TO THE RESCUE
Sirs:
The Westport Striped Bass Club of Westport, Conn. wishes to express its thanks and appreciation to SI for the interest and leadership it has shown in connection with the threat by New York's Consolidated Edison Company to the striped-bass fishery at Storm King mountain on the Hudson River.
All Connecticut striped-bass fishermen are aware of the importance of this natural hatchery to the Long Island Sound striper population. The Westport Club feels that the leadership that was lacking from the state fish and game departments was ably assumed by SI. We would like to express our thanks particularly to Senior Editors Robert Boyle and Arthur Brawley, whose unwavering tenacity kept the issue very much before the public. We would also like to commend the Scenic Hudson Preservation Conference, who have worked diligently for the cause.
The December 29 decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals, whereby the Federal Power Commission order licensing the Con Ed project was set aside, was heartening news to us. as I am sure it was to SI. Your fine magazine has proven itself a true friend of the sportsman.
