WALL STREET NEW YORK (UPD-Gains of a point or more in nearly a dozen sugar stocks featured an other wise narrowly mixed and moder ately active stock market today. Sizable gains in American Crys tal, North American, South Puerto Rico, Great Western, Holly, Cen tral Aguirre, Amalgamated, American and National have been indirectly attributed to hurricane Flora now raging over Cuban sugar crops. Although Cuban sugar is no longer purchased in the U.S., it was noted that its loss is felt on the world market and the effect transmitted thereby to the domes tic market. WALL STREET CHATTER NEW YORK (UPI) - Invest ment advisers Brohman, Cum mings Jt Co. expect that during the rest of October the popular averages will continue to show wide day-to-day price swings on comparatively low volume "say between 720-750 in the Dow-Jones industrials." However, it adds, despite the prospect of continued whiplashing and milling around, "there is the possibility that interest may broaden into the many deserving! issues which have gone nowhere since last spring." As for Novem ber the advisers believe the market will be making new highs then. Martin Gilbert of Van Alstyne, Noel & Co. says that the recent correction does not mean that the upward movement has stopped. It is true that the bears put up a rough fight," he adds, "but their sales apparently were well absorbed with buyers bidding up after more."

The suit stems from a decision last month by remaining members of the Klamath Tribe to seek a professional study of utilization of their multi-million - dollar properties in Klamath Countv. The bank maintains that it is improper to spend tribal funds for this study and filed the friendly suit Friday for a deel sion by the court on this matter I he remamuig members of the Klamath tribe met in Chiloquui Sept. 20 and voted to seek the study. Their attorney, Donald Gormley, said in his opinion the expenditure of trust funds for this purpose is proper. The Indians are seeking the study which would furnish them with information on their proper ties before they vote March 3, 1964, on whether to end the trust continue it, or make other ar rangements. It is estimated that the inde pendent study will cost about $10,- 000. The 1959 agreement also covers Modoc Indians and the Yahooskin1 band of Snake Indians, but this particular case does not directly affect these tribes. Death Takes Ray Smith Ray C.

' Active Suburban Fire Department Has Grown Steadily Since Editor's Note: This Is the first In a series of articles this week on the operation of local fire de partments in connection with Fire Prevention Week across the nation. The Suburban Fire Department is responsible for protecting the densely populated South Subur ban area. The department has grown with this area, having been estab-i lished in 1947 as the Suburban region reached the status of a population center. Although Suburban firemen cover an area of only 12 square miles, it is one of the busiest departments in the county. Hard ly a day goes by that Suburban firemen are not called to a grass fire or a blaze in one of the hundreds of houses they protect. Suburban firemen are housed in a station on Gcttlo Street. Five paid Suburban firemen are led by Chief Buster Gordon, who has been chief of the department since its formation in 1947. He is aided by Asst. Chief Ray LaMarshe. engineer Roger Wil kinson and drivers Jim Lane and Leo Kamarad.

A County Fire Depart ment fireman, Leonard Schooler, is also stationed at the Gettle Street facility to drive a County Fire Department truck lodged in the station. He assists Suburban firemen on some of the more dif ficult fires. To battle fires in their area, Suburban firemen have two 750 gallon pumpers, one 500-gallon pumper, and a 1.600-gallon-tank- er. A pickup trucK specially equipped is used to subdue small grass fires. With this equipment, the Subur-! ban firemen last year answered 230 alarms, only two of which were false. From these fires, 135 insurance claims resulted. These claims covered losses of $41,890, but the 6th Graders Visit Forest Some 300 sixth graders of Klam ath County schools were at Doak Mountain Tuesday to participate as students in the second annual Klamath County School Forestry Tour, scheduled for Tuesday through Thursday at Doak Moun tain, the Klamath Forest Protcc live Association has disclosed.

This week, in connection with Fire Prevention Week, Suburban firemen are putting on programs in schools in their area, designed to acquaint children with fire hazards and how to eliminate them. In this program, the firemen use a display built by them in their spare time. There are six sections to the display, which is electrically powered. The first unit of the display is the fire triangle illustrating the three things heat, fuel and oxygen necessary for a fire to occur. The second unit is a model of a typical house wiring arrange ment and it is used to explain the dangers of electrical fires. The power of gasoline is shown by the third unit, known as the bazooka." This is a tube which a controlled gasoline ex plosion is shown to the audience. Gasoline vapor flow is shown by the fourth section of the display. An electric arc, known as Ja cob's Ladder, is shown in the fifth section. In the last unit, the firemen show the students that gasoline as a liquid will not burn, but that gasoline fumes are volatile. Chief Gordon said that after this week, this display and iectuie will be offered to organizations other than schools.

The two boards approved a pol- icy which would allow the use of local school buses by other school Proposed Street Vacating Met With Strong Protest A Klamath Falls businessman strenuously objected Monday night to the proposed vacating ol a portion of Oak Street by the city council, and said he would probably file suit if the council- men persist in the action. The businessman, Don Van Fleet, councilmen and the pro ponent of the vacating action, John Moehl of Modoc Lumber Company, argued the proposal for an hour and a half betore the council decided to postpone a decision. The council did. however, va cate a portion of Third Street for Modoc Lumber. This was not contested by Van Fleet, who was accompanied by an attorney at tlie meeting. Councilmen said they would study tlie situation further be fore making a decision. Van Fleet owns two lots near the foot of Oak Street and adja-j cent to Lake Ewauna. He said he intends to develop the site into a manufacturing plant and that vacating Oak Street would cut his access to the property by one-half. Through his attorney. Van Fleet said machinery already at the site is valued at more than $40,000 and the land itself at about $100,000. Vacating of Oak Street, he said, would leave Second Street as the only access to his property. And. he said, Second Street is con gested with lumber and vehicles from Modoc. Van Fleet said he has plans for developing a small manufactur ing plant at the site and would need both rail and rood transpor tation facilities. Council Waller Fleet suggested 23 yeaU Ap Mondoy, October 7, 1940 Approximately 600 bucks more than were handled oh lost season have been . checked in ot the Klamalh Falls Creamery, indicating by for the heaviest deer kill in any season on record here.

Truck Crash Hurts Driver BLy A 38-year-old Klamath Falls man was severely injured Monday afternoon .when his log ging truck overturned on a private logging road 18 miles north of here. Peace Ambulance reported that Melvin Crumpacker, 430 Washing ton Street, was taken to Klamath Valley Hospital with possible chest and head injuries and numerous abrasions. He was reported in "satisfactory" condition at the hospital today. Peace said Crumpacker is an employe of Raymond Logging Company. He was found shortly after the accident by a U.S. Forest Service employe. Crumpacker apparently lost con trol of the truck before it over turned. The accident site is 12 miles south of Camp 9. that vacating Oak Street would actually improve the Second Street access by removing Modoc Lumber traffic from that street and asked Van Fleet's reaction to this suggestion. "Our reaction, of course, is one of horror," the attorney replied. Moehl said his firm has plans for the development of the sile as an industrial park and indi cated that several other firms are interested in moving into the site. He changed his original re quest and asked for vacating of Oak just between Second and Third and not clear to the lake. Also, he asked vacating Third from Oak to Willow streets. The latter request was granted. Subdivider John Glubrecht ap peared before the council and asked a zoning change for tlie Loma Linda addition to allow construction of multiple - family residences.
