To Meet Friday For
Rifle Club Plans

Plans are under way in Fallon to
organize a local rifle club to be afiil.
lated with the National Rifle Asso-
citation of America. A meeting will
be held Friday evening, March 23rd
at 7:30, in the chamber of commerce
rooms when the preliminary work
and applications for membership will
be taken up.
G. W. Likes, who is taking the
lead in promoting the local organic
alton, has received instructions and
bulletins from the national associa-
tion and from the War Department
explaining that the National Rifle
Association is backed by the United
States government for the purpose of
training civilians in the use of the
army rifle and to create a public sen
timent in respect to the necessity of
rifle practice as a menas of national
defense.
While it is expected that member
of the American Legion and Veter-
ans of Foreign Wars will be partic-
ularly interested in the rifle club it
is pointed out that membership is not
limited to ex-seryice men; any citizen
of the United States being eligible.
Thirty-seven citizens of Fallon and
vicinity have already indicated thei.
intention of joining the association
and there is no doubt that many
more will put in applications at the
Friday meeting
Under an order of the Secretary
of War the ordinance department Of
the United States army is authorized
to issue without cost two service
rifles with the necessary target
equipment and 120 rounds of amuni-
tion per member to each rifle club of
the national association. There will
also be issued two % calibre rifles
with ammunition for gallery target
practice 1t is further provided that
members may purchase from the gov
ernment at cost service rifles and
ammunition if they so desire.
All Fallonites who are interested
in rifle practice and the formation of
club are urged to attend the meet
ing Friday evening.

Banquet Spread
For Fallon Teams

Thursday evening at the Epworth
hall the two basketball teams to-
gether with the school faculty, the
local ministers and invited guests
paid honor to the victorious girls and
the near-yictor boys.
The occasion was prompted by the
chicken dinner arranged by the la
dies of the Methodist church, who
served some 200 hungry Fallonltes
with chicken and tripmings.
Professor j. J. Beatty acted as
toastmaster and certainly handled
the banquet as well as he did the
umpiring in the strenuous games
during the winter He first called
on Rev. Petersen. who in a short
and pointed talk extended a welcome
TO the teams and the people in the
gym He was followed by Professor
McCracken who gave clean talk on
athletics and the benefit mentally as
well as physically. His talk was in
structive to young and old.
Father Sears of the Catholic church
gave a short talk on playing the
Game According to Rule" and If
players in life follow his program II
surely will be fair game from start
to finish.
Rev. Landers of the Baptist church
had the subject of Good Winners, y
and aside from citing the benefits OF
winning on the square, gave lot of
short and peppy punches on follow
ing out rules to win by fair methods
Rector McGowan, of the Episcopal
church, had the topic of Good Los
ors." He reverted back to the days
at college and recited battles that
he had known, slgnifying that a good
loser was essential as a good win
ner. His idea was that a good loser
puts up the best battle in the end
and prepares young men to meet ad-
verslty In later life. but meet it pre-
pared to come back with a bigger
punch.
Miss Travis spoke for the girls
| team, and in a neat talk told of the
| loyalty that won the games and the
cup. She was followed by Miss Fuss
coach of the Fallon champions, and
her talk on next years team con-
vinced the people that the team is tc
bring home another cup from Reno
Sam Nelson of the boys team re-
viewed the team work and while the
boys did not get the cup they die
ut up a real game and were sports
men every one of them.
Noble Waite, the boys coach, re-
viewed the work and history of the
team and complimented the Method
list people on their excellent gym
which will aid In bringing out new
players and athletic material.
Professor Beatty made the final an
nouncements thanking the speakers
complimenting the two teams and
predicted even better scores by the
clean players of the Fallon teams
another year.

