Washington reports that gasoline supplies should be adequate this summer with Bicentennial travel. FEA Administrator Frank G. Zarb urged motorists to obey speed limits and avoid waste. The national average price is about 57.4 cents a gallon with a possible two cent rise. The agency plans to end price controls on gasoline and other fuels, but can reimpose them if needed.

Using a particle accelerator, the team found ultra heavy elements in mica rock samples found by Oak Ridge’s Dr. Gentry. X ray imagery bolsters confidence, though peer review awaits.

California moves to grant right to death with living will law
California Assembly approves a bill allowing doctors to remove life support from dying patients with advance authorization. The measure, tied to the Karen Ann Quinlan case, would create a state first right to death law if the Senate and governor sign off. A living will must be renewed every five years and could authorize stopping treatment to delay death.
