Ford MIDWAY FORD SALES, INC. 1120 Sheridan Phone 44491 Pick-Up and Delivery Service Wheat Up; Others Dip Corn and Oats in Decline Below Preceding Level After Opening Firm By WILLIAM FERRIS CHICAGO, Nov. 26 (AP)-A little new buying was attracted into the wheat pit at the start today and prices ruled steady on the board of trade. Corn and oats, after opening firm, slumped below the preceding close. Most of the buying appeared based on a denial by a Commodity Credit corporation official that the government had withdrawn from the cash wheat market.

This rumor prevailed yesterday and had considerable influence in causing a price break. Wheat near the end of the first hour was unchanged to cent higher, December corn was lower to higher, December and oats were 1 cent lower to higher, December March soybeans were up 2 cents, $3.88. Despite the CCC's official denial, Ed Boerner of Harris, Upham and Company pointed out "there is no doubt the agency has slowed down its buying pace considerably and a possible temporary in halt view of would the be comfortable entirely position in which the CCC finds itself. The weekly government weather report said the drought area in the southwest winter wheat belt had been further relieved by moisture in the past week, with prospects improved. Clear and cold was forecast for Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska today, tonight and tomorrow.

Although conditions have improved, the Uhlmann Grain company said, "If we had to make an estimate right now, we would a guess that winter wheat production next summer will not exceed 750,000,000 bushels. This would still give us a chance to raise a billionbushel total crop, although chances are against it." The company said the hoped-for carry-over of 140,000,000 to 000 bushels "is hardly enough to take care of our present large population in the event of a crop failure in 1948." The market will be closed tomorrow, Thanksgiving Day. Pre-Thanksgiving Buying Is Heavy City Market Sellers Find Plenty of Customers Opening on Wednesday because the regular market will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, 51 sellers found plenty of customers for their wares. Prices were generally unchanged. Dressed hen turkeys sold for 60 to 65 cents a pound, while "toms" brought 50 to 58 cents, shattering speculation that they might go as high as 80 cents a pound.

(State Journal) Photo.) Explosion Rips Detroiter's Car DETROIT, Nov. 26 (P)A dynamite blast early today ripped the front a seat of a 1947 automobile owned by Ray Dooe, business agent for an estimated 1,000 striking C. I. O. garage mechanics.

No one injured. Dooe was at home, having loaned the car to Angelo Doddie, an international representative of the C. I. United Auto Workers. Doddie told police he parked in a downtown lot near the headquarters of Garage Workers Local 415 and had left the car about 15 minutes before the explosion occurred.

The blast tore a large hole in the front seat, smashed the windows and ripped upholstery throughout the interior.

At All Drugstores David Machtel, tenor, was given an ovation in his recital in the Michigan State college music auditorium Tuesday night. He is a member of the college music fraternity. In his second public concert since he came to State's campus he revealed growth in stage personality, music versatility and ease. In six groups of numbers he arranged contrasts in voice handling and mood. Opera selections as well as the charter pieces, revealed his dramatic acumen.

The joyfully-serene "Alma Mia" (Handel) gave good introduction for one of the impressive moments, that of "Total Eclipse" from "Samson" in which the singer lived the tragic thought of this impressive piece, touching It with finish and meticulous voice control. The audience liked, too the selection from the Von Gluck with its restrained and moving handling, and from "Fedora" with its lyrical, but subdued mood. In the German group, Wolf's "Nun Wandre Maria" had especial interest since it was new to many. The Strauss selection was outstanding in voice challenge. Nice contrast was afforded in the Debussy aria and the lesser-known "Tes Yeux" (Rabey) which was one of the best-adapted of the evening.

Rachmaninoff's "To the closing one group, was movingly done. Mr. Machtel's wide range of music literature was evident in his closing group in which "Smoky River" was a rare bit of work. Samuel Barber's "Sure on This Shining Night" was more for its mood than its music. "Witness" was an audience sensation.

Encore followed encore until it would seem that the audience was determined to hear all the songs -spiritual, folk and popular classics- that the singer knew. Wendell Westcott, at the piano, took his share of applause for his usual versatility and technique. -E. S. Prof.
