the ecologists and the price
structure. Not included in this
formula is a fifth possibility given
credence by a few local operators
credence by certain observers of
the situation and by Mobil station
manager Jesse Phillips among the
local operators some
connection with the Middle East
situation and the Arab nations'
supply of oil.
Though local independents as
yet are the least affected by the
rationing, it is believed by many
of Shelton's service station
operators that the rationing will
squeeze the independents out of
existence- Some relish this
prospect The independents'
ability to acquire fuel from a gas
company more cheaply than that
company's own operators is an
old bone of contention in the
Turfgrass event
is scheduled '
The annual Turfgrass Field
Day at the Western Washington
Research and Extension Center
will be held for the public May 23
according to Dr. Roy Goss,
Washington State University
Extension turfgrass specialist.
Experiments in progress for
the past 13 years will be viewed
by guests. The effect of mowing
heights, fertilizer rates, work
schedules and other practices on
lawn turf, putting green turf
management and bluegrass studies
will be seen.
Discussions will be conducted
on turfgrass weed and disease
control, and other management
practices that will be of interest
to both the home owners and
professional turf managers.
Persons attending may bring
turf or weed specimens for
identification.
First events begin at 10 a.m.
at the main research and
extension center two miles west
of Puyallup on Pioneer Avenue
and will conclude at 3 p.m. at
Farm 5 where most of the grass
research area is located. This farm
is east of the center about five
miles and just off the
Sumner-Orting Highway.
Discussions will be conducted
by Drs. Goss, C.J. Gould, Stanton
Brauen and other scientists from
the center.

industry. One manager hopes that
a demise of the independents
would cause the old-time service
station to flouish again,
eliminating today's free use of
services and facilities by
customers who do their buying
elsewhere.
If higher prices come about as
a result of the rationing,
arguments exist to justify the
hike. Both Bill Jackson of J&J
ARCO and Ken Wolden of
Wolden's Standard station point
out that the increase in the price
of gas, not counting gas taxes, has
been far less than the increase for
other commodities - gas having
risen less than ten cents per gallon
since the depression, while bread,
for instance, has gone from five to
sometimes 50 cents a loaf, or a
ten-fold increase.
What about the impact of gas
rationing on the general driving
public? If, as it was expressed in
Hearst's column, today's energy
crisis is only a foretaste of things
to come, if those "things to
come" include a "tremendous
reversal in attitudes and behavior
that.., this nation will be forced
to undergo," then the effect of
the gas rationing on the
Shelton-area public so far has
been minimal.
While all the local operators
said that customers are aware of
the rationing - that is, they ask
about it when they stop in - little
if any change in driving habits are
taking place, in the opinion of the
operators. One of the reasons why
Banner and Burnett intend to
shorten their hours is at their
Chevron station is to "educate the
public that something serious is
going on."
Many operators feel, however,
that nothing short of a complete
system of individual rationing
would change the public's driving
habits (which is not to say that
they necessarily favor such a
program). Even if gas
up to 70 cents per
Leo Nault, operator
station, "They'll cry
but they'll still drive."
So, for the
Shelton's service station!
and those involved
petroleum products
general sit tight. They
to see how long the
gas rationing situatiol
find out whether thei~
quotas change, to
developments and to
complex po
implications related to
rationing.
