Frank "Bo" Cuisinier, who played
varsity football for Georgetown
University in 1925, is closing his
career as a three-sport man at the
University of Wisconsin with the
1929 baseball team. Cuisinier was

varsity diver for two years. besides
playing with the diamond squad.
He is the left fielder on the base

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, November 26.-Today's
bond market was irregular under heavy
trading. Buyers were confining their
activities to few selected issues, but
none of these moved widely. Gains
were in the majority In the high grade
domestic list, and losses were more
general In the speculative section.
The heaviest trading was in foreign
dollar bonds and here the movements
ranged from fractions to 4 points, in
both directions. Opinion seems to be
that the upturn in these bonds has
reached peak for the moment. Those
who bought at the low prices Of two,
weeks ago have INDUCED in consid-
cradle amount of profit taking, a great
deal OF which has been absorbed by
foreign buying.
Brazilian issues, after their spetac-
ular decline. were off again today. The
615s dropped points and IS ia points.
Issues of Sac Paulo State were weak.
although there was news that the state
had negotiated a $4,000 900 loan in
London and New York. Other bonds
OF the coffee states were of slightly.
Other South American obligations,
however, showed improvement. Rio de
Janeiro 6l2s, for instance, were up 4
points and Chilean and Argentinian
credits were also higher. European de-
Scriptions were quiet.
Convertible domestic bonds were
quiet and at unchanged prices. The
only exception to this were Public Serv-
ice Of New Jersey 4las, down S p points.
Colon IS were up points after their
wide decline of yesterday. Other oil
company issues were strong. In the
miscellaneous list, Hudson Coal IS were
IL points higher.
Junior issues of the railroads were
nearly all lower, but the losses were
only fractional, except in the case of
Seaboard All-Florida "a" IS, down AZ
points.
