Stock Market
Quotations
NEW YORK, Oct. 17 (IP) Air
rafts soared over new high ter
ritory for the past year, and util
ities were given a fast buying play
In today's stock market, but many
Tecently strong pivotal leaders
were blown down by profit taking
blasts.
Gains ran to around two points
at the best among the favorites,
while losses of as much and more
were widely distributed elsewhere.
Steels, motors, rubbers, mail or
ders, coppers, rails and special
ties were under pressure, and best
advances in the favored groups
were reduced substantially at the
close.
A wild flat hour put the ticker
tape behind as blocks of 1000 to
' 30,000 shares of low-priced stocks
changed bands in rapid succes
sion. The turnover of 950,000
shares in the Initial period was
one of the largest in months. Deal
ings quieted subsequently and
transfers for the day were around
2,500,000 shares.
