Mississippi has 81 oil and gas
fields and 43 separate producing
reservoirs, the latest Petroleum
Activity Report" OF the State Oil
and Gas Board reveals.
Except for those actively in
terested in the oil and gas play,
most Mississippians know of less
than a of fields and very
few r aware that more than
half of the oil fields produce more
than one pool OF reservoir.
For instance, taking them in
order, the Baskerville field in
Lamar and Marion counties pro-
duces from both Lower Tusca-
looSa and Upper Tuscaloosa res
ervoirs. The Brookhaven field of
Lincoln county - one of the
states greatest Strikes, r pro-
duces from but one reservoir, in
the Lower Tuscaloosa formation.
The Bruinsburg field in Claiborne
county, Bude field in Franklin
county and Carthage Point field
in Adams county, each produce
from but one reservoir, Bruins
burg from a Claiborne Cockfield
pool and the latter two from the
Lower Tuscaloosa formation.
However, Cranfield field, in
Adams and Franklin counties, has
three producing pools = a Pal
uxy reservoir which yields gas
and Lower Tuscaloosa and Will
cox pools which produce high
grade crude oil.

QUESTION: What is the origin
of this term.
ANSWER: The term Chuppah
supposedly comes from a Hebrew
word meaning to cover. Since the
canopy is in reality a cover of a
sort, it is fittingly referred to as
a chuppah which literally means
a cover.
4 Il
QUESTION: Why is it neces-
sary to have Chuppah at a ira
ditiOnal wedding ceremony?
ANSWER: The simplest reason
advanced is the fact that in Jew
ish life marriage is regarded as a
revered institution. Thus, a Jew
cannot just select his wife and
take off with her anywhere that
he pleases. From the early days,
carriage required a special place
"a private atmosphere of some
sort. Thus, for example, it is
claimed by many that the original
connotation of the term Chuppah
indicated the room which bride
and groom had chosen to occupy.
1t was customary, then, for the
bride and groom to be married in
the room they expected to occupy
and then be left alone to each
other as a symbol of belonging to
each other. Even to this day the
observant Jew requires the bride
and groom to be ushered into a
room after the ceremony to be left
alone to eat for awhile as SYM
boil of their newly-won right to
privacy and belonging to each
other.
