FOR DEEP TEST WELL IN
THIS VICINITY.
FOR DEEP TEST WELL HERE
Location of Test Well To BE
Drilled By AnderSnO Co.
Not announced.

Dee Anderson of the Ander-
son Drilling Co., who will drill
a deep test we'll on their lease
holdings near Washington, has
returned here from the Okla
homa fields and is awaiting ar
rival of drilling equipment. He
was accompanied by Mr.. Leo
Yount, who is associated with
him in drilling operations, and
John Cleveland, head driller,
will arrive today.
The first drilling material to
reach here arrived Wednesday.
This consisted of two Is 1-2
inch bits weighing 2,200 pounds
each. The rig timbers were
shipped out of Texarkana on
Tuesday and should arrive this
week.
Owing to their inability to
secure a certain lease, on which
the company had decided to To-
cate their test well, it will be
necessary for them to change
their location. This, Mr.. An
derson says, will be done at
once, as material will be moved
TO the location as fast as it ar
rives.
Speculation in oil leases in
! this vicinity has started and
this will be further stimulated
when actual drilling is under
way.

MIR. PORTER WEAVER
 CONTRIBUTES RELICS
Old French Books Donated to Hen-
 dirk College.

The Hendrix library has just re- ceived an interesting gift from Porter Weaver, a former Hendrix student. During the war, when the unit to which MT. Weaver was attached, took over al. old French hospital at Con- mercy, it was found that the French had left quite an extensive library in their barracks. As the books were in the way it became necessary to dis pose of them and most of them were burned. However, Mir. Weaver man aged to save two of them, Le Magasin Pittoresque for 1842 and Le Monde IIlustre for 1862.
 These were two of the most noted journals of France at that time The last named contains picture of the naval battle at Memphis, June 6, 1862.
 Mir. Weaver has shown much inter- est in the college, always having been quick to collect and send back unusual His thoughtfulness is greatly appreciated by the college.- Hendrix Bull Dog.

INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE
 CONFERENCE IN LONDON

An international conference of del egates from important scientific acad- enries to consider the future of the International Catalogue of Scientific Litreature has just been held in Lon don at the invitation of the Royal So- ciety. Representatives were present from fourteen countries. The Ameri- can delegates were Dr. R. M. Yerkes, Professor L. E. Dickson, Professor l.. P. Eisenhart, MT. c. c. Gunnell, and Dr. S. l. Franz, representing the Ma tional Academy of Science, the Ma tional Research Council, and the Smithsonian Institution.
 Up to the time of the war, more than thirty countries were joined in undertaking the indexing and pub fishing the index of the scientific lit erature of the world. Fourteen an nual issues, each of seventeen vol umes, have been published covering the literature from 1901 to 1904. The results of the war together with the much increased cost of printing and publishing have interrupted the un- dertaking and no index of scientific literature published since 1914 has been issued The conference decided that even though a change may be made in the future in the method of indexing and of publishing the index as has often been suggested, it is i'm peratively necessary to continue the literature published up to the end of 1915 and possibly also that up to the present method until the scientific end of 1920 has been catalogued.

ALLEN OUT TO WIN
 ANOTHER TENANT

Little Rock, Nov. 12. - Having
 had pennant winner in the Southern
 League, President R. G. Allen and ! Manager Elberfeld are out to repeat
 in 1921. It will be of much interest
 to the people of the state who have | always been loyal champions of the Travellers to know that President AL
 len expects to entirely remake his
 team and that players who can be
 depended upon to give even better ser
 vice than the members of the 1920 team, are already in the fold. One player who has national reputation was traced through three different countries, United State, Canada and Mexico before being signed. This player was a free agent and when President Allen is at liberty to dis close his name will greatly please the Arkansas fans.
 It IS no secret that President Allen intends making over the infield and none of the 1920 outfielders are ey- pected to be back Wano, 1920 first baseman, will no doubt be sem to the outfleld and real class A first base man secured. Wano might yet make d tHstbaseman, but was ridden so hard by the other players as well as the tans last season, that it is hardly probable he will be asked to again serve in that position. McGinnis viii hardiy y return to play short; Little Mac IS only 21 years of age and should develop into big league material, but change of scenery in his case is necessary. Moore will be retained as third, but should Distel remain with the team, it will be as short stop, out fielder or utility player A half dozen short stops and second basemen have been signed for trial, but a veteran second oaseman can be expected. Out iieiders of proven ability are now be- ing negotiated for. Manager Eber- field wants fighters on his 1921 team instead of temperamental players.
 President Allen and Manager Elbet- 1eld are now attending the National Assoclatlon meeting at Kansas City and are expected to close negotiations there for several widely known play CTS, who should go good in the South ern Association
