BREAKING WAVES
WITH BUBBLES.

When some daring scientist pro-
posed, few years ago, to run wheels
on air" and so take up the shock and
jar OF road vehicles, he was greeted
with derisive laughter. But the pneu-
matte tire succeeded just the same,
and everybody now recognizes the
superiority of elastic air over steel
springs.
Last year Philip Thrasher, a young
engineer from Princeton University,
ventured to suggest that air might be
used to break the force of ocean
waves. A disastrous storm on the At
lantic had smashed many piers and
bulkheads along the New Jersey coast.
Thrasher's idea was to fight the waves
with line OF, air bubbles. And of
course he was laughed at for fmagin-
ing that bubbles were! more powerful
than wood, steel and concrete.
The idea has just been given a trial,
however, on the Pacific coast--and
has proved to be amazingly successful.
The Standard Oil company has a long
pier at Ell Segundo, near Los Angeles.
Half CT It had been swept away by
storms. The manager decided to see
whether bubbles would save the other
half. He ran pipe out for a short
distance beyond the wharf, and laid a
perforated section on the bottom, thir-
ty feet below the surface, running for
100 feet parallel with the end of the
wharf. 1t was connected with air COM
pressors. When another severe storm
came, the air was turned on.
The waves were rolling fifteen feet
high. But the moment they struck
that swarm Of rising bubbles, they
mysteriously collapsed. Nothing was
left of them but smooth, harmless rol,
lers.
It Is ridiculously simple discovery,
and yet remarkable one, likely to
prove useful the world over. 1t Is pos.
sible that some harbors may adopt the
air pipe as a complete substitute for
breakers, for the sake of economy.
