SQUAW VALLEY SCENE A picturesque scene is caught
at Squaw Valley, Calif., site of the VIII Winter Olympic
Games. An Olympics skier goes cross country as he heads
for the slopes and another day of practice. At right a snow
plow starts the day by clearing off excess snow that fell
during the night. The icicles give testimony to the low
temperatures. (UPI Telephoto)
Pennsylvania produced 60
million tons of bituminous
coal in 1957.
The average traffic sign can

Many Unusual Features
Of Ocean Off Oregon
Coast Are Reviewed
Corvallis-The vast expanse
of ocean off the Oregon coast
looks flat as the rangclands
of eastern Oregon but in re
ality hides peaks and depths
that equal any of the state's
mountains for size, according
to an Oregon State college
oceanographer.
After noting the record 7
mile ocean bottom dive made
in late January by U.S. Navy
scientists in the Marianas, Dr.
Wayne V. Burt put together
some little-known facts on the
ocean floor off Oregon.
About 300 miles west of the
mouth of the Columbia, he
pointed out, is Cobb Sea
mount. More spectacular than
Mt. Hood, it rises from the
ocean floor 9,000 feet below .
within 90 feet of the surface.
Canyon at Mouth
There's a canyon outside
the mouth of the Columbia
too. Its steep sides drop some
2,000 feet in one mile and the
canyon known as Astoria
Canyon - is 4,000 feet deep.
Forty-five miles off Tilla
mook on the slope where the
coastal shelf slants off into
deep water, mountains com
parable to Mary's Peak are
found.
The ocean floor itself has a
rather gentle slope in the
deep water off Oregon. Burt
noted. The ocean "shelf ex
tends out most places about
20 miles with water only
about 600 feet deep. Then,
the shelf breaks off and slopes
rapidly down to depths of
1,000 fathoms, or 6,000 feet
in the next 30 miles. About
400 miles off the coast, the
bottom is 2,000 fathoms or
12,000 feet down.
'Drop in Bucket'
What's known about the
ocean off Oregon though is
"only a drop in the bucket"
of the great unknown, Burt
said. OSC oceanography re
search started six years ago
represents the first compre
hensive studies ever made of
Oregon's 350 miles of coastal
water - fourth longest coast
line of any state.
When the new $250,000 OSC
oceanography research vessel
is built late this year, the way
will be open to new and de
tailed findings, Burt added.
Funds for the vessel came
from the Office of Naval Research.
