Oil firms hike gasoline prices across major cities
Eight big oil companies raised wholesale gasoline by six tenths or seven tenths of a cent with many dealers planning to pass the rise to drivers at one to three cents a gallon. An AP survey across six cities shows dealers ready to follow the increase, though some, like those in Kansas City, may dodge it amid a price war driving regular gas down to 20.9 cents. Texaco first announced a six tenths of a cent rise. Humble and Shell did not announce changes.

Birth Of A Borough Corry Born On Heels Of Boner
Corry became a borough on August 18, 1869 amid initial confusion. Burgess S A Bennett first drafted an oath wrongly, scratched it out, and a fresh notice of election produced a council and burgess lineup led by Bennett Eugene Wright J Rawson F Parkman James Lewis O B Vincent with E W R Baker as high constable. The oath was attested by Judge Philander Root, and the infant borough began its early years, with the ancient ordinance book now a priceless sole record of those days.
