BRIGHT PROSPECTS, ,
OF WORLD OH CO
s.sS

Mr.. j. A. Dickey, Vice Presiden,
and General Manager of the World
Oil and Development Company, with
home Office at Yerington, Nevada, has
returned from recent inspecting and
investigating trip over the company
holdings which are situated in Okla.
homa, Texas. Kansas. Louisiana and
Missouri. He reports that the com,
pany have recently secured the SER
vices of Mr. Hugh H. Tucker, geolo-
gist. who spotted the first oil we'll in
Breckenridge, in 1909, and then
prophesied great oil productions for
that section. MIR. Dickey's. company
have secured by lease so acres about
three miles southwest of Breckenridge
City, i'll the best proven part of the
great field, upon which they plan to
start drilling operations, not later
than April 18th,
Mr.. Dickey further reports the oil
industry generally, is, at present, go
ing through process OF re-adjust-
ment. particularly as to prices charg-
ed for drilling His company were
negotiating with drilling firms at
Breckenridge about a motnh ago
when they wanted sos 900 90 for drill
ing well on contract Later. Just
before he left, they offered to do the
work for $4,000. and he expects that
they will make even better price
than that as Spring advances. He
naturally feels pleased that they did
not tic up on drilling conract here
tofore, as they would have probably
brought in their well just in TING to
catch the lower price of oil, which i:
now quoted at $1.75 per barrel at
Breckenridge.
In his opinion this re-adjustmcrt
period will ultimately work out
bcnericially to the Oil industry by
eliminating exaggerated boom condi-
tons heretofore obtaining, and substi-
tuting therefor business conditions,
which will make for permanency.

COLLEGE TEAMS
GET IN ACTION
Stiehm's Crimson and Rockne's
Irish Show Strong Squads
in Victories.
WABASH STARTS WELL

The 1921 Hoosier college football lid
vas pried of Saturday in great fashion
when four Indiana eleyens went into ac-
ton and three of them turned in VIC
tories.
Jumbo stiehm's big Crimson erseyed
athletes showed to even the most skep-
teal that they may come up to wild
predictions Of l. I. hackers when they
smothered Franklin under AZ to o
score on Jordan field. The machine that
Stiehm trotted out on the field Saturday
showed real promise, and ION to Har-
vard' has become a joyful war whoop
on the Indiana campus, as the time for
the international contest two weeks dis
tant approaches.
With a nucleus of veterans left over
from last years squad, the Crimson men
tor sent them in Saturday just long
enough to convince himself that they
have lost none Of their old prOwess and
then tried out MS new men. The show
ing Of heretofore untried material was
even more pleasing TO Stiehm than that
of the veterans wilkins was given his
initial trial at quarter Saturday and his
performance was big factor in the
Crimson victory. Franklin played a good
brand of ball that may get them far In
the secondary college race, but they were
hopelessly oUtclassed by the big Grim
son machine The score Saturday was
exactly the same as the Franklin Indt-
ana score year ago.

crosses the path Of the Irish during the
coming season when they buried kala-
