PROBABLE CHOICE

Y Y ters to have put in

vealed today by George L. Ise-
mann, secretary of the N. D. B.
c., who also intimated the Capt.
tol stood a fine chance of being
awarded the titular classic.
Richmond and Hartford are the
other cities to request the tourney.
Isemann announced, but with bowling
coin not yet as free as three or four
years ago and the Districts geograph-
ical advantage over the rival Virginia
and Connecticut towns. confidence has
been expressed by the Arcadia Of
ficials, only local bidders thus far.
that Washington will receive the full
est consideration.
Hartford was the scene of the tour
nament last year, but, due to its
extreme location along the duckpin
bowling front. entries were not SO
plentiful, particularly from the Mid
die and South Atlantic sector, where
many boWlers were forced to forego
the event because of the transporta-
ton expense.
Richmond. likewise. suffers by its
location, though to a lesser degree,
for its distance is prohibtiye to the
New England section, where the duck
pin game is booming after a long
battle with candlepins and other
forms of bowling for popularity
Smack in the center of the duck
pin front, however. stands the Dis
trict, which has polIed the highest
entry list of any other city in the
business OF attracting contestants in
previous Journeys. Within easy reach
of Baltimore. Richmond. Norfolk,
Martinsburg and other little pin hot
beds, the Capital also offers. of course,
outside attractions lacked by many
other cities and is magnet for even
New England and Far South pinners.
The last tournament in Washing
ton was held at Convention Hall in
1881. Norfolk staged the event in
1882. Hartford last year and next
month Baltimore Will play host.

A rotary core o. the pro-
ducing sand Of Cut Bank
field this week revealed the
presence o. three thin wa
ter stra4as In the Cut Bank
(DarIing) sand. which Is che
lover member Of tzae basal
Kootenai sandstones.
The core was taken from the
Texas company's Hasgerty No. !
wen IN sAe sast SEA $50 sw.
The core showed moisture IN
thin bands from three to SIX
inches thick.
AS a result Of this discovery,
Texaco set its casing in the sand,
below the water, rather than at
the top Of the sand. The pipe
was set at 1885 feet. at the first
showing Of oil. There was 20
feet OF saturation below this
first showing. Several other wells
have had a little water which
seriously handicapped production,
owing to the fact that this Is
paraffin base oil. but none knew
definitely whether It was water
coming from the sand or from
casing leak.
Another important discovery,
first pointed out in this field by.
R. C. Tarrant, is the fact that
the thick sands above the pro-
ducing horizon 'thief" the oil.
Frequently there is as much as
SO feet Of sand Of which only the
bottom 20 feet Is saturated, sep
arated BY a shell or shale break.
With casing set at the top OF
the sand, the oil rises IN the
hole and is quickly absorbed by
the 80 feet OF dry sandstone.
Some operators have estimated
that this dry sand may absorb
as much as 30 barrels per day. |
It was noticed by Tarrant that
production improved after the
sand had seemingly filled up, |
