Moxie
drink
turns 100
United Press International
LISBON FALLS, Maine — Cele
brations this weekend marked the
100th birthday of Moxie, the na
tion’s oldest soft drink that once out
sold Coca-Cola and was touted as a
cure for everything from impotence
to imbecility.
Even today old-timers insist the
drink with the bitter aftertaste —
now only available in New England
— can calm nerves, put weight on
the emaciated and help reformed al
coholics with thejitters.
“I was weaned on Moxie,” said
Howard Wiseman, who drove up
from Dauphin, Pa., to mark the cen
tennial of the gentian root-based
carbonated beverage that was in
vented a century ago as an elixir for
nerves by Augustin Thompson of
Union, Maine.
He first hawked it on the road as
“Beverage Moxie Nerve Food,” tout
ing it as a cure for such wide-ranging
ailments as male impotence, nervous
breakdowns and dyslexia.
Slouch
by Jim Earle
“What if Hart announces his selection of Mon
dale as his vice presidential running mate, or if Jack-
son selects Kennedy, or if McGovern runs with Car
ter .... ”
The original label said the drink
had the power to “recover brain and
nervous exhaustion, loss of man
hood, imbecility and helplessness”
along with “softening of the brain,
locomotor ataxia and insanity when
caused by nervous exhaustion.”

The original drink was not car
bonated but Thompson began car
bonating it after six years and the
nation’s oldest soft drink was born.
United Press International
In its 1920s heyday, Moxie out
sold Coca-Cola in 35 states. But the
Depression forced Moxie to cut back
on advertising and distribution and
now the drink is bottled and sold
only in New England.
KARLSRUHE, West Germany —
Detectives and zoo experts Sunday
cracked the case of the slain hippo

cated in their steam-filled pool en

day by keepers.

Block of oil lease sale nixed
United Press International
MARSHALL — A federal judge
Monday denied a request from the
state to block the sale of offshore oil
leases this week by the U.S. Depart
ment of Interior that Attorney Gen
eral Jim Mattox termed a “fire sale.”
Mattox last week filed suit to block
the sale of some 30 million acres of
offshore leases scheduled for
Wednesday in Houston, contending
the “areawide” method of the sale
reduces competition and, therefore,
revenues.
The state stands to gain a portion
of revenues from oil and gas leases
on tracts adjoining state waters.
The areawide bidding program,
begun two years ago to stimulate
drilling and domestic production,
opens an entire area — in Wednes
day’s sale the entire western Gulf,
for instance — for bidding. Any
company interested in any tract in
that 35.3 million acre area can bid on
it if it is not already under lease.
Through 22 previous sales, 4.6
million acres have been leased.
Wednesday’s is the first sale to be
held in Houston.
Previously, bidders in offshore oil
lease sales were restricted to specific
tracts, increasing competition be
cause of the limited number of
leases.
“It (the areawide method) allows
the major oil companies to, in effect,
buy the government’s land at a fire
sale and then warehouse them at rel
atively nominal prices,” Mattox said.
“We cannot tolerate a virtual give
away of our coastal resources,” he
said.
Joseph Stiglitz, an economist at
Stanford and Princeton universities,
testified for the state Monday that
the government’s methods of selling
the leases virtually assured they
would not bring fair market value
since fewer bidders participate for
specific tracts.
“There are going to be a lot of
tracts. They’re going to be selling be
low their fair market value,” he said.
The sale will be held in the Westin
Galleria Hotel and includes an area
from the stale’s territorial w
boundary 3 miles offshore to
proxiinately 220 miles offshore
tween the Sabine River
Brownsville.
Barney Congdon, a publicaftl
spokesman in New Orleans for|
Minerals Management Service-
branch of the Interior Depai
that conducts the sales — disa|
that the areawide method of
was not competitive.
“We have some 80 com]
qualified for this bidding," he
“We certainly think it is a com]
itive way of offering leases.”

A&M to outfit research ship
By MICHAEL CANNATA
Reporter
A deep sea drilling ship that may
be the most advanced in the world is
being developed by the Ocean Dril
ling Program at Texas A&M. Once
complete the ship will be used for re
search drilling in some of the world’s
deepest waters.
Dr. Philip Rabinowitz, the direc
tor and principal scientist for the 10-
year National Science Foundation
project, is sending out requests for
bids to refit the 470-foot ship
SEDCO. The oil exploration vessel
must be modified to house the scien
tific equipment nessessary for the re
search.
“We’re going to convert an oil
drilling ship into a scientific drilling
ship,” Rabinowitz says. “They’re two
different operations. Some of the
drilling is the same, but oil drilling
companies don’t collect rocks. Their
purpose is to find oil and ours is just
the opposite.”
The conversion calls for a four-
story prefabricated laboratory to be
built on the deck of the ship. The
three decks below will he gutted,
then rebuilt to accommodate the
new scientific facilities.
Rabinowitz says once the conver
sion is complete the ship will be the
most modern floating scientific re
search center of its kind. The scien
tists on board the ship will be able to
drill for core samples in waters as
deep as 27,000 feet.
The ship is expected to cost be
tween $15 million and $20 million a
year to operate. The project is being
funded by the National Science
Foundation.
Dan Hunt, program director for
the National Science Foundation,
says the NSF has been supporting
ocean exploration for more than a
decade.
“The funding basically comes
from NSF, which also funded the
Deep Sea Drilling Project for 15
years,” Hunt says. “This is the!
low-up program to build a bigf
ship and a better ship.”
In the past, NSF has done its o'
research, hut this time the reseai
was contracted, he says.
Texas A&M submitted a bidf*
the Ocean Drilling Program !'
years ago to Joint Oceanographic
stitutions Inc., a non-profit corpoi
tion that directs the program
contract to build a $5 million fai
to conduct the program
awarded last year. Plans call for
60,000 square foot building, v/hi
will he built next to the poultry fai
just off University Drive.
Program director Rabinowiusa'
the building will have a 10,1
square foot refrigerated stora]
room for the rock samples that
be brought hack from all over
world.
Conversion of the ship is sche»
tiled for completion by Decenih
when it will go on a test cruise.
