DOODL EBUG AGAIN
COMES TO BAD END

Another "doodlebug" operator
came to grief when the Securities
& Exchange Commission caught up
with him in Iosco county, Mich,
and Kent county, Ontario, where
William Guest was selling stock on
the strength of his oil locating de-
vice. He made the mistake of claim
ing that his doodlebug was sci
entific instrument which had dis
closed the presence of deposits Of
oil and gas and that the instrument
had successfully located deposits of
oil and gas on the properties of
the company. On the contrary 1t
was found that the instrument was
merely the willow crotch principle
and when the grand jury heard a
bout it, brought in a ten count in
dictment, in Detroit.

CAN'T FLY OVER BORDER

COUTTS-R E. Karels, owner
and pilot with Gordon Grist, oil man
OF Humboldt, Sask., flew here In
a monocoupe to visit the Border
Red Coulee and the other north
Montana oil fields.
On landing here they learned
with disappointment that they
could not fly back and forth across
the line as they intended because
the boundary posts of entry of
Coutts and Sweetgrass are not
clearance points for planes. Rath-
er than make flights to Lethbridge
and Great Falls for clearances of
their ship, they left IT here and
hired a car to commute back and
forth across the boundary.
