NEW YORK < Al* • Air fares are
going up — and down — as the
airlines encounter renewed fur
bulence at the ticket counter
Industry giant United Airlines an
nounccd fare increases Thursday on
its *prawlmg system, catching its
competitors by surprise one day
after struggling Braniff announced
it was cutting its prices
American Airlines and Delta Air
Lines decided to match the cuts by
Braniff. which said its success
depends on it slashing lares and
becoming a cut-rate airline
Then, on Thursday United opted
to raise many of its fares
‘ We ll match them.' responded
American spokesman Al Becker
This time. Delta was less anxious
to up tin* ante "Good luck to them.'
said spokesman Jim Ewing, ex
pressing puzzlement at the wisdom
of raising fares as tlie industry
heads into its lean fall and winter
season
Prison fire report due today
Ewing said the United plan, affec
ting hundreds of cities in all 48 con
tiguous states, was far too involved
lor Delta to respond to w ithout con
siderable analysis
As competition widens, the con-
cept of a single "fare'' between any
two points lias all but disappeared
Some airline computer systems
track hundreds of carriers
worldwide* and now follow as many
as H2u,txm schedules in 115.non travel
markets.

Questions about a Labor Day fire at
the Oklahoma State Penitentiary
may lie resolved by a fire marshal’s
report and polygraph tests, correc-
tions officials say
Gov. George Nigh asked the
Oklahoma State Bureau of In
vestigation to give the polygraph
tests John Reid. Nigh's press
secretary. said Thursday he did not
know who would Ik- given the test
inmates, guards or both
"1 presume it will Ik* an assort-
ment of people." Reid said "This is
really not unusual."
Fred Rucker, assistant state fire
marshal, said the report by fire in
vestigator Bob Lindstrom of Poteau
was expected in his office today
He said copies of the report would
go to the Department of Corrections
and McAlester FT re Chief F'red
Sanders
Sanders on the night of the fire
said he believed tht blaze was
deliberately set. hut the prison
warden has disagreed
The lire destroyed the Trusty 3
Building
Rucker said the 25-minute delay in
relaying the fire alarm to the
McAlester Fire Department may
have caused the* blaze to get out of
hand quickly
Prison Warden John Brow n blam-
ed the delay on the fact that the*
phonos at the trusty building were
not functioning and that radios in the
gun towers did not work properly
"Then again they had trouble with
getting the proper amount of water
on the fire when they got there.
Rucker said
