In the last quarter of a century pol- lution ‘has spread, up and down the river, into the lahes, until there is scarcely a. major stream or body of water on this continent that is clear and clean, and pro- bably the other continents are nearly as bad, Now, having thor- oughly fouled our nests we are improving our technique and commencing the business of foul- ing. the oceans. and shorelines.

However I think that the prea-- test danger lies in the increas- ing activity among ‘the big oil companies in off shore drilling. . _No doubt there is plenty of-oil ‘down here beneath -the sea bed, and no doubt the oi! companies. are greedy hungry for bucks, but look at the mess they've already made within the last few months. Just what have they done to the California coastline and to the fish, the sea birds and sea mam- mals that lived off the shore, What is happening to the already depleted grey whales that migrate up through oi}, soaked Santa Bar- bra channel on their way North. What is happening is that already their bodies are being washed _ ashore, poisoned by the-mess.

Every ferry. on Good Friday brought scores and scores of cars, pedestrians with packs on their backs, motorcycles, baby buggies - and even five kayaks _ were toted off one ferry, each on the shoulders of two porters. The kayaks were promptly launched in the heavy seas of a nor’easter and off they went down Active Pass bobbing dan- gerously up and down in the swells. We never did learn who they were but it is presumed they were members of some club on the mainland or taybe scouts, We did get a chance to talk to the motorcyclists. There were four machines and sevencyclists ard all were heavily laden with packs and camping gear. They made their headquaeters at the head of the jetty in Sturdies Bay on the rain-drenched lawn just below Billy Kolosoff’s. They serenaded. us Sturdies Bay folk all day Friday withopen throttles and no mufflers as they: zeroed in and took off on many excursions.
