One of the primary areas of research in the field of dual strings is the search for new models. This is obviously an important subject to pursue if one believes that a string model should describe the hadrons, especially as the existing ones possess some unrealistic features. It has also been a frustrating pursuit as each new trick that was tried failed to bear fruit. Quite recently the first fundamentally new development in nearly five years was reported [1]. The model that results [2] is not more realistic than the previous ones, but it does help to focus attention on possibilities that were overlooked in the earlier attempts. In this letter we systematically examine a large class of infinite algebras of the type suggested by the work of refs.[1] and [2]. Our attitude is that even though there may not be a dual model associated with infinite algebra of the type to be considered, every dual model should possess a characteristic infinite gauge algebra. Of course, our results need not be the last word on the subject since we cannot exclude the possibility that there is a dual string model whose gauge algebra is not of the type considered here, although our assumptions do include all the known examples.
