ROD AND STREAM
BY Perry Miller

In addition to. purse netting which
has been the subject of this column
recently, there is another matter of
vital interest not only to anglers, but
to every citizen, and that is pollution.
AS each year passes this condition be-
comes more threatening
The cities of the country have spent
millions of dollars in trying to meet
this problem, but up to the present
time no real satisfactory solution has
been found. Here in Washington our
sewage disposal amounts to $4,000, 600
gallons a day and a city of the size Of
New York must run into the billions
Five years or more ago this column
stated that the Potomac River was
polluted. This statement was attacked
but the Public Health Service after a
careful investigation reported that the
Potomac was highly polluted There are
a great many injurious substances flow
ing into the Potomac River which ac-
cording to the District Code are unlaw-
full
Section 901 of the District Code, De-
posits of Deleterious Matter, says: mo
person shall allow any tar, oil, ammoni-
acal liquor or other waste products of
any gas works or works engaged in
using such products, or any waste
product whatever of any mechanical
chemical. manufacturing. or refining
establishment to flow into or be de-
posted in Rock Creek or the Potomac
River or any of its tributaries within
the District of Columbia or into any
pipe or conduit leading to the same.
THE prohibition of this section is
general and unqualified, and applies
to all alike, and prevents the discharge
OF any such waste products"
The latest thing called to the atten-
ton of this column, resulting in the
killing of a large number of fish in the
Eastern Branch, was the tapping of
the sewer along the Eastern Branch, al
lowing sewerage to run down into the
marsh and into the river. This matter
was called to the attention of the Po-
lice Department and Edwin B. Hesse,
major and superintendent of police, i'm
mediately had the matter investigated.
His letter follows:
Dear Mr.. Miller:
Reference is made to your telephone
Evening star., 1928-12-19

communication of December 8, inviting
attention to pollution of the Potomac
River waters resulting in the killing of
large numbers of fish.
Il find, upon inquiry, that the Sewer
Department found 1t necessary to tap
the sewer extending along the Eastern
Branch, allowing sewerage to run down
into the marsh.
THE representative of the Sewer De-
partment informs ME that the tapping
of the old sewer was necessary that
they have made other temporary ar
rangementS at considerable expense. I
am further informed that the connec-
ton of the new sewer will, under ordi-
nary conditions, be completed this week,
thereby relieving cause for complaint.
Very truly yours.
EDWIN B. HESSE,
Major and Superintendent"
Despite Maj Hesse's reassuring letter,
Harry d. Bailey, who runs the boat
house at Benning Bridge, informed this
column that late last week conditions
were the same and that the odor was
offensive and that additional dead fish
were floating in the water. He also said
that he first noticed this condition last
September in hauling minnows. He
also said he was informed that waste
material from the yeast plant at Lang
don. D. c., was emptying into this sewer
and that many fish had received their
first and last taste of alcohol. Anyhow,
hundreds of fish have been killed by this
sewerage including bass, perch, catfish
and carp.

CHICAGO, December 10 CP).-The

HOPPE MAY ANNEX
3-CUSH|ON HONORS
Gets Chance Tonight to Win
Only Cue Crown That Has
Escaped His Grasp.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 19.-Willie
Hoppe, who, for almost quarter of a
century, has been winning billiard titles
tonight gets chance to win the only
one that has escaped him-the world
three-cushion crown.
Steady and yet spectacular, Hoppe has
stroked his way to two triumphs in the
championship round robin tournament
at Orchestra Hall, winning the right tc
meet the defending titleholder, Johnny
Layton, Sedalia, Mo-, in the deciding
match tonight.
Ralph Greenleaf,s New York, has
clinched at least tie for the pocket
billiard championship which he is de-
Tending at the two-title tournament
Victorious in his two matches, Green
leaf alone remains undefeated. Should
he be upset tonight by Frank Taberski
Schenectady, N. Y, in the final match,
the least he can get is tie. TaberSki
Pasquale Natalie and Erwin Rudolph
his challengers, have been defeated.
In meeting Layton for the title, Hoppe
has an opportunity for revenge. In the
championship tournament here last
Spring. Hoppe came to the champion
ship finals with the Sedalia fisherman,
but was defeated.
The defeat of Taberski by Natalie,
Baltimore, 81 to 125, last night, was the
upset Of the three cushion play. Con-
ceied to be the only one seriously to
threaten Greenleaf's crown, Taberski
fell before Natalie's great shots, and
was behind all the way. The upset makes
possible triple tie for the pocket bill
lard title If Taberski defeats Green
leaf and Natalie defeats Rudolph, who is
out with two defeats, the three will be
tied with two victories and one defeat
EACH.
In the final matches today and to-
night, Reiselt meets Copulos for third
place, and Hoppe clashes with Layton
in three-cushion, while in pocket bill
liards, Rudolph meets Natalie and
Greenleaf meets Taberski.
