HARRY MORRIS, SUCCESSFUL 0P-
orator Of ARKANSAS FIELD TO
COMPLETE FIELDS WELL NO. ;

Ell Dorado, Ark, Dec. l5.-Announce'
ment was made here today to the et-
feet that the Harry Morris Explora.
ton Syndicate had started operations
in the widely known Arcadia district
of Louisiana which has been selected by
some Of the greatest geologists in
America as the scene Of the next great
oil field OF the southwest.
The announcement was made by
Harry Morris, whose name the syn
dicate bears.
Mr.. Morris state that the syndl-
cate is following the advice OF }. y
Snyder, one OF the most successful
BIOLOGISTS in the Mid-Continent fields,
in taking over the Arcadia acreage and
starting operations there.
Although he did not divulge The
names of the others interested in the
Harry Morris Exploration Syndicate
Nj. Morris stated that they composed
some Of the largest operators and pro-
ducers in the southwest. This coterie
Of experience and talent is headed BY
Mr.. Morris, whose spectacular rise II
the oil world has been perhaps with
out a parallel. Mr.. Morris is today
one OF the largest Independent oil
producers in this entire section.
1t is understood that this is a closet
syndicate and that none Of its securi
ties are being offered for sale.
Mr.. Morris stated that the syndi
cate planned to drill ten wildcat we'll
in North Louisiana and South Arkan
sas, where. according to the concensu
Of opinion OF the finest geological
brains in the world, untold millions o
barrels OF oil are waiting for the to-
OF the drill.
This is reported one Of the most ex
tensive wildcatting campaigns eve
launched in this part Of the Mid-Con
tinent. In wildcatting on such a larg
scale the syndicate will take full ad
vantage Of the law Of averages an
one winning should recompense them
hundred times over even if the 9th,
wells come in dry.-From The Q

The above report has been veri6.
by local men interested in the Fell
well. This territory has attracted gre
interest since the beginning Of pro
pecting in the Arcadia territory.
