Shell on 52nd restricts purchases to five dollars and worries about ongoing shortages. Clerks blame government oil holdings and demand Alaska Pipeline action.

Patrolmen to Patrol 53rd Street to Curb Robberies
Foot patrolmen were urged to prevent rising robberies in the last 28 days. Eight officers were dispatched as special tactical forces to patrol the area. O Grady denied acting because of an unfiled petition but cited the need for more walking patrols to restore closer ties with citizens and reduce barriers caused by metal barriers.
