Mrs. Getchell And
Daughter At Home
Before Departure
Mrs. Delroy Getchell and her
daughter. Miss Valerie Gloria
Getchell, of South Oakdale ave
nue, were at home Monday af
ternoon and evening to many
of their Rogue River valley
friends. Some were invited to
tea and others for cocktails later
in the evening.
Mr. Getchell and her charm
ing daughter, who win soon
abandon the role of debutante
to become the bride of Hugh
Howell, Jr., of Honolulu, T. H.,
will leave the valley Sunday for
San Francisco. Much entertain
ing is planned in the bay region
for the bride-elect by relatives
of her fiance, who will arrive
in San Francisco from Honolulu
on the Lurline July 22.
Mr. Howell has a sister and
three aunts in California. They
are Mrs. Robert C. Campbell of
Pasadena, Mrs. Seely Wilcox
and Mrs. Llewellyn Hascall of
Berkeley and San Francisco,
and Mrs. Fletcher Ames of Palo
Alto. His uncle, John G. Howell,
also makes his home In the bay
region.
Miss Getchell. too. has many
friends there, having attended
Castilleja school in Palo Alto
before entering the university
of Washington.
The wedding will be solem
nized in San Francisco late in
July, so friends who called at
the Getchell home Monday sam
their "Alohas" to the bride-to-
be. Following their honeymoon
the couple will sail for Hono
lulu.
THE SCHOOL of thought
which put egg-shells in the
coffee had a rough idea of
catalyst. Somehow, argued
practitioners, the egg-shells im
proved the brew without change
in themselves. This is what soy
catalyst does in a chemical proc
ess. As to how or why, don't
ask. It's all too close to magic
Since oil refining is simply
chemistry gone wholesale, we
long have sought to make gas
oline by some magical, cati
- lytic process meanwhile con
tinuing to make mighty good
gasoline in the usual way. So
it was natural that when M.
Eugene Houdry, French scien
tist, hit the idea jackpot, Stand
ard included itself in.
After two years of laboratory
study, we're building the first
Houdry catalytic-process plant
on the Coast a $4,500,000
Institute of Magic at our El
Seeundo Refinery, Southern
California. It will turn Califor
nia crude oil into high octane
aviation gasoline and motor
fuels both of them new and
different. ,
More and better gasoline for
planes, tanks, and motor cars
will be, of course, a proud con
tribution to-' the national de
fense. For oil can win wars.
But, shucks, we would have
done the same thing in times
of peace. Our real contribution
lies in our determination al
ways to help keep America first
in the oil world.
