The zoo man coolly clinched with the tiger, his only chancer and hugged him tightly to his breast, keeping the jaws out of reach over his shoulder and holding one powerful, clawing forearm away with his right hand. As man and tiger rolled on the floor, one of Wilson’s companions, found his chance and put a bullet in the tiger’s heart at close range. As the big cat fell dead to the floor, one of his clawing hind legs ripped Wilson's thigh. At the hospital, twenty-nine stitches were taken in Wilson's leg and many other gashes dressed.

Part One of the Federal Oil Conservation Board’s report to the President makes a preliminary statement of the nation’s oil resources, and suggests directions in which the industry can contribute to assured future supplies. One of the important suggestions on this program is—“ Systematic research and experiment in new methods.” To the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) this suggestion means “carry on.” Systematic research and experiment in new methods have always been a part of the program of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). v Day after day—for years—the patient work of scientific experts has gone on in the quiet of its laboratories. Chemists and other men of science 'on the staff of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) have devoted their lives to research. The Company has backed them with all the resources at its command, providing proper equipment and facilitating their investigations in every possible way. ' / The average motorist in the Middle West has known little of the men or their work. But they have helped him in ways he does not suspect. i It is due to their work in developing processes for producing gasoline by cracking, for instance, that he -is able to buy gasoline anywhere in the Middle West —any time —at a price he can afford to pay. This one achievement of the scientific staff of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has intimately affected the lives of the thirty million people of the Middle West. Hundreds of other important discoveries and improvements—far-reaching in their results—have been made in the laboratories of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). The men responsible for them have remained, for the most part, unknown to the public. They have been content to serve mankind in the name of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) quietly making their contribution to progress. Research and experiment are going on now in the laboratories of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). New discoveries and new developments are being made constantly. The suggestion of the Federal-Oil Conservation Board is virtually an endorsement of the policy of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) and an encouragement to “carry on.” * The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) will continue its work of building for the future, holding aloft the torch of jprogress, serving with all the knowledge and skill at its command the thirty million people of the Middle West. \ Standard Oil Company v ( Indiana) General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So.
