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. (Continued tomorrow) Killer Hurricane Blowing Self Out In High Mountain TAMPICO (E)—The hurricane that raged over Texas was all week taking more than 100 lives and causing millions of dollars in damage; was blown off today in the mount of Mexico. The storm—described as worst recorded in Mexico—its final fury over the oil pool Tampico yesterday. At least person was killed here and damage was expected to ruin above $1,000,000.

LA—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.
