Spear Staff says it is now a clear "probability" that President Nixon will be reelected, and the stock market will advance to new all-time highs. Spear Staff says the market will not shoot upward, but will see a broad upsurge. The long road ahead to keep inflation down will help keep the market from going straight up, the firm concludes The Dines Letter says the market reminds it of "parasex- ual interspecific plant hybridization." By this it fneans the market is a combination of two different bull and a bear. Dines notes the normal sell-off in July did not develop, but neither did the traditional summer rally.

It concludes the market has a lot of underlying strength and may make a good move upward later this year. The stock market presents "the greatest 'mixed bag in many a year," Harris, Upham says in its market letter. It calls the market, "fickle and indecisive," and adds "psychological factors have dictated a good deal of the activity." Many of the higher-priced stocks are seeing a drop in their following, so the lower- priced cyclicals will have to perform for the Dow to keep moving higher. Harris, Upham concludes. Retail Store Sales Decline WASHINGTON (UPI) A Commerce Department report showed today sales in retail stores declined about 1 per cent last week from the previous week but were about 7 per cent ahead of a year earlier.

Nationwide retail sales were placed at billion for the week ending Aug. 26. The department said durable goods sales were up 11 per cent over a year ago, while nondurable goods sales were up 6 per cent. Prize Pumpkin Is Stolen LONG EATON, England stole Keith Roan's pumpkin Thursday. The 42-year-old bricklayer had nursed the 25-pound pumpkin for five months to enter it in the local horticultural club's competition.

Roan, who won last year's contest, said, "I can't believe another pumpkin grower would stoop so low. But I found a large footprint so it doesn't look as if children were to blame." Roan said he would enter his reserve pumpkin in the competion but it is a lot smaller and he did not think he had much chance of winning.

Air Compressors and Air Tools FOR RENT 236-240 CHESTNUT STREET DIAL 272-6308 BARRE GUILD Monuments Angry Tourists Rap U.S. Continued From Page One and many said they were broke and hungry. The travelers returning here were especially incensed by American Embassy warnings to "expect no help" and by what they interpreted as threats to call the Marine guard to evict them from the embassy. Vance Stephens, an art teacher at Jersey State College in Jersey City, N.J., said, "all we got from the embassy was a mimeographed sheet which said 'expect no The British welfare group gave each of us a couple of pounds ($5) which we intend to send back." A delegation of five passengers went to the embassy Monday to seek aid.

In the foyer they were approached by a London bobby, they said, who told them the embassy threatened to call out its Marine guard and have them evicted if they did not leave voluntarily. The passengers said there were some Marines there "making a presence" lending credence to the threat. Finally the passengers left. The embassy officials were quoted as saving there was no help available because they had no funds to meet such situations. The passengers said they suggested the use of military planes or that the embassy could advance them airfare using their passports as security.

None of the suggestions were accepted. Stuart Bruck, a teacher of New York City, summed it up this way: "It wasn't the money so much, it was that they just didn't care. It's amazing to me that the United States, one of the richest countries in the world, can't take care of its own people in a situation like this." The travelers, who had spent four days sleeping on benches or floors at Gatwick said hundreds of offers of food and lodging had been made to them by Englishmen living near the airport. Other British citizens brought soup and sandwiches to feed the hungry Americans. The tourists elected, however, to stay together at the airport.

A spokesman for the group said they planned to set up a fund to help any future air passengers who may become stranded at Gatwick. Barbara Clark, a New York school teacher, said telegrams for help had been sent to President Nixon and Sen. Jacob Javits, but no replies were received. Paul Lynn, 32, of Boston said he made a collect telephone call to Sen. Edward Kennedy, "because I was broke." Lynn said he was unable to contact Kennedy personally but did speak to a member of his staff who "showed concern." Band Entertains Senior Citizens The Sunshine Kitchen Band of the Rescue Fire Co.

nor many other ministers address God as Jehovah? Perhaps the Jehovah Witnesses are right when they called i "Jehovah." B.W. God is called by more than 15 names in the Old Testament, one of which is Jehovah. Some of the more familiar ones are: The Almighty, Genesis Father of Lights; the Holy One of Israel, Psalm The living God, Joshua and the Most High, Deteuronomy 32:8. Jesus did not call God Jehovah, but Father. We do not become children of Gocl by calling God by any particular name, but receiving Him by faith in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ.

Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6. The Apostle Paul said: "Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be AA 4:12. He was speaking ui me powerful name of our Savior and Lord. There have always been divisive sects which seem to delight in dissension. But the Apostle Paul raised the question: "Is Christ divided?" (Corinthians 1:13.) The answer is "no." Those who have been born into the family of God through faith in Him are of one mind and one heart.

