July S, 1963 WALL STREET NEW YORK (UPIl - Stocks made good progress through the! early part of the session but late1 profit taking slowed the advance in the final hour and a number of Issues were pulled below their best levels. Steels were mixed with U.S Steel easing while Bethlehem, Youngstown and Republic held dose to Tuesday's levels. Nation al Steel backtracked. Motors were fractionally higher Du Pont ran ahead nearly 2 in a firm chemicals section which in. eluded modest gains in Eastman Kodak, Union Carbide and Allied Chemical. In the oils, Mission De velopment, Texaco, Barber Oil and Union Oil of California im proved substantially. IBM soared more than 3 in a strong electronics group followed by Beckman and Minneapolis-Hon eywell with gains ot more than 2 each. Vanan ran counter to the trend, losing more than 2 points. Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK (UPD Kenneth Ward of Hayden, Stone It Co. terms the current market an "era of specialists and specialties" where the prevailing and poten tial value of stocks should not be confused with surface facts and figures pertaining to a majority of issues. Ward says each stock should be analyzed and appraised on its own statistical and technical mer its and purchases and saies should be motivated by such studies rather than by the mis leading performances of other stocks, or the averages. Ralph A. Rotnem of Harris, Upham & Co. feels that if tho normal course is to be followed in the current bull market, there should be a broadening of inter est coupled with an expansion of volume and tins should add aid to the fire. He also feels the odd lot figures should be watched closely for a clue to the extent! of public participation. Investors Research Co. says there is not the slightest indica tion that the bull market of 1X2-1 63 has run into trouble. The firm says that whenever a bull mar ket Is in existence, the investor must count on the forces which started the upsurge to gradually smother reactionary tendencies and restore the price trend.

McCor- were believed to have started a nack said. Without the adverse' eampfire which went out of con-conditions created by the ele trol and burned about 300 acres ments, the blaze could have been of grazing land on the ranches of Lcland Pnpe and Gerald West, near Merrill, yesterday, accord- ing to Frank McCornack, county fire marshal. The lire started about noon and moved along the ridge of tlie hill pushed by a fresh southern wind. It was the w ind and the worse grass conditions In years that Oregon Bells To Ring (Continued from Page 1) Oregon was purchased in New York by Gov. George Abemethy lor the Methodist Episcopal Church of Oregon City. It weighed over 500 pounds and was first rung on July 4, 1851. It crashed to! the ground when the church: burned several years later, Probably the oldest bell in the state is now at the Oregon His torical Society Museum. Cast in Europe in 1761, the handsome bell came to this state in 1854, after1 it had been dedicated to "the! glory of the only God" by Europe an craftsman Eric Lindeman. It was sold by Capt. Paul Corno of tlie ship, "Jane A. Falkenberg,", to Job Ross of the Ross Hotel in Astoria. There are many other' bells, mostly church bells that have rung for services over the state, some from the days before state hood. Klamath County bells are wide ly scattered and not loo numer-i ous. When bells went out of style with the use of chimes in church-' es and electrically-operated sig nals in schoolhouses, some of the old bells were taken from belfries and stored away. There arc two bells on the campus of Klamath Union High School, the clapperlcss bell or,: the grounds that once hung in the old city hall, and a smaller, mobile bell used on Modoc Field by the .athletic department of KUHS which came from River side School. The familiar sound lo an earli er generation, of the bells that once called parishioners to wor ship, are now seldom heard. The bells, if preserved, are merely symbols, set in concrete or on timbered bases. 1 There are old farm bells, and dinner bells, sheep bells and cow: bells. Used as ornaments In local homes are temple bells from the Far Easl. Anyone wno lias a lieu Or can beg or borrow one, is urged to take part in tile "Bells Across the Nation," by members of Scon- chin Society Children of the Amer ican Revolution, members of the Daughters of the American Colon, isls, and others interested in pa triotism in America.

Before McCornack left the scene eight hours later, 40 or 50 men and fire equipment and vehicles representing tlie Merrill. Malin and OTI fire departments and the Klamath Forest Protective As sociation had worked together In suppressing the fire. Several water drops were made i the fire from an aircraft ni- loted by Jack Mulkey. Tlie fire was confined to ranse- land and did not destroy any real property, although it burned near some farm buildings. McCornack urged people pass ing through brush and grasslands this summer to be particularly conscious of tlie fire hazard.
