vent freezing. With the resultant water shortage the only course left open to the water company MT. Beck asserted, is to shut off the water during the night.
 During the early part of the present shortage, the water was off in residential districts from II ?. m until 5 a. m. and recently
 he hour for shutting down the supply was changed to 10 p. m. The buansss district is supplied all night, as cafes and other businesses operating must have a supply.
 By the time the water is shut off each night the reservoir is nearly empty, MT. Beck said, but in the morning it is approximately three-fourths full thus making the fire hazard greatest in the evening.
 Calling attention to the city ordinance passed August 21, 1925, which makes a person liable to a fine of $1o0 for having an open tap on his premises Mir. Beck de- clarei that If the shortage becomes more serious it may be necessary to strictly enforce this ordinance.

 In 1919 after four years with his paper and two with the Alaska Packers Association, he accepted the invitation of the University of Washington to organize and direct it's College of Fisheries, a pioneer venture. This school he made a scientific center, working out the practical and the theoretieal; solv- ing national and local problems of propagation and conservation of food fish.
 Contributed Greatly
 His work with the salmon in the Pacific Northwest; his invention of fishways and escalators to assist the fish over power dams in spawn ing season, and his electric gang ways to keep young fish out of irrigation ditches, were invaluable contributions to the industry Dean Cobb's fisheries experiments and investigations were national in scope including the Atlantic Coast, sponge fisheries of Florida, lobster fisheries of Maine and fisheries of the Great Lakes, the Pacific and Hawaii. He was member of the International Fisheries Commission appointed by the United States and Canada to regulate halibut fishing and was an expert adviser at na- t!onal and international fisheries conferences.
