Today arks the official beginning of the end. An Environmental Protection Agen- (EPA) regulation prohibiting bulk anufacturers from selling orocarbon gases for most aerosol dducts went into effect at midnight. ldorocarbon gases are the propellants ost often used in spray cans. ON DEC. 15, the manufacture of any spray-can products will be pro- bited by the government. And on pril 15, 1979, it will become illegal to ip them in interstate commerce. The National Academy of Science has * ncluded that fluorocarbon gases ould "seriously damage the earth's [One layer. This layer shields the ear- i's atmosphere from the ultraviolet ni° rays that the academy has said can 'ise human skin cancer and harm nimals and plants. Thus, the academy's findings doomed he aerosol era. Not all spray-can products will be afined. Other gases, mechanical pum- s and substitute products are being ed to replace the familiarfluorocar- ii-powered spray-can containing such PA-declared "non-essential prod- ~lcts" as deodorants, hair sprays, house 61Ud cleaners and pesticides.

THE FESTIVAL, which is sponsored by the University's International SUBSCRIBE TO THE DAILY-Call 764-0558 Students Clubs, and the International Center, is much larger than previous fairs. "We have enlarged and extended the fair in order to more fully ap- preciate one another's cultures," said Ema, who is an African Graduate student at Michigan. Several groups, including the Michigan Student Assembly, the LSA Student Government, and the Univer- sity Activities Center have helped the International Students with their plan- ning and preparations. "If these groups had not responded and cooperated with us, the festival would not have been financially possible," Ema said. "We are trying to foster this same type of cooperation at the world level through the week of festivities."~ More information on the festival can be obtained from the International Cen- ter at 764-9310.
