Growers who Btlll retain supplies are as a rule perpetual holders, and do not care to sell no matter what the price Is. There Ms a further Increase In the business offered by Europe and some trade has been closed elsewhere. In California Uhlmnn was the buyer of 700 bnles from R. W. Peterson at Sonoma, but the price was not learn ed. Pinch purchased 350 hales In the Sacramento section but no price was mentioned. The deal was for London nceount. European markets are firmer. A cable from London stated that the market there was extremely firm with very few hops available with the market practically bare of stocks. On the continent the market was re ported firm and advancing with prices up to 10 to 20 shillings and trade bare of stocks. In New York practically no business Is" reported owing to the fact that growers are asking 50c a pound and better while quality is mostly poor. Notice for Levy of 8peclal Road Tax.

There Isn't a doubt that Spraekltnu. quarterback and captain of Hr.m n. could grab any quarterback pusitUMi lu r tlw east, with two possible exce tlous.

Unfortunately Penn State does not travel In such polite so ciety as Brown. But In the Penn game Miller was a revelntlon. D not only proved himself a muster Held gen eral, but his running both from posi tion and in currying back punts equnl ed anything seen on Franklin field In years. Roth are great field generals; both get every lart ounce of power out of their teams: both are dendly accurate In hurling forward passes about: both ran kick and both are sure death ,on j'unts. wltb sped nnd dodging ability enough to run their backs yards farther than the average quarter. It l something of a coincidence thnt Rrown and Penn State with two of the greatest quarterbacks In the coun try should also have . two of the very best ends.

These two. like their teainnintes. could grab ret lar positions on any team. Two other quarterbacks of more than average nhlllty-Cnptnln Pong of Syracuse and Welsh of Carlisle have befln playing considerable football this year. Welsh run something like loo yards for a touchdown In the Penn Carlisle game recently and was so snei-essful In picking the weak spots In the Penn defense that he whs never, once forced to reveal the full strength of his team's attack. Kogg earned his spurs against Mich lgiin a few weeks ago. his general ship going a long way toward enabllm; Syracuse to hold a better football team to a tie score.
