Leaded gas cut bid fails in Senate panel
California lawmakers rejected Assemblyman Peter Schabarum's plan to cut lead in gasoline to 0.5 grams per gallon by 1976. Four Democrats on the Senate Transportation Committee supported the bill after months of study, while oil industry spokesmen warned of more smog and engine damage. Opponents cited existing state and federal rules. Schabarum vowed to revise and refile next year as supporters noted a ballot proposition by the People's Lobby.

Reagan holds flat on professor pay raise veto
Sacramento reports say President Reagan refused to reconsider his veto of cost of living pay raises for professors and offered no promise of raises next year. Art Bierman of United Professors of California said Reagan declined to retract his own $5,000 raise, offering no hope for future increases. Bierman criticized the veto as part of broader budget belt tightening, noting state colleges lose staff to other institutions due to the stalled raises. Reagan cited constitutional limits on undoing a $49,100 salary boost from $44,100 granted in 1968.
