There will be a showdown under Market Street today. The busy "Dell crowd," a group of 50 to 60 Philadelphia Stock Exchange traders who buy and sell options in Dell Computer Corp. stock, will be competing for the first time with groups of traders in Chicago and New York. The Philadelphia exchange's future is at stake. If PhilEx traders keep most of the Dell volume, the exchange will gain momentum in its recent campaign to draw new customers. The loss of too many trades could push the exchange, which has long served as a regional business incubator and a wealth-making machine for its 505 members and thousands of dependent jobs, to merge or sell its operations.

   The bidding war over a company most of us had never heard of produced a statistic that caught my attention last week.     3Par Inc. is a Fremont, Calif., company that's involved in the white-hot business of cloud computing. Since reaching a deal to be acquired by Dell Inc. for $18 on Aug. 15, 3Par has become the object of Hewlett-Packard Co.'s desire.    There are lots of ways to describe what an acquisition is worth. Often, it's in terms of total dollar amount.

SO, a member of the Union League, whose motto is "Love of Country Leads," decided that our secretary of defense is an evil murderer of our soldiers and is ashamed that he was to be honored. Well, if he felt that way, he should resign. Rumsfeld isn't evil, and never killed anyone, the terrorists and their supporters did. He has served his country honorably, for more than one president, and is a good man who deserves that gold medal.

NEW YORK — A big final-hour comeback pulled the Dow Jones industrial average nearly back to where it started Wednesday. The Dow was down as much as 191 points earlier as the threat of a financial crisis spreading from Europe shook markets. The euro dropped to a nearly two-year low against the dollar, and oil prices sank to their lowest this year. A late surge of buying erased nearly all of the Dow's deficit, leaving it down just 6.66 points at 12,496.15 by the end of the day. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 2.23 points to 1,318.86.

Robin Hood Dell appears headed for a name change, but not until 2015. Philadelphia City Council's Parks and Recreation Committee on Monday approved a proposal to rename the concert venue the Georgie Woods Entertainment Center, in honor of the civil rights advocate and radio DJ who brought acts such as Michael Jackson to Philadelphia. The legislation still requires a vote from the full Council, and the new moniker would not go into place for three more years because of a policy requiring that people be dead at least 10 years before a facility can be named for them.

CITY COUNCILMAN Curtis Jones Jr. plans to submit a bill to a Council committee today proposing that Robin Hood Dell East be renamed the Georgie Woods Entertainment Center. Woods, an iconic Philadelphia disc jockey, entertainer and civil-rights activist, died in 2005 at the age of 78. The bill will be presented to Council's committee on parks and recreation, cosponsored by Council President Darrell Clarke, Cindy Bass, Kenyatta Johnson, Marian Tasco and Jannie Blackwell. "Georgie Woods was a progressive, forward-thinking entertainer who engaged the community on the issues," Jones said, "and it would be an honor to have the grand theater named after him. " Woods spun mostly R&B records at WHAT and WDAS radio from the early '50s, introducing Philadelphians to many famous singers and musical groups, including Sam Cooke, Jerry Butler, the Righteous Brothers, the Osmond Brothers the Beatles and numerous others.
