Gas Company Improves Service Daily capacity of the "Biggest Inch" pipeline which brings natural gas from West Texas fields to Southern California consumers was increased 150,000,000 cubic feet yesterday when three new compressors went into operation at the Blythe Compressor Station. Seventy-three miles of 30-inch looped pipeline along the 215-mile stretch from the Colorado River to Los Angeles were added last fall to take care of the increased capacity. Addition of the three compressors—each rated at 1760 horsepower—steps up daily capacity of the Texas-California pipeline to 705,000,000 cubic feet. The 150,000,000 cubic feet total daily delivery when first made operative in November, 1947, officials of the two companies pointed out. Investment in the new compressors and an auxiliary gas engine driven generator was more than $1,500,000. This makes the two Southland gas companies' investment in the Blythe plant more than $6,500,000 and in their part of the Texas-California line system more than $42,000,000. It was announced. Capacity of the line was stepped up, company spokesmen said, because of continually increasing demands for natural gas by Southland residential and industrial users. Last year alone 100,255 new customers were reported by the two Southern California utility companies. MARTHA SCROGGIN PLANS MARRIAGE AUGUST 15 Miss Marta Scroggin, daughter S. S.
