What About Oil?
(Continued from Page 1)
not kicking about it, but do you think an oil well will be noticed in all that??? The drill site, right now, isn't the prettiest spot in our fair city. A landscaped well might be an improvement. However, I want to know if drilling will contribute to the traffic and fumes?
A—Here's what the oil men say: There will be no fumes from a well except when the well is completing or is being pulled for cleanout. There will be trucking of equipment and pipe to the well site from time to time during daylight hours—and it can be done from Orange-thorpe ave. If oil is obtained there will be out-bound trucking of the oil until such time as a pipeline connection is arranged.
Q—In your paper you mentioned "Anaheim 1951 and Huntington Beach about 1921." In 80 years have there been any developments in oil drilling techniques which might be helpful in keeping drilling under control?
A—Oil engineers tell us that whipstocking or directional drilling is a vast improvement over the straight-down drilling. From one small “island” many wells can be drilled into the sub-surface. A well can be drilled from a point six feet in diameter to within a sub-surface radius of one-half mile or more. In other words, from the small island, the well can reach out in any direction for half a mile to bring in the oil. The pump site can be landscaped and practically hidden from sight.
Q—Will all the wells in a leased area be drilled from one or two sites?
A—The petroleum company says: Yes, and they will be BOTTOMED in the subsurfaces of the leased land at a great distance from the surface pump.
Q—What safety factors will the drilling company take for the protection of the public?
A—the oil people answer: There will be a fence erected around the drill site and if production is obtained there will be planting of shrubs around the fence to hide the working area.

McCracken

the date of Patty Hull's death. She said she went to McCracken's cabin about 7:15 p.m. to find him but there was no answer to her knock or when she called him. The curtain over the door window was not drawn but she did not look in, she said. According to McCracken's own testimony at the first trial, Patty's body was inside the cabin at that time.
Lee Stradley, owner of the White Elephant cafe, at Buena Park, who loaned his car to McCracken for about 15 minutes on the evening of May 19th and did not get her car back until several hours later, yesterday testified of reprimanding McCracken for keeping his car out for so long.
McCracken had used the car to haul Patty's body from his cabin to the grave in Live Oak Canyon. He had asked the loan of the car for a few minutes. Stradley said, in order to get his guitar which was at a relative's home a few blocks away.
Stradley said that McCracken was nervous and jumpy when he borrowed the car and Stradley said he regretted lending it to McCracken as he watched him drive away. He said he had a feeling that something was wrong.
Other prosecution testimony yesterday included that of State Ranger Joe Scherman of Orange and his assistant Ranger Neil Parker, of the Trabuco station, who testified to following faint tracks in the leaves from the road to Patty's lonely grave. Charlie Martinez, who lives in Trabuco Canyon, testified to seeing a car parked beside the road as he went home through Live Oak canyon at 11:45 p.m. May 19. He reported the incident to the Ranger and its velocity measured to 150 miles an hour.

Lightning Touches Off New Northern California Blazes
(By The Associated Press)
Seventy five uncontrolled fires raced across Northern California range and timberland today amid reports more lightning-set blazes can be expected.
Electricity storms bombarded the powder-dry state for the fifth straight day Wednesday, touching off five new fires in Mendocino National Forest alone. Temperature or no rain fell from nearby storm clouds.

About 1,600 men are battling against the National Forest in state tested and private lumber pany areas.
Counting Wednesday's new five-day toll of store blazes reached $34, state and eral officials reported. Except the 75 unchecked fires, all of are extinguished or under fire, however.
