About Dicke's criticisms Acknowledging the basic role played by the connection between inertial mass and gravitating mass in General Relativity, P. G. Roll, R. Krotkov and R. H. Dicke carried out a new experiment, using modern technology, and achieved an accuracy of 1/100 000 000 000 . However, since no error is quoted and few other details of their analysis are presented, it is difficult to know precisely how the sensitivity of this part of their experiment compared with that of their more extensive work measuring accelerations to the

Timelines H ISTORICAL T IDBIT Everette Lee DeGolyer The Boy Wonder From Oklahoma, Part 2 By Ray Brown Oklahoma Geological Survey Vice President of Amerada Through Lord Cowdray, DeGolyer got in touch with two members of the Physics Department at Cambridge University in 1919. DeGolyer spent time talking with these faculty members about sound ranging studies conducted during the war. He also discussed with them the possibility of locating salt domes in coastal Texas and Louisiana with the Eotvos torsion balance and also with some form of seismograph. In addition, DeGolyer discussed these ideas with a Dr. Erb, a chief geologist for Shell. Remember that DeGolyer tried to get one of the torsion gravimeters before the war. Now he could move more aggressively toward acquiring new technology to enhance finding oil and gas reservoirs than he could when World War I was starting earlier. In the early part of this story DeGolyer met his wife, by seeking to meet the German tutor for his German class at OU. Later he met the head of the USGS by planting some beer in a nearby stream. You can imagine that his meeting with Karcher was no accident either. He was actively looking for Karcher when the two met. The two of them worked together to make geophysical history. Our next history section will discuss Karcher's early life that led to the first seismic reflection company in history and how DeGolyer and Karcher met to become partners.

By Gordon Cope The story of geophysics in Canada is a tale of many facets; the triumph of immense oil and gas discoveries and the tragedy of calamities. But most of all, it is a story of ingenuity, perseverance and inspiration. EARLY EXPLORATION The earliest discoverers of oil in North America were Aboriginal Americans, who, from time immemorial, collected the black, viscous fluid from natural ground seeps and used it for medicinal purposes. By the turn-of-the-century, however, most oil seeps had been exploited. Having learned that the low-gravity substance tended to migrate toward the surface unless impeded by a physical barrier, geologists turned to mapping structural features. One area that held great promise was Turner Valley, in the foothills of the Alberta Rockies. Many of the sediments that comprised the Rockies were porous enough to make excellent reservoirs and the thrust and anticlinal features readily apparent from mapping supplied the closure necessary for accumulation. In 1914, Dingman # 1 well produced condensate so pure that it could be fed directly into the gas tank of a Model T Ford. The rolling countryside was soon dotted with rigs, and production soon peaked at 15,000 barrels per day. At the advent of the first world war, however, demand began to exceed supply, especially as the automobile became popular. Oil companies needed a more sophisticated way to effectively and efficiently penetrate the ground and identify oil traps.
