Petroleum Pushers
Pure Pump Prices
Motorists on campus will find
driving a bit more economical
due to slashed prices on gasoline
in the Eugene area.
Weekend developments in the
two-week-old gas war brought
prices for regular gasoline down
to 22.9 cents per gallon and
ethyl to 25.8 cents per gallon,
lowest record for petrol prices
in 15 years.
Gasoline prices had ranged up
■ to 31.9 and 34.7 cents before the
; opening of two gasoline stations
which placed signs up announc
; ing lower- than - competition
i prices. Since that time nearly all
I the local stations have lowered
prices to meet the competition.
Harold Glaisyer, operator of a
service station on E. Broadway,
said that he had filled at least
ten 50-g^llon barrels since the
price cut and "all of the five
gallon cans in the country. I
: never knew there were so many
| five gallon cans.”
There is no indication as to
' when the “war” will be over or
how low' the prices will go, but
1 Ted Hearn, president of the local
gasoline dealers association, said
Saturday that “it looks as though
; the new price is spreading over
! the area.”
A similar “gas war" took place
| here last fall, but prices became
frozen when they reached the
29.8 low for regular gas.
