murky waters that envelop the 172-
foot ship like a dense fog.
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.

Program against
smoking ended
Lotted Preu loternebooel
ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. — In one of his last acts as Health,
Education and Welfare Secretary, Joseph Califano agreed to end a
controversial program in which his department subsidized employees
to participate in anti-smoking programs. 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.”