Miss Fuss Compares
Play, Weight and
Age Scale

Following the winning of the state
championship basketball cup by the
Fallon girls, the Reno Journal picks
an all-state team, In which the Fal-
Ion girls did not get all the positions
that they were entitled to. Miss Fuss
who handled the Fallon girls replied
to the article and set out the super
iority of the local girls team. quot

In one paragraph she states ::

once at the tournament. In conclu-
sion Miss Fuss quotes ages and
height of the Fallon team which are
of particular interest:
we invite a comparison of games
and scores of both teams, also COM
parison of age and size of the Reno
and Fallon girls. II surprises me that
you have selected three antiquated,
second-rate heayy-weights for your
all-state first team, and one antiquat-

Oil Field Items
For Past Week
Show Activity
Syndicate Casing Nears
Bottom Lahontan
Ready to Resume

While work has been continuous
during the week at the Syndicate
considerable difficulty has been en-
countered with the new casing, as
it has a tendency to hang up in the
larger casing and 1t was necessary
during the week to make a swedge
to straighten out a section of the
line.
Those who are in charge at the
plant believe that the difficulty has
been overcome and that 1t will be
possible to place the casing at the
3036 foot mark, which is the bottom
of the we'll. If this can be accom-
Pitched it is the intention to clean
out and determine what is developed
in the way of oil, II being known that
there is some oil at this depth, but
quantity is the unknown factor.
Many are watching this final test
through the small casing that is be-
ing used.
At the Lahontan the cement is
hardening and 1t is expected that
driller Mitchell will steam up the lat
operations. The removal of the
cement and the bridge he figures
will only take few days
The Lahontan expects to continue
drilling as plans have been mrde
with this in view. BY cementing eff
it is stated that they have the best
ten inch hole in the field and the
new casing to be lowered will take
them down to the oil sands 1t Is
the contention of those who have
been watching developments at the
Lahontan that the showing is all
that could be expected, in fact ex.
ceeds the anticipations of those who
have financed this drilling outfit

ed and the additional machinery Ia
assembled. This outfit has its cas-
ing on hand and should be in work
ing order inside of few days. Those
situation claim that a comparative
shallow we'll should determine the
worth of the section in which they
are drilling
The old Highland rig was disman-
tied during the week an is being sent
to .he Elko field. The rig standing
on the bench land has become land
mark since the first boom and while
lntle drilling was ever done 1t was
one of the advertisements of the
possibilities of the valley.

OF Oil Lands
Is Advocated
Big Money Balks When
Checker-Board Plat
Is Presented

4
In the past few weeks new phase
has been taken In the oil situation
in this district. During the hard
times the two wells that have been
operating did SO through the person
al purses of several men who have
faith in the game. Personal checks
have been used to carry on In the
past few months, without wieh there
would not have been rig working
today.
In talking over this with one who
is in touch with big oil money, in
real oil fields, he made a statement
that has considerable virtue. 1t was
pointed out that recently one of the
big oil developing concerns of south
ern California sent a man into this
field without a brass band accom-
paniment. After looking over the
situation it was announced that the
company could not come in owing to
the lay of the leases, they being cut
up into fractions with intervening
quarters and small cuts of sections
adjacent to the territory. In other
words before they would come in
with real money and father substan-
tial development it was demanded
hat the ingrowfng fractions be elm
mated and the land block be made
.resentable.
1t was further explained that the
company did not intend to devote
time and money ON an undeveloped
field with people close in waiting
for them to bring in well and then
profit from their efforts. They do not
object to the legitimates being in line
but not so close that it can tap the
gas pressure necessary for a gusher,
nor will they place money in a ven-
ture that means defense line of
wells to head off speculation.
1t was shown that parties who
should havee the best interests of the
field at heart have refused to sign up
leases and at the same time are not
N position to protect the land by
drilling or even promotion. 1t was
Hearty stated by the parties that be-
fore they would furnish the nece5-
! saTy money to put down a standard
hole under the approved plans of q
real operating company and with
money enough to see it through to
the very bottom, the lands under dis
cussion must be punched in such
position that assured them protec-
ton.
Some attempts have been made to
conform with the dictation of the
men who will furnish money for de-
velopment, and while some have seen
the light, others have refused to as
sist in complying with the only meth
cd that assures big money coming in
to a game that small money cannot
touch. 1t has been shown that a
stock plan is not practical and that
local money is not available. If the
lands adjacent to several of the in
eorporated companies can be brought
under one land grant or lease, block
ed in position instead of checker
boarded, at least two big concerns
will come in and drill for oil, they
being satisfied that there is a chance
for commercial flows in this valley.
