Sudden Change in Temperature
More Likely To Result in Colds
By DELOS SMITH

New York W After the
temperature changes sudden
ly, people are more likely to
catch colds
than at other
times. And
people who
live in close
quarters with
children are
more likely to
catch colds

statements were more or less
proved in one of the most
- thorough efforts to date to
; find out how the germs of. the
- common cold and of similar
r respiratory infections get
about and why some people
are more susceptible to them
than others
It was shown again that we
acauire some kind of immu-

we progress from babyhood
into adulthood. But it is an
extremely tricky, unrsliable
Immunity. For example, the

Children Most Susceptible
Yet, the new study found,
children under five who
have never been out in the
world, really, to pick up all
- kinds of germs are the most
susceptible to the common
: cold and similar germs. Chil-
- dren over five those who
are going to school and ac

are less susceptible and be-

- Adults are the least suscepti-
Ible.

rather than individuals as in-
dividuals. After all, the fam

Knocks Old Saying
With Tabulation
By ELMER C. WALZER
United Press Financial Editor
New York OP! There's an
old saying in Wall Street that
when the little fellows buy
more in odd
lots than they
sell, look out,
there's trou
gh Die aneaa.

Jtxcnange nas
knocked the
props from
under that
saw with a
Elmer Walzer tabulation go
ing back to 1937. That tabula
tion shows that the odd-lot-
ters buy more than they sell
most of the time. And, the ex
change says they aren't all
little fellows either because
many big traders also deal in
odd-lots.
And last year odd-lotters
bought nearly 15 million
more shares than they sold
while the market was declin
ing 14 per cent in the Stand
ard & Poor's 500 Stock Index.
The operations of the odd-lot
traders made up nearly 22
per cent of all the business
done on the Stock Exchange
in 1957.
And odd-lot is anything less
than 100 shares in trades
where 100-share lots are
standard and anything less
than 10 shares where 10 is
the unit of trading.
Big Business
This odd-lot business is bg
stuff in the market. It's a
complicated business, and
one of the operations the lit
tle or big trader doesn't have
to know a thing about. He
simply tells his broker to buy
two shares of XYZ common
which is traded in 100-share
full lots, and the machinery is
set in motion.
His broker sends the order
to the post where XYZ is
traded. The order is placed on
a hook and in a twinkling
the odd-lot dealerat that post
takes it. He may have one
share in his inventory. He im
mediately buys another hun
dred shares. That means he
will have an inventory of 99
shares of XYZ stock on hand
until some other purchaser
comes along.

lic health field-epidemiology.
At all times there were 45 to
50 family units under study
and the idea was to find out
who introduced the cold into
the family group, who in the
group was most likely to
catch it once it was introduc
ed and what living conditions
encouraged its spread within
the group.
Only over-crowding was
definitely pinned down as a
condition which helped the
germs spread. There was
some indication that the
young children who were
poorly clad were more sus
ceptible than the children
who weren't, but that wasn't
a definite conclusion.
Since XYZ was selling at
33Vi, the purchaser gets his
two shares at 33 V a share,
the extra eighth being the
dealer's differential. If the
stock sold over 40 the differ
ential would be V4 point.
The tabulation referred to
is carried in the current issue
of "The Exchange," the New
York Stock Exchange maga
zine. Purchases Top Sales
It shows that in 18 of the
21 years cited, odd-lot pur
chases topped sales. Last year
the excess of purchases
amounted to 14,932,827
shares, the largest balance for
any of the 21 years in the tab
ulation. Total odd-lot volume in
1957 was 122,503,127 shares,
third largest in the 21-year
list. The largest was 132,478,
312 in 1937 when it made up
32.4 per cent of all the busi
ness done on the exchange.
The trend of purchasing
continues this year. On Tues
day, customers purchased
290,432 shares in odd-lots and
sold 230,750 odd-lot shares in
the regular way and 4,759
shares short.
Plywood Price Drop
Noted in Portland
Portland (IP) A sharp
drop in Douglas fir plywood
prices was reported here to
day with quotations sagging
$2 to $68 per thousand square
feet for one-half-inch AD in
dex grade. It was the second
decline in two weeks and left
plywood prices equal to last
year's low.
Plywood sheathing prices
held unchanged at $90 on five-eighth-inch
stock. The indus
try blamed increased produc
tion rather than slow demand
for the price drop. Production
has been running about five
per cent higher than a year
ago.
Americans will consume

erage for a sumptuous meal.
Deviled Crabmeat
Delight to Eat
Crab is at its prime and
that is saying' a great deal for
a sweeter, tastier shellfish
does not exist. Our famed
Dungeness crab is found from
the Monterey bay to Alaska
Its meat has a rich sweet dis
tinctive flavor and tender
short fibers. Weight varies
but the two pounder is con
sidered the best value. The
giant King crab comes frozen
from Alaska. A pound of
crabmeat will make this rec
ipe into six taste-tingling
servings.

