Striking clocks you can find. Set
them at different hours and put
them in all sorts of unusual places
so that chimes and gongs viii sound

Use black-and-white decorations
with clock faces drawn on white

black-and-white paper drapes, a
black-and-white checkered paper
cloth for your table, and black.
and-white glass or china.
You can have a clever question.

your questions typed on slips of pa

them around, set time limit for
answering, and make your prizes
something to do with time-a ca,en-

future needs when sources OF sup

along the line that the Government
should build immense underground
storage reservoirs for fuel oil in
the Puget Sound district and feed
them from some interior point such
as Wyoming, where there are album

considered more in the light OF a

Light ROTARY
DRILLS DOWN
T02,050

Zodiac Oil company's test on the
Kellog farm on Pendroy structure
is reported shut down at a depth
OF 1850 feet, waiting for the ar
rival of additional drill pipe.
This well. in NE NWA NEA
33-2S-5W, is being drilled with
portable rotary tools, this being the
first well drilled in northern Mon
taana with this type of equipment.
Owing to delays related to loss of
circulation in the Eagle sandstone
and similar soft sands, the well has
not made the rapid progress expect
ed, but the industry is respectful
of the fact that the light rig has
made more than 1000 feet of hole
with no great difficulty. Operators
say that the rig has established its
value for shallow drilling in such
fields as Kevin-Sunburst and Pom
dera where it could doubtless COM
pete with cable tools, once the tech
nique of drilling the Colorado
shales is known to the rotary drill
lers.
The Zodiac-Kellogg is believed
to be only a short distance off the
Madison lime contact which is the
objective Of this test. The well is
located on the north side OF
large fault, with 900 feet of dis
placement. which fault was located
by geophysical prospecting. The
presence of the fault was also es-
tablished by the drilling OF wells
on both sides of the fault The
well is on the low" side
and the Wallenstein well Is on the
high aside. The latter well is shut
down for the winter but is intend
ed as a Devonian test.

Nothing definitely can be deter
mined in Denver regarding any such
project. but another OF a similar ma
ture was considered here the past
summer. This project proposed to
pipe Wyoming black oil to the Pa
cific northwest, the line to run in
to Montana and to turn west thru
the Inland Empire to pick up such
additional crude as might be avail
able in Montana. 1t went far enough
to have a reconnaissance survey
made by airplane from a projected
route, but the investigations indi-
Gated oil shipped through such a
line would be competitive with Cal

possibilities were questionable. AS
far as is known nothing further was
done other than to sound out pos

financial aid.
Another angle is that the feder-
al Government is launching an ag-
