plies of lighter weights were fully adequate
and being pudied to clear, 3 pound and
over sizes were about adequate. Less than

cents. Live supplies were adequate. Aver
age live weights were lighter than desired
but some improvement was noted. Pro
cessing schedules were moderate. The
trade sentiment was cautiously steady. In
die parts complex, supplies of wings were
short of the active buyer inquiries, cutlets
were adequate, wfaple breasts were at least
adequate, legs and leg quarters were fully
adequate to ample and slow to dear even
with lower asking prices.
