Comdr. Smith Is Decorated
For Badoeng Strait Fight

1t. Comdr. Harold P. Smith, for
merly commanding officer of the de-
stroger Stewart, today was awarded
the Navy Cross for "meritorious
ropduct" in action with the Stewart
in a February engagement with the
Japanese in the Badoeng Strait.
The citation said that 1t. Comdr.
Smith, although under heavy fire
from a greatly superior force,
pressed home the attack which re-
suited in severe damage to the en-
emy while receiving minor damage
TO his own ship and only one cas-
ualty to his personnel"
The Navy described on February
81 the action of six United States
destroyers, which. in company with
Dutch warships, attacked the Jap
anese landing force on the Island of
Bali and sank two enemy destroyers.
The Stewart was one of the United
States destroyers in this engage
ment.
The Stewards success was short
lived, for while being repaired in
drydock at Sourabaya, she was
knocked off the blocks during an
sir raid. She was later demolished
oy United States hands to prevent
her falling to the enemy.
1t. Comdr. Smith was born Feb
ruary IT. 1904. in Grand Bay, Ala.
Following graduation from the
Naval Academy, he had various du-
ties at sea and served two years at
the Naval Gun Factory in Wash

Dean NewhouSe estimated today

fraternities will accept any war

giving them all the privileges of the

recently that billiard tables and

The room and board innovation
is mutually beneficial. Houses which

year, unless war industry is taken
over by women" Dean Newhouse

Oil Mining 10 Get
Commercial Test
In Pennsylvania
Company to Sink Shaft
And Drill Horizontal
Wells in Old Field
Ey tre Associated Press.

Es tfe Associated Press.
TULSA, Okla, April 11-Mining
for oil soon win be given q CONNER
cial test in Pennsylvania as a means
of reviving production in old fields.
Announcement of the mining
project came today from the Inde-
pendent Petroleum Association of
America which said the test would
be made near Rocky Grove, Pa, by
the recently formed Venango De-
velopment Co.
1t is planned to- sink a shaft, 5 to
8 feet in diameter, about 400 feet to
the bottom Of a known oil sand
where a chamber 20 to 80 feet in
diameter would be hewn out. Hori-
zontal wells then would be drilled
as much as 1000 to 5000 feet into
the oil bearing sand, radiating as
wheel spokes from a-hub.
Test Climaxes Experiments.
Sand exposure in sizable min
ing operation is reported to be from
10000 to 10000 linear feet, the equiv
alent Of the exposure of 1000 to
1000 vertical wells.
Purpose of the mining method
would be to drain into the chamber
oil which could not be brought to
the surface by present methods.
The test would climax expert
ments of years by Leo Ranney,
technical adviser in charge of We
nango's operations.
Mr.. Renney holds patents on hori-
zontal drilling processes and made
tests from a 90-foot shaft near
Jacksboro, Tex, in 1925. More re-
Gently he experimental with hori-
zontal drilling into an ,outcropping
in Southeast Ohio.
For several years he also has car
ried on water mining operations
Before the war he directed revision
of Londons water supply system
through horizontal drilling. He was
called to Australia last year to in
vestigate oil mining possibilities.
Made Money in Toys.
Royalties from invention of toys
have aided in keeping Ranney going
while he developed his processes.
The way to make money is to
invent something people can play
with" he once told a friend.
Use of pits or shafts to recover
oil antedated well drilling but has
little success in this country.
OIL mining in the Pechelbronn
area OF Alsace, now German terri
tory, has been used since the middle
of the 18th century. Production was
obtained both by use of subsurface
pits and actual removal of oil bear
ing sand to the surface where the
oil was recovered by a hot-water
process.

the session, but regained most lost

Light offerings, some covering by
previous short sellers and strength

considered mildly bullish, although
traders said it created little buying.
Traders said dealings were fea-

Light Company Applies
For New Certificate

The Washington Gas Light Co.,
acting under an amended section of
the Natural Gas Act, applied to the
Federal Power Commission today
for certificate of public convent
ence and necessity approving its
continued operation under facilities
as they existed on February Of
this year.
The amendment requires all nat
ural gas companies under the COM
missions jurisdiction to obtain such
certificate. The company reported
in its application that 229, 1874 active
meters were in service in the Wash
ington Metropolitan Area at the end
of last year and that gas sales to
general consumers during 1941 to-
tailed nearly $4,000, 100000 cubic feet.
A similar application, according to
Power Commission officials, was re-
celved from the Prince Georges Gas
Corp, subsidiary of the Washing
ton Gas Light Co.

scribed damage to a light cruiser
on one day and another direct hit
on following day should be
changed to make it clear that a
third cruiser was included in the
damaged list. In item c of last
weeks communique two seaplane
tenders were listed as being DAM
aged near the island of Bali and
today the Navy changed Item c
to exclude seaplane tenders and
substitute the damage to a large
transport near Bali.
Difficulties in transmission of code
messages caused these mixups and
also caused the Navy to refer last
week to damage to lone barge trans
port" when it should have read
'one large transport
The Navy made it plain that all
the damage recorded in last Satur-
days communique with the excep-
ton of that done to supply ship
in waters near Lombok Island was
done by one United States sub
marine on patrol.
