BEARCREEK MAN GETS
CHILE RADIO ANSWER

E. E. Fluke, owner of the Rec
Lodge-Bearereek mail and stage line
received letter the first of the week
from his son-in-law, E. H. Norris, who
is now resident of Rancagua, Chile
South America. This is the first Mr.
Fluke has heard from his son in-lav
for some length of time, as mail is
rather slow means of communication
between tn two points
The letter was in answer to a radio
message broadcast from Red Lodge by
Orvllle Viers, the noted amateur, and
was under date of January 5, 1929.
1t was an inquiry as to Mr.. Norris
welfare as it will be remembered on
the first of the year series of violent
earthquakes were experienced in var
ious parts of South America and par
ticularly in Chile, and was as follows
"Your daughter wishes to know
If you are safe after the earth
quake disaster Vivian Norris
Vivian makes her home with Mr..
and Mrs. Fluke, of Bearcreek, as her
father went to Chile about three years
ago to accept responsible position
with the Braden Copper company. It
was with apprehension for the fathers
safety that the message was sent out
on the air and what became of it la
ter will prove of interest.
In writing Mr.. Norris states he re-
ceived it in the mail as it was picked
up by an operator on United States
vessel that was cruising in British
waters and he Immediately sent it by
mail, not knowing whether some other
operator had also picked it up and for
warded it or not.
Mr.. Norris states that the disaster
in South America was terrible but
that he at no time was in any danger.
He expects to arrive home this fall
for visit, but will only take we'll
earned vacation as he will return to
the position in the southern hemis-
phere.

LOCAL GIRL Is HURT
IN WILD WEST SHOW

Alice Greenough was severely hurt
last week in Kenton, Ohio, while rid
ing a bucking horse with the King
Brothers wild west show in that city.
Two accidents occurred the same day,
'as the featured rider, Ethel Lagrange
OF Idaho, was thrown off her horse
alighting squarely on her head. At
first it was feared her neck had been
broken, but on regaining conscious
ness it was found that the accident
was not so serious ad reports are that
she is recovering nicely. However,
she has had enough and will not ap-
pear with the show any further.
Miss Greenough was not hurt very
badly and sprained arm was the
most painful. The next day she made
the leading appearance in the arena
and did trick riding. She will now be
the featured rider with the show all
during the summer months.
Turk Greenough, her brother who
is the champion horse rider and took
the honors at Pendleton, Oregon, last
summer, IS at present riding for the
Miller Brothers 101 Wild West, but
will be in Cheyenne next week in or
ier to receive a shipment Of wild
horses from Lodge Grass, on the Grow
indian reservation. He will take them
iirect to New York City for the show
md then will come to Red Lodge for
/ short vacation.
Turk plans to ride at rodeos and
airs and will not stay with the show.

GREAT FALLS GETS
BIG CHEVROLET PLANT

Plans for the erection of $150,000
plant in Great Falls for the Chevrolet
Motor company have been completed
and construction will begin at once,
according to recent reports.
1t is understood that Great Falls
will be made the district headquarters
of the company, with jurisdiction over
Montana and portions of neighboring
states. A number of employees will
be moved there from Butte, which
will mean the addition of at least 80
families to the population of the city.
The new plant, intended to house
the company's parts depot, will be
among the most modern industrial
buildings in the west it is said.

GAS LINE WILL LIKELY
PASS THRU RED LODGE

1t was learned Wednesday, states
The Denver Post of Sunday, Nav 26.
that plans are under way for another
large natural gas pipe line, with sew
eral local Denver companies interest
ed in the project.
The line will run from the Garland
dome in northwestern Wyoming TO
Anaconda, Montana, where it will
supply the huge main plants Of the
Anaconda Copper Mining company
1t will be approximately 200 miles
long and is stated will cost in the
nelghborhood of six million dollars.
The Utah Southern Oil company
has already developed gas production
at Garland dome, which is between
Garland and Lowell, and it is said to
be the leader in the project, although
the Producers & Refiners corporation.
the Ohio Oil company and the kinney
Coastal Oil company also hold exten-
siye interests in the field and stand
to share in the benefits. At the same
time 1t is understood that the Anaeon-
da company will have large share
IN the necessary financing and the
Midwest Refining company is said to
be giving serious consideration to
joining in the venture.
The Anaconda company is already
using natural gas as fuel in its sun
Elementary plant at Great Falls. and
the satisfactory results obtained since
1t was introduced last year have pro-
badly influenced the company in ar
ranging to install it in the main re-
flnerles. The gas in the Great Falls
plant is coming from fields nearby in
northern Montana, but it is notIof suf-
flclent volume to supply the main
unit.
For several years the Producers &
Reflners corporation and the Utah
Southern Oil company have been at
tempting to reach the oil sand that is
believed to exist below the gas hori-
zon at Garland dome, but due to the
enormous pressure, all efforts have
failed SO far Shallow sands have
yielded over two million barrels of oil
since the field was first discovered,
and this oil is thought to be seepinp
up through crevice that runs to the
lower strata. At the present time the
Utah Southern company has one so
gasser completed, while
the Producers & Refiners corporation
IS drilling two deep tests, one for the
joint account of the Kinney Coastal
Oil company.
From all accounts it would appear
that the pipe line from Garland dome
will go directly through Red Lodge.
1t is more than likely that it will be
quilt along the right-of-way of the
Burlington railroad until a jump can
oe made to Belfry, thence along the
bower transmission right-of way of
he Montana Power company from
3earcreek, through Red Lodge, and
hence to Absorakee and north to
Columbus. Then It will parallel the
Northern Pacific railroad to Rnfte
md Anaconda.
From Columbus, west, this gas line
will hit all the important towns on
he way to Anaconda. AS there is no
init to the amount of gas produced
n the Northern Wyoming fields, there
will be plenty to use for commercial
S we'll as manufacturing purposes in
II these towns.
