COLLEGIAN SLAY SHELL SEEKS 2500-ACRE OIL LEASE Already Has 2500 Acres of Bixby Ranch and 100 of Bryant With some 2500 acres of the Bixby ranch and 100 acres of the Bryant ranch between Los Alamitos and Seal Beach already under lease, the Shell Oil Co. is now trying to lease part or all of the Hellman ranch of 2500 acres extending toward Westminster, it Loeb's Parents Can-Not Attend Trial CHICAGO, July 24.—The physical condition of both Mr. and Mrs. Albert H. Loeb, parents of Richard Loeb, is such that neither will be permitted to come here to help their boy in his greatest hour of need, despite their pleadings to do so. This was announced today by Allen Loeb, who, boy he is, has assumed the responsibility here as head of the stricken family. Young Loeb had just talked with his parents and their physicians over long distance telephone before making the announcement. Jack H. Loeb, Dickle's uncle, former president of the Chicago Board of Education, reiterated Allen's announcement, saying that doctors had told him it would be fatal for the defendant's father, millionaire vice president of Sears Roebuck & Co., to attend the trial. REALTORS IN COURT OVER COMMISSION Fullerton Brokers Su Yorba Linda Rancher to Collect $1250 The Joel Root Realty Co., Fullerton, was still in pursuit day of a $1250 realty commission that was once within its grasp slipped through. Final of firm's suit for that sum, broug against J. J. Carter, Yorba Linda rancher, was in progress today Already Has 2500 Acres of Bixby Ranch and 100 of Bryant With some 2500 acres of the Bixby ranch and 100 acres of the Bryant ranch between Los Alamitos and Seal Beach already under lease, the Shell Oil Co. is now trying to lease part or all of the Hellman ranch of 2500 acres extending toward Westminster, it was learned on excellent authority today. This effort of the big concern, combined with asserted showings of gas in the Westminster well being drilled privately by capitalists of Whittier and Hollywood, and with facts already known regarding structure, has convinced Los Alamitos land owners that the long sought fold runs roughly thru Westminster, Cypress or a point between Cypress and Los Alamitos. Bellflower, Inglewood, etc. The Shell will certainly drill next at a point nearer Cypress, it is declared. A Long Beach newspaper very recently announced that Bryant Well No. 1 had not come in, as announced. A prominent Los Alamitos land owner, however, declared today that he had himself seen it flowing and that a sump hole had been partly filled with the overflow. Before salt water came, the oil was of 20 gravity. The flow amounted to 350 barrels per day. Those unfriendly to the Shell Co. accuse it of keeping the well in check and denying that oil has been found in order to avoid an alleged bonus of $260 per acre on 2500 acres which it agreed to pay if a commercial well, defined as one flowing at least 75 barrels per day, came in. Such payment would total more than $600,000 and would make the well a liability instead of an asset. Overtures of the Shell Co. to the Hellman interests continue and have gone so far, it is said, as to include an offer of a checkerboard plan, whereby alternate quarter sections would go to the owners. The well brought in was drilled on a cross cutting plan in order to locate the fold. The well is three miles from Los Alamitos, whereas the second well now being drilled is around three and three-quarters miles distant. ENGINE CAUSE OF BAD FOREST FIRE SAN FRANCISCO, July 24.
