MEMBERS OF THE ARSON investigation class, shown here,
will use a house in the Lacey area this month in a part of the
class. Fires will be set in the house by several different
methods and the students will then attempt to find out what
caused them. On the right in the picture are Jim Brown,
assistant chief of the Vancouver Fire Department, who is
teaching the class, and Shelton Fire Chief, Allan Nevitt.

College Program
A Shelton graduate student at
Eastern Washington State College,
lan E. Wilder, is among more than
200 who have been admitted to
the professional education
program at the college.
Dr. Roland B. Lewis, EWSC
professor of education and
director of the professional
admissions program, said
admission is a pre-requisite to
advanced education courses.
Undergraduate students Inust
have completed at least their
sophomore year to be admitted;
graduate students working for
teaching certificates must also be
admitted.
Wilder, son of Mr. and Mrs. F.
D. Wilder, Shelton, is a graduate
of Coulee Dam High School.

right, proper feeding, preventing
problems and a concise
description of the species and
hybrids giving their color, time of
blooming, hardiness and growth
pattern. This graphically
illustrated survey of "The King of
Flowers" can be appreciated both
for its beauty and its information.
"Rhododendrons of the
World" by David G. Leach is a
definitive book on the subject. It
covers planting, care, diseases,
propogation, forcing, green house
culture and hardiness. This is an
invaluable reference for anyone
interested in the culture of
rhododendrons.
''The Rothschild
Rhododendrons" traces the
origins and development of this
great garden and has a
classification of all the Exbury
Rhododendrons. This beautifully
illustrated volume was a gift of
the Shelton Chapter of the
American Rhododendron Society
in 1968 and is a significant
addition to the Library's
collection of horticulture for
Northwest gardeners.
These are some outstanding
examples of the Library's stock of
gardening books which can be of
use to you in identifying and
raising the spectacular Washington
State Flower.

Recreation lakes afflicted
with mounting pollution
problems can be saved if proper
control techniques are promptly
applied, according to a
Washington State University
sanitary engineer and biologist.
Water quality surveys
conducted by the WSU College of
Engineering Research Division
show that several Northwest lakes
are currently in deep trouble, the
speaker said.
"Whic would indicate, among
other things," said the biologist,
Dr. William H. Funk, "'that the

there are thousands of them -
have got to go. This is one of the
great offending contributors to
lake pollution."
Funk and Dr. Surinder
Bhagat, sanitary engineer, were
speakers at a seminar sponsored
by the WSU Department of Civil
Engineering and Environmental
Science Program.
Research has been able to
define the nature and extent of
lake pollutants, Bhagat said.
Positive recommendations toward
an ultimate cure of the pollutant
situation are then made.
"This can indicate several
courses of action, from switching
to confined sewage systems,
dredging or installing new
channels," he said.
Several years ago, Bhagat said,
the Port of Vancouver, and other
organizations in Clark County
began thinking of developing
Vancouver Lake and its
surrounding flatlands of some
10.000 acres.
"There was the question of
whether the 2.600-acre lake might
be functioning to some extent as
a sewer lagoon for contaminations
entering by way of Lake River,"
said Bhagat, principal investigator
of a study supported by the
Federal Water Pollution Control
Administration.
Results of extensive water
quality surveys of the Vancouver
crl
Lake system have indicated that
the organic and inorganic
nutrients, as well as the
bacteriological pollution levels,
are excessive, he said.
From a biological standpoint,
"the lake will hardly support any
game fish today," Funk said.
Major sources of pollution to
the lake are the Burnt Bridge
Creek. several boat moorages, and
run-off from farm and pasture
land. The large, shallow lake was
found to be fairly stagnant for
lack of through-circulation.
Bhagat said the "water quality
of this strategically-located body
of water can be improved if the
sources of pollution are stopped,
and if the adjacent Columbia
River can be utilized in part to
provide a necessary water
circulating system for the lake."
''Currently, we are
investigating the optimum size
and the geometry of a channel
that will connect the south end of
Vancouver Lake with the river,"
he said.
Both researchers agreed that
the existing quality of water is
not suitable for recreational uses
of the lake system.
A man should never put on
his best trousers when he goes out
to battle for freedom and truth.
