Food prices will go up 12.2 percent next year, the Agriculture Department forecast last week, spurred by increases for meat, poultry and eggs. On the energy front, economists warn the relatively stable energy prices of recent months will not continue if the Iran-Iraqi war persists. Although neither country is a major exporter to America, the reduction in produc tion eventually will pinch U.S. allies and drive world prices up. According to a recent study by Evan Economics, a Washington forecasting firm, “The situation in the Mid dle East has deteriorated so rapidly that another major oil shock is possible within the next few months.” The outlook for the staggering housing industry worsened when interest rates started up again, meaning higher mortgage charges. After the Federal Reserve Board boosted the discount rate it charges banks, the banks hiked their rates. The prime rate — what they charge their best corporate customers — is flirting with 17 percent. The Commerce Department also reported that while new housing construction increased a moderate 1.6 per cent last month, building permits — an indication of future activity — slumped 14.8 percent. r Soviets pay for damages 1 lf |0 center/Across from A&M kaggs shopping CALL 846-6714 FOR CORRECT TIMESI OPEN 7:10 TIMES FOR TODAY ONLY!

United Press International LONDON — A London book maker will pay out $350,000 to gamblers who bet that Kristin shot the nefarious J.R. Ewing of televi sion’s “Dallas.” Many morning newspapers and radio stations carried detailed stories about the climactic episode of the wildly popular prime-time soap opera, aired by CBS in the United States Friday night, though British viewers will not see the program un til tonight. “We ll probably wait until Monday to pay up,” said a spokesman for Wil liam Hill Bookmakers. “We have to see it first. You never can tell, they may run a different program here. ” The spokesman said Hill took more than 200,000 bets on the identity of the gunman — gunwoman as it turned out. *★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★* * MANOR EAST 3 C MANOR EAST MALL I 823-8300 ■ I The Cow Hop “AN AGGIE TRADITION” " 8 T-BONE OZ.
