WALL STREET NEW YORK (UPD-The stock market turned in a topsy-turvy performance today in reaction to tire Federal Reserve Board's boost of tlie margin require ment. Prices were down sharply at tlie outset, up from their lows at noon but back down again at the close. Trading remained ltcavy throughout the day. Word that tlie board had boosted the margin requirement from 50 to 70 per cent came Tuesday while Wall Street was recessed for election day. The Increase means that in-, vestors may now borrow only 30 per cent of the total amount they need to buy a stock. There were many guesses as to what tlie market would do. However, it became apparent at tlie olose today that, at least for the time being, .Wall Street was taking a dim view of the move. Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK (UP1)' Shear son, Hammill k Co. says that "while longer term prospects for the stock market continue to bo quite favorable, we be lieve that a somewhat greater degree of caution is justified for Hie time being." "The market may be vulner able to some correction in the foreseeable future," it adds, "and it would be prudent for those accounts who are fully invested in equities and heavily margined to increase their li quidity by selling some of the more doubtful issues in their portfolios." Thomson & McKinnon says that "everybody is entitled to rest after a sharp climb and the stock market Is no exception.

Francis Michael Bennett, 43, of 2731 Bisbce Street, told po lice that he was driving the Consolidated Freightways unit in the direction of Klamath Falls and failed to observe the freight train because his vision was blocked by a potato cellar near the highway.
