The EPA ordered 111000 service stations nationwide to start selling at least one grade of unleaded gasoline by July 1, with further rural stations added after January 1. Stations over 200000 gallons yearly must have an unleaded pump, and counties below 50 people per square mile with past 150000 gallons must sell unleaded gas. FEO said gasoline will be more plentiful from June 1, but a 4 to 6 percent shortage remains without conservation.

The Last Detail film review by A R Shapiro

The Last Detail follows three Navy men on a road trip from Norfolk Virginia to Portsmouth New Hampshire. Badass and Mule are lifers with fifteen years service while Larry Meadows faces eight years and lifetimes of bleakness. Nicholson delivers as Budofsky and the film adopts a documentary style with stark realism and offbeat restraint. The cast conveys quiet ache and the reviewer calls it a respectable slightly offbeat film playing at Cinema I.
