NEW YORK — A little buying of gold mining shares today imparted a flicker of life to the leepy stock market. About 800,000 shares were today's transactions. A drop of foreign currencies against the dollar, together with a hoarding demand for gold in Lon- don, seemed to keep Wall Street in a cautious mood.

Hrt finds girls are just as good at baton-twirling as| | boys. Attaining perfection, he says,| depends on an individual's agility —and plenty of practice. It's easier when they start young, he says; his last batch of pupils included an 11-year-old girl and a 10-year-old lad. Mildred Douglas, 19, of Evanston, Ill., who is the national girl baton twirling champion, took tips from him. She challenges anyone and says she is going after the men’s title, too. Booth believes in having his pupils dress the part, and they go through their drills in fancy drum major costumes. It improves their spirit, he says.
