Krypton reading at Three Mile Island observation point rises
A monitor at a tourist observation center near Three Mile Island detected the highest krypton level since venting began seven days earlier. EPA spokeswoman Geneva Douglas says the rise is due to a easterly wind blowing gas toward the center, but stays within safe limits as venting continues the plant containment cleanup after the March 28 1979 accident.

FTC to test cigarettes for carbon monoxide in new lab
A $50 000 machine will puff cigarettes in a Federal Trade Commission laboratory starting Monday to measure carbon monoxide content along with tar and nicotine in about 180 brands. Harold Pillsbury, director of the tobacco research lab, says the device will smoke 100 cigarettes per brand and compute averages. The carbon monoxide risk is cited as a possible factor in heart disease per the 1979 Surgeon General report.
