CURB STOCK LIST
'D|SPLAYSSTRENGTH
Bull Pools and Professional
Interests Prove Ready to
Support Favorites.

Dispatch to The Star

NEW YORK, October 5.--The most
significant incident about the rally
which set in on the Curb Exchange
today. following yesterdays late sell
ing movement, was the fact that il
disclosed the underlying strength or
the main body of stocks.
The manner in which numerous
speculative features rallied left the
impression that pools and professional
interests working for higher prices
were ready and willing to support
their favorites. This was the more
noteworthy in view of the enormous
increase reported in brokers' loans
after the close yesterday and the
hardening tendency Of call funds used
for speculative purposes
BaEcitaly shares, which have the
support of strong banking interests,
opened at lis. gain of points.
They broke sharply between sales
later. but subsequently rallied close
to the high for the day. Shares
of chain store and mercha ndising com
panies were prominent in the recoV-
cry, notably Dominion Stores, which
gained points to 80, a new high rec
ord. w. r. Grant common was car
ried more than points higher follow
ing publication of the sales figures
for September, which disclosed a gain
of $507,271, or 1880 per cent, over
September, 1926. For the nine months
ended September 80 the net percent
age of increase over the correspond
ing period the previous year was
POSE.
The new Piggy Wiggiy Corporation
common shares were admitted TO trad
ing and opened at 293s. Later the
price dropped to 2Si2 on fair volume
of transactions.
The sharp recovery in Electric Re
frigeration per cent bonds proved
that Tuesdays heavy selling repre-
sented nothing more than a profes.
sional attempt to depress the issue
still further. Boston 4 Maine SIS
series AZ went into new high ground
at 97l4. This compared with the low
of 932s established when trading
started in the issue.
Public utilities, which had been
more or less prominent in the recent
rise. were subjected to heavy profit
taking for a time. but started forward
again in the afternoon. Gains and
losses. however, were inconsequential.
The pressure against Imperial Oil of
Canada was lifted at least tempo
rarily and the price gained fraction
ally. other oils moved indecisively.

Beginning of New Dances.
From the New York Times

Most people have been content with
the theory that modern dances. such
as the Charleston and the Black Bot.
tom. had their origin in the caperings
OF negroes on Mississippi levees in
warm Southern towns. Some of the
erudite in folk dancing have even
traced the jazz steps to primitive Afri-
can ceremOnials. But science has
gone one better. A speake~ before the
British Association for the Advance
ment Of Science says that I'VE owe
our appreciation of dancing, poetry,
music and our sense of rhythm to the
actions we made when we were only
tiny blobs of jelly fiagellates millions
of years ago."
TO those who have watched the
writings and palpitations of some of
the modern dances the plausibility of
the Jsllyfish origin is at once apparent
Yet to one unversed in science the
explanation that these steps and
rhythms are Il direct heritage from
our anc" tors, the Banderlog, would
he quite as convincing.
AS for the skeptical who do not care
to accept either the jellytish or ape
hypothesis, at least they will not find
1t safe TO laugh at the theory. For
laughing only furnishes additional
proof of their kinship with the lower
animals An American psychologist
assures us that man has no monopoly
on laughter. Aside from the hyena
COWS and horses and monkeys laugh
and "the most obvious laughter in the
animal kindom is that of the frog"

Medical Standards.
From the New York Times.

-
CounteractiOns, such as the physi-
clan is always meeting in the human
body, have not failed to mark the
notable rise in standards of medical
education in this country during the
last 30 years. The medical school
graduate today is much better trained
than he used to be, but there are
fewer of him. not only relatively to
the population but in actual numbers.
This decline may be expected to con.
tinue for another Is or 20
years, according to an opinion ex-
pressed before the National Clinical
Congress in session at Yale. AS an
unwelcome offset the number of ir-
regular practitioners is three times
what it was Is years ago. Kicked
out of the door of the high-grade
medical school, they climb in by the
window Of the mature" and "cosmic"
therapies. OF well qualified physi
clans there are not only fewer. but
nearly half of them now so in for
specialization, thus further depicting
the supply of general practitioners
available, In particular. for the rural
districts.
