which earlier had shown oil stains
in a five-foot core recovery.
Following the drillstem test in

where they shut down and began
"ireulrting preparatory to run-
ning the electrical log.
This action indicates plans now
are to plug back the hole and test

intrusion found at 5,198-5,209
feet. No official announcement,
however, has come from the com-
pany officials as to future plans
for the well.
At bottom depth today the well
was drilling in white sand.
