BU United Press
NEW YORK, June 27.-The new
week In the stock market started
off today with price movements too
mixed to define a definite trend in
any individual group.
The feature of early trading was
the continuance of bull operations
against Colorado Fuel, which
opened at 80, up IL. Pivotal issues
such as Steel and General Motors
we're not in very heavy demand at
the start, the former not appearing
on the tape until more than ten
minutes after the opening gong. \
Steel gained Is on its opening quo
tation of 121, while General Motors
slipped off % to 1875. Later, how
ever, little support appeared for
motors and a slight recovery was
made to 1895.
List Uneven
Stocks started the new week in
irregular fashion, rejecting the be-
wilderment existing in the specu-
lative mind regarding the immedi-
ate course of prices.
Rails showed slightly better
tone, rejecting publication over
Sunday of favorable earning state
mentS.
Prices broke badly around noon
when selling swept over the entire
market. Steel common broke to new
low ground on the movement at 100,
off q, while General Motors dropped
81 to 1856; Baldwin 31a to 1854;
American Smelling 81 to 15l1a;
Hudson IA to 80, and Mack Truck
"a to 99a4.
~ Rumors Heard
Reports were widespread that the
brokerage loan statement due at
the close would set forth another in
crease. These rumors encouraged
bear forces to push selling opera
tions with great aggressiveness.
With spectators in nervous
state, large number Of stop loss
orders had been placed under the
market and when these were caught
the decline picked up volume sub
stantially.

the rival tongs into a truce after a
tong outbreak during which SO
Chinese died from gunmen's bullets.
When this truce ended the present

Edward T. McMurray, Mrs. Chaplin
uncle and chief counsel in her action
for divorce, declared yesterday. I'VE

that she has not been working for
Chaplin. If these facts are borne
out we will recommend to the re-
ccivers that this salary be stopped.
This money would go to the Chaplin
children, for whom Chaplin has made
no provision. instead of to some
actress in France.
Miss Purviance appeared in the
leading feminine role in "A Woman
Of Paris" produced by Chaplin in
1923. Since then she has continued
on the Chaplin payroll, it was said at
the studio. She is now in France
engaged in picture for a. French

fessed intimacy with several motion

Teacher Forced to
Take Vacation When
Class Moves Away

Omaha, Neb., Jan. 13.-R)-Miss
Libbie Lapour, teacher. Of the school
at Tarnov, a Polish village in Platte
county, is taking a vacation because
her class has moved away.
Miss Lapour, employed for nine
month term, opened school at Tarnov
last fall, and for four months taught
her sole pupil, Mary Vybiral, IL, in
the thrcc RS. Mary's father, Union
Pacific station agent at Tarnov, was
transferred, however, and the school
lost its pupil.
For three weeks the teacher opened
the building each day in hopes thai
some pupils would appear. Finally
the school board proposed that she re.
turn to Leigh. at a salary reduction
equivalent to the amount she, had to
pay for board. Now Miss Lapour
draws $50 month while staying at
home, pending the possible arrival in
Tarnov of some family with children
desiring public school education.
The residents Of Tarn0v are mostly
Catholic and maintain their own
school.
Miss Lapour says she misses her
duties in the little school of one pu-
pill, where the singing of "duet" by
the teacher and pupil opened class
each morning.

Plainly detected, and barely able to
summon a smile when reporters be-

from a western train, Chaplin finally
posed for a picture after he warded
off reporters with these words:
simply Terrible"

TO talk for you but this is not the
time and place and shall reserve my
statement for just that-the right
