To observers peering out of tiny portholes in a small research sub marine, schools of amberjack provide the initial signal that the Monitor is close by. Suddenly the armor-plated sides of the Monitor appear, clearly indicating the sever ity of the vessel’s death plunge dur ing a New Year’s Eve storm in 1862. The Monitor landed upside down. Its revolutionary revolving turret separated from its bronze support ring and slid aft. A large section of the Monitor’s 5-inch-thick belt of side armor rests atop the tur ret, suspended a few feet off the shell-littered floor. The bottom of the ship’s iron- plated hull, now face up, has buck led in some sections and is missing in other areas, with only the iron beam skeleton remaining. The sides of the ship, however, appear sur prisingly intact. Although water visibility Tuesday was only 15 or 20 feet, the precise maneuvering of the 22-foot, four- man Johnson SeaLink II research sub provided a closeup look at the entire vessel. Accompanying the submarine on its slow cruise around and above the Monitor was the grouper nicknamed Sam. Diver Bill Bond said the fish. estimated to weigh 100 to 125 pounds, has been seen at the wreck for two years. At one point the fish seemed to gaze into the lighted cabin of the sub as its occupants peered out. The Monitor was discovered in 1973 by a team of researchers from Duke University. It was photo graphed extensively in 1977, and two weeks ago divers began the first detailed study of the federal ironclad. The project is a joint effort by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Harbor Branch Foundation of Fort Pierce, Fla., and the state of North Carolina. Divers operating from this sub mersible and a sister ship, both de veloped by Harbor Branch, are con- cetrating on a 5-foot section of the ship’s belly. They are slowly remov ing several feet of sand to reach the ship’s officers’ quarters and the cap tain’s stateroom furnished with black walnut chests. Divers so far this month have picked up a mustard bottle bearing the inscription "U.S. Navy,” and a wine bottle of undetermined origin. Next to the wreck is a waterlogged orange crate and divers also report finding bits of plastic on the sea floor, evidence of more recent pol lution. CE is ent Now Better Than Ever.

Sen. Walter Huddleston, D-Ky., said Tuesday. Huddleston and Sen. Robert Morgan, D-N.C., have been trying to get the program halted since it first was revealed several months ago by a Washington newspaper. The department informally agreed to drop the program several weeks ago, but refused to put it in writing — as the senators insisted — until the final days of his secretaryship. ‘This was the kind of excessive zealousness that annoyed and angered tobacco state congressmen,” Huddleston said. "I believe he clearly exceeded his authority in order to pursue his private crusade against smoking.” SHUGART COUPON SAT.
