Dry Hole In Quest For Gas Near Oberlin
A dry hole was drilled by W. Dempsey of Lakewood on the Mat Wohleber farm in Russia township about two miles northeast of Oberlin. The well reached about 2400 feet. If gas had been found, sales were planned to the Ohio Fuel Gas Company. Oberlin businessmen, seeking a lower gas rate, will persist with plans to supply Oberlin from its own back door, says Ira Porter, banker. The group holds about 2500 acres under lease around Oberlin and is currently testing a well on the Ralph Cain property within the city. Also noted, nine former University of Wisconsin rowers—now at Green Bay rowing group—rowed at St John’s Military College.
