New Bull Movement Signalled on Market
By ELMER C. WALZER
United Press Financial Editor
New York (IP) Stocks
this week broke through a
hitherto impenetrable barrier
and signaled what chart ex
perts hailed as a new bull
movement -that could carry
on for several weeks.
; This barrier was set on'
Nov. 29, 1957, at 449.87 in
the industrial average. It was
level that attracted new
elling each time it was ap
proached until the late Fri
day dealing when it was
pierced with such vigor that
tickers ran late for a few min
utes. This operation was purely
technical and had nothing to
do with the news which tend
ed toward the bearish side
despite moves toward easier
money and high consumer
buying at retail.

Trainers Crash
Near Japan Sea
Iwakuni, Japan (IP) -Three
U.S. Air Force jet trainers
crashed into the sea moments
after they took off together
from the marine air facility
here Saturday. Officers said
all three pilots were presumed
dead.
Rescue crews searching in
darkness found one crash hel
met, bits of wreckage and a
"portion" of one body, a
Marine Base spokesman said.
Two helicopters, two Navy
search planes and small rescue
craft began the search short
ly after the F-84G trainers
went down, at 7:12 p.m. (5:12
a.m., EST). It was called off
at midnight, to be resumed
at daybreak.
"The only thing that is
definitely known, a Marine
officer said, "was that one
flash of light was seen on the
water where one of the planes
went down. We don't know
if they flamed out, collided,
or what."
The planes made radio con
tact as they were being
cleared for takeoff but there
was no contact by radio after
that. They were in the air for
only about one minute when
the flash of light was seen on
the water.

Sirius Visible Early in
Evening in Southeast
By FAY BENTLEY
His body is dark but a. star
on his jaw sparkles with more
life than any other star,"
wrote the Greek poet Aratos,
as he referred realistically to
Sirius, the brightest star in
all the heavens.
Sirius is not only the most
brilliant star in the entire sky
but is observable from every
habitable portion of the earth
and from ancient times has
been a night time center of
attraction to all the peoples
of the globe. The matchless
brilliance of this giant sun
has made it historically the
most interesting of all the
stars in the celestial firma
ment. Canis Major is a legendary
dog that always accompanied
the Mighty Hunter, Orion, in
his search for game. Sirius,
also known as the Dog Star,
forms the head of the Great
Dog.
Associated with Idea
Although from ancient
times this constellation has
been pictured as one of
Orion's hounds, we find that
nations unacquainted with
the myth of the Mighty Hunt
er has associated Sirius with
the idea of a dog.
The name and form of Ca
nis Major seem to have come
from the Egyptians who
watched the rising of the star,
Sirius, with unusual care. The
morning appearance of this
"King of Suns," marked the
swelling of the Nile river.
It was highly important to
foretell the time of this event
as people in the flood areas
had to, leave their homes
while . the fertilizing waters
inundated their land. To these
families, Sirius seemed like a
faithful dog whose appear
ance was a reminder of dan
ger. Named Nile Star
The Egyptians often called
this star, A n u b i s, which
means the dog or monitor. It
was also named the "Nile
Star," and held in great rev
erence because of the service
rendered. As many as seven
Egyptian temples were ar
ranged in such a manner that
light rays from this brilliant
sun as it rose or set could
touch the inner altar or holy
of holies.
Anubis, pictured as a man
with the head of a dog was
deified and worshipped. As a
flood warning he was painted
with wings on his feet, a ket
tle in his arms, and a large
feather under his arm. Fol
lowing close behind him were
two reptiles, a duck, and a
tortoise. This sign reminded
many families that moving
day had arrived.
In mythology, Canis Major,
the favorite hound of Orion
was left on the island of Chios
when ..his master journeyed
to the sun temple to obtain
healing for his eyes which
had been blinded at the order
of the king of the island.
With restored vision he
went to live on the island of
Crete where he followed the
hounds with Diana, the moon
goddess, till Apollo, her broth
er, tricked her into killing
Orion with one of her arrows.
All this time Canis Major
was dying of loneliness and
starvation as he searched day
by day for his beloved master
on the island of Chios. In com
passion, Jupiter placed them
both in the sky where they
might hunt together through
out eternity.
By 8 p.m., Canis Major is
well above the southeastern
horizon. It can be easily lo
cated by beginning with the
Belt of Orion. This is a short
slanted line of three stars of
equal brightness and equally
spaced. At 8 p.m., it will be
found in the southeastern
sky about half way between
the horizon and the overhead
point.
An imaginary line begin
ning at the top star in the
Belt and continuing through
the stars of the Belt down
ward to the left for about 24
degrees will point out the
star, Sirius, head of the Big
Dog. The Belt is three degrees
long.
Dimmer stars outline a sort
of stick figure body, long and
slender. However, it required
a vivid imagination to see the
form of a dog in this star
group.

"A second evidence of the
musical renaissance is the
fact that orchestras are spring
ing up all over the country.
I conduct the Houston Symp
hony Orchestra, but there are
two others in the same city.
Many cities have three or
chestras. "And another thing I
notice more and more talent
ed individual artists, instru
menalists and singers."
Stokowski began waving
his eloquent hands before
symphony orchestras as a
conductor more than 50 years
ago and has pursued his ca
reer through the concert halls
of many cities in radio,
on records and in four movies.
But he does not care to dwell
in the past.

"Iri the world of politics,
there is the frontier, the bor

countries, my programs will
be half American and half the

Would his American selec

"It will be all new Ameri

the last four years. And two
of the works were composed
in the last four months,"
How come he's using such
new American stuff?
"Because I like it," Stokow
ski replied emphatically.
. Why?
"It's beautiful, dynamic, an
expression of life today be
cause it's good music."

Syracuse, N. Y. (IP) A
five-foot, 119-pound member
of the Brotherhood of Rail
road Trainmen sees " nothing
strange about being the local
group's single female mem
ber. Mrs. Irene Ingison, 40,
works as a switch tender in
the New York Central sys
tem's freight train yards. She
considers, her job a most lady
like tcisk
"Why not?" she said. "It's
a woman's world."
The pert, red-haired train
woman works at night. Mrs.
Ingison's work consists of
yanking those hand-operated
rail switches that route the
trains through the yards.
Tender Hands
She wears trainmen's cov
eralls, T-shirts and boots. On
tough days Mrs. Ingison gets
worse than dishpan hands.
"It's not exactly washing
dishes," she said. "But it pays
a darn sight more.
"Most women are flabber
gasted when they find out
what I do for a ,living. It used
to kind of get me. But now
I'm proud of it."
Mrs. Ingison, the mother of
a 17-year-old boy, joined the
railroad yards crew during
World War II when able-bodied
men in civilian dress were
hard to find. Many other wo
men also did.
Just One Of The Boys
Unlike the rest, Mrs. Ingi
son stayed on after V-J day.
"I've been doing this for near
ly 14 years," she said. "It's a
riot.
"There was the time I was
working in a railroad yard
shed and two bums stumbled
in. They took one look and
ran off yelling that the world
was turning against them.
Some people just can't stand
change," she laughed.
"The train crews used to
gawk ' and stare when they
first saw me," she said. "Now
they take it in stride. It
used to make the fellows tone
down their language.
"But not anymore. Now
they think of me as just one
of the fellows."
