All three put down their forks. A pall fell over what had until that instant been a pleasant lunch. Finally, my senior host-managed what was so sickly a grin that it was amusing and said: "Please, Sylvia, you're not going into that again? You know that no woman has ever applied for membership on the Exchange.

Why raise a fuss?" "I'm doing just the opposite of raising a fuss," I retorted.

Displacement of the gasoline en tion clearly was that because of my financial position and the many friends I have among NYSE members, I probably could make it. The implication also was that very few other women could.

How to Do It Okay, then. In yesterday's column I wrote that the backgound is emerging for some highly qualified woman to make an historic attempt to become the first full-fledged woman member of the NYSE. It could be one of you reading this report. Below, therefore, are details on what you must be and do. To begin with, here are the constitutional requirements, as summarized by Keith Fnnston, NYSE president: "A member of the New York Stock Exchange must be at least 21 years of age, a citizen of the United States, and be able to satisfy the Exchange's strict standards of professional competence and financial responsibility." Here are other major requirements 1 You must pass a Stock Exchange examination to demonstrate your knowledge of the business.

2 To be active on the NYSE floor, you must be Indoctrinated under the guidance of an experienced floor member for the period necessary to acquaint you with floor procedures. 3 You must be approved by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the NYSE governors present at a meeting of the board. 4 You must present letters of recommendation from at least three responsible persons. 6 You must be sponsored by two members or allied members of the Exchange who have known you sufficiently well and over a long enough time to endorse you without qualification from their personal knowledge of you and your business connections. 6 You must appear personally before the NYSE Committee on Admissions.

7 You must pay for your NYSE seat prior to election to the membership. A seat price is now around $220,000. 8 Unless otherwise permitted by the Exchange, you must be actively engaged in the securities business and devote the major part of your time to this business. None of the above, you notice, differentiates on sex. A woman with outstanding qualifications and a crusading spirit might really make a serious attempt to break the barrier.
