(AP Wirephoto via Army radio- from Tokyo to The Electric Shock Device Cleans Mussels, Barnacles from Ships LA JOLLA, Calif- Aug. 7-WVAn electric shocking device which causes mussels and barnacles to ship owners and seashore industries millions of dollars a year. The inventor, Henry T. Burkey, a Los Angeler electrical engineer, believes that with a few adaptations his electronic apparatus will be sure death to the fouling organisms which cling to ship's bottoms and clog undersea pipes. He has already successfully tested it at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography here. The apparatus is essentially a series of vacuum tubes which gen erate timed electrical pulses in water. The pulses, too weak to electrocute the sea creatures, force them to suicide. In the case of the bivalve mus sels, the current causes their shells to snap shut Continuing pulses cause a muscular reaction which keeps them shut Death occurs when the mussel either starves or, unable to eliminate wastes, suc cumbs to auto-intoxication. In the Scripps tests all of a group of 100 mussels exposed to the pulses died within two weeks. Seventy, died within one week. Barnacles Vulnerable The single-shelled barnacles, says Burkey, are equally vulner able. They eat by fishing about in the water with tiny feelers. Pre liminary tests indicate that the pulses paralyze these feelers. Untold millions of dollars are spent annually to scrape barnacles from the- hulls of vessels ranging in size from battleships to row boats. Burkey says his apparatus can be rigged so it will both kill barnacles already present and pre vent further accumulations. He has already applied for pat ents on an adaptation of the device designed to clear underwater pipelines.

The huge pipes through which the water is drawn quickly become lined with clog ging mussels. Removal Problem A New England power station. Burkey says, removes 300 tons of shells annually from its intake lines. A San Diego plant with four by eight-foot intake tunnels found after an inspection that the intake line was coated with two feet of mussels. This reduced its amount- of salable electricity by $25,000 yearly. Systems using water hot enough to kill the bivalves, or slaughter ing them by heavy chlorination, have proved to be extremely cost ly, Burkey says. The microscopic mussel eggs, which are fertilized while they float in the water, attach them selves to some solid object after 44 hours. If they find no such ob ject they die. They cling by means of sticky threads and sa single "foot" which must be protruded. One of the many effects "of the jolts of current is to make it im possible forjthe mussels to stick this necklike foot out.
