DULLNESS HITS
CURB ISSUES

NEW YORK, June 13 0.N.S0. u.
The curb market hardly moved
out of it's tracks through the
greater part of today's dull and
Istless session, and price changes
of inconsequential proportions
were prevalent throughout the
rank and file of active issues.
In the utility group, such active
leaders as Electric Bond and
Share, and American Gas and
Electric were apparently securely
anchored a fraction away from
previous closing levels. Many Of
the more volatile issues failed to
put in an appearance at all indi-
eating the rather wide differences
on the bid and ask side.
In the Cities Service list, frac-
tional losses were the rule.
Standard of Indiana was the
only oil share to put in an ap-
pearance in the first half of the
day. Specialties were irregular,
with Cord Corporation again
most active in the low-priced
classification, reflecting the fur
ther antics of Auburn Auto on
the big board. In the more vola-
tile division, Great Atlantic and
Pacific preferred rose 2 points.
Curb bonds were more or less
irregular in tone, with the active
utility obligations inclined to sell
off fractionally.

WOMEN FL|ERS
SNUB MOTHER
EARTH

CURTISS FIELD, N. Y, Aug.
% G.N.SO.-When a woman goes
up in the air there's no telling
what will happen. Just 189 hours
ago at IL a. m. Mrs. Louise M.
Thaden and Mrs. Frances M.
Marsalis took off in an attempt
to beat the endurance mark Of
123 hours set by Bobby Trout
and Edna May Cooper.
No one gave them much Of a
chance to make it, but last Fri
day at 6 p. m. they were still in
the air, which gave them the
women's endurance record. Casey
Jones, manager of their flight,
smiled happily when they passed
the old mark, and told observers:
They'll be down now. They
just wanted to stay up long
enough to break that record"
They didn't come down. They
called for more gas, more ham
and eggs, and more cosmetics
and stayed in the 'air. They
dropped a note to Casey Jones,
saying they were tired but would
try to stay up until Monday.
Jones said yesterday:
They'll be down tomorrow.
They certainly have done a
fine job"
But came the dawn. And came
another note for Casey Jones:
"Send us 70 gallons of gas,
some oil, and breakfast"
The note indicated to Casey
that the two sky dwellers had
decided to stay up another day
if possible. The gas, the oil, the
breakfast and the morning papers
were carried aloft.
Eight days now the two women
have been living in their rent
free penthouse among the clouds.
Already they are approaching the
half way mark toward the mems
endurance record set by the
Hunter brothers three years ago.
Their record of 421 hours looks
safe, but none expected these two
girls to remain aloft as long as
this.
The women have reached the
stage where they can sleep sound
ly in their off shifts.
The mechanics can tell by the
sound of a motor whether it is
tired or not. They can tell
whether spark plugs need clean
ing and whether carbon has
found a resting place in the
cylinders. But this motor doesn't
seem tired.
Neither do the two women.
