double what they were year ago. Under
those conditions the longs quickly lost con-
fidence and began to unload. For the first
hour there was liquidation selling on stop
loss orders and on exhausted margins. Sep

down to 764c, and July which left off Satur-
day at 92S4c. declined TO SS14c. There was
little rally when the early short sellers
started to buy in and secure profits but
