Kalamazoo had four in all. The
Hurons gained possession OF the
ball on the Kalamazoo IS In the
first period when Center Larry
Tremper nabbed a Hornet tumble.
Kalamazoo frightened when the
pressure was on, however. to pre-
vent the Hurons from netting
more than two yards in four downs
Then the Hornets took possession
OF the ball and booted it far up the
field.
Another interception OF a Mich.
igan Normal pass only few min
utes after Kalamazoo had scored
its touchdown again placed the
Hornets deep in Huron territory.
After a fiye-yard penalty for back
field in motion stymied the Hor-
nets, they decided to attempt a
field goal. Boekelman's kick was
wide of the goal posts.
Kalamazoo got as far as Mich
igan Normal's % in the early part
OF the second stanza on a recovery
of a Huron tumble. Just before the
half the Hornets again threatened
when Bill Olvitt raced 81 yards
down the sideline to the 39-yard
line. Normal was penalized Is yards
Tor unnecessary roughness on the
same play.
Slabaugh intercepted a pass by
Bell, intended for Gilman, to
squelch the Hornet offensive, how
ever.
The Hurons displayed two stand
out players on the field, Guard
Ralph Buckles and Halfback Jack
Brown. Buckles, starting his first
game for Michigan Normal. made
the major share OF his team 8
tackles. Brown turned in some
flashy running after he entered the
game in the third quarter.

Pair of Short
Forward Passes
Seal Huron Fate
Quarterback Allen
Bell Does Trick;
Crowd Partisan

Clicking twice on pair OF short
forward passes by Quarterback
Allen Bell, Kalamazoo College
pierced the football defense OF
Michigan Normal for a brief instant
in the third quarter Saturday night
TO gain 10 decision before a high
ly partisan crowd at College Field,
Kalamazoo.
Bell, a curly-headed freshman
from South Bend. Ind, pitched
13-yard aerial 10 Douglas Braham.
and then a l9-yard toss to Capt.
Gerald Gilman. to produce Kalama-
zoos touchdown margin. These
were the only passes the Hornets
completed throughout the game.
An interception OF forward
thrown by Chuck Nemeth. Huron
halfback, really set the stage for
Kalamazoo's score. Substitute Bruce
Mason grabbed Nemeth's pass out
OF the hands of Howard Slabaugh,
the intended receiver, on the Huron
Al and sprinted three additional
yards before being stopped.
Fullback Jack Bockelman cracked
off tackle for three yards, and
Halfback Gerald Somers duplicated
his effort 10 move the ball down TO
the 80. Then, Bell. a diminutive 150-
FOUNDER, whipped his pass to Bra
ham, bringing the Hornets a first
down on the 10.
Bell again fooled the Michigan
secondary on the next play when
he shot his aerial to Gilman, who
was standing alone in the end zone.
Bockelman place kicked the extra
point.
The victory maintained Kalama-
zoos undefeated record, the Hor-
nets having downed Grand Rapids
Junior College and Hillsdale before
dropping the Hurons. Michigan
Normals season record now in
cludes two scoreless ties and one
defeat
With the exception OF the aerial
department, Michigan Normal shad-
ed the Hornets statistically. The
Hurons only gained 20 yards on
three completed passes. They tried

Despite this apparent numerical
superiority. Normal was presented
with only one scoring chance, while

RIMROCK TEST
CHECKING WITH
OIL CONTOURS

Completion of Kevin's most in
teresting wildcat test, the High
Gravity Production company-Hor-
ner-Shelton No. 1, in Sc NWA
NEA 19-35-3W, west of Kelvin and
on the wall of the west rimrock
of the Sweetgrass Arch, was de-
layed this week after casing had
been run at 1885 feet, in the top
of the Sunburst sand.
Reports of an oil strike were de-
MED by the owners who declared
that they have some pending mat
tiers which must be concluded be-
fore the well is drilled in. They
said that the we'll is checking with
the contours mapped by Geologist
Fred K. Houston, pioneer geolo-
gist of West Kelvin district. The
top Of the Sunburst sand, found at
1880, was the marker bed on which
biologists were able to definitely
establish the stratigraphical loca-
tion of the well. Surface elevation
is $500 feet, which Dis approximate
ly 800 feet higher than the produc-
ing wells in the Rimrock pool. Com

