the fact that few of the leading

Following the usual pattern OF

ahead of the factories throughout
the final quarter of this year, but
the manufacturing division propose
once again to build up a substan-
tial inventory of new units as ra-

An important difference in the

CHEER LEADERS, HIGH STEP

The cheer leaders and High Step

day afternoon at 9th period and
learned the school yells and made
plans for the grand opening of the
football season Friday night. The
High Steppers is made up of girls
dressed in white skirts and black

half of each football game and,
with the aid of the cheer leaders,
go through a series of drills spell

The Wilmington morning star., 1940-09-15

However, that objective cannot be
reached until well into 1941 if only
the normal volume of orders for
new models develops. B arring
lays while new manufac turing is
being adjusted to assembly pro-
grams, the factories should turn
out an aggregate of close to 1,20O,-
900 new cars and commercial units
in the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Der quarter. Officially that will
mark the first three months of
the industry's 1941 model year. The
weekly output volume for the in
dustry began its upward turn again
last week, but the August and
September aggregate will not be
of major proportions because it
will lack the normal contribution
of several of the larger companies.
Official confirmation from Nash
that it's long talked about lower
priced car will be introduced early
in October along with the COM
pany's other 1941 models has now
aroused considerable speculation,
in trade circles as to the possible
advent of other lower priced units.
Nash has been working on the new
vehicle for about three years dur.

carrying on experiments with g
six cylinder L-head engine and one

CHANGE ROUTE
OF PIPELINE TO
GLENDIvE Line

LASGOW-Otto H. Bundy, man
ager of the Bowdoin division of
the Montana-Dakota Utilities Co.,
says a complete change" had been
made in plans for 10O-mile natural
gas line the company will build
this summer
The original plan was to build
the line from the Fort Peck termi-
nus directly southeast through Cir
Gle to Glendive, connecting with
the company's system in service of
North and South Dakota.
The revised program calls for
the line to go east from near Glas-
gov through Nashua and Frazer to
Wolf Point, and then turn south.
A feeder line will be constructed
from Wolf Point east to Poplar.
The pipeline project means ex-
pediture of approximately $1,000
600 in northeastern Montana this
year.

moved into Bowdoin field during

OF $500 feet, it is expected to drill
Bowdoin wells in about six days.
Drilling depth at BOwdoin is from
500 to /, 200 feet at which depth
gas is encountered. with an aver
age volume of 100000 cubic feet
per day. II Is expected that the first
well or two will require up to 10
days but when 1t is operating
properly, the rig is expected to
complete these wells in six days.
This IS the first time that rotary
has been used for shallow drilling

WILLSHAWIS
CHECKING As
MAP SHOWS

Finding OF the marker bed at
the base of the Colorado shale
gave the first definite check on ge-
ology OF Willshaw Flats antieline,
north of Kevin-Sunburst field, on
the Montana-Alberta border, this
week and gave definite assurance
of a structural condition as map
ped by the U.S.G.S.. according to
w NJ Hanlon who is drilling the
test Location is on the Merton
Mortgage company farm, in center
SWA SEA 6-37N-1W.
Until the marker bed was found
there was no certainty that the
structural high" was present at
the chosen drill site. Comparison
of the structural elevation of this
we'll with the Kyle-Volensky No. /
we'll, three miles east, showed that
the Willshaw Flats well is more
than 100 feet higher than the Vo-
lensky. The Volensky well had a
production OF between six and eight
barrels in the Cut Bank sand.
South and west of the Willshaw
Flats test is the old Hart-Green-
Lerum No. / well which had six
barrels of oil in the Cut Bank
sand. Both the Volensky and Lerum
wells developed water when drilled
deeper. The Cut Bank sand was
regarded merely as a stray" at
the time these wells were drilled,
and the significance of the show
ings was not recognized until the
year 1899 when the U.S.G.S. dis
covered the anticlinal nose coming
up onto the Sunburst dome from
the Alberta syncline.
The Hanlon well found the base
of the Colorado marker at 1893
feet. 1t carried no water, whereas
this sand carried water in both the
Lerum and Volensky wells. 1t is
believed that the structural clos
ure of 100 feet, with a definitely |
established section of Cut Bank |
sand present, gives good promise Of
production on the Willshaw Flats
nose. Located as high as it is,
