You can hear the jumps on the 70mm audio bootleg too.

Here's my memory of them (from my recording), as each reel was about 20 mins: 

 

End of reel 1:  Luke bringing C-3PO and R2-D2 inside after sale; reel 2 begins with Threepio's oil bath.

 

End of reel 2: Tarken tells meeting "We will then crush the rebellion with one swift stroke"; reel 3 begins with the discovery of the dead Jawas.

 

Reel 3 ends after Luke's training session ("You've just taken your first step into a larger world"); reel 4 begins with Tarkin being informed that a rebel base was found deserted.

 

Reel 4 ends and reel 5 begins during the trash compacter sequence.

 

Reel 5 ends and reel 6 begins inside the rebel hanger ("All pilots to their stations") prior to the Death Star attack.
