After several vain attempts, a
great menace to navigation has been
removed from the Saco river. Last
winter a large box was filed with
stones and this, weighing several
tons, was used as an anchor on the
ice during the winter for construc-
ton work. When the ice went out
in the spring this box fioated down
for distance on a cake of ice, but
became lodged near Cow island and
went to the bottom of the river when
the ice melted. This has been a
menace to navigation all the year
and, although buoy had been plac-
ed above it, many of the smaller
power boats which commonly use
the channel branching from the
main channel to the clubhouse of
the Saco Yacht club were in danger
of striking the box of rocks. Roy
Ridlon, Melvin Ridlon and Eugene
(Schemer) Johnson of Biddeford
have finally taken this box out of
the channel, aided by the unusually
low run of tides which have pre-
vailed lately.
