Former Med ford
Couple Visit
Mr. and Mrs. LaVerne Sutherlln
of San Francisco arrived In Medford
recently for a fortnights' sojourn. At
present they are house guests of
- Mr.'-Sutherlln's parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Louis Smlck at their home on South
Ivy street.
While In southern Oregon the cou
ple will motor to Roseburg and Cot
tage Grove to visit other relatives.
During their Medford stay they will
be the Inspiration for several social
events.
Mr. and Mrs.' Sutherlln formerly
lived In Medford and are well known
In the valley.
Down or up
he finally
got there
BEFORE the first Caesar's
nurse ever spanked little
Julius, China bored salt wells
by having coolies jump on to
a platform fastened to the drill.
You might say those coolies
drilled wells with their bare
feet.
When D. G. Scofield sank
the first discovery well in Cali
fornia, back in 187$, he and
his men worked like coolies,
and we'll tell you why. Scofield
knew about mechanical drill
ing, but in remote Pico Canyon
nothing was possible except the
pioneer "spring-polei' method
and that operated by foot
power. . ; '
' He set a long sapling In the
"Y" of another, fastened down
- the butt and attached the drill
rope to the springy end like
the line on a fishpole. This made
a spring-pole which raised, the
drill after each stroke. But the
men sweated the drill down-
' ward with their own bone and
muscle by throwing their weight
yo heave! into a rope stir
rup which bent the pole and
dropped the drill.
That well eventually became
part of this Company and
so did the man who, by his
own force and determination,
dug it. Today one of Standard's
tankers is the "D. G. Scofield"
named ip honor of this
former oil prospector, former
president.

one of restored hope
Some stocks soared 4 or 6 points
from the early lows, giving them net
galna of 1 to around 3 after allowing
