than it has been for years and we see nothing on which lower prices can be justified if the contract markets have performed the functions for which they were created. On the other hand, preparations are backward. The acreage is expected to show a substantial reduction. Sales of fertilizer are exceptionally small. In our opinion there is every reason to expect a big decrease in the crop and by the same token a material increase in prices. CHICAGO —March 14— High. Low.
