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.

Two youngsters on a campouticaused all-of the IrouWc. McCor-

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-

fire marshal.
The lire started about noon and
moved along the ridge of tlie

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.

began working to control the
blaze early during the afternoon
but it later sought assistance, from
other fire-fighting agencies when
strong winds developed and blew
the flames swiftly along the ridge.
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.
"The grass conditions this vearl
are ansoiulcly the worst that I
have seen in my 54 years in the
Klamath Basin," McCornack said
