WALL STREET NEW YORK UP1 - Late profit taking whittled down most of tlie market's early gain today and stocks closed steady. A number of issues improved on higher earnings including Olin Mathicson, Reynolds Tobac co, Upjohn, Consolidation Coal, Haveg and Texas Instruments. Dr. Pepper improved in higher earnings and a dividend in crease. Xerox, which reported record third quarter earnings, moved up sharply. Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK (UPI) - Good body & Co. says the "selectiv ity which we have been witnes sing in tlie stock market dur ing tho past month is likely to become even more intense in the next few weeks, particular ly as we get into the tax-switch season." "Therefore," Goodbody con tinued, "price appreciation in any stock is likely to depend to a greater degree than us ual on its Individual merit rath er than on the momentum of the market. The Dow industrial average still has a good chance to reach 800 by the end of the year, but it may drift or back off a bit first before mak ing the attempt." Thomson & McKinnon says that besides the drug stocks, "there are a number of other groups which are beginning to attract real attention and this could very well give the mar ket the breadth which has been so obviously lacking. These in clude the steadily improving steels, tobaccos, building sup pliers, metals and oils." Moltrics, Inc. says that "should the market continue to follow the expected pattern, the final spurt should be starting about now, and the ultimato top for this move should be reached within the next three weeks."

Homecoming Rally Fire Severely Burns Athlete A Klamath Union High School senior was severely burned Thursday night at tlie school's homecoming rally when a bon fire was lit. School officials said Mike Kitclung was burned on his arms and forehead. Kitcliing, a hallback on the Kli football team, wasn't expected to play in tonight's game with the Med ftud team. Tlie burns required a doctor's treatment, but hitching was at school today Several oilier students were singed when the g.tsoline-soaked wood flared up. but none re quired treatment. KU Principal C. E. eleven said that tlie bonfire at the rally site on Birhn Street was supposed to have been lit by a fireman from the City Fire De partment. Hut. lie said, liivmeu were granted by Judge Sanders upon a motion filed jointly by Dis trict Attorney Dale Crabtree and the Attorney for Sheriff Britton. The extension of time was sought because of health rea sons involving the sheriff's at torney. The contempt case developed out of the criminal trial of Rob ert Huitt, of Klamath Agency, who had been indicted on a charge of assault with a danger ous weapon. It was during the trial that the sheriff was charged by the district attorney's office of al legedly discussing the case with a member of the jury panel sit ting in judgment of the Agency man. As a result of the conversa tion, the trial was declared void and the sheriff was cited for criminal contempt of court. At a later trial, another circuit court jury acquitted Huitt of the assault charge. On the other matter, the trial of Charles Francis Clubb, 39, charged with attempted burgla ry not in a dwelling, has been set back from Wednesday to Monday, Dec. 9. Clubb, at large on $2,000 bond, was indicted for the attempted burglary of Larry's Market, 4214 Green Springs Drive. UF Goal Remains Far Away Klamath County has inched a little closer toward its goal of $148,311 in the 1963 United Fund Drive but success was still on the far distant horizon, Phil Parsons, executive secretary of the local fund drive, noted to day. Parsons indicated that as of today $52,243.74 had been col lected, representing 35.2 per cent of the goal set for the county for the drive that ends Oct. 31.

All workers are asked to bring tlieir hoes and large hedge cutting shears for pruning the weeds. The pruning of w e d s near the bottom of the hill means skiing is possible with only a six-inch pack of snow, where otherwise it would take one to two feet to cover the dangerous weeds. The forest service reports that bids arc now being received for construction of the proposed road into the ski area. Clear ing of trees and stumps on the access road has been made, and the parking area has been cleared. A forest service spofcei man stated that the contract for the road should be let by t h e first of the month, with con struction to begin by the end of the first week in November.
