It was part of an effort to snuff a stubborn refin- ery fire that had killed six firemen. A Gulf spokesperson said the blaze caused damage that may exceed $10 million. By last night, 36 hours after it started, mast of the fire was extinguish- ed but one crude oil storage tank was still ablaze. THE BODIES of six firemen, missing since the flash explo- sian late Sunday afternoon, were recovered yesterday. Five more firemen remained hospitalized yesterday, four of them in critical condition. Five others were injured but releas- ed following treatment. The Penrose Avenue Bridge, the main artery between Phila- delphia and its international airport, was closed to all traf- naptha valve, spewing between 500 and 600 gallons of volatile liquid toward the flames every minute, came at noon yester- day, several hours after the fire was officially declared un- der control at dawn. Officials said Harry "Butch" Koff, a man' of about 25 who has been on Gulf's firefighting department for six years, volun-x teered to try to close the valve. He and another man went out in the boat as firemen played water on them and on the tank to lower temperatures estimat- ed as high as 700 degrees. WITH THE naptha leak snuf- fed, only one large storage tank of crude oil was left burning. That, firemen said, might be allowed to burn itself out if other methods did not work. Rizzo said the fire depart- ment alone lost about $1 million in equipment, including four fire trucks. (Continued from Page 3) the businessmen aren't used to hearing a woman talk." "THEY (t h e businessmen) can't quite take me seriously- but then it's such great fun sit- ting around a board room. The men always look so ridiculously uncomfortable, they don't know what to say around me." Avery, the first female to head the children's hospital, is also a major department chief in the Harvard medical school and re- ceived a honorary doctor of science degree from the Uni- versity Sunday, as keynote com- mencement speaker. She spoke yesterday at an informal tea held in her honor by the international Women's Year Committee, Michigan Wo- men in Science and Medical Center Commission for Women. UU u n equipment anu renovation areas." Rhodes made it clear yester- day that belt tightening in equipment and renovation areas would clearly not be enough to close the gap. "THOSE ARE just the easy areas," he said. "We'll have to have some savings of funds." He added that his office would be conferring in the next couple of weeks with all departments within the University to see wvhere further cuts can be made. Formal proposals will be made to the Regents at their September meeting. At least two members of the Board have expressed reserva- tions about the University going to a deficit spending plan. Regent Thomas Roach (D- Grosse Pointe) said he won- dered if the University, as a state institution, could legally "I DON'T KNOW if it is even feasible to operate on a deficit budget," said Roach. A highly knowledgable source in the office of state Attorney General Frank Kelley, who de- clined to be identified, agreed that it would be unwise, if not necessarily illegal, for the Uni- versity to operate at a deficit. "You can argue that no one can really operate at a deficit unless they have the power to print money," he said. "The term 'deficit' is so meaning- less anyway, it's usually used for public relations value. "It depends how they set it up," he explained. "It could or it could not be (illegal)." Rhodes, asked if the Univer- sity's officers had considered the constitutional question of deficit spending said, "No, we haven't. But you make me nervous." - r ..missing out on some of the tt: s4.. rjY o +.e"!' ?: i .jif ,'r DAILIES because '5. ,. o delivery m istakesr OR disagree with a bill 9l. - we sent you for THE DAILY?

FEA sees 3-cent gasoline price hike (Continued from Page 1) force everyone to conserve fuel, "not just the poor." IN WASHINGTON, Zausner said the price increases would prompt Americans to conserve some 700,000 barrels of oil daily by the end of t977, compared with what they would otherwise use. With other energy measures added, the nation's oil consump- tion by the end of 1977 could be held about 1.5 million barrels per day below forecast levels. Zauzner admitted that the ad- ministration no longer expected to make its original deadline of cutting demand by some two million barrels per day by the end of 1977, although that goal would be reached later. CONGRESS HAS voted to ex- tend oil price controls beyond the Aug. 31 expiration date, but President Ford said he would veto the extension and Zausner said the administration thinks the veto would be sustained in Congress. Presidential energy advisors predicted that the price increase would be "roughly three cents" shortly after Ford announced his intention Friday to veto the bill to extend price controls. Energy Administrator Frank Zarb and economic advisor Alan Greenspan said the increase would not come quickly, but would be a gradual rise over a period of one to nine months. STEVE'S LUNCH 1313 SO.
