Chicago Wheat NEW YORK. July 6. (AP) The buying urge came to the surface of the stock market again today after a moderate setback from the Bteep midyear advance had run lta course. A late wave of orders, concentrated mostly on coppers, oils and other industrial groups, gave the market a vigorous shove upward, overcom ing the hesitancy that prevailed most of the session. Early losses running to more than 2 points in representative issues were replaced by gains that ranged to 4 points In the strongest movers. Trading slowed almost to a stand still on the sell-off. making a no ticeable contrast with the buying stampede, then picked up when the rally got going. Transactions ap proximated 1.600,000 ' shares. Some stocks swept ahead to new highs for the bull movement on the late buying wave, notably among the mining, oil and miscellaneous Indus trial groups.

That Is the Jump made by lovely, flame-haired Arleen Whelan. who makes her film debut opposite Warner Baxter in the pic turlzatlon of Robert Louis Steven son's "Kidnapped." opening a four day run today at the Craterian The ater. Not once In years is an unknown cast as leading lady for her very first picture, but It all fits In per fectly with the astounding good fortune that .started Arleen'a way when H. Bruce "Lucky" Humber- stone walked into Pat Regan's ton sorlal parlor on Hollywood Boule vard Just about a year ago. He was getting a haircut when he heard: "Manicure, sir?" It's Humberstone's business to rec- I ognlze screen personality and after watching Arleen s grace and dignity as she went about her work, he offered her a screen test. But, so dubious was she of the offer and Its sincerity that she almost turned It down. However, taking a day off for a test was one of the most for tunate things that could ever hap pen to a girl. Now she is being groomed for big things and "Kid nspped" Is the beginning of what augurs well for the future success of the ex-manlcurlst.

Dramatic Picture of Ex-Convicts on Screen at Rialto A dramatic story of ex -convicts. out on parole and forbidden to marry, Is the powerful theme of the new Sylvia Sidney-George Raft film, 'You and Me," which opened a three-day run yesterday at the RTalto theater. It Is a romance of the city streets. with Miss Sidney as a department store girl who hungers for the right kind of love, and Raft as a casual drifter who awakens to his real self In the pleading arms of the girl who loves him. As usual, Miss Sidney Is at her best in a film of this type, as evi denced by her past successes. "An American Tragedy," "Street Scene," and "Fury." The story deals with the struggles of Miss Sidney and Rait to keep an ideally happy marriage together, de spite their extreme poverty, and Miss Sidney's secret knowledge that she is an ex-convict, out on parole, and forbidden connubial rights. "Silks and Saddles." starring Her man Brlx and Toby Wing, plays as the companion feature. Use Mall Trlbuno Want Ads. Too Much Fourth THE DALLES, uly 8.
