. Bulletin of the United States Geological Survey--The Santa Clara Valley, Puente Hills and Los Angeles Oil Districts. dng the ridge between Coldwater and Pinecanyons. The pitch of the axis of this syncline is toward the east,the strata becoming successively higher as distance in this directionis gained. This fold is the most prominent lying between the mainTopatopa anticline and the series of folds which pass across theouter hills of this mountain mass. On account of the unusual structural position of the Kentuck wellsa sketch of their location with reference to the axis of the synclineis given in fig. 6. Although they are identified with the synclinalstructure it might be said that those on either side of the axis areon the corresponding slope of the adjacent anticline, and perhaps. Scale100 200 300 400 soo feet Fig. 6.—Sketch map showing location of Kentuck group of wells in syncline in Sespe red beds. Heavy-dots, productive wells; circles, dry wells. Lines indicate outcrops around syncline. Figures referto numbers of wells or to dip of strata. this is the true way in which to regard them. Although the syn-cline is a prominent fold, it is, nevertheless, like the adjacent Ivers,Coldwater, and other anticlines, subordinate to the great anticlineof the Topatopa Range, and the effect of the local structure may belost in the general position which it occupies on the flanks of the farbroader fold. It seems to the writer to be only in some such wayas this that the presence of oil here and elsewhere along the axes ofminor folds and even faults in this region can be accounted , it is worthy of note that along portions of its lengththis syncline, as well as the adjacent folds, is so compressed that theplane of its axis is thrown past the vertical, the st
