ADVISORY/Decline in Gasoline Prices

    --Nov. 18, 1998--


    TOPIC: The price of gasoline is at a 6 1/2 year low, according to a recent AAA report. The national average for self-serve regular unleaded gasoline is down to $1.055 per gallon this November, the lowest price since March 1992, when the average price was $1.049 per gallon. The price decrease is attributed to a worldwide abundance in fuel supply.
