Economic indicators show housing slowdown and price rollbacks
The article reports a drop in housing activity with fewer new building permits and housing starts at an eight year low. The Federal Energy Administration secured price rollbacks totaling about 77 million from 15 oil companies and wiped 375 million in costs, potentially lowering consumer prices. Pan American pilots accept an 11 percent pay cut starting February 1, offsetting a 9 percent raise due January 1. Sugar prices in New York fall up to 20 percent, but retailers elsewhere may not follow due to higher initial prices.

Sextuplets Couple Battle For Surviving Child
In San Jose California a 31 year old father and her husband Alvin Lange watched as Jolene Rene first born of sextuplets shows signs of life at Valley Medical Center. The other five siblings died from hyaline membrane disease and post-natal complications with Jolene weighing just over two pounds and still on a respirator. Doctors say being born first and early lung maturity may aid her recovery though weight gain is expected to be slow. The infant is fed donor milk via a nasogastric tube and monitored as she stabilizes.
