The pair left for their ad venture last April aboard the 17-foot, ogtboard Searcher, powered ty twin 35-horse-power engines, from Newport harbor. After a quick stop in San Dieo,' the Searcher was on its wy again, headed for Ensenada.

The wind-suddenly kicked up and huge waves tossed the small boat around like a toothpick. Farney and Foglino rode the crests of the giant waves and then in igller-coaster fashion came sliding down at speeds of up to 30 knots. Then one of the engines conked out. The little craft began to veer off its course. Farney managed to repair the engine in a few minutes, but the other one then went out and it had to be put back & shape in a hurry.

They used a total of 1,400 gallons of gas and 15 case of oil. Far ney and Foglino found they uld usually purchase small amounts at a time after a friendly conversation, several cigarettes and a candy bar. Farney refers to his trip rather nonchalantly, as if it were nothing much more than a Sunday afternoon cruise. "Sure it was a risk," he says.

I Medford, Oregon . - . Protection of Water Stressed Bedford Springs, Pa. 'MSci ence Sarvice)-Water, our most essential natural resource, must be protected from acid pollution from abandoned mines. Natural oxidation of the sul- furitic material associated with mining is the initial re action responsible for this acidity, S. A. Braley of the Aellon Institute, Pittsburgh, told the Society of Mining En gineers of the' American In stitute of Mining, Metallurgi cal and Petroleum Engineers hare. . ' . Secondary reactions of the initially formed acid and acid salts, with the earth and rock, ha said, can produce mine dis charges . varying from high acid content to high alfeali. Because of the many factors involved, Braley said,, there is no known universal, economi cal or practical method for the prevention of acid formation or for treatment after ferma tian. However, there are "en gineering procedures that may be used in specific cases to prevent or decrease the acid properties of m i n dis charges." . Science Measures Heat Gulf Stream Gives To Norway Washington -(Science Serv-ture of one kilogram, or 2.2 ice)- How much heat the Gulf I pounds, of water one' degree airewn jives on 10 .Norway centigrade.) .each year has been measured by a Norwegian scientist. - It is equal to the heat that' would be . produced by burn ing the amount of oil that could fill a 100,000-ton super tanker every other minute for a full year. This, northernmost country in luroje is greatly benefited by the Gulf Stream, whose warm waters sweep along the western coast and keep harbors-ice-fr all winter long. - Dr. Hakon Mosby of the University of Bergen's tGeo-j physical Institute made this approximation ; . o Norway's indebtedness' to the "Gulf Stream largely from data col lected at a weataer station in the Norwegian Sea at 86 de grees north latitude and 2 de grees cast longitude.- - These data indicated that of the .total Keat less from tha surrounding waters, 94 kilb caleries per square centimeter were given ' off to the atmo1 sphere each year.

This is as much oil as could be contained in a 100,000-ton super-tanker if it were loaded every .other minute for a full year. .. ?

Drug Tranquilizes Chickens, Turkeys Sunlmit, N.J.-(Science Scrv-ice-Calmer birds in the hen house are .predicted with the development of a tranquilizer for chickens. A new product containing reserpine, a drug used to con trol high bloSl pressure and other human ills, has been de veloped by CIBA Pharmaceu tical Products, Inc.,, here. Added to the chickens' feed in very low concentrations it is said to help the chicken withstand stress. Treated chickens had a higher survival rate and pro duced more and higher quali ty eggs than did hens on a standard diet. They also are aot bothered as much by crowding, social maladjust ment, temperature extremes and disease. CIBA researchers claim the product is also economic be cause feed waste is reduced; The sedate treated chickens scratch less food out of the feeder and onto the ground. Turkeys were included in the study. The drug is saM to help control ruptured aorta, a deadly affliction of turkeys.
