Scholarship Fund
Being Increased

University Park, Pa. 49, John P.
Herrick, oil man and author Of
Los Angeles, Calf, has increased
from three to seven the number of
perpetual scholarships he has en-
dowed at The Pennsylvania State
University in memory of Edwin L.
Drake, who drilled the worlds first
commercial oil we'll at Titusville,
Pa, in 1859.
Three Of the four new scholar
ships already have been awarded
and the fourth is in the hands Of
committee evaluating eligible can
didates. The scholarships are a
warded annually to students in the
College of Mineral Industries at
Penn State who intend to pursue
an oil industry career in the fields
of geology, mineralogy or engineer
ing.
Herrick established the Edwin
L. Drake Memorial Scholarship at
Penn State in 1852, commenting
that he wished to establish living
memorial in the form Of free oil
scholarships in honor of Colonel
Drake who completed the first we'll
drilled for oil in the United States
and profited little from his discov-
cry"
Concerning the new awards, Her
rick said, 81 am proud to have a
part nhonoring the memory of the
man who drilled the first produc-
ing oil well in Pennsylvania"
The scholarship donor was a
country school teacher at the age Of
II and an editor and publisher of
New York State weekly newspa-
pers at Is. After more than 20
years of active newspaper editing
and publishing, he successfully en-
gagged in real estate, banking and
insurance as we'll as in producing
oil in New York State. He helped
found the Pennsylvania Grade
Crude oil Association, is president
emeritus of the New York State
Oil Producers Association, and be-
longs to the American Petroleum
Institute and other oil associations.
He is the author Of three books,
Empire OIL" Bolivar, New York
Pioneer Oil Town" and Founding
a Country Newspaper so Years
Ago."

The organization, with headquar-
tiers in Mound Bayou, where its
modern Hospital, stated by a
corps of Doctors, Surgeons, and
trained Nurses, along with its new
erected two-story brick office, is a
show place of the town, and is the
largest fraternal organization of
its kind in the state with assets
of nearly one-quarter million dol
lars.
In his annual message the Chief
Grand Mentor not only revealed an
increase in service to its men,
bers at the Mound Bayou Hospital
but also noted a substantial in
crease in membership during the
past year.
During his message the Chief
Grand Mentor also called upon
the leaders and members of the or
ganization for a higher type dem
onstration of moral character in
order to prove their right to first
class citizenship.
DIR. J. w. Bacoats, President of
Benedict College, Columbia was
the principal speaker of the meet
ing.
In his address, which was we'll
received by h is hearers, DR.. Ba-

Rotary Activity
Drops Slightly
In u. S., Canada

Dallas-Rotary drilling opera
TOMS dropped slightly in the
United States and Canada during
the week ended October 81, accord
ing to a count by Hughes Tool Co.
The tool firm reported to Am
erican Association Of Oilwell Drill
ling Contractors that 1856 units
were operating in the two countries
during the week. This compared
with 1898 active rigs the previous
week, with 1895 a month ago and
2452 in the comparable week Of
1854.
The major decline was reported
for the Gulf Coast where 81 rigs
were idled during the week. Cana
dian operations also dropped II
units. A loss of Z rigs was re-
ported for the Rocky Mountains
while lesser losses were counted
in the Pacific Coast area, Kansas,
Ark-La- Tex and Illinois.
Oklahoma operations, meantime,
showed the only appreciate gain
for any region with an increase of
10 rigs. Gains Of one rig each
were made in West Texas-New
Mexico and North Texas.
Following are principal areas
showing number Of rigs busy dur
ing week ended October 81 and
changes from the previous week:
Pacific Coast 142, down 4; Okla
homa 359, up 10; Kansas 1872, down

Future Seen For
Nucleur Energy
In Refining

Nuclear energy may well find
future application across the
Board" in refining procedures, The
Oil and Gas Journal says in its
November z issue.
Radioactive isotopes may be COM
bined with conventional techniques
involving heat, pressure, and cat
alysis to set off hydrocarbon re-
actions impossible or impractical
today, the Journal states. Studies
are underway to determine how
this form Of energy can affect cat
alytic and thermal cracking, hydro
cracking, isomerization, hydrogen
alton, dehydrogenation, polymeri-
zation, alkylation and reforming.
Oil industry use Of radioactive
isotopes is not new, the Journal
points out, but the new concept
takes this source Of energy out Of
the category Of an auxiliary tool.
It proposes to give it basic po-
sition in processing petroleum. And
plans are to go beyond the straight
use Of isotopes to the use of par
ticle accelerators. They provide
added flexibility and power by ac-
celebrating and concentrating the
flow of atomic particles from radio
active sources.
In studying the possibilities of
radiation processing, oil companies
are taking two general routes, the
magazine says. One utilizes radio.
active isotopes which show high
activity, such as cobalt 60 as well
as fission-waste radioisotopes. The
other route employees the Van dc
CRAFT particle accelerator, which
is in effect an electron gun. This
provides a higher energy source
than presently used isotopes.
The use of both stable and radio
active isotopes in manufacturing
can be roughly classified three
ways. Predominant is the research
application. Many techniques have
found application in refineries un
der the Operating" category. A
third use is evaluation Of finished
petroleum products.
Spectacular as this new research
concept may be, it still lies in the
real moi promised developments,
the Journal says. "Some observers
call the approaching changes thu
greatest thing in refining since
catalysis."

