The satellite. shaped like an

37.l pounds, is equipped with
two geiger counters and two
Scintillatlon instruments to
measure the intensity and en-
ergy Of the rays.
Apparently the rays are SO

they have come close to jam

TuuWithBears

NEW YORK. Sept. IL (AP) /.
The stock market milled near
its 1856 bull market crest early
this afternoon with prices
slightly higher on average.
Gains Of fractions to a point
or so among key stocks were
intermingled with many small
losers.
The exchange floor was vir-
tually tug Of war between bulls,
who believe the market will
crash through to a record high,
and bears. who feel prices are
high enough and that now is
the time to take profits.
Under a wave Of heavy deal
ings at the start, the ticker tape
was late for five minutes with
prices higher. Then turnover
fell of as prices softened. Later
in the morning another move
to the upside got under way in
active trading.
The market seemed, to be ig-
noring latest economic news
such as the raising Of the dis
count rate by more Federal
Reserve Banks, the boosting Of
the prime rate for business
loans and an increase in the
interest rate for brokers' loans.
Industrials in various Sec
tons inched ahead with an oc-
casional solid gamer. scattered
losers and numerous stocks un-
changed.
The Associated Press 60-stock
average was below its all-time
closing high of $19l.50 but the
Dow-JoneS industrial average al
noon moved to 521.31, which
exceeded its record closing high
of 52l .05. Before some previous
market closes this average has
upon occasion surpassed the
record closing high since this
was made in April. 1856. but
1t has never since then topped
it by the end of a session.
Steels were heavily traded
Such issues as United States
Steel. Bethlehem and Republic
Steel showed a slightly lower
tendency. Lukens and Youngs-
town Sheet gained fractions.
Union Carbide jumped more
than Q and du Pont well over
a point. Such pivotal stocks as
Goodyear and American Tele-
phone were about a point lower
American Cyanamid, New
York Central. Pfizer, Scherine
and Boeing were up about q
point each. Schering's an
nouncement of a new drug
helped its group.
Corporate and United States
Government bond markets were
mixed in quiet trading.
