MARKETS

MARKET IS QUIET WAITING CROP REPORT

(By Associated Press.) CHICAGO, July 9 To a great extent, traders In corn assumed a waiting attitude today and avoided commitments until after the issuance of the government crop report this afternoon. The effect was bearish, as the market tended to sag owing to lack of support. Selling was of only a scattered sort. Opening prices, which varied from unchanged figures to 5-8 lower with August 153 3-4 to 154 and September 154 5-8 to 155, were followed by a material set back all around and then a moderate rally. Oats eased down a little with corn. The fact, though, that country offerings were not large was a steadying factor. After opening unchanged to 1-4 lower with August 69 7-8 to 70, the market declined slightly further and recovered somewhat. Weakness of grain and bogs turned provisions down grade. .The chief drop was In pork.

Baker Believes Baseball Should Not Be Affected

WASHINGTON, July 9. Appeals from decisions of local draft boards holding baseball a non-productive oc-

enpation under the work or fight regi ulations are on their way to Washing

ton for decision by Secretary Baker. Mr. Baker, in confirming today reports

' that such appeals had been filed, said: J "Appreciating thoroughly the fact that

baseball is the national sport rurnishes recreation for millions of people, he disliked to think that it would be adversely affected." He added, however, that this personal opinion of his own must not be taken as forecasting his decision upon the appeals.

SIMMONS DOPED FOR TOURNEY WINNER

Sheldon Simmons' return from work in Dayton has shattered the hopes of other tennis players who expected to win the city tournament. The tourney will be started in the near future and many entries are expected by Playground Director Lyboult. For the last two years Simmons has been the victor and this year there seems no chance of anyone stopping him. In 1916. when a tennis team was organized at Richmond High School, "Shel" was made the captain and he led his teammates to victory in the only match of the year at Anderson. Again in 1917, Simmons, being far

above the other men in tennis ability, j

was appointed captain. When the Anderson high school team came to Richmond to play they were defeated mainly by the playing of the Richmond captain. Anyone who wishes to enter the city tourney may sign up with Mr. Lyboult at the Twenty-second Street Playground.

For several weeks the Germans have been drilling and instructing special attacking divisions behind the German lines leaving the front positions to be guarded by mediocre troops. German aerial activity has decreased in the past few days and it is probable their men also are making ready for the next onslaught. The German artillery fire has increased to above normal only on certain sectors. It is not unlikely the enemy will depend on the element of surprise in the impending blow as he did on March 21 and in the attack against the Chemin des Dames. While the Germans have been spreading reports of an attack against the British, it is now known they have not constructed defensive works on the front between Soissons and Rheims. The usual interval between enemy offensive movements has about expired. Allied Airmen ETusy. Entente airmen are keeping up an active bombardment of the area behind the German lines. British flyers again have invaded Germany dropping bombs on Kaiserlautern, east of Metz. and on Luxemburg. In aerial fighting British and French airmen have accounted for 25 German machines. , Patrol activity and local operations are increasing in number on the Italian mountain front. On the lower Piave the Anstrians, it is estimated, lost 20,000 men killed, wounded and prisoner in the actions last week In which they were driven back across the river, relieving somewhat the

pressure against Venice. In western Albania, French and Italian troops are withstanding strong counter-attacks by the Austrians. All positions have been maintained on the heights of Bolnia and slight progress

made eieswhere.
