BLACK & DRAKE 1 DOING 7500 BBLS. WITH OIL OPERATORS The General Petroleum, the Shell Company and Ed Harwick furnished the spectacular features of the week for the Long Beach field. The General Petroleum's Black & Drake No. 1 fulfilled expectations by coming in a 7500 barrel well. The production of the big well has settled down to 6000 barrels and great well blades fair to become one of the great long productions. The field and will soon repay the company for the damage it inflicted No. 1 did a year ago. The General Petroleum has just completed another big producer that is of considerable interest. On the Jones property No. 5 drilled to 4979 started off 7500 barrels, 29 gravity. The General Petroleum producers just brought in demonstrates further the great productivity of the deep sands of the Long Beach field. It seems now that the development work at Signal Hill is just getting underway and the field has its greatest future in the still undeveloped deep sands. Ed Herwick staged a come back for his No. 7 when he redrilled and the well returned to production of a 700 barrel well. The redrilling carried the well to 4501 when bottom water was recountered. Herwick 7 stands for fearless wildcatting and pushing out beyond the lines of present production. At the time Herwick No. 7 was located a year ago the rig was a mile northwest of any producing wells. The Shell Company of California is finding the Dobyns lease to be one of the choice oil properties of the Long Beach field. Dobyns 4 recently completed at 5017 feet is a 3850 barrel well, producing oil that tests very close to 30 gravity. The oil string carried almost 1500 feet of screen casing, the strength of the oil bearing sands being so great. Long Beach like other fields of Southern California has to carry a few dry holes. The list so far is small, but one more was added when the Superior Oil Company abandoned its line No. 1 at 5180 feet. A production test showed no oil and some salt water. The test well was redrilled by the Keck Drilling Company and was satisfactory. Long Distance Line Two Audiences The present year promises to be one of the most notable in the development of electrical communication, judging from the number and character of the events that have already marked the first quarter. Scarcely had the civilized world recovered from its amassment at the marvel of sustained speech by radio across the Atlantic in January, when it awoke on the morning of February 15, just one month later, to read of the changed in accordance with a correspondent ity. Meltions were scientific papers discussed, resolved and, in every way conducted as though been physically to One agency only in the two groups in and that bond—wil Long Beach like other fields of Southern California has to carry a few dry holes. The list so far is small, but one more was added when the Superior Oil Company abandoned its line No. 1 at 5480 feet. A production test showed no oil and some salt water. The test well was drilled by the Keck Drilling Company and was satisfactory. The United Oil Company finally succeeded in getting Hass No. 4 on regular production. Completed at 4159 several weeks ago the well has been lathered seriously with sands. Continuous balling has cleaned the hole and the well is now making 2360 barrels. The PanAmerican Petroleum Company is rushing development work along at Long Beach and has set a surface casing in its first well. The Pan-American has six wells started on the Union Pacific's right of way property. The Pan-American seemingly is starting in where a lot of the other companies are leaving off, that is starting new wells drilling against the shitting down of drilling and production. Doheny is regarded as the wizard of the oil world and his work will be watched with great interest. SILENCER "So that's your new overcoat, eh! It's it rather loud?"

Motions were made and seconded, scientific papers were presented and discussed, resolutions were adopted and, in every way, the meeting was conducted as though the audience had been physically together. One agency only was lacking to bring the two groups in still closer unison and that bond—visibility—looms up as the proceedings were broadcast from WEAP, the broadcasting station of The American Telephone and Telegraph Company. A small sensitive transmitter on the speaker's table and a group of small horns suspended above from which the amplified voices were emitted, constituted the only visible apparatus in both the New York and Chicago auditoriums. Loud speaker amplifiers have made this night possible.

Best of all, the story is an intelligent one with the sort of suspense that keeps you guessing the outcome of the strange, though natural, circumstances that involve the characters. There are thrills, lore and examples of daring horrors and maneuvers such as will delight those who see too little of these nowadays. The hero of the picture is one of these rangers who is sent by his commander to round up and bring in the last three of a gang of train bandits and all around bad men. He has nothing to guide him in his searches beyond a meagre description of the men and the fact that they were last seen somewhere in the north of the cattle country. The ranger is really a sort of open country detective, with less to work on than the usual sleuth. How he works and what he encounters in his task go to make a picture that will be remembered long after the last scene fades out. Cubans prefer American neckties, those from Italy being the only outside competitors.
