(AP) The Commercial Bulletin will say to morrow: "There has been no excitement on Summer street this week in spite of the fact that the gov ernment has just awarded con tracts on a huge yardage of mili tary fabrics and blankets. The mills evidently are well covered against their requirements either in options or prior purchases or wool. 'These contracts require about 10 million pounds of wool of which apparently 75 per cent will be domestic. This releases a considerable weight of foreign wool for use In civilian fabrics at lower prices, although it re mains to be seen how far civil ian business is available. "The market here has been a bit on the soft side this week, with sales of good topmaklng fine wools at $1.00, clean basis in the original bags and good graded domestic wool at $1.03, clean basis. Some half-blood graded territory as sold at $1.00 $1.02, clean otherwise, little busi ness is reported. "Western operations have been limited, even In the southwest, and growers have been inclin ed to withdraw wool from sale on current bids which have been too low to suit them. "Foreign markets are without material change for the week. "Mohair is quiet but steady." WHEAT. PORTLAND, Ore., July 18.

The Roseburg team took an early lead In Thursday's game, scoring two runs In the first in ning, after two were out, and added three in the second on two strikes, an error and a fielder's choice. . After taking what they appar ently assumed to be a safe lead, the locals relaxed and became careless, permitting Marshfleld to score two In the second, one in the fourth and three In the fifth, put ling the home team out In front C to 5. Locals Regain Lead The Roseburg team, however, buckled down to work In the first of the sixth, when, after two were out, Cummings drew a walk, Baker, Cox, Debernardl and Rust singled In turn, and Wlmberly rapped out a Texas leaguer for two bases to push over a totnl of five runs before the third out was made. The final tally came in the ninth when Shapro walked, was sacrificed to second and scored on Main's sharp single. The locals pounded out 14 nits off Higgins and Murray, the Marshfield chuckers, while Deber nardl allowed seven hits In as manv Innings and Main allowed two hits in the last two frames, after taking Debernardl's place on the hill. Debernardl had five strikeouts and walked two. Main whiffed four batters in two in nings and walked one. As usual, the Roseburg batting attack was paced by Glen Cox, the slugging first sacker, who naa double and two singles. Murray had two triples to lead the Marsh- fed h tters. The same two teams meet hero Sunday afternoon, with the first game of the double-header start ing at 1:30 p. m.