Broiled Lamb Chops
Heavier lambs reach the
market at this season and are
favored by many. They're of
good quality, good value.
Four types of lamb chops us
ually are available. The loin
chops are easily identified by
the T-bone dividing the sir
loin from the smaller tender
loin muscle. Rib chops are
cut thick and are recognized
by the rib bone. Shoulder
chops usually are cut under
one inch in thickness.
The chop with the round
bone may be pan-broiled but
the shoulder chop with the
blade bone is best braised.
Freshly ground lamb patties
are increasingly popular, by
the way.
For good flavor, sprinkle
lamb chops lightly with
rubbed thyme, rosemary or a
bit of marjoram. Mint jelly
or mint sauce remains unsur
passed for accompanying
lamb to the table.
Lots of Menu Ideas
In February Pentifuls
It's still chickens and tur
keys . in first place among
meat buys. Stewing hens are
a genuine bargain for eating
now, storing in home freezer.
Serve them with dumplings
or egg noodles. Make tamale
pies or long-simmer southern
style in gravy with sliced
stuffed olives or sliced al
monds added. We needn't tell
you of the joys of turkey for
long week end eating with
minimum effort.

with good buys In chucks and
all other long-cooking cuts
along with the old reliable
freshly ground product of
burgers, meat loaf, spaghetti.
Heavier lambs offer good eat
ing at moderate cost. Pork
loins, hams and picnics are
displayed, everywhere. Check
for some really good bacon
buys; not fancy but just as
flavorful. It's frankfurter and
sauerkraut week. Both are
very good buys.
Fish and Shellfish. Enjoy
crabs, cod, flounder, halibut,
oysters, rockfish, sablefish,
salmon.
Eggs and Dairy Products.
Watch for egg specials and
check price for size. Chances
are the large eggs will be the
better buy. Two eggs for
breakfast. A fine caramel cus
tard for dessert. Dairy prod
ucts vary little in price but
are vital to the family's
health. Enjoy cottage cheese
more often; make a rarebit,
cheese souffle or fondue; melt
cheddar cheese on fruit pies.
Vegetable Variety. Western
weather conditions continue
favorable for top quality win
ter vegetables. There's little
waste and much good eating
in cabbage, cauliflower, Brus
sels sprouts, broccoli, celery,
lettuce, winter squash, pars
nips, rutabagas, radishes and
green onions, topped carrots.
Potatoes are a special bargain
in good nutrition. Bake them
and top with chived sour
cbream or pass a cheese
sauce.
Fruit Displays. Not much
variety but excellent quality
in apples, avocados, grape
fruit, lemons and oranges.
Make a generous bowl of am
brosia with orange segments,
banana slices, grated cocount,
layered and let stand a while.
Packaged prunes beckon,
promise good eating.
Other Plenlifuls. Green
peas and corn, canned and
frozen, have the biggest spot
light; are in surplus as result
of last year's record harvests.
Stock up if you can. Peanuts
in the shell, salted and in pea
nut butter are bargain-priced,
nutrition-packed.

refueling point entering the

Morse Urges
Bill Consideration
Washington Sen. Wayne
Morse (D-Ore.) has urged that
state legislatures give "care
ful consideration" to his mod
el legislation concerning
drunk driving tests upon
which agreement was reached
today by a House-Senate con
ference committee.
More expressed confidence
that both houses will speedily
pass the revised version of his
bill which provides objective
standards in the law deter
mining the weight to be given
blood, breath and urine tests
in drunk driving accidents.
"I am glad to see that the
conferees improved the bill
by adding negligent homicide
and manslaughter as crime to
be included. This should
strengthen law enforcement
considerably," Morse ob
served. The Oregon senator added,
"Although the new law per
tains only to the District of
Columbia, considerable na
tional interest has been shown
in it, and many states may
adopt similar laws based on
this model bill."
"I am happy to see that the
Congress has endorsed this
important procedure aimed at
insuring safety on the high
way while protecting the
rights of the innocent. I hope
that the legislatures of states
not having this protection
will give careful considera
tion to this model legisla
tion," Morse concluded.
