Noble County To Send 16 Men
For Pre-InduCtion Examinations
Bob Secrest At AZ
Will Not Volunteer

Bob Secrest is not resigning
from Congress this war, as he
did the last, to go into the
service. He is on the inactive
Naval Reserve list, but he
doesn't intend to volunteer.
Il am old enough now-al-
most 47-that | would prob
ably never get out of Wash
ington anyway" he says.
Congressman Secrest has
been contacted by the commit
tee on flood control and the
Leatherwood dam and has
promised to study the matter
before Congress appropriates
any funds for the dam. With
the Korean situation as it is,
that may be a long time-or
again, if the dam is to be used
by a chemical plant, as some
insist, it may be very soon.

Texas Eastern
Completes Test.
Little Big Inch
In Noble-Monroe
Counties; Now In
Muskingum Sector

Work of testing and complete
ly rehabilitating the Little Big
Inch pipe line in Monroe and
eastern Noble counties was fin
ished Wednesday Texas East
ern Transmission Corporation
reported today. The 90-man pipe
line crew is now enroute to Mus
kingum and Perry counties.
Hydrostatic tests in those
counties will begin late this
week. The new test section on
the 20-inch natural gas pipe line
will extend 20 miles from the
Muskingum river to Texas East
ern's station No. 18 near Somer-
set. Field headquarters will be
at Crooksville. After work has
been finished on this section the
crew will return to Noble coun-
ty and rehabilitate the line be-
tween the Muskingum and COM
pressor station No. l9 at Sum-
merfield.
Testing the Little Big Inch
with water under pressure and
replacing unsatisfactory sections
with new pipe was completed in
Monroe county within one week..
This was considerably ahead of
schedule, in spite of hilly ter
rain which often required the
lowering of heavy equipment
into gullies by winches.
During the summer the entire
length of the pipeline in Ohio
will be similarly tested and ex-
isting pipe replaced wherever
required. The 20-inch line will
then rejoin the Big Inch in sup
plying needed natural gas to
Ohio distributing companies.
Ross Mckee, with public re-
lations offices in New York City,
has been in this section for the
past three weeks, where he has
been keeping in close contact
with the hydrostatic tests.
Owned and operated by Texas
Eastern Transmission Corpora
ton with headquarters in
Shreveport, La. testing and re-
habilitating the Little Big Inch
pipe line is another of the many
progressive steps which the
comnanv has taken To nrotect
their interests, as we'll as the
property owners in this section.
1t is also another big factor in
establishing good will along the
entire pipe line.
During the past year, three
explosions have occurred on this
line. 1t was in order to avoid any
similar explosions or breaks in
the future that the rehabilitation
project was ipaugurated.
