WORKERS SUBDUE MENACING GUSHER
OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. 19 — (UP) — An unruly oil and gas gusher, which threatened destruction to a densely populated industrial section of Oklahoma City when it broke connections today and blew wild, was shut in early tonight.
The wild well, with daily production of 60,000 barrels of oil and 50,-000,000 cubic feet of gas, was brought under control when a 3,000 pound "Christmas * tree,” a huge steel cone, was jabbed into the volcano of oil and rock to gradually shut off its flow.
Shutting in of the gusher once again brought a feeling of safety to the 700 residents of the section. The air still was filled with a fine mist of brown crude petroleum, however, and firemen maintained their guard against fire.
The well, situated almost within a stone’s throw of downtown skyscrapers, is the fifth producer to blow wild in Oklahoma City’s urban section since opening of the great Flush Held here.
Damage done will total many thousands of dollars.
