Steels were fractional and for the mast part firm. Chrysler backed off from its high and Ford dipped slightly. Chemicals were generally firm but Virginia-Caro line Chemical 6haded on news Justice Department had request ed Socony-Mobil for information on a proposed merger between the two companies.

Control Data, Minneapolis Honeywell and Texas Instruments firmed. WALL STREET CHATTER NEW YORK UPI) - Despite the continued high velocity of business, the Alexander Hamil ton Institute believes that, as the industrial and rail averages reach their peaks, profit taking will become more apparent. The firm says this seems a good time to sit tight with good securities and keep some cash for emergencies. '4 4 '4 United Business Service feels that at current levels, the market is vulnerable to upsets but the longer range outlook remains favorable. The Boston based firm predicts business will shake off the summer doldrums after Labor Day and the pickup will gather strength in the last quarter. G. S. Colby of Colby & Co. says that, based on technical and fundamental indicators, the market will go substantially hlglier over the intermediate and long term. However, Colby says, some irregularity is to be expect ed and periods of weakness should be used for buying good stocks. A key question now, Speak & Staff Inc. says, is whether the slide from tlie June high has been reversed or whether the market is just going through a technical rebound helped to a large degree by a steady flow of bullish news. Leslie M. Pollack of Reynolds Co. continues to believe the strong primary uptrend is still in force and advise a buildup in favored issues.

Dead is Kenneth Elmer Pallics, 18. of 736 L'pham Street, who was caslbound on the Lake of the Woods Highway about 2 p.m. when, he drove his automobile into a railing at the north end of the bridge. The impact of the collision pushed the motor about 2'4 feet Fire Crews Continue Mopping Up Fire-fighters of the Klamath Forest Protective Association are continuing mop - up w o r k on the fire that devastated some 500 acres of timber and brush lands several miles south of the Kcno Radar Station last Aug. 4, George Wardell, supervisor of the KFPA, said today. The fire broke out at Tucker's Cabin on Hamaker Mountain Friday afternoon, Aug. 2, and be fore KFPA crews arrived at the scene it had swept through 35 acres of timber and tall brush. Within several hours, KFPA fire - fighting teams, with assist ance from volunteer crews, had contained the fire but brisk winds later developed and blew flames past the fire lines into unburned areas. It was some two days later be fore more than 100 men using sev en bulldozers and several tank ers were able to establish new fire lines and bring the inferno under control. In establishing the fire lanes, bulldozers shoved piles of brush, dirt, and debris into the smoking nm of the fire. It is this debris that has been smoldering during recent weeks, and in so doing has kept a five- man fire-fighting crew, equipped with two jeeps and a tanker, on mop-up work in the vicinity. During the past several days smoke from 16 piles of debris has been noted and extin guished by the KFPA crews, in addition to a number of burning! trees winch have been fallen, Wardell said. "Crews have been walking un der some of these trees for the past several weeks without not-. mg any evidence of fire. Then suddenly one of them will break into flames from a 'hot snot'l nigh up in the trunk, he ex plained. Wardell said the crews have been falling about one such tree a day. He w'as unable to determine how much longer the crews would be required to maintain their vigil along the fire lines.
