WIND COLLISIONS IN MASSIVE ECCENTRIC BINARIES SERVE AS ASTROPHYSICAL LABORATORIES TO PROBE THE MASS LOSS PROCESS THE GENERATION OF SHOCKED PLASMA AND THE ACCELERATION OF COSMIC RAYS PRODUCED IN THE SHOCK WHERE THE WIND COLLIDES WITH EITHER THE WIND FROM A COMPANION OR THE COMPANION STAR ITSELF. WE REQUEST TWO XMM OBSERVATIONS OF MWC 314 A MASSIVE PROBABLE LBV STAR AND RECENTLY IDENTIFIED ECCENTRIC SEMI-DETACHED BINARY SHOWING SIGNS OF ORBITALLY-MODULATED WINDS. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST X-RAY OBSERVATION OF THIS IMPORTANT SYSTEM AND WILL SERVE AS A BASELINE FOR MORE DETAILED FOLLOWUP MONITORING X-RAY OBSERVATIONS IF WARRANTED.
