| The following free stock quote system still works - you just need the ticker
symbol. If you already know how this system works, selecting 9500 gets you
the quotes without first listening to the help information suggested below.

Stock quotes may be obtained by calling the Worcester Telegram &
Gazette's Citiline number 508-792-9400. When the computer answers the
phone, you'll be asked to enter a number depending on the type of
information you want (they have a lot more than just financial
information). To get information on how to obtain stock quotes, enter
the digits 9501 (using a touch-tone phone, of course!). You can obtain
quotes from NY, AMEX, and OTC; they're updated about every half-hour.
Other types of information available on Citinet include: DOW JONES
averages, commodities reports, weather, humor, soap-opera info, etc.
Of course, you have to put up with some ads, but they're not too bad.

| 27.2 | *Free* Wall Street Stock Quote Service | DECEAT::SHAH | | Thu Feb 27 1992 17:19 | 13 |
| In the investing notes conference there was a mention of a tel. no.
where one can get quote information. The number was 508-792-9400
ext.9500. The main number is some kind of general information service.
I used to use this, but lately (last few months) I didn't use it, and
now even though the number seems to be working fine, I have forgotten
how to use it once you punch 9500 ! It asks for the symbol, but when I
punch in the symbol, I dont get the quote ! All I get is "next symbol" !
Can someone help ?
Thanks,
/Alkesh

| 27.3 | End with "*" (continue at note 27.1). | LEDS::WILDING | Arthur, SHR 237-6353, Drive f/w eng. | Thu Feb 27 1992 19:42 | 6 |
| This number is announced in #27.1 and maybe this should continue there.
In any case, as the HELP explains, type the ticker symbol and then end
it with "*" <-important! Type each letter with 2 buttons - the button
containing the letter and then 1, 2, or 3 (e.g., MOT is 616381*).