MORTALITY OF
WILDCATS WAS
HIGH In 1910

Montana added but little to its
oil reserves during the year 1910,
according to survey of wildcat
operations. No new fields were
brought in and no new pools were
developed adjacent to present pro-
duction. The only increase in re-
serves resulted from the extension
of three areas of Cut Bank field.
Seven wildcats were completed but
none found oil or gas in CONNER
cial quantities. This compares with
II failures in 1899 and 10 in 1898.
The most important extension was
to the Big Bend pool in the south
end OF the field where the Cobb
Tribal we'll in Section 19-32-5W,
added perhaps $40 acres to the pro-
ductive area.
On the north end of Cut Bank
perhaps 120 acres was added by
the drilling of the Texaco-Tweedy
No. 8, on the southwest edge of the
Lander pool.
In the east central portion the
area was pushed eastward over an
area of perhaps 100 acres in Sec
ton 19-34-5W.
No new oil field has been dis
covered in Montana since 1892
when Cut Bank came into CONNER
cial production. The only increases
in reserves in that period have re-
suited from the extension of the
limits of Kevin-Sunburst and Cut
Bank field.
The end of the year saw several
promising wildcat wells.
One. the Regan-Tribal 1914 No. 1,
GEL SEA NEA 22-37-7W, north
west of Cut Bank field, got under
way in December and is now shut
down waiting for rotary tools, to
be moved in from Cat Greek by
Newell & Chandler.
Two extensions Of Cut Bank field
are in the making. one on the west
side OF the Rimrock high gravity
pool and the other on the Aloe nose
to the southwest.
One uncompleted wildcat test
east OF Kevin-Sunburst is Montana
Nelson No. 1, near Berthelote
pool, which is today resuming drill
ling with only a few feet 10 go to
these the lower Kootenai sands.
other wildcat wells in the state
are shut down.

new ALBERTA
OIL STRIKE IN
TOP OF Lin

American oil men returning from
Steveville. Alberta. where Standard
Of b. c. California company has
brought in 16O-barrel oil well,
report that the discovery is an i'm
portant one and doubtless opens
up a second major oil field in AL
berta
Contrary to first reports, this
well is getting its production from
Kelvin horizon. at the contact Of
the Madison lime, they say. The
well. known as Princess No. 2. was
drilled to the DeYonian and then
plugged back TO the contact at
1926 feet.
The oil is 25 gravity and is ac-
companied by a flow OF perhaps
100000 cubic feet of gas and a
showing OF water which has result
ed in considerable cut oil. 1t was
the third test on the structure
which is a vast flat, low-dip area
similar to Kelvin field, largely con-
trolled by Standard of b. c. How

gress with most of the Turner
Valley operators taking leases ad-
jacent to the Standard block.
The first well did not find oil
at the lime contact and continued
on down into the Devonian where
oil showings and a flow of So
100000 cubic feet OF gas were en-
countered. The gas flow destroyed
the derrick and 1t was controlled
only after great difficulty. The
Princess No. 2, located in LSD
of Sec. 13-2O-12W4, about one
mile south and five miles east OF
Patricia, near Princess siding, was
carried to 1850 feet, in the De-
vonian, where water was encounter
ed 1t was bridged back to the
lime contact and put on test.

MAX BALL TELLS
BIOLOGISTS ABOUT
ATHABASKA SANDS

Max Ball, widely known geolo-
gist and foremost authority on the
Athabaska tar sands. spoke before a
group OF ~ Calgary biologists on
the tar sands and methods OF re-
covery and refining Of oil. The
talk was illustrated with pictures
showing she various steps in the
process. The oil is contained in
soft Dakota shales which rest up
on the DeYonian. The shale is
mined by steam shovel methods,
dumped into a revolving screen
washer, and the oil is floated out
by hot water The process Of re-
filming was also shown in detail.
Lack OF adequate transportation ia
cilities Is the principal handicap at
the present time, Ball stated. The
session ended in general discussion,
having chiefly to do with the prob
lem OF the origin OF oil.

Moose Dome holdings of r. W. Phi
ling. former Shelby resident, VINO
for more than Is years been work
ing to get the structure developed.
During that time he sent son to
college and educated him as a
geologist That son, Loran H. Pill
ling, was an important factor in
in impressing the major companies
with the Importance of the Devon
ian as a source of oil in the North
Rocky Mountain region. He has
written numerous reports, all re-
volving around Moose Dome. where
the Devonian lis within easy reach
of the drill. Elsewhere in Alberta
the Devonian is found at depths
of 1000 feet or more, as at Steve
vile.
Early Report
AS shown in the accompanying
illustration, the wellsites Of Moose
dome are in the midst of high lime
rock walls. This limerick is the
Madison limestone at the top of
which Kelvin field gets it's princi-
pal production. Near the bottom OF
this same lime, Turner Valley gets
it's production, at around $500 to
10000 feet. But in the mountains
the Madison lime is pretty well
eroded away.
The we'll shown in the picture is
the Moose Oils, Ltd, well, drilled
through the efforts of Pilling. This
we'll had frequent flows of wat
er in the Mississipian lime but
these were cased off, contrary to
Kelvin practice, and drilling contin-
