Investor owned electric utilities once faced soaring inflation and rising fuel costs, prompting rate hike campaigns. By 1975, regulators approved about 2.2 billion in rate increases, easing funding strain. Analysts credit stronger sales, lower interest rates, and conservation, with earnings up 13 to 15 percent in Q1 1975.

Air Force Academy graduate seeks exit from service
Lt. Donald A. Peppers, top of his Air Force Academy class three years ago, wants out and will go to court if needed. On leave in Colorado, he became a licensed notary public hoping federal law banning civil offices from military personnel will force his discharge. He criticizes the service for demanding moral decisions without real-world learning and cites self-discipline he observed in civilian students.
