NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-The
rally in stock prices which closed
Mondays session Of the market
was continued in a few of the in
dustrial and speciality stocks in the
early trading today.
A bulge" in General Motors,
which carried the stock back to
PA, was attributed chiefly to short
covering, influenced by President
Sloan's bullish report on August
operations.
There was. not much disposition
of the industrial stocks in general
to follow the lead of this specu-
1ative favorite, though United
State Steel carried its advance to
above 1873 and Atlantic Coast Line,
in the railroad group, to above
229.
A further increase of $22 900 900
in brokers' loans for the week was
considered a negligible factor, be-
covered by the report did not

CARDS and REDS
TO RACE this WEEK.
FOR NATIONAL TITLE

New York, Sept. 19.-(P-Jack
Hendricks and the Cincinnati Reds to-
day were afforded the opportunity Of
writing into baseball history a modern
version of Jason and his Argonauts
in their quest for the Golden Fleece Of
the 1926 National League champion
ship.
Trials that beset the mythical expe-
dition of the Argo confronted the Gin
cinnati crew as it approached a cru
cial series with the Boston Braves.
Like the simplegades of the Jason
story-foating rocks which continual
ly crashed together in the sea and
ground to powder all objects caught
between thenl-so the Braves stood
forth as an obstacle to overcome in the
journey to pennant hopes.
Cincinnati is due to ride the gauntlet
starting tomorrow in Boston faced
with the non-cheering fact that the
troublesome Braves left their imprint
on the league leading Cardinals and
shattered the bunting prospects of the
once contending Chicago club.
The Braves headed the performances
of the past week in the National with
five victories out of six engagements,
while Cincinnati won six and lost two,
and st. Louis won five and. lost two.
The Cardinals were the heaviest run
scorers of all clubs, with 65. and top
ped the hitting with 100 safe blows.
Cleveland's desperate attempt to
overtake the Yankees in the American
scramble was marked by six triumphs
and single defeat, which was the best
average for the circuit. The White
sox came out on top in five of six
trays.
The Hugmen found themselves
swamped by the Indians overflow, ex-
periencing one of their worst periods
of the season with but lone victory
in seven games, which lodged them at
the bottom of all the teams in the
weeks statistical standing.
Connie Mack's Athletics were en-
gagged in the defense of third place
against the Senators in the battle for
division of the worlds series spoils.
Only game and a half separated the
clubs. The weeks major league record
of games won and lost, runs, hits err
rors, opponents runs and homers, in

were sold was withheld, Richard
stating that its identity would be

Whether other radio stations will
be allowed to report the fight in the

dio station to which all rights Of

eide, Richard said.
Asked why he did not announce
the name of the firm that had bought
up the privileges, Richard said that
it was the desire Of the purchaser TO
keep the matter quiet until Monday
afternoon. Rickard said the concern
had one Of the most powerful radio
stations in the country but refused
to confirm or deny If its location was
in New York.
Just what price was paid for the
privilege was not disclosed, Rickard
leaving it to the buyer to make pub
lie the amount if it was SO desired.
