CIoeged Drain
Repair Problems
BY HERMAN BAUM
Contributing Writer

II have been keeping the
neighborhood plumber in
business. Hardly a week
passes that my wife does not
call him to open a clogged
drain, and his charges are
outrageous. Please give me
a fast course of instruction
so that I can do some of
this work myself" P. L. A.
writes.
AnSwer-Everybody, except
the plumbers, agree that
their charges are outrageous.
I have known New York
taxi drivers who vacationed
at sunny resorts all winter,
but I have never known a
rich plumber. I wonder
what they do with all their
money!
More than the advance
course in opening clogged
drains, it seems that your
family needs to start off in
the first grade and learn the
fundamentals for not clog
ging drains.
There is no excuse for a
drain becoming clogged every
week or even every month.
The sewerage system in your
home operates by gravity
alone. There is no pressure
to force ste m a ter
through the pipes. When
you remove the Strainer from
the kitchen sink and attempt
to wash vegetable peels down
the drain, you are asking for
trouble. Waste kitchen fat
will build up thick deposits
to seal the pipe. Even soap
forms a scum that may
eventually give trouble.
You might adopt the sys-
TEN known in industry as
preventive maintenance. A
teaSpoonful of granular
drain cleaner placed in the
kitchen and bathroom drains
once a week will keep the
pipes clear of deposits and
not allow them to build up to
cause trouble.
Plumbers Friend
Every home should have
the tool known as a "plung-
er" or plumbers friend"
This is a rubber suction cup
with a handle attached.
Place the plunger over the
drain, add enough water so
that the bottom is covered
and then work the handle
up and down vigorously sew
eral times. A lavatory and
bathtub will have an over
flow opening which must be
closed by holding wet
cloth over the holes.
A chemical drain cleaner
works well but it is a slow
poke operator. Water stand
ing in the sink or lavatory
must be siphoned or baled
out and the cleaner poured
directly into the drain. Do
not ALLOW it to remain in
contact with the porcelain
as it may damage the glaze.
Do this in the evening and
allow it to work overnight,
then in the morning, flush
out the drain with fresh
water. Do not use more Of
the cleaner than the direc- q
tions suggest, as a high con-
'centration will damage cop
per pipes.
A plumbers snake" will
clear a drain when all else
fails. This is a flexible cable
that easily goes around curves
in the pipe. The end has a
barb that cuts out obstruc-
tions. A crank rotates the
cable as it is pushed through
the pipe.
The SNAKE" sold for home
use is about 10 feet long. The
professional type, which you
can rent from many hard
ware stores, is much longer
and sturdier.
Cellar floor drains gener-
ally are clogged by sand.
The best way to clean the
obstruction is to remove the
strainer cover, wrap cloths
around the end of the garden
hose to make a tight stopper
in the pipe opening, and use
the city water pressure to
force the pipe open.

Mrs. r. r. R.-Beekeepers
tell me that it is not practical
to capture a swarm of bees
that have taken up lodging
inside the walls of a house.
They must be externlinated

tor, who will use poison gas
to do the job.

For NoVices
You may think we are
singularly uninSpired because
my husband and I intend to
build an old-fashioned, two
story house: but we think we
get more for our money than
with any other plan, How can
we be sure that the builder
will construct a cellar that
will be dry? Do you have any
books that will help us avoid
the common pitfalls of home
building?" Mrs. P. j. D. asks.
Answer-A two-Story house
can be as modern as tomor-
row, If you plan it that way,
but do not be carried away
by nostalgia memories Of
childhood. You may adore a
bathtub on legs, but remem-
Der that some day you may
find it necessary to sell that
house. It is doubtful that a
prospective buyer will cher
iSh such antiques.
For a booklet on making
cellars dry, write to the Gov
ernment Printing g Office,
Washington 25, D. c., and ask
for USDA Farmers Bulle-
tin No. 1872. The price is Is

II have a ne-story house
that needs a new root. I am
thinking of raising the roof
two or three feet SO that I
can add rooms in the attic.
What precautions should be
followed in carrying this
out?" P. E. F. wants to know.
Answer - The important
feature that you should check
is the ceiling joistS of the
first floor (Which will be the
floor joistS of the new second
floor. Are they of sufficient
size to carry the weight of
the second floor? If the house
was not originally designed

WON TITLE HERE IN '56
:. = Downes Made Name
Z; In Golden Gloves

Olympic team. bus his British
nationality was Q cornplica ton,
and he finally went back ia
England after leaving the
Marines.
What was Q Britisher doing
here and in the Marines any
way ? Well. Terry's sister (now
married and living in Balti-
more, was Q trapeze artist
touring with Ringing Bros
circus. She was seriously IN
jufed in q bus accident, and
the whole Downes family came
over to stay with her while she
recuperated in Baltimore.
Terry already had done some
amateur fighting in England
and he did more in Baltimore
before joining the Marines. But
it was at Quantico that he
really got toughened up, he
admits. !. and his sluggtng. free
swinging style was q natural
for the Marines.
The Marines liked him and he
liked the, Marines. The night
he beat Sawyer here q crowd
Of Leathernecks carried him
from the arena, and today as q
pro Terry still wears gold and
red trunks-the Marine colors.
Style Brings Title
The "Paddington Express
title comes from his fast fight
ing style and the Paddington
section Of London where he was
raised.
When Terry returned to
England in 1857 he expressed
q low opinion Of British fighters
after his experience in the
United States.
British fighters would be re-
.garded as college boys in the
States" he said. I'm New York,
there are six-rounders looking
for work who could beat our
champions"
That sounded like brash talk
to British fans. but Downes
backed it by turning pro and
winning the British middle
weight title in 1858 after only
20 fights. He lost it the follow
ing year on a foul after putting
his man down nine times, but
got it back right away with q
clean knockout.
He defended his title once
last year, and in all has scored
20 knockouts in winning "a of
his 80 pro fights. His last VIC
tory was over joey Giardello in
october. and he's here looking
for the world title.

Left Fine Impression
Not so Terry Downes. He
never has. fought as q pro in
the United States. but SO i'm
pressive was he as an amateur
that he still is we'll remembered,
especially around Washington.
It was here. in the Golden
Gloves. that he made his rep
utation. He. was Q Marine sta
toned at Quantico. and fought
as a welterweight In the 1855
and '56 Gloves tournaments.
Every one Of his fights was
q corker as long as they lasted
and about half Of them lasted
hardly more than halfway
through the first round.
Terry was beaten for the title
in 1855 by Lawrence Barrett of
the Destroyer Force, who went
on to become the All-Service
champion. but he won the next
year by defeating Rudy Sawyer
OF the Destroyers in a still
remembered slugfest. q.
Close Decision
It was q unanimous decision
but close, a second round
knockdown by Downes making
the difference. Terry himself
said afterward 1t was his best
amateur fight. '
Terry won the trophy as the
best military fighter in the
Golden Gloves tourney. and de-
served 1t. Later there was some
talk Of his trying out for the
