nothing to indicate the age-the

drawn to the Potomac River re-
Gently by several happenings that
have appealed to the public. The
Associated Press pictures of the
"snagging" of Nmyriads of fish
ascending the river to spawn;
wide publicity given the opposition
being developed by the Izaak Wal
ton League to power development
on the river; the appeal to WPB
for funds for research work in
retaining the industrial wastes
that now pollute the river; and the
search for the body of a woman
drowned several weeks ago.
Hundreds of Montgomery resi-
dents join others from Virginia
and the District of Columbia in
the sport of fish "snaggin" in the
Potomac near Chain Bridge each
spring when the river is teeming
with fish struggling in the age-old
urge to reach the waters in which
they were spawned. Along the
last of April and the first of May
the shad, perch, and herring were
SO thick in the swirling water that
fishermen with poles and graphing
hooks pulled them out by the
thousands.
The Jagged, granite rocks along
the river edge was lined with men,
boys and few women and almost
as many could be seen on the Vir-
ginia side at the foot of the brown
stone palisades the day the picture
above was taken. Many others en-
joyed the sport by "kibittzing''
from the bridge rail. A number
Of countians salted down their
catch for winter use, as is their
custom when the run" is good.
The Rockville Chapter of the
Izaak Walton League really start
ed something far reaching when
they included, in their recently
adopted seven point conservation
program, the development of recre-
ational features. of the Potomac
and opposition to the proposed
postwar power dam. Tom Wal
lace, editor of the Louisville Times,
a member of the executive board
of the Izaak Walton League of
America, is lending a hand in a
picturesque flow of words.
In a recent address at a South
Atlantic regional meeting Of the
National Council of State Garden
Clubs, Mr.. Wallace asked inter-
vention by the ladies to prevent
what he called "irreparable, meal
culable damage" to the Great Falls
Of the Potomac River "by dam
crazy engineers" reported consid-
ering the. spot for a power dam.
No other country, he said, pos
sesses at the outskirts Of its capi-
tai a natural scene comparable to
Great Falls. "Only babarians Or
bobos" he is quoted as saying,
would want to destroy such
beauty. Barbarians, he explained,
are people who may get doctors
degrees from six colleges yet not
possess true culture. Bobos, are
in the Spanish language, people
without gumption.
