Plan To Halt Flow Of Untreated Sewage
Chicago. (UP) — Extended programs to halt the daily flow of 5,750,000,000 gallons of untreated sewage into the nation's waterways are being launched on the interstate, state and local levels, according to the American public works association.
Stream pollution laws were strengthened recently in Mississippi, while in Texas, pollution of public waters has been made a penal offense. Local pollution surveys are being made in Texas to determine changes that are needed.
In Oregon, 64 cities now have plans for new sewage disposal plants and sewer systems. The Michigan state planning commission has accepted plans for $100,000,000 in sewage disposal projects.
The Pennsylvania anti-pollution program is centered on industrial and other urban waste. The state health department has ordered 508 cities and institutions and 352 industries to prepare plans for sewage and waste treatment.
California gave sewage disposal construction a high priority under a $90,000,000 public works construction program approved this year. Massachusetts and Minnesota strengthened their anti-pollution laws.
Dog Beats Boy To Rabbit
Swanton, Vt. (UP)—Allen Lashway trudged for hours through the woods looking for rabbits. When he finally shot one, a dog raced out of the woods, scooped up the rabbit and ate it before Lashway could reach him.
Rifle Team To Be Chosen
Intramural rifle competition will get under war again this week after a temporary layoff because of lack of ammunition.
Drawings for rifle divisions will take place at 4:15 p.m. today in the intramural office.
Buddy Young Quits Collegiate Athletics
Chicago. (UP)—Buddy Young, Illinois' speedy Negro halfback, was through with school today and ready to disqualify himself for intercollegiate athletic competition, but he was uncertain of his professional future.
"I might not play professional football at all," he said.
Buddy will leave for Los Angeles tonight as the first step in relinquishing his two remaining years of eligibility for college sports. He said he would play in the professional all-star football game sponsored by heavyweight boxing champion Joe Louis, at Los Angeles Sunday. Such action would automatically make him ineligible for further college play.
"After that game, I'm coming back to Chicago, and I might just stay here," Buddy said.
"I don't know whether I'm ready for professional football. I mean mentally ready," he continued. "Of course, if some professional club offered me a contract, I'd have to look at it. I'm a poor man. I've got a wife and family. But it's up to the professional teams to decide if I'm ready."
"All I'm interested in is getting regular financial support for my family," he said, "and I can't do it on $20 a month."
Baseball Hall Of Fame Admits Four Players
New York. (UP) - Baseball's Hall of Fame opened its doors to modern-time players for the first time in five years and admitted pitch-crew Clyde Hubbell and Robert (Lefty) Grove, catcher Gordon (Mickey) Cochrane and infielder Frankie Frisch.
The four players were selected in the seventh annual poll of the Baseball Writers' Association of America in which each candidate required 75 per cent of the vote of 161 veteran members. Only writers of 10 years' membership in the association were allowed to vote and were confined to players of the era since 1921. No player who was active on the field during 1946 was eligible.
Of the four, Hubbell, former star southpaw pitcher of the New York Giants, received the most votes, being named on 140 of the 161 ballots cast.
University Of Wisconsin Students Attend Classes In 34 Different Towns
Madison, Wis. (UP)—The University of Wisconsin, its Madison campus crammed to capacity by an out-sized postwar enrollment, is drawing dividends on a pioneering extension network that has helped bring higher education to 34 Wisconsin cities and towns.
"We're achieving complete coverage of the state and at the same time pretty well integrating off-campus activities with those at the university itself," he explained.
From industrial Milwaukee to outlying rural centers., 5,200 university
From industrial Milwaukee to our students are attending freshman and sophomore classes in high schools and vocational and county normal schools, and they're being taught by a faculty of outstanding caliber.
Lorentz H. Adolfson, director of the university's extension service, says the state's experiments in educational decentralization have already begun to pay off.
Adolphon claims that the advantages of having good housing and better eating conditions more than makes up for the so-called glamour of the Madison campus. Evidence that he is right comes from students in Milwaukee who recently drew
The director expects some changes in the 1947 program. Admitting that class centers in larger cities have proven markedly more successful, Adolfson says there may be some consolidation in the fall, but he points out that enrollment is expected to jump to 6,500 at the same time.
One of the most successful features of the extension experiment is the system which rotates faculty specialists through as many as three centers during the course of a semester.
hestian permission from university officials to study a third year at the extension center before coming to Madison for final degree work.
Final proof that the system really works, says Adollison, is the unquestioned acceptance of its students from California to Harvard.
Washington. (UP)—Today, for the second time within a week, sports promoters and players found themselves the target of a clean-up suggestion by J. Edgar Hoover, with the added proviso that sports writers should aid in the drive.
Sport Promoters Are Target Of Cleanup
Hoover, director of the FBI, told a committee of sports writers to give merceries publicity to professional promoters and players who show greater interest in the gate receipts than in sportsmanship.
The committee spearheads a national drive by sportswriters and radio sportscasters to reduce juvenile crime by turning the interest of young Americans to sports.
"Nothing shakes a youth's idealism more than when a scandal rocks the world of sports," he said. "You should turn the spotlight on those sports where promoters and participants have not been living up to the standards of fair play."
Last week he told all sports to put their own house in order or the public would do it for them, aroused by recent revelations of attempted ribery in professional football.
"Too much interest in the take at the gate and too little interest in their responsibility to the public is being shown by owners, manager and players," he continued.
Blanket Of Lava Covers Much Of Northern U.S.
Chicago. (UP)—A great series of lava flows in the earth's crust more than a billion years ago now deeply cover nearly 2,000 square miles of the northern United States, a geologist reports.
The blanket of volcanic rock extends from Duluth, Minn., northward along the western shore of Lake Superior to the Canadian border, according to studies made by Dr. Robert M. Grogan, of the Illinois geological survey.
Grogan said at least 70 separate lava flows have been found in the area, with a total thickness of as much as 3,200 feet.
Bradlow Receives Research Scholarship
H. Leon Bradlow, graduate student in chemistry at the University, has received a fellowship from the United States public health department for research in organic chemistry on public health problems. The grant is for $2,400 for the year beginning Feb. 1. Bradlow's work done under this grant will be counted toward a doctor of philosophy degree in chemistry.
Bradlow, whose home is in Philadelphia, has just completed two projects under the H. P. Cady fellowship, which he has held for the past year.
Prof. Calvin A. VanderWerf has directed Bradlow's research and will continue to under the new grant.
Women Save Warehouse
Portales, N.M. (UP)—Thanks to the keen eyes of someone in a group of 14 (count em) New Mexico College sorority sisters in college (that's right) car, a large feed warehouse was saved from heavy damage in a fire. The girls reported the blaze in time for it to be brought under control.
