I just had an old washing machine disconnected in a house I am upgrading.  The house was built in the 50s and the washing machine drain (1") was connected to another black rubber drain hose (about 1 1/4) which is buried in the dirt under the crawl space.  I found the other end of that drain about 50 ft from the house down a hillside.  The house has a septic system, but the washing machine bypasses that system.  There are no restrictions preventing this type of drain in this area.  I want to have a standpipe inside the laundry room.  How do I connect the PVC material back into that old black rubber 1 1/4 hose?
