Moore told a public meeting cal
led by the commission that a
$260,000 study will be made of the
ship channel and bay to attempt to
forecast what would happen if all the
provisions of the water control act
are carried out.
The study will be conducted by
Bernard Johnson, Inc., of Houston.
Assisting as subcontractors will be
the College of Business, University
of Houston, to review economic and
social effects; the Marine Sciences
Institute of the University of Texas
to review the environmental effects,
and the LBJ School of Public Affairs
of the University of Texas to review
institutional effects, Moore said.
The study will use data already
collected from other historical sur
veys to attempt to chart what lies
ahead, he added.

Joe G. Moore Jr., program direc
tor of the National Commission on
J Water Quality, announced Tuesday
| that the channel and Galveston Bay
into which it flows will be one of 12
bodies of water studied by the
commission.
The commission, he said, is
charged by Congress to provide in
formation to see if the 1972 Water
Pollution Control Act should be
given “a midcourse correction” be
tween 1977 and 1983.
The law now requires that by
1977 any municipality must use a
minimum of secondary wastewater
treatment and industries must use
the best practicable treatment by
1977.
By 1983, Moore said, all bodies of
water must be safe for swimming
andean support waterlife. By 1985,
all pollution must be eliminated.
| “The creation of this commission
grew out of a disagreein en t between
the House and Senate on whether
modifications in the 1983 require
ments should be made,” Moore
said. "We will recommend to Con
gress whether there should be
mid-course corrections between
1977 and 1983.”
But Moore said he knows of no
plans to abandon the water quality
fight. “The Congress spoke of a
Pot may
increase
bust size
BOSTON (AP) — Men may de
velop fully feminine breasts from
heavy marijuana smoking, say two
Harvard Medical School surgeons.
The surgeons said they are treat
ing and studying 16 males whose
breast enlargement apparently is re
lated to smoking marijuana. They
said it probably affects both sexes.
“This effect seems to occur in only
a small percentage of people who
use the drug,” said Drs. John Har
mon, chief surgical resident at New
England Deaconess Hospital, and
Menelaos Aliapoulios, a surgeon at
Cambridge Hospital.
“It’s like digitalis, a heart muscle
stimulant which also causes breast
enlargement in a very few patients
who take it,” they said.
“So, if a woman smoked mari
juana, even heavily, she might have
one chance in 100, say, of increasing
her breast size,” they said.
The surgeons said the 16 patients
are between 18 and 30 years old and
smoked marijuana at least three
times a week. Some smoked it daily.
They said they have produced the
same results in research on male
rats by injecting them with THC,
the psychoactive ingredient in mari
juana.
The most practical treatment is to
surgically remove excess mammary
gland tissue.
The doctors said that to minimize
the condition or prevent it from re
curring, patients must stop smoking
marijuana.
