was taken over the various prospec

enthusiastic over tho outlook for

proven to be groundless bv drilling

say that vour companies in the lioguo
alley will succeed in bringing in a
producer. Only actual drilling opera

business-like manner can determine
that."
Clark was much interested m the

When reminded that a blizzard was

"If vour comian:cs succeed in
