. Fishery Lab Designs Fishway
For Dam on Potomac River
Biologists at the U. S. Fishery
Ubora ory are now in the process
of designing a "fishway" to help
fish jump the Little Kalis Dam on
- the Potomac River, two miles
above Washington, D. C.
the fish are 8'ven some
help they can t get into the upper
reaches of the river to spawn. The
ItSJL*i$UK " White shad
striped bass, produce young in
onlan water, then return to the
Unless some means is found to
help the fish on their journey to
the spawning grounds, biologists
point out that the supply of com
mercially valuable fish may dwin
die.
The fishway which is recom
mended for the Little Falls Dam
is known as a Hells Gate vertical
baffle fishway, announces G B
Talbot, director of the Beaufort
lab. This type was first developed
by the International Pacific Sal
mon F ishcries Commission for use
on the Frascr River in British Co
lumbia, Canada.
Since then many installations of
this type have been used on the
Wjst Coast and have proven to
be very effective, Mr. Talbot said.
Their chief advantage is that they
are self-regulating in relation to
water flows and, therefore, require
less attention than other types of
fishways.
In adapling this fishway to the
Little Falls installation it was nec
essary to study time of fish runs,
with past records of water eleva
tions above and below the dam at
the time of the runs. These data
determine the elevation of the fish
way and the maximum and min
imum water levels at which it
should operate, explains Mr. Tal
bot.
Another vital factor is that the
fish must be able to locate the en
trance to the fishway. For this
reason, it is necessary to design
an attraction channel with auxil
iary water supply for this particu
? lar location. Model studies at the
Beaufort laboratory arc being used
for this purpose.
Staff members at the Fishery
lab working on the project, in ad
dition to Mr. Talbot, are C. H
Walburg, project leader for shad
studies; James E. Sykes, project
leader for striped bass studies; and
research biologists K. J. Fischler
and Paul R. Nichols.
Claude Guthrie, superintendent
of buildings and grounds, is respon
sible for construction of the scale
model. The laboratory will closely
follow the completion of the fish
way and will determine its effec
tiveness when completed, Mr. Tal
bot says.
The actual fishway will be con
structed by the Corps of Engineers
from designs provided by the fish
ery lab Little Falls Dam will pro
vide water for the nation's capi
tal.
During the past several years
the U. S. Fishery Laboratory has
been requested to furnish designs
or consult on fishways in several
of the Atlantic Coast states. These
include projects in Maine, two
fishways on the Connecticut River,
and the Goldsboro project on the
Neuse River in North Carolina.
Admitted to Hospital
Mrs. A. E. Williams, Greenville,
was admitted to Morehead City
Hospital Saturday after she injured
her leg while visiting her sister,
Mrs. Hugh Styron, Mitchell Village.

? To get county streams effective
ly cleared of hurricane debris the
county has re-submitted an appli
cation for Civil Defense stream
clearance funds.
The application was taken to
Raleigh Friday afternoon by Gray
Hassell, Beaufort engineer, who
has been making the estimates and
filling out applications for the
county.
The whole thing is a complicated
mess.
First of all, the Army Corps of
Engineers estimated that only
$52,000 was needed to clear
streams in this county.
This money was to be used to
remove logs and debris from six
miles of Newport River, four miles
at the head of North River and
about a mile in Gibbs Creek.
Bids were requested. The low
bid for work in this county was
$15,200 from Dickerson, Inc., Mon
roe, N. C. The next lowest bid was
$44,000! Persons familiar with the
streams say that a contractor
can't even move his equipment in
to Carteret streams for $15,000,
much less do the work the way it
should be done. Dickerson now has
the contract.
The Army estimate on North j
River, Newport River and Gibbs
Creek clearance was $46,000.
Now, to understand the next
snarl, you must go back to the
law Congressman Bonner had pas
sed by Congress. That was a bill
appropriating six million dollars
for repair of hurricane damage
in 21 eastern Carolina counties.
The bill was passed with the
hope of by passing the red tape
connected with public law 875
which makes communities stick
only to "temporary repairs."
Civil Defense then turned the
stream repair job over to the
Corps of Engineers. The Corps of
Engineers apparently was not in
terested in handling the work.
After a "survey," the engineers
claimed that the 21 eastern Caro
lina counties needed only slightly
over a mllion and a half dollars
to make stream repairs.
At that. Congressman Bonner,
Gov. Luther Hodges and Gen. Ed
ward Griffin got in touch with
Battle Creek, Mich., national CD
headquarters. Civil Defense told
them to re-submit applications.
So everything started all over
again. The application Mr. Has
sell took to Raleigh Friday re
quests $245,743.10 from CD. This
money is to be used (if it can be
obtained) to completely clear New
port River, from headwaters to
the mouth and numerous small
creeks which flood Carteret farm
land, including Russells Creek,
Sleepy Creek, Chad wick's Creek
and many others.
What will happen when this gets
turned over to Army engineers no
body knows.
Mr. Hassell look with him to
Raleigh, with the new application,
13 letters from residents of the
Newport area urging that the gov
ernment help clear Newport River.
Agriculture leaders and officials
connected with the entire project
arc thoroughly discouraged.

Firemen Answer
Three Alarms
Beaufort firemen answered three
alarms Saturday and Sunday. They
put out a graaa fire behind Hunt
ley's; gave an assist on a fire at
the Standard Products Co. fish fac
tory on Lennoxville Road; and put
out a fire which had already burn
ed the roof of Rufus Fair's house
on Cedar Street
The graaa fire Saturday morning
was put out before damage was
caused. The fire at the fish factory
Saturday afternoon was in the fish
drier Scrapa of fish were on fire,
but the drier, a large metal tank,
kept the fire from spreading.
The fire waa under control by
the time the firemen arrived.
Flames shot some 40 to SO feet in
the air, and there was some danger
that the building would catch on
fire.
Mr. Fair's roof caught fire Sun
day morning when sparks blew out
of the chimney. Firemen put the
fire out before the house was burn
ed down, but It was reported by
them to be in "bad shape."
The Morehead City fire depart
ment waa called to the United Van
Linea on Evana Street Sunday
afternoon to put out a trash Are.
No damage resulted from the fire.
? The Hawaiian Citizen, stalled 10"
days at the Morehead City port
because of the longshoremen's
strike, sailed late yesterday after
noon for Gulf ports and will pro
ceed to the South Pacific and Ja
pan.
The ship was loaded with 700
hogsheads of tobacco Sunday and
400 more were loaded yesterday.
This is the first fumigated tobacco
cargo to leave Morehead City.
The strike, which froze in port
200 ships from Maine to Texas,
temporarily ended Sunday with the
federal government's injunction
under the Taft-Hartley law. This
puts longshoremen back to work
for 10 days.
Before that time expires, the
government will ask that the order
be extended for 70 more days, a
"cooling off" period provided by
law. Meanwhile negotiations be
tween the shippers and the Inter
national Longshoremen's Associa
tion continue.
Points of dissension have been
scope and length of contract
Wages, according to the Associated
Press, are not a major issue.
J. D. Holt, port manager, re
ported yesterday that the Jeffer
son Maersk is now expected here
about Dec. 8 to take on tobacco;
the Nabob, Hamburg - American
ship, about Dec. 9 to take on to
bacco and perhaps fish oil and
logs; and the Tsuneshima Maru
about Dec. 12 to load tobacco for
Japan.
