Cover: "An interesting contrast with current federal regulatory handling of the petroleum industry which has brought exploratory and development drilling to a modern day low point can be observed in the fascinating history of the Osage Indian Tribal Lands in OK. A feature story in this issue (see p12) reflects the successful results of the consistent and cooperative regulatory activities of the Osage Tribal Council in making the area one of the most prolific in the nation. The cover photo shows an early Burbank field gusher, taken April 4, 1923. Man in
raincoat, fourth from right, is Frank Phillips, founder of the Phillips Petroleum Co. Photo is published at the courtesy
of the Phillips Petroleum Co."
p12: "Osages Ready to Celebrate 70 Years of Oil". Photo
of Osage Tribal Council. Caption reads: "Osage Tribal
Council has consistently demonstrated the wisdom of wise
regulatory activities in handling its relations with the petroleum industry. Its policies of cooperation with the industry
have established Osage County in OK as one of the nation's
more profitable areas in which to explore for oil, and as a result have poured millions of royalty dollars into the tribal treasury... Seated... are nine members of the
current 10-member council. Included at the table from left: Sylvester J. Tinker, John Shaw, E.E. Cooper, George E. Revard, Charles Whitehorn (assistant chief), Paul Pitts (principal chief), Edward Red Eagle, E.E. Martin, and
George B. Smith. Not present for photo was Joe Reveette, the
other member. Standing are Howard F. Johnson, agency superintendent; John Slater, Field Solicitor, Department
of Interior; and Howard T. Ferrier, Chief of the Agency Minerals Branch. Camille Pangburn, secretary, is at the smaller table in foreground."

the discovery well in Osage County, OK, in October, 1897;"
James Bigheart, "Chief of the Osage Nation, signed on behalf
of the Osage Tribe the first lease for exploration for oil
and gas;" and Chief Fred Lookout, who "also played a key role
in developing the Osage oil lands. Article runs through