World YMCA-
YWcA Week
Of Prayer To
beObserved

"That You May Believe is the
theme of the 1866 World YMCA-
YWCA Week of Prayer to be OBJ
served Nov. 18th through Nov.
10Th. The Parish Street YMCA is
but one of the thousands of Asso-
Citations in 81 countries of the
world which will be sharing this
week of concentrated prayer and
Bible reading.
On the local scene the YMCA's
Religious Emphasis Committee has
contacted a large number of chur-
ches in the community to enlist
their aid in the effort to promote
this special season of prayer.
A special bulletin, prepared by
the Worlds YWCA and Worlds
Alliance of YMCA's in cooperation,
has been distributed to the min
listers of the city. This piece of
material contains a plan of scrip
ture reading, comments, and
prayer for each day of the speci-
fled week.
That you may believe, testi-
monials have been drawn from
five men; five persons with an
intimate knowledge of the power
of the Master: A Paralyzed Man,
A Tax Collector, A Mailman, An
Eager Disciple, A Troubled Father,
and A Soldier on Duty. Around
these people and, more specifically,
ly, around the way their lives were
changed and enriched by their as
ISOLATION with the Carpenter of
Nazareth, the week of prayer will
be centered.
Decide now that you will share
in this glorious week of earnest
petition in some way. There will
be great reward in the linking of
your heart with the hearts of
others; the joining of your soul
with the souls of others. Much
personal strength will be derived
from the fact that your spirit is
one with millions of spirits grid
ing the globe in prayer.
Announcements will be made
later in this week of the churches
where worship services for this
particular observance will be held,
and the hours of the services will
be released in order that the public
may avail itself of the opportunity
of becoming a part of it.

The history of the Palisades
group is that Of almost any as

describes it: "On a cold rainy
night in october. 1916, so resi-
dents of the section, fearful of
the fire hazards surrounding
their homes met in the
Parish Hall of st. David's
Church"
There were achievements along
the way, but present officers
prefer to talk about what is
happening today.
They are working now on ways
to clean up the Potomac River
and for better ways to link up
outer road systems. This week,
the associations annual "Beau-
Itiful Homes Contest" opens.
The big thing at Palisades,
however. is what happened when

are required to register.
Exempted from the legislation
passed yesterday would be diplo-

GUN SAFETY GLASSES END FOR SEASON

Gun safety classes which have been held throughout the winter at the Matanuska Valley Sports men indoor range, were complet- ed this week, according to an an nouncement by Noel Woods. The classes, which were sponsored by the Sportsmen, proved more than popular, with over 40 valley youths participating in the pro- gram.
 Woods was assisted by his bro- ther Larry Woods. Ed Bellringer was unable to continue his work with the group because of a nec- essary Stateside trip.
 Throughout the course gun safety was promoted and includ- ed instructions on how to handle and shoot firearms; correct sight alignment; trigger squeeze and some time on how to get steady position for shooting. Each par ticipant fired 10 pounds of ann munition each evening
 Woods stated tF7is week that if enough interest is shown this same course of instruction will begin again on November 1, 1855.

Bailey explained, i've are many times able to catch a physical defect before the child or parent is even aware of it. Any adverse find- ing is referred to the girls family physician for follow-up care.
 Dr. Bailey compllmented the Girl Scout organization for their interest in the physical condition of the girls. If the child should be found to have a perforated ear drum, for instance" he said, the Scout leader will know that that child shouldn't be in the water-a child suffering from a hernia will have it's strenuous play restrained-thes are just a few examples of things that are caught early through these ex- aminations," he pointed out. Heart disease, flat feet and other impairments are discovered early and by knowing, Scout leaders are able to prevent any further damage by gauging a Girl Scouts activities to her physical well be- ing.
 With the addition of the new X-ray equipment, we will offer this service in our future exam nations" Dr. Bailey added. If an X-ray seems necessary, this will become part of the girls examination at no cost.
 "This is one of the many ways
