Ladies Herald Hubbies' Action ROCK ISLAND. 111.. UP—MrJ. John T. Watkins has a reasurring word for film actress Marilyn Monroe. • We can both be proud of our husbands,’^ she said. Both Watkins and Miss Monroe’s husband, playwright Arthur Miller, were under contempt of Congress citations on "almost identical’’ charges. Early this week, the citation against Watkins, a Rock Island area labor oiganizer, was dismissed by the U. S. Supreme Court. Miller’s attorney, Joseph L. Rauh Jr., has asked that charges against his client be thrown out on the basis of the Watkins’ ruling. Both Miller and Watkins had on separate occasions refused to tell a congressional committee about persons they had known as Communists. They spoke freely about their own associations but drew the line when it came to naming names. "I just refused to answer questions about other people,” said Watkins. Tlie United Auto Workers organizer appeared before the congressional committee in 1954. Following the congressional citation, lie was sentenced to a suspended one year term and fined $500.

an erosion of the nerves of the work crews. When it’s up, the recreational facilities are covered and thousands of disappointed people $re turned aw&y, some of them having driven many miles to get to

the lake.

Since the lake is "five years old this week, you just might be interested in a few’ statistics gleaned from the Evening World files compiled since the lake was fn st started. Here are a few of many: It was the first dam and reservoir built in Indiana expressly for flood control. Tony Hulman gave Indiana $50,000 with which to buy land for recreational and forestry purposes around the big lake. That’s how come Hulman Beach was named (appropriately) Hulman Beach. The permanent pool covers 1,400 acies, but if necessary, it can be expanded to cover more than 4,800 acres to handle the run-off of flood water from 295 square miles of area. It is normally close to eight miles lung with about 35 miles of shore line at normal “pool” stage. The dam rises 148 feet above the original Mill Creek stream bed, and contains 751,000 cubic yards of dirt and stone. Its 950

feet long.

Three gates can be used to let water out of the lake through the big concrete tunnel which runs under the dam. It can pour 76,000 feet of water a second from the lake if all gates were opened all the way. The dam, reservior and immediate surrounding area covers 7,300 acres. The creation of the lake required the relocation of Indiana Road 42, removal of historic old covered bridge, construction of what now is considered one of Indiana’s most beautiful concrete bridges (on Road 42) and the moving of the Cunot Ceme-

tery.

Governor Ralph Gates turned the first spade of dirt on the project July 1, 1948. Normal lake level is 636 feet above sea level. A spillway not far from the dam would let water run out of the lake instead of going over the dam and washing it away if ever there should be such a flood as to exceed the lake’s capacity. The spillway is 300 feet wide, and water would run through it if the lake level should ever reach 704 feet above sea level. Two public entrances have been created. One is at Hulman Beach. The other is at Cunot. Boat lauching, picnicking and fishing is available at both. Swimming is confined to Hulman Beach, where life guards are on duty, a brick bath house and other facilities provide modern outing conveniences. Many private clubs or groups have been formed and located around the lake. They range all the way from small “family” units to large clubs having memberships in a few instances well iver 100. Some have real estate developments in connection. Some offer merely lake-shore boat docking facilities. A few offer more elaborate facilities, such as picnic sites, swimming, clubhouses and son on. The big lake has proven an economic boon to northern Owen and southern Putnam. Already, many fine new homes have been built in the lake vicinity. Some of them are of the year-around type, while others are for summer or weekend use only. What it may eventually develop to is hard to say. Whatever it be, it’s on it’s way there—and

fast!
