Ohio gas bill hike eyed by Metzenbaum and foes
Former Ohio senator Howard Metzenbaum forecast a $90 first year rise for a typical four person Ohio family, with higher costs to follow. He cited a Congressional study predicting national impact of $4.5 billion annually while consumer group Energy Action and dissenting FPC commissioner Don S. Smith challenge the decision as too high and poorly justified by production costs.

Rare Motoring Pedant Exults In Free Travel With Horses
Seney travels across the country on horseback to stay at motels with grass and water, meeting few people who dishearten him. He recalls a hospital stay after a fall near Valley Forge, aided by a kind policeman who cared for his horses. He owns Trooper, a one-year-old, and Tramp, an 11-year-old horse bought last year in Alabama. He spends about 150 dollars monthly, favors cheap meals, and doubts most people will embrace such a life despite interest.

Doctors overcharge Medicaid bills GAO report says
Federal investigators say about one third of doctors overcharge Medicare and Medicaid patients for lab tests by up to 400 percent. A draft GAO report notes many physicians bill as if tests were done in their offices but samples go to outside labs. Examples show marked markups beyond what independent labs charge. The probe covers 1972–74 in Washington DC area and four states. Senate subcommittee hearings address costs and other wide loopholes, plus profits by radiologists pathologists and anesthesiologists tied to hospital charges.
