WALL STREET NEW YORK (UPI) - Stocks opened sharply lower today, ral lied during the afternoon but dropped again at the close. Steels paced the selloff follow ing news that a federal grand jury had subpoened a number of major steel producers, presum ably to provide information con cerning the recent steel price increases. More than a dozen steels suf fered losses ranging from 1 to 5 points at the outset. Some of these managed to regain some ground but Armco, Bethlehem, Allegheny Ludlum, Lukens, Na tional, Republic, Inland, Jones & Laughlin, Youngstown Sheet and U. S. Steel were still off considerably at the close. Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK (UPD-Standard & Poor's says that "the outlook for a near-term recovery in sales of shoe manufacturers is considered relatively favorable The industry -was hampered by a number of problems In the forepart of 1963 but indications point to a recovery in shoe out put in the final quarter of this year, probably above the year- earlier production of some 1150 million pairs." Harris, Upham 4 Co. says that "the hope of tax cuts, the expectation of election year stimulants, tho approach of the period of more liberal dividend declarations and the rising trend of earnings should provide fuel for further market gains. Investment adviser James Dines says to "remain on full alert, being especially on guard against a decline to 736 in the Dow Jones industrials which will probably trigger a sell signal."

Take a look at the West hand only. Your opponents have reached four spades on simple strong bidding and you are on lead. You want to make an at tacking lead and your problem is to decide whether the heart suit or the diamond suit is bet ter for attack. If your partner holds only two hearts you want to get the king of hearts right on the table, but the chances are that If anyone is short in hearts it will be the doclaror. So you decide to start on the diamond suit and try to get a diamond trick set up. It is a mighty wise decision. Once you open that queen of diamonds you will bo able to get In a diamond trick before declarer has time to set up dum my's Jack of hearts for a dis card. You will also make your ace and king of hearts and your partner will get his ace of clubs. Incidentally, it Is worthy of note that South has an absolute cinch for three no-trump and maybe North and South should get to that contract. It would be easy enough if South opened one no-trump, but with 18 high card points and a strong five-card suit his hand is too strong. There are two other ways to get there. Ono is (or North to respond one no-trump instead of two spades. The other Is for South to rebid in no-trump in stead of spades. All in all the main point Is that tlte way to reach three no - trump is (or someone to bid no-trump some time or oilier. Read "Win at Bridge With Oswald Jacoby."

Answer Tomorrow Bob Jones' Southern Oregon Insurance Agency araoo anasta way TU-1-4671 turned indictments against 12 others, submitted four secret indictments, and issued four true bills in its regular report to the court. The four exonerated by t h e grand jury were John Dobran ski. larceny of a calf; Glenn Dale Ratcliff, burglary not in a dwelling, and Louis Harvey Gibbons and Jesse Don Ledbet tcr, both accused of assault with a dangerous weapon. The re-indictment of Unsworth was another in a series of de velopments which occurred since last summer when the State Su preme Court set aside the slay er's murder conviction of last year. Since then, Unsworth has dismissed his two lawyers and appointed as his attorney Rich ard J. Smith, in a move which preceded Judge Piper's setting of Nov. 18 as the date for the retrial. Tho district attorney's office said following the grand jury re port that Unsworth's re-indictment was based on a technical ity and it conjectured that the Nov. 18 trial dafe would be re affirmed by thefcourt during ar raignments set for later today.

As it stands, the city elemen tary (District 1) and KUHS (District 2 boards have, through the years, maintained a constant appraisal of their as sets by the General Appraisal Company. , But the county schools base their estimations of value on an appraisal done by their insur ance firm. It was reported by Hunsaker Monday that the county school officials are still adamant against paying for an independ ent appraisal of their properties. Hunsaker did say, however, that the possibility of the coun ty board's insurance company doing an appraisal of city prop erties is being investigated. But elementary board members Monday night indicated they felt this might not be entirely satisfactory. If Districts 1 and 2 and the county board maintain their re spective positions without reach ing accord, the decision will be left to the county court. It was reported that Superin tendent Robinson, without using a common yardstick of school property values, has worked out the division of assets. But elementary board mem bers said this set of figures is worthless without a common yardstick. The elementary board Mon day night stand calling for can cellation of all consideration of assets if a common yardstick cannot be found was the same stand taken by Hunsaker at last week's executive meeting. And this stand apparently has the sharp disapproval of County Superintendent Robinson. He told the Herald and News last week this would deprive county school taxpayers of more than a half-million dollars and this couldn't be justified. Robinson's estimate of more than a half-million dollars is based on his estimation of over lap school values, which are calculated on two different yard sticks of value. This is the resolution adopted Monday night: "District No. 1 is of the opin ion that if a division of assets is to be made on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the basis for such a division should be a common independent appraisal. The properties of District 1 have been appraised by the General Appraisal Company and values are established according to de preciated and replacement schedules. "District No. 1 is also of the opinion that such items of assets as are used should be the same in all districts involved, and that those items should include all assets toward which the tax payers in the areas affected have made a contribution. "In the absence of values measured by a common ap praisal and consistency in the items included in the assets, the board sees no other alternative than to cancel all consideration of assets and each board pay tuition to the other for the chil dren they educate from the op posite districts." Along with the resolution, ele 23 tyeGM Ap Monday, October 21, 1940 The Loko county court plans to transport the Lake county totem pole from the court in the Shasto Cascade Wonderland court at Treas ure Islond to the county courthouse lawn at Lokeview.

Fur thermore, the board recom mended that "there be no local school committees in the new district. These were other items on which the county court had asked the recommendations of all three school boards. In other business Monday night, the elementary board ac cepted the resignation of Rich ard J. Hicks from the school budget committee. Hicks, f o r mer partner in the Market Bas ket stores here, said he has sold his business interest and moved to Grants Pass. No replacement was appointed. The elementary board also ap proved a working agreement with school custodial person nel which was prepared by the administration. It was in dicated that other classes of em ployes may be included in the agreement at a later date.