They have love one for another, and for the world of lost people. Don't depend on a name. Put your trust in a person, and let that person be Christ, the Savior of the world. Jews Paying Diploma Tax TEL AVIV (UPD-Jews arriving from the Soviet Union today said dozens of their professional friends there were paying the Kremlin's newly imposed diploma tax in order to leave for Israel. "You can't blame them," said Frank Gordon of Riga.

"What otner choice do they have? There is pressure on them to pay or have their sons drafted into the army." Israeli officials have said the government does not intend to pay the tax, ranging as high as $24.000. but will try to pressure the Kremlin to drop it. Gordon and other Soviet Jews who arrived at Lod International Airport said their college educated friends who had paid the tax were now waiting to leave their homes for Vienna, from where they will fly to Israel. One of the arrivals, Tuvia Goldberg of Vilna, said he paid the Soviet authorities in tax in order to get a visa for his son, who completed two years in engineering school. "What can we do?" he asked.

"We couldn't leave our son in the Soviet Union." The Kremlin imposed the Lax almost three weeks ago. charging higher prices for those with more advanced degrees. Public Invited To Attend Special Service Saturday, Sept. 2 at P.M." Missionaries from South America Rev. and Mrs.

Scott Apostle Foith Fellowship 31 7 So. Sixth Lebanon, Pa. I. Ray Kline Chess Title To Fischer Continued From Page One cafeteria when the telephone call came. Cramer and the new champion's second, the Rev.

William Lombardy, told Fischer shortly aftor he awoke, ready to resume the game. Fischer asked Schmid to get a statement in writing from Spassky that he had resigned, Cramer said. Almost all of the international grandmasters attending the world chess championship predicted Fischer would win the 21st game today and with it the world title. Some said Spassky might not even make another move after making what they called an blunder" on the 30th move Thursday. However, U.S.

Grandmaster Larry Evans, who analyzed the game himself during the night, said Spassky just might have saved a draw if he chose the right move to seal. "The amazing thing is that if Spassky sealed the only correct move last night, he might get away with a draw," Evans said. "But I think he was too much in a hurry to analyze the situation." Asked what the move was, Evans only winked and smiled. When Fischer, 29, sat down at the board for the beginning of the 21st game Thursday he had 11.5 points, only one point away from the 12.5 necessary to win. Spassky has 8.5 points.

Five hours later Fischer rushed oft' the brightly lit stage with every grandmaster and expert predicting victory. An incredible 30th move blunder by Spassky had opened the 'floodgates. The Russian, looking gaunt and tired after two months of joy and agony, finally sealed his 41st move and walked slowly through the curtains. The last 45 minutes after the fateful move he had remained seated, running a hand through his toussled hair, watching Fischer leap in and out for glasses of juice. "it's all over." said Svetozar Gligoric of Yugoslavia.

"Why he (Spassky) touched that poisoned pawn I shall never know. Spassky's 30th move was a terrible mistake because it opened the way for Fischer's pawn on a line which otherwise was closed." Iceland's Kridrik Olafsson agreed. "It was the turning point after seven straight draws and it was doubly tragic tor Spassky because earlier in the game he had played his way out of trouble with a fine sacrifice. Perhaps the Russians can find a way of saving the game through all- night analyzing, but I doubt it. Fischer tyas taken on the Russian machine before singledhandedly and come out the winner.

1 Spassky's three seconds. Ey- fim Geller, Nikolai Krogius and Isaac Boleslavsky, waited for the champion in a beige Landrover, looking glum and dejected. Only Boleslavsky held out a glimmer of hope. "All is not lost although the situation is grave. But even if Spassky should lose it's no national tragedy.

Chess is sports, not war." The Rev. William Lombardy, Fischer's second, smiled and said, "I agree one hundred per cent, but it is nicer being on the winning side." Schmid was one who missed Spassky's blunder. The referee, who also is a chess grandmaster, had been summoned from the stage by Dr. Max Euwe, president of the International Chnss Krderation. Euwe had received a protest from one of Fischer's lawyers.

Airlines Note Anniversary SAN FRANCISCO (IIPD- The 45th anniversary of transcontinental passenger service is being celebrated today by the airline industry. The first passengers clutched a mail sack in one hand and a lunch bag in the other when a Boeing 40-A left San Francisco for New York Sept. 1, 1927, a flight that took 32 hours with 15 stops en route. Today, the same flight takes approximately four hours nonstop. During the first year of transcontinental service, a total of 168 parachute-carrying passengers were flown from San Francisco to New York for a one-way fare of The Daily Investor Renamed ft ByCMARLESJ.ELIA Q.

