in (Continued from Pago A 3) Acres Hog Cattle: Live hog futures closed mixed again today, losing 8 pomts on the spot option and gaining up to 30 points on the defeneds. Today’s closes were at or near session lows in response to long liquidation on positions established earlier in the day. Price dire'lion became uncertain midday on mixed product quotes liter support on the opening was tied to oversold conditions and higher cash mark et prices. Spillover from the cattle pit helped to keep losses in check. Bellies closed from 15 points higher to 95 points lower. The USDA announced after the dose that it will begin to make additional purchases of pork during the next few weeks in an effort to assist producers dur ing this period of falling market prices and large marketings.
