Ohio Oil seeks 15000 bonus for Cheyenne County discovery
State Senator Ray Babcock disclosed that Ohio Oil Co plans a $15,000 bonus for discovering the first producing oil well in Cheyenne County. The company may contribute the money to Cheyenne County Memorial Hospital if a hospital bond passes. The claim rests on the May 1949 East Gurley field discovery, under a 1939 law later debated by the 1951 legislature.

Oil Controls Are Proposed For State Oil Regulation
The State Geologist would gain powers to register oil and gas activity and require safety measures without forcing production. LB 433 would compel bond posting for dry or abandoned wells, require seasonable production records, identify well ownership, and require copies of well logs. Dr Geo E Condra heads the Conservation and Survey Division at the University of Nebraska. Senator Ray A Babcock opposes tax hikes and heavy regulation, arguing it could hinder exploration and erode a growing industry. The bills were introduced by senators in response to a 1949 oil boom and the legislative committee study.
