House Opens Academies To Women
Washington AP House approves a $31.2 billion defense bill opening military academies to women and sending the measure to the Senate for final action. The 348 to 60 vote authorizes production funds for the B1 bomber as a test program, and $7.7 million for binary nerve gas weapons with a national-need trigger. The compromise calls for admitting women to West Point Annapolis and the Air Force Academy next year while keeping single training systems.

Oil Decontrol Blockage Fails in Senate Vote
The Senate failed to block President Ford's plan to decontrol domestic oil prices as Democrats attached an amendment to a nutrition bill. The 50 to 44 vote defeated the resolution, with House action looming. Zarb said removing a 60-cent tariff on refined imports could save about 1.2 million dollars daily, while the plan sets old oil prices at 11.50 and rolls other crude to follow with a 5 cent monthly rise starting Oct. 1.
