off the reel. We finally boated
him, however, and heaved a sigh
of relief. He ran well over 3l2
pounds. a nice smallmouth for
any one, and the biggest fish
caught so far.
Prescott then took to the oars
and we shortly hung a 13-incher.
AS we were playing the fish, Doc
and his wife came UP in the
Chris Graft and watched the end
of the battle. Doc jeered a little
when he saw the size of this fish,
but when we showed hum the
others, he exclaimed, boy. that's
what I call fishing 1t was a
fine wind-up of the day. In the
two hours we were out, we were
fighting fish most of the time and
who could ask for more.
We had a hard thunderstorm
during the night and it was much
cooler in the morning. We fished
hard, but the bass were out in
deep water and we did not do SC
well. The rain has made the lake
quite high, so much so that our
boat dock is partly submerged. II
also has warmed up the top water
which isn't good for shoreline
fishing. (
So far, the wind has bothered
Jus more than anything. Botf
Prescott and your scribe are f1yroe
addicts, and any one who uses 6
dyrod knows what a stiff breeze
does to pin-point casting. The
wind seems to blow from every
direction. and just when you think
you're in a lee and start to lay
out nice cast, gust hits you ir
the face and your cast winds up il
a birds nest. ....- 1851.
Tomorrow, July 4, Doc and his
wife Elizabeth. and bunch of ole
friends are coming up for the day
to picnic, shoot off fireworks and
generally have good time, so we
don't expect to do much fishing.

Gas Company Petition
Puts RATE Boost Case
Before Supreme Court

A Washington Gas Light Co.
request for a review of It's recent
gas rate increase case today was
pending before the Supreme
Court.
The Public Utilities Commis-
sion, which granted the increase
in November, 1949. also is ex-
pected to file petition soon,
asking the high court to sustain
its decision. which was over
turned by the lower courts here.
Vernon v. Baker. chairman Of
the public utilities committee Of
the Federation Of Citizens As
sociations. who led the fight
against the increase in the lower
courts, has announced he will
defend the decision favoring the
consumers.
In its petition. filed yesterday,
the gas company told the Supreme
Court the United States Court Of
Appeals was wrong in its decision
of last December 81, upholding
the District Court finding.
Increase Being Charged.
Attorneys Stoddard M. Stevens,
C. Oscar Berry and Houston H.
Wasson. on behalf Of the gas COM
pany advised the Supreme Court
in their petition: "The review Of
the decision of the Court Of APP
peals is Of Nationwide i'm
portance."
Meanwhile. under an appeals
court order. the increased rate OF
S750, 900 annually here now Is be-
ing charged Washington gas users.
But the money is being kept In
a separate fund. pending Supreme
Court action. It will be refunded
If the high court refuses to allow
the increase.
The utility's lawyers argued. in
their petition for Supreme Court
review, that the PUG properly
permitted the company to retain
in the rate base its investment in
gas plants that have been aban-
doned because of q change-over
to natural gas.
Earlier Decision Cited.
The appeals court. however, held
that, II the commission Is going
to permit that investment to re-
main in the rate base. 1t must
be offset In the rate Of return.
But the company contends that.
under earlier Supreme Court de-
cisions. 1t is up to the PUG to
decide whether this investment
should be In the. rate base and
that, once the commission makes
its decision. the courts may not
upset that decision. unless 1t is
unreasonable. The PUG granted
the increase, on the company's
pleas of increased operating costs.
Judge T. Alan Goldsborough Of
District Court made the original
ruling, upholding Mr.. Baker.
Judge Goldsborough set aside the
gas rate increase approved by the
PUG. The appeals court, by unan-
imius decision, upheld the Dis
trict Court finding.
