Scientists Probe Mystery Of What's Inside Earth " Editor's Note One of the most ambitious scientific undertakings of our time is the Mohole proj- ' ect: an attempt to find out what's inside the earth. The only science 'writer accompanying ocean re search vessels on a preliminary exploration describes the expedi tion in this first in a four-part fcries written exclusively for The ' Associated Press. By LEONARD ENGEL, Copyright, 19.")!t ABOARD RESEARCH VESSEL VEMA (API Four United States .research vessels have just com pleted the first survey for what promises to he one of the great . science adventures of the century. A hundred and fifty miles out In the Atlantic north of Puerto "Kico. they have been looking for a piace 10 arm a note tnrougn the earth's crust. The hole is expected to answer such age-old questions as what the inside of the earth is really made ', of. It will go all the way down ' to the mantle, the thick band of rock surrounding the earth's mol- - ten inner core. The drilling scheme has been ' dubbed the Mohole project be cause the hole is to pierce a layer within the earth called the Moho The Mohole will be bored beneath the sea since the earth's crust is thinner below the ocean than on land. Still, the hole will have to be several miles deep. And it will "; have to be drilled beneath miles- t deep water a feat never attempt ' ed before. , For several weeks, I have been aboard the "flagship" of the sur- , vey flotilla, the Columbia Univer- sily research ship Vema. J The Mohole survey was directed by Vema's chief scientist. Dr , John E. Nafe. The other research ships were Gibbs, from Hudson , Laboratories, a Navy laboratory . operated by Columbia; Bear, from ', the Woods Hole Oceanographic In : stitution in Massachusetts: and ', Hidalgo, from Texas A&M Col- lege. , The survey covered an area' of ,the Atlantic known as the outer ; ridge, where the water is 3'i miles ; deep and the earth's crust is near- , ly three miles thick. A possible drilling site in the Pacific off the ) West Coast is also being surveyed. ; A final decision on just where the Mohole will be drilled will be made after a six-month study of ; data. i I found ocean research fascinat ) Ing and no game for the seasick s prone, or anyone afraid to wet his t hands on deck. s Oceanographern work chiefly CHP Officer Said 'Fair' Mrs. Dixon is in Langfll Valley (orlsummer at Bly working for thejSchrroe have moved back to Bo. a week with her daughter and (am- Yancey Cattle Company.

Heavy gear must be put over the side and retrieved, and high explosives handled on pitching, tossing, slippery decks in all sorts of weather at any hour of the day or night. Since there is never a moment when data is not being gathered. everyone on board ocean research vessels works, even visitors. stood a regular daily watch in Vema's instrument lab, monitoring the depth recorder and other in strumenls. I helped move ammuni tion and manned a hydrophone or recorded shots during seismic shooting. i Vema, a 202-foot, three-masted iron auxiliary schooner, carries a party of 11 to IS scientists and technicians plus a crew of 19. For entertainment the ship has "sailor's TV" watching cloud shapes drift across the sky sun set. Good food is Vema's only creature comfort. The big difficulty for the scien tist is making his instruments work. "Unfortunately, the sea is a bit ter enemy of electronic gear," says Dr. Nafe. "It takes a day-and-night struggle to keep ocean research equipment functioning." But the knowledge to be won is of commanding importance. The oceans are a key factor in weather and climate. Geologists say that they are also a major arena for the forces that create continents, raise mountains and stir up volcanoes and earthquakes The sea is home to countless fnrms of life, past and present, not found on land. Oil and many other minerals were formed in or below the sea, and minerals abound' in the sea today both in the water itself and on and below the ocean bottom Further, stagnant ocean waters if any exist have been proposed as a solution for a pressing atomic age problem a resting place for radioactive atomic power plant wastes. CONCORD (UPI) -A highway1 patrolman was reported in "fair condition" at Community Hospital here today after spending 22 hours pinned under his motorcycle in a brushy canyon off Oakland's Sky line Blvd. Patrolman George Kallemeyn, Beauty Queen Raps Officials LONG BEACH cl'PIi- A Roman Catholic beauty said Mon day night she quit the Miss L'ni verse Contest because pageant of ficials restricted her more than the archbishop she defied by pa rading in a bathing suit. Sue Ingersoll. 20-year-old Miss New Mexico, told a news con ference: "I was not allowed to make phone calls, and people were not allowed to call me." She said this was a "much worse restriction" than the ban of Archbishop Edwin V. Byrne of New Mexico who had warned that she and her family would be de nied the sacraments if she pa raded publicly in a bathing suit. Pageant director Oscar Mein hardt said Miss I n g e r s o ll's charges were "ridiculous." "It is part of the poiicy thati we have learned down through the years to keep the girls away from certain people," he said. "As for Sue Ingersoll herself, she was given every chance to talk whenever she wanted." Meinhardt immediately named a new Miss New Mexico, Carol Jones, 23, an Albuquerque, secre tary and Sunday school teacher. She was expected to arrive to elected the new president of the i society during the business session. The program was on Africa and I the work of the church there.
