Hughes Tool Company, Petroleum Information : and the American Association of orpo-ratio- n Drilling Contractors reports that the count of active rigs this week in the Rockies broke the region's modern high of 302 set in November 1974. At present, 303 rigs are operating in the western State's. The bulk of activity remains in Utah's Summit County as well in the northeastern counties of Rich and Morgan. Drill rig's working in the Evanston area of Wyoming have increased in the past week. Most significant development is a new apparent discovery in the Twin Creek formation (Jurassic age) three miles southwest of Utah's Pineview field. American Quasar Petroleum reported the recovery of 4,700 feet of oil during a drQlstem test at the No. 19-- UPRR at 10,700 feet. Additional drills tem tests of deeper cones are planned. The well is 11 miles southeast of Coalville and , three miles northeast of the No. 35-- UPRR where American Quasar pumped 50 barrels of oil per day from the Twin Creek formation it a depth of 11,190 feet. The two apparently successful wells will most likely stimulate additional drilling throughout the six mile area to the southwest of the Pineview oil field. Meanwhile, four miles northeast of Evanston, Chevron Oil reports new tests Pleasant are underway st the No. Valley well. Oil flowed at the rate of 779 barrels per day during a 24 hour flow test at the apparent discovery. Gas flowed on teh test at the rate of 1.4 million cubic feet daily. Production at the well Is from the Nugget formation at s depth of 10,290 feet. Total depth is 11,083 feet. Chevron is starting drilling operations st a well just to the southwest and will drill two additional wells to the northwest and Production apparent discovery 10 miles to the northwest of the Chevron Pleasant Valley well. Amoco guaged 4.7 million cubic feet of gas daily on a test at 10,691 feet, total depth. And, more than 70 miles to the northwest in Utahs Bear Lake vicinity, American Quasar Petroleum and will begin testing shortly at the significant apparent gas well discovery, the No. 20-- 1 Hogback Ridge.

Although social welfare programs are popular, so far as vote getting is concerned, and certainly their aims are noble, but when one weighs the quicksand" effect of abuses, fraud, administrative costs, improper applications, etc., we would do well to heed the warning. You would think, at least, that the present condition of the Social Security program would indicate the hand writing on the wall. But no, we'll just stimulate this sinking social suppli-men- t by throwing more dollars into the pit. 1 northeast Tests also are continuing at the Amuro four-whe- el into a quagmire of quicksand. 1 1-- 8 Hotel, located in the new Riverfront Renaissance Center.
