Electric Power Output
Al New High in 1852

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The elec-

Of critical materials.
The Nations power men weren't
able to complete all the expansion
they planned. Nor did they attain
the peaks they hoped to climb.
But it was a record year none

Oil Producers Call
81 Record Breaker,
Hope for Easier So
BY the Associated Press

HOUSTON, Tex. Jan. 3.-Oil-
men expect 1853 to be a bit better
than 1852. which for the most
part was q record breaker.
No big increase in products de-
mand is foreseen, barring expan-
sion Of the Korean fighting or an
on another front.
The industry's leaders are not
pesSimistic. They just believe
there will not be as much strain
in meeting requirements as has
been the case in most other post
war years.
Most estimates see 1858 demand
1852 by not more than
5 per cent, or less than half the
size Of most recent annual in
creases.
Part Of the reason is that the
new year inherits an industry
which, supply-wise, is in a very
healthy condition.
Production rates and stock
levels were impressive as 1852
neared its end. There were in
calls for cutbacks. both
in the field and at the refinery.
so as to reduce stocks to more
desirable working levels.
Oilmen began and ended 1852
complaining of shortages of steel
supplies. At midyear they had
their headaches complicated by
steel and refinery labor strikes.
Despite such troubles. the in
dustry managed to finish 1852 in
this position:
Crude production in late No.
vember reached a record $500 900
barrels day after dropping as
low as So million during the
strikes.
Refineries were processing, a
record 7.143.000 barrels of crude
daily in late November.
Steel supply problems did not
prevent a third consecutive an
nual record in drilling operations.

The IS billion total represents
a drop of $50 million from the
foreign aid figure chalked up in
1851. But despite this there was
a significant difference in the
1852 total which spelled more
security against the threat of
worldwide communism:
For. the first time since the end

Harmless Stunts For
Fun On Halloween

If you teen-agers are looking fol
something different for your Hal
loween party, all you have to do is
20 back a few centuries and select
some of the now forgotten GUS
toms and superstitions. Revive any
of the following stunts and you'll
have Halloween party that will
be one of the events of the year
and will be talked about for q
long time.
Have a number of apples -
few more than there are boys at
your party = placed about the
Kitchen, on ledges, window shelves
stove etc. Announce that each boy
has to go out to the kitchen and
bring back an apple. While they
are gone, quickly let each girl
draw number written on a cab
bage leaf. The boys return one by
one. A girls future husbands
name will be the same as that OF
the boy whose order of appearance
corresponds to the girls number
For example, a girl who has num-
Der will some day marry man
of the name as the fifth boy to
come back into the room. OF
course the boys must share the
apples with the girls who claim
them by number. Also these
couples have the next dance. (This
stunt is based on an old, Scottish
custom. Young women would go to
the garden and pull cabbage stalks
to hang over the door. Each stalk
was numbered according to size
The men were counted as they en-
tered the door.)
Now it's the boys turn to learn
the first name of girls they will
marry. An ancient custom in Europe
had a boy place SO grains of oats
in his mouth and walk about with
out speaking until he chanced to
hear the name of a girl. This would
be the name of his future wife. Fo1
your party you can use popular
cereal oat. Send the boys into an
other room and blindfold them one
by one. When boy is blindfolded
with 9 oats in his mouth he is es-
corted into the room where the
girls are waiting. He wanders
about until he touches a girl
whereupon she must call out I1e1
name. When couples are paired
they sit down. The girls aren't
allowed to move about or dodge the
blindfolded young man. The last
boy to come in of course gets the
only girl remaining but he must
find her according to rule and hear
her call out her name. Of course
the couples are partners for the
next dance. And the oats? The boy.
eat them.
The next stunt is one that ha!
been associated for ages with Hal
loween. 1t involves a fortune-tel
ling. cat. You must have a cat - {
black one preferably. Seat every
one in the room and bring in the
cat. The cat must be placed
front of each person in turn. One
minute is allowed for the cat Il
act. Here's the way you interpre
its actions: If the cat sits quietl,-
it means the person before whom i
sits will have peace and pros
perity. If the cat jumps up in tn,
persons lap, it means extra gooc
luck. If the cat rubs against tn,
persons leg it means good fortune
If the cat runs away, it means tn,
person has a secret that must b,
told and he must tell it or pay ;
