Iloreb Pin Team Faces Lodi Friday TRI COUNTY BOWLING 15 Chicago Com Prices Score Gains of Cent CHICAGO, Jan 15 (IP) Corn prices continued their creeping advance today, scoring gains of almost a cent at times reflecting a let-up in country selling and the materially improved corn-hog price feeding ratio. Wheat rose sympathetically with corn. There was an absence of pressure in the pit and scattered purchases credited to previous short sellers as well as cash gram dealers and millers lifting hedges strengthened the market. Receipts were; wheat 8 cars, corn 109, oats 11.

Corn closed cent higher than yesterday, May 64-, July 63; wheat unchanged to up, May 87 July 82-'; oats higher.

By FRANCIS WALLACE (Widely-known Sports Authority and Writer) I HAVE been asked by my old pal Harry to help fill his space while he is cavorting on the beach at Waikiki. Any subject, he says, will do. Okay.

My subject is Grayson. I always figure that people who read a writer every day are interested In what kind of a guy he is. At least, back in the old home town of Bellaire, Ohio, the fans are always asking me about the personalities of writers. Well, Grayson is just like Grayson. Hes unique.

Hes a 'living legend among the sport writers and that's why 1 think hes worth writing about for the boys are cynically modest about publicizing each other. Harry is a regular guy and a great newspaperman. He gets Impulses and follows them to strange places such as Waikiki. He has a sense of humor and he also has all the masculine virtues you can think of. HE'S somewhere around 40 but he hops around like a 20-year-old.

He keeps in shape probably without any effort. He's about 6 feet, 180, has sharp dark eyes, plenty of hair that Is edging from black to gray. His voice Is quick and he knows all the American dialects, Including the profane. He's always good for laughs and he tells a story better than he knows. He has a full background in sports and he knows as many people personally as any other man you can mention.

I get around some myself in a years time; and wherever I go I look for Grayson and usually find him. He's where the fun and laughs are but the thing about Grayson Is that he's always working. He is always looking for an angle and hes always asking questions. He can get more work out of other newspapermen than anybody I know; and I don't know any reporter who gives more to his job. I first met him in New York about 15 years ago.

He came there with a reputation from the coast. Since then America has been his field. He's a real rambler. He's welcome anywhere except in those circles where he ha3 recently told somebody the truth where it hurt either in print or vocally. He does either very well.

HIS friends and pals are legion. He went to Cuba a few years ago on a holiday and became a pal of the dictator. Now when Grayson goes back, the army meets him. There's an economic waste at the moment with Grayson at Waikiki. He should be in the war zone.

Grayson would wake those generals up in the middle of the night. Hed make a parachute landing In London. Hed have Churchill writing pieces for him and he'd tell Hitler exactly where to get off and probably get away with it. In fact, he and I tried just that during the World Series in Cincinnati. We were at a bar at 3 in the morning and life was pleasant.

I said that the trouble with Hitler was that he didn't know how to have tun. The idea appealed to Grayson and he immediately put in a call for Hitler collect. But Hitler never answered. Perhaps he'd heard of Gravson. MADISON MARKETS LIVESTOCK MARKET BY OSCAR MAYER CO.

The market seemed to give ground mainly from lack of buying support rather than important selling. Transactions, approximating 400,000 shares, were the smallest in three months. Selective demand for individual issues again was evident in scattered gains and new 1940-41 peaks, chiefly among preferred stocks. The rising trend of basic commodity prices since large-scale defense expenditures began to dominate industrial conditions was spotlighted anew by a steep upturn in hogs. Commodities on the whole were uneven but an undertone of strength was noticeable in various markets benefitting from expansion of urban buying power.

Up fractions to more than a point most of the day were U. S. Industrial Alcohol, American Sugar Refining preferred, Consolidated Cigar and Associated Dry Goods second preferred.

His statement came after President Joseph Triner of the National Boxing association suggested a federal supervisor for the game.

Comiskev Is Authorized to Buy Sox Stock CHICAGO (TP) Mrs. Com-iskey was authorized by Probate Judge John F. O'Connell Tuesday to purchase 1.000 shares of stock in the Chicago White Sox baseball team at not less tln $125 a share. The order was entered on motion of the First National Bank of Chicago, executor of the estate of Mrs. Comis-key's husband, J.

Louis Comiskey, owner of the club. The bank informed the court it must sell the stock to defray expenses of administering the estate, including taxes. The court also authorized the bank to sell $44,000 in Comiskeys real estate holdings and securities to the baseball club, keeping those portions of the estate intact under the corporate name of the club. Attorneys said the Comiskey family eventually would retain control of the club through the shares of the estate acquired by Mrs. Comiskey and her three children, Dorothy, 21; Grade Lou, 19, and Charles, 15, and through the purchase authorized Tuesday.

STRIKES TO SPARE Ball should be aimed inside 10 pin to avoid going off into the gutter (Seventh of 20 Instructive articles on bowling.) BY FREDDIE FISCIIER BOWLING for single pin spares Is largely a matter of control. The kegler should move his position slightly to the left for spares on the right side of the alley, and vice versa. For spares in the middle such as the 2 and 5 pins the approach should be the same as for the strike roll. In rolling for the 7 pin often missed because it looks so easy the bowler must remember it is in the rear row, and the ball has more of a chance to hook before it strikes the pin. The 10 pin is the most common leave for bowlers who aim for 1-3 pocket.

Also, it is one of the hardest to topple. No one should try to roll the ball down the right side at the 10 pin; the ball should be sent across the alley and hit the pin full or on the left side. The hook ball bowler will find it most satisfactory to aim for the left side of the pin, as otherwise his ball Is likely to go off into the gutter. NEXT: Splits.

Bidding for hogs offered in limited quantities was unusually active as the dealers paid sharply higher prices to accumulate supplies. The $9 top made early in the day was within 40 cents of the peak reached in the market immediately after outbreak of the war in Europe. Livestock men attributed the advance to greatly increased demand for meat from consuming interest, including buying in industrial areas stimulated by the defense program and arby purchases. The open market hog run of head plus only 4,000 billed direct was sharply below receipts a week ago and reflected a tightening of supplies due to a letup in country marketing.
