NO BIG ONES IN TORRANCE FIELD By Ellwood J. Munger From the standpoint of guider wells and big production the Torrance-Redondo-Lomita field has proven a disappointment. The field opened a few months ago with 1200 and 1500 barrel wells. It is now producing 250 and 350 barrel wells and a close check of the field reveals the fact that the field has only one well doing more than 1000 barrels, the big well being the Sentinel Oil Company's Joughin No. 1 a producer that is running close to 1100 barrels. The total daily output of the Torrance field runs around 22,000 barrels and there seems little hope of increasing this figure unless some operator goes down and finds a deep sand. Three wild cat wells claim the attention of the oil fraternity at Torrance now and upon their success much of the future development of the Torrance field depends. On the northeast side of the field the Rosenburg well has reached a depth of 3750 feet and to date has had no shownigs to get excited over. On the extreme north edge of the field the Petroleum Midway's Lewis well has passed the 4500 foot mark and has nothing to show. The Superior Oil Company's Torrance 13 is getting down to where it should show something encouraging if it is going to make a well, drilling has passed the 4100 mark and nothing ceiling has been passed. Aside from the east boundary line of the field it appears that the productive area of the Torrance-Redondo field field has been pretty well fixed. New production this past week at Torrance included a 250 barrel well drilled by the Duruth Oil & Investment Company, 300 barrel well completed by the Grunwell Oil Corporation, a 200 barrel well by Ballen-Kinsey-Jennings, a 400 New production this past week at Torrance included a 250 barrel well drilled by the Doruth Oil & Investment Company, 300 barrel well completed by the Grunwell Oil Corporation, a 200 barrel well by Ballen-Kinsey-Jeennings, a 400 barrel well by the James F. Nugent Oil Company and a 585 barrel well that came in barefooted on the Fortuna Oil Co., Clark lease. Long Beach continues to be the wonder oil field of Sou. Calif., and it seems to be no fear at all to bring in a 4000 and 5000 barrel well. Jack Doyle astonished the operators of the east side of the Hill with a 4000 barrel well at 5000 feet. The Doyle well is producing 30 gravity oil the highest the Hill field has yet produced. The Shell Co., of Cal. drilled its Alamitok No. 2 to 3200 feet and got a 2500 bbl well producing 28 gravity oil. The east slope of Signal Hill is looking up with these big wells coming in and it appears that part of the field that was neglected two years ago is coming into its own and much of the future production of the Long Beach district will come from that section of the field. The daily output of the Long Beach field is holding steadily at 231,000 barrels. SAM SEELIG CO. "Cash is King" CALIFORNIA'S LEADING GROCER New Anaheim Market Store No. 2, W. Center and Helena Sts.

The members of the Placeenta Round Table club, with their husbands and families, enjoyed a very unusual and entertaining program on Tuesday evening in celebration of their twenty-second anniverasary. The program was very appropriately started off with community singing of "Auld Lang Syne" and other familiar meidies. This was followed by two delightful numbers by the Wallace-Cook trio. A most beautiful and stately minuet was then danced by eight young ladies, daughters of the members. Miss Katherine Bradford gave two solo readings. The music setion then sang a group of songs. The ladies were in colonial costume and presented a very charming appearance as they sat grouped together on the steps with the colored spotlights failing softly on powdered wigs and rich costumes. The next number was a series of tableaux, with appropriate songs sung behind the scenes by Mrs. Estella Walker, Miss Ruth Howerton and C. P. Smith. These tableaux were as follows: 1—Grandmother at the spinning wheel, with Mrs. H. F. Dierker as grandmother. 2—Grandfather, with Mr. Robertson of Fullerton in character and singing his own songs. 3—"Mother" was portrayed by Miss Florence Schofield rocking the cradle and singing lullabies. 4—"Father" was Mrs. Charmicle trotting "his" little girl (Miss Geraldine Edwardson) on "his" foot to the nursery rhymes, "Ride-a-Cock Horse" and "HeyDiddle-Diddle." 5—Miss Mary Helen Murdiex (in costume), with a big collidog, gave a reading. 6—Little Miss Murdick, in bedtime costume. 7—"School Days" with Mrs. Fred Cline, "teacher," and Maxine Bender and Eunice Marie Smith as pupils. 8—"Play Days" with the bare-foot boy going fishing (Maxine Bender) and his little playmate (Eunice Marie Smith). 9—"Her First Beau" with Mrs. W.

Pierotti); (b) "I (Mrs. J. Chna. Thamer) Was Seeing Nellie (Mrs. Wickett) Home." 11—"The Bride"—Miss Nina McLellen with Miss Geraldine Edwardson as "Cupid." The "last but not least" number on the program was another enjoyable selection by the Wallace-Cook trio. This delightful program was due to the untiring efforts of the participants, supervised by Mrs. J. W. Travers and Mrs. Estella Walker. Delicious refreshments of birthday cake and Valentine ice cream were served the guests by the hostesses, the officers of the club. Four rows of orange trees are being taken out of the Fuller ranch for the streets and curbs that are to be put in by the subdividers, Fourman and Askin. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon for Harry Eagan, who had been quite ill for several months and passed away Saturday evening. The deceased is survived by a wife.

ORANGES SIZE UP LAST 3 WEEKS Fruit has sized up almost as much in the last three weeks in many groves as it had in all the season previous, declare fruit experts. Though the rain three weeks ago was limited, it did local valencias vast good, followed by warmer weather. Fruit men say fair prices may be expected for valencias. The navel market is off largely because of the many cold waves that have swept the east this winter. One local company has had to keep cars in roundhouses for as many as 15 days on several occasions because of danger from freezing. Of course decay set in because of the delay.
