OIL FIELDS SOLVE FUEL*
PROBLEM IN EGYPT
CAIRO, Egypt, June 19.—The fuel
problem In Egypt, which at one time
threatened to cause the most serious
hardship to the whole country, has
been largely solved, says, the annual
report of the government’s financial
adviser, Sr William Brunyate, by the
development of the Red Soa oilfields
and the adaptation of machinery to
produce gas distilled from vegetable
refuse.
The report declared that an “ade
quate supply of oil for all purposes"
should shortly be available. The Hur
dada oilfields, for example, although
only discovered in 1914, is now yield
ing 15,000 tons a month.
The production of gas from vege
table refuse, which is now being
pushed on a large scale, was due to the
researches of Dr. J. A. Wells, former
inspector-general of the mines depart
ment of the Egyptian government.

MELBOURNE, June 19.—An Aus

ZIMMERMAN KIDDED
ABOUT FAMOUS RACE
Fans Yelp About Collins, but
Heinie Takes It Easily.
Bronx Idol Receives Bombardment
From Bugs in Stand, but Fails to
Show Any of Fussy Stuff Ho
la So Well Noted For.
Players on both the Giants and
White Sox teams will tell you It wasn’t
all Heinie s fault,
but that doesn't
make any differ
ence to the fans.
Yes, we have
reference to that
now famous epi
sode of the 1917
world’s series,
when Helnie the
Zim hot-footed it
down the third
base line after
Eddie C o 111 ns,
gripping the pill
firmly in one mitt
while Eddie
crossed the plate
with the run that
dashed Giant
hopes into the
depths of despair.
After it was all
Heinle Zim.
over somebody asked Zlm about the
play, and he very manfully took
ail the blame, despite the fact
that he had an alibi In the state
ments of some of the players them
selves. But that one play will be re
membered as long as Fred Merkle’s
failure to touch second, and all because
It happened In a world’s series. Had
It occurred in an ordinary everyday
game of ball it would have been forgot
ten, and that’s the rub.
When the Giants started their exhi
bition t6ur In Texas this spring the
bugs of the Lone Star state greeted
Zlm the first time he stepped to the
platter to bnt against an outside team.
And the greetings had to do with Ed
die Collins.
Evidently Zlm expected It, and,
strange to say, he failed to show any
of the fussy stuff for which he has
long been n cited. He merely ham
mered the plate with his bludgeon and
proceeded to slam out a home run.
When the National league sOiisofr
opened Zim expected a verbal bom
bardment. And he got it. Whut’s
more, he will probably be a target for
lots of kidding during the present sea
son until the novelty wears off. But
Zim muy play better ball for all of It.
He has made up his mind that no fan
is going to take his mind off the game,
and he has his eye on the National
league batting championship for 1918.