I have four stocks, including one I bought in 1969 which is now a bankrupt, company, so you can imagine I'm leary about making further investments in the market. My friends tell me I'm foolish, however, to keep $20,000 tied up. I have that money in two-to-five year bank certificates. They say I'm young enough (30) to take my chances. What do you think is best for me? Should'l hold on? I bought'the other three stocks in 1971.

A. Your friends have the right general theory but you've got the sad particulars, so not all as easy as it sometimes can be made to sound. A young man with money to spare should, logically, have some part of his money invested in equities because stocks give him one of the few avenues to long-term growth exceeding the economy's built- in propensity to erode the dollar's value. That's great, as far as it goes, but it has an important corollary the stocks that will do that job must be stocks that are going to go up. Since no one can pick all winners, the approach many have found workable is diversity a number of issues that spread the risk and give the owner a chance to make enough profits on some issues to more than offset losses on others.

In this particular case, you can be glad you haven't gone overboard. Your list of stocks indicates you need to do a lot more work on stock selection if you are going to make rewarding investments. I do think a young man with money he can place at risk should be looking for growth companies for investment, if he understands and is willing to accept the risks for a crack at the rewards. But within that approach you can be less than a go-for-broke speculator, too, by setting realistic objectives and seeking out companies that might meet them. One thing is sure.

You'll have to' do better in studying companies than you've done hi your first ventures into the market. If you can give your investing more time and effort, I'd suggest you limit yourself at first to restructuring the present holdings. Use the proceeds for any further experimenting you may want to do in the market- If you have no greater success with this approach, then I'd suggest you consider a mutual fund oriented toward growth, in whatever range of aggressiveness you can live with, and channel into it any further investment you may want to make with part of your income or savings. Q. I am 55, married, with two children'to get through school.

I have adequate life insurance, $4,000 in savings and a job now paying $23,000 but going up to $27,000 soon. My home's appraised at $44,000 and I have $9,000 against it. I'd like to retire at 65. My question is this: Should I get equity out of my house and invest in soir.ii good mutual fund as a hedg'i against inflation or just let it ride? A. I'd think twice about that.

Getting into some "good" mutual fund isn't as easy as you're assuming. To make the investment worth the 7Vz or eight per cent interest costs in remortgaging the family homestead, you'll need some hefty appreciation. Everyone who goes into equities likes to envision big profits, of course, but the fact is that seven or eight per cent market gains, year in. and year out, have proved very tough to assure. In other words, the element of risk involved may be disproportionate in your specific situation.

You may need the new mortgage to pay theschool bills. I'd call your attention also to your savings level. Your $4,000 might prove a minimal amount if some unexpected hitch developed in your earning power. It's hardly enough to permit very much risk-taking with your other assets, at the least. I'd resist the impulse, frankly.

Your home is an investment, too, you know, and you shouldn't write off the chance of appreciation there while eyeing the possibilities of the market.

TREASURY BALANCE WASHINGTON (UPI) -The U.S. Treasury balance Thursday was $5,998,525,296.49. (Mr. Elia will answer only representative questions of general interest in this column. He cannot answer phone queries.) "CLEVELAND Executives of the Baltimore Ohio-Chesapeake Ohio Railway went to a railroad yard Thursday to unveil a new short name for the transportation network.

At a signal from Hays T. Watkins, president and chief executive officer of the system, a team of women clambered over an immense diesel locomotive to strip away paper wrappings. What they revealed were the words "Chessie System," in letters four feet high oh the side of the locomotive. Inset in the initial letter was the outline of "Chessie," the sleeping cat, symbol of the meet transportation competition," Watkins said, and have been creating, through coordination and consolidation, a combined system. To emphasize that service, our freight traffic salesmen have urged that we adopt a short, popular name for everyday use." Watkins called the gathering a "happy railroad "It celebrates a railroad consolidation that has been proclaimed a success by official Washington." he said.

"The events here today relate to railroad progress, railroad efficiency and even railroad profitability. "As much as we all sympathize with the railroads in financial difficulty and as much as we all realize the serious basic problems the railroad industry faces," he added, "it should be pointed out that some railroads are solvent, do not have government loans, are paying bills, taxes and dividends and are concentrting on railroading." The number of the first locomotive to bear the Chessie name was 1977, commemorating the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Baltimore Ohio Railroad, first in the nation, which will be celebrated five years from now.
