Threat of Flood Is
Easing This Morning

Streams in this area, which had
overlooked their banks in low
areas yesterday began to rcccdc
this morning, relieving the
anxiety of business men of Oak
land
The Little Youghioghcny river
had reached its crest by carly eve
ming and Wilson Run which had
been flowing freely, was about a
foot from filling the available
space in the tunnel under Second
street and the Garrett National
Bank building. A portion of this
water was retarded by a partial
dam on Fourth street.
Some of the merchants had
moved their merchandise to higher
places to minimize their loss
should the waters get into the
buildings.
When it began to rain about
1880 last evening, the anxiety
mounted and number of persons
kept an all-night watch on the
streams. They had recedcd by
morning and there we're signs that
skies were clearing.
Darrell Wotring, county roads
supervisor, said several culvcrts
in the Savage river area, had been

Deeper Look Into
Watershed Law Is
Taken This Week
Opposition Voiced Because
Of Uncertainty As To
Cost To Landowners

A deeper look into the law sane
tioning the establishment of the
Wilson Run Public Watershed as
ISOLATION was undertaken this week
after four persons last week had
indicated their opposition.
Among those opposed to the or
ganization which was established
by the County Commissioners
after q to vote last Tuesday
are A. D. Naylor, Mrs. Homer L.
Bennett, members of the Mitchell
family and Clayton Winters.
Chief among the criticisms are
these points: There is no indica-
ton as to what the ultimate cost
might be: the law gives the Coun-
ty Commissioners the power to
levy a tax that could be collected
with the same force now used in
collection of state and county
taxes; and that the association
would have the power of con-
demnation of property.
The law involved is Chapter 58S
of the public local laws, growing
out of Senate Bill 366, an act to
provide for planning and carrying
out of works of Improvement for
flood prevention or the conserva-
ton, development. utilization and
disposal of water in watershed
areas, and for cooperating with

Oregon Sea Scouts Crew
For Cutters Long Cruise

Tied up at the end of Co. !
rinthian Yacht Clubs T dock
this week has been a trim, |
54-foot sailing vessel, an aux
iliary cutter named Duet.
Duet was sailed into port
by a crew of Sea Scouts from
Portland, Ore. They brought
her down from Essex, Conn,
where she was bought by their
skipper, the Rev. Harold Miller, |
and are bound. by way of
Florida. for the Virgin Islands.
The Scouts are seven in
number, all Is years old with
the exception of Manuel Mar
tinez, boatSwain, and Raymond
Webber, a seaman. Both are Is.
Young Quartermaster
The others are Ronald
Lappi, whom the skipper thinks
may be the youngest quarter
master in the United States,
Dennis Grote, Howard Gulley, !
James Asbury and Robert
Collier, seamen.
Also aboard are Mrs. Miller
and Mr.. and Mrs. Robert o. |
Moore. A member of the Scout |
Council in Portland, Moore will
leave the voyageurs here and
fly home with his wife.
The trip is the realization
of an old dream for Miller,
skipper of the Sea Explorer
Ship Albatross in Portland and
a sailing enthusiast for many
years.
For a long while he had been
looking for a craft of Duets
description, visiting yards in
the Virgin Islands. at Anna
polls, around New York and

Bought Boat in January
Finally he, found Duet at
Essex, Conn, and bought it
last January.
AS soon as school was out,
Miller rounded up the crew he
had selected from members Of
his Explorer ship and 'on June
IA the whole party flew to
New York where the Scouts
went sightseeing for a day or
two and then took a train to
Essex.
All crew members contributed
$40O each to the. expenses
with the exception of one who
was sponsored by the Wood
land Park Lions Club which
also sponsors the ship.
At Essex the boys went about
fitting out the vessel, scrubbing
the decks, painting the engine
compartment and bilges and
doing minor. repairs. Only
major task requiring expert aid
was stepping the big mast and
installing the stainless steel
rigging.
Miller. an Evangelical minis
ter, and his wife, a social
worker, are intensely proud of
their crew.

FISHING
Big Rock,
Marlin
Biting
By CHARLES COVELL
Outdoor Editor

Fishing prospects this
week end are as good as
anyone could hope to find
in midsummer.
Big rockfish, up to the
Maryland 15-pound limit,
are reported being caught both
trolling and eel-drifting off
Rock Hall.
Schools of pan-sized rockish
continue to range from Rock
Hall down both shores of
Chesapeake Bay. They are
being taken in fair quantities
except in some places, as at
Solomons, where porpoises pass
in such numbers that they
disrupt the fishing.
Some small blues have been
caught out of Point Lookout
as well as by boats from Cris-
field. Cobia continue to bite
off Cape Charles, the mouth
of the Rappahannock River
and the wrecks near Tangier
Island.
Capt. Sam Parks on the
Elizabeth S. took a party to
the Tangier wrecks from
Schedules Fishing Center on
Smiths Creek. The anglers
hooked six cobia and boated
four, including a 59-pounder
caught by John Browning,
jr., Is.
Two of the remaining fish
weighed "a pounds each and
the other, 4412. In addition
to young John, others in the
party, all D. c. Transit Co.
employees, were his dad, Donald
DeMarr. Irie Walling, G. E.
Saar and Nick Ellis.
Over on the seacoast, the
marlin run is in full swing
off Ocean City, Md, just in
time for next weeks Light
Tackle Club Derby. The charter
feet has been reporting catches
of from 80 to As for the last
several days.
There also are plenty of
small blues and dolphin all
along the coast although the
tuna seem to have disappeared.
Boats out of Chincoteague and
Wachapreague, Va, have re-
located some wrecks harboring
big sea bass, and founder fish
ing continues good inside the
inlets at both places.
