CRAM COURSE NO. 4: BATHYMETRY
Continuing our scries of pre-final exam. cnim courses, today wo
take up t*athymetry—the study of ocean depths.
Admittedly, this is not a terribly popular course on most
campuses. Amt small wonder. In the whole world there is only
one imtliyscape, ami only two people can get into it.
Nevertheless, the study of ocean depths is of great impor
tance. jyhy, do you realise that] the ocean is by far the world’*
largest environvnent?jThe ocean Kris more than three
Kniidretl timet .as much living room ns all the continents and
islands combined! Unfortunately, only fishes live in it.
’ 'And small wonder. Wlio’d want to live some place where he
'couldn't smoke? Surely not It 1 wouldn’t give up my good -
Marlboro Cigarettes for the Atlantic and the Pacific put to
gether. Nothing could induce me to forego Marlboro's fine
mellow flavor, Marlboro's clean white filter, Marllxtro’s flip-top
kix that really foe, Marlboro's soft pack that’s really soft. .
let others repair to the spacious deeps. Me, I will stick with
my Martboros and the tiny garret 1 share with a tympanist."
But I digress. Back to the oceans. The largest, as we know.
Is the Pacific, which was discovered by Baltioa, a Spaniard of
great vision. To give you an idea of Ballwa’s vision, he first
saw tlte Pacific while standing on a peak in Darien, which is
in Connecticut.
Even more astounding, when Ballxia readied San Francisco,
he clearly saw the Hawaiian Islands! Being, as we know, a
friendly cuss, Balboa waved; merrily to the Hawaiians and
shouted, "Great little ocean you got here, kids!" The Hawaiians,
also, aa we know, friendly cusses, waved hack, declared a half
holiday, organiied a luau, huilt a cheery fire over which they
prepared several gallons of poi, a suckling nig, and Captain
Cook. This, of course, was the origin of Cooking.
But I digress. The Pacific, T say, is the largest ocean and also*
the deepest. The Mindanao Trench, off the Philippines, measure*
more than 5,000 fathoms injdepth. (It should he pointed out
here that ocean depths are measured in fathom*—lengths of
tix feet—after Sir Walter,Fathom, a noted British sea measurer
of the seventeenth century who, upon his twenty-first birthday,
was given a string si* feet long with which he used go
scampering all over England measuring sea watemmtil-he was
arrested for loitering. A passion for measuring seems to have
run-in the family; Fathom's cousin, Sir Sol Furlong, spent all
his waking hours measuring race tracks until Charles II had
him beheaded in honor of the opening of the London School of
Economics.;
But 1 digress. T>et us, as the poet Masefield said, go down to
the seas again. (The seas, incidentally, have ever !>ecn a favorite
subject for poets and composers.) Who doe* not rememlter
Tennyson's “Break, break, lireak’’? Or Byron’s 41 801 l on; thoti
dark and deep blue ocean, roll’’? Or the many hearty sea chantitw
that liave enriched our folk music—songs like “Sailing Through
Kansas" and “I’ll Swab Your Deck If You'll Swab Mine” and
“The Artificial Resjriration Polka." My own favorite sea chanty
goes like this:
A girl land a sailor and he dvl jilt her,
And the did weep and roar-hat
I 'ntil the found a perfect filter.
And a perfect smoke Slarlborof
