One of the most romantic chapters in Amer
lean petroleum history is now being written IN
Texas by the wdcatter-that modern knight
whose undaunted spirit seeks out the wild
places to drill for oil. Jasons search Tor the
golden fleece, the Spanish cavaliers pursuit OF
Peruvian gold the rush TO California of the
forty-niners fades to insignificance compared
to the wildcatters conquest of the earth 1or
liquid gold.
From Red River on the north to the Rio
Grande on the south, the wildcatter is at work
cleaving his way down into the dark receSses
of old Mother Earth that he might make her
disgorge her hidden secrets OF petroleum
wealth.
While the widcatter is as brave as any
knight of DID, he does not sally forth on gally
caparisoned steed, with shining lance and ar
NOR, but simply loads his steel drilling bit and
steel casing on big truck and hauls them out
to his location. The cable adjusted, he spuds
in and starts drilling with his steel bit;
drilling until he breaks through the lime
stone rock or the granite rock that obstlucts
his downward course. If by some accident the
hole is inarred, he grimy skds the derrick and
starts a new one. His month of hard work may
yield cluster" if fate DEGREES So he swal-
lows his disappointment and moves on to some
other field to try his luck again Sometimes the
elements conspire against him-the fields be-
come quagmires of mud, the water in the baer
freezes, the storms blow down his derrick, but
he soon repairs the damage and goes doggedly
back lat the work of drilling with his steel
bit-tdrilling through the adamantne rocks
that ages have put in his way. fighter as
we'll as dreamer is this wildcatter. lnsuper-
able difficulties seem not to dsmay him. He
has the optimism of Don QuiXote and the
courage of Richard Couer de Lion.
