billion sale of off-shore oil dri-

to a number of major oil com-
panies was declared null and
void today by a federal judge
U S District Court Judge
Jack B Weinstein, sitting in
Brooklyn, acted on the grounds
that Thomas Kleppe, former
secretary of the interior, had
violated the National Environ-
mental Policy Act in allowing
the sale of the drilling rights
The ruling was revealed in a
, 122-page decision which follow-
ed lengthy hearings
The oil companies bought the
rights to drill for oil and natural
gas in the so-called Baltimore
Canyon, which extends along
the continental shelf from Long

ANIKS (Merck 21-Aprit it)
There s a possibility you could
ba a bit flirtatous today but be
caretul Clandestine activities
could brew a heap oi reper-
cussions
TAURUS (Apri 20-May 20) Sen
sitive triends require the kid
grove treatment today Falure to
recognize this could result in
some strained relationships
GEMINI (Mey 21-June 20) Loo*
ing for a short cut to the stars is a
foolish approach for you today
Only honest effort heips you
scale the lofty heights
CANCER (June 21 July 22)
Inability to stick to yOur original
plans could cause some
problems today last minute
changes tend to work against
you
LEO (July 23-Aug 22) Someone
you know rather well will see*
your help Do what you can but
don’t be drawn into their com-
plicated finances
VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept. 22) The
type of person you associate
with today has a very definite in-
fluence on your outlook Seek
out positive thinkers
LIBRA (Sept. 23 Oct. 23) If you
let your duties go until the last
minute today you’ll be in a real
bind in your rush to catch up
you'll only fall farther behind
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
You re not too good at disguising
your true feelings today Try
biting your tongue a few times
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23-Dec.
21) Conditions at home are apt
to be unstable today The way
you re likely to react could cause
an even higher reading on the
Richter scale
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-J an 19)
In conversations with others,
you’re likely to rattle skeletons
There s nothing to be gamed so
try a fresh approach
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
Think of your purse as a con-
tainer today rather than a sieve
Plug up the leaks Don’t punch
new holes in it
PISCES (Feb 20-March 20)
Attempting to be all things to all
people is more fallacious than
usual today Be true to your own
principles and the rest will be
easy
