The noon Dow Jones average of 30 industrials was off 2.76 at 906.91. The Dow had been off more than 11 points in carly trading and pushed through the 900 level, a psychological barrier that brought some bargain hunters back in. The Dow had dropped more than 46 points in the four prior sessions. Declining issues on the New York Stock Exchange outpaced gainer's 3 to 1. "The crux of the whole matter is a distinct lack of confidence," said Alan R.

Shaw of Harris Upham Co. 'SILVER STATUS SYMBOL RACINE, Wis. (AP) In 17th-century England you always knew where you stood even when you were sitting down. The Goddard James Thornton, consultant on silver care to the royal palace of Great Britain, points out that the salt cellar was the social barometer of the table. If you sat below it you were a nonentity: if you were seated between it and the head of the table your status was secure and undoubtedly your credit rating as well.

Nowadays collecting old salts, especially silver ones, can be a costly hobby. Eightcenth-century examples go from $1,500 to $4,000 a pair.

QUOKKAS GET MUSCLE DISEASE CINCINNATI, Ohio (AP) Five Rottnest quokkas have been flown from Australia to live at the University of Cincinnati with a colony nervous goats, nibble vitamin tablets and help scientists learn about muscular dystrophy. Quokkas, little kangaroos with short, hairless tails, abound in Australia. But a particular variety is found only on Rottnest Island, 10 miles off the west coast of Australia. What is special about the Rottnest quokkas is that they develop myotonia, a rare muscle-weakening defect much like muscle diseases in humans. The quokkas will join a colony of myotonic goats at the university.

The "nervous" goats develop a muscle fiber defect that causes them to topple over when they try to move suddenly. Dr. S.H. Bryant, professor of pharmacology, says he does not know just how myotonia affects the quokkas, although it is known that dystrophy wastes their muscles. "They become weak and paralyzed, and without vitamin they would die," Bryant says.
