Oil Men
Learn Old
Indian Trick

While massive, deep-boring
drills have replaced the Am
erican Indians oil-gathering
trick of laying a blanket on p
petroleum-filmed stream and
then wringing it out, there's
one Indian trick modern oil
men continue to rely on in
emergencies.
Usually, the first thing Wis
itors to a petroleum refinery
notice is the flame they see
burning atop the tall flare
stack. What's it for" they
ask, "and how do you get it
lit?"
The flame is a safety pre-
caution that constantly burns
off excess gases, preventing
air pollution and demonstra-
ting that alls we'll. If a high
electrical device operated from
inside the plant, ignites it.
There's a standby circuit, in
wind ever extinguishes it, an
case the first fails.
And at one plant, if both
fail (Which hasn't happened
yet, there's an emn'o~oo =
ailable who is an expert bow
man. Reverting to the an
cient skills of the American
Indian, he actually relights
the flare by shooting a flam-
ing arrow.
