Engineers and geologists are concerned that otherwise the leaning tower, increasing its tilt by a quarter -inch every 10 years, may become the topp- ling tower by the year 2100. Prof. Letterio Donato of the University of Pisa civil engi- neering faculty outlined an elaborate stabilization project at the end of a recent national hydraulic and geodetic conven- tion. The plan is aimed at keep- ing the eight -story white mar- ble Tuscan Tower permanently tipped 16 feet off center—as it is now. STEPS LISTED Professor Donato made a series of subterranean soundings with electronic equipment a few years ago. On the basis of those findings' and further study by experts, the new program calls for: 1. Sinking two huge steel screens into the unstable soil from opposite sides of the famous bell tower at a distance of 150 feet. The idea is to keep the ground perfectly still during successive stages. • 2. Planting eight pneumatic caissons in an outer ring 185 feet from the tower at a depth of 36 feet below sea level. Each caisson will be 53 feet square. 3. Removing the old sup- porting soil under the tower as far out as the steel screens, taking out an accumulation of concrete and rubble shoved underneath during the centuries in an effort to stop the steadily increasing lean. 4. Replacing the earth and building a new foundation un- der the tower according to modern techniques of sub- structural engineering. PAST RECALLED Pisa straddles the river Arno. In the middle ages Pisa was a powerful maritime republic that rivaled Genoa, Lucca, Amalfi and Venice. Pisa was six miles closer to the sea in those days — before accumulations of silt from the flowing Arno pushed the sea farther west. The tower was begun on this deceptive terrain in 1174 by Bonanno Pisano. When he saw his tower leaning dangerously he tried to correct the tilt by straightening the successive stories, As a result the tower has a bend in it, as well as a lean. The last three stories plus a belfry, were added in 1350 — when the tower was already 10 feet off the perpendicular. Legend says that Galileo Ga- lilei, most famous alumnus of the University of Pisa, climbed to the top and dropped objects off the downslope to test his theories on the laws of free - falling objects. EVEN WIND WATCHED The Pisani supposedly have always been grateful for the wind that blows in from the sea — against the lean. They used to joke about where the tower would be now if the wind blew from the other side. Before World War ll nearly 900 tons of concrete were pump- ed into holes dug under the low side of the tower in an ef- fort to stop the increasing lean, The rate of lean slowed con- siderably until artillery shell- ing in 1944 caused shock waves that started the process all over again. New Yorker (at Niagara Falls) I bet you haven't any- thing like this in Texas. Texan: Nope, but we got plumbers who can fix it. WILD ANIMALS GAIN FROM CIVILIZATION The coming of the white man to North America haa, meant the near -destruction of whole species of animals, such as the bison, elk and beaver. However, other species, not- ably the woodchucks and rabbits are now more plentiful than they were before the coming, the Europeans. Greater supply food, particularly plantsgrown by man, is responsible. WOMEN'S INST. EUCHRE Will be held in the Council Chambers on Thursday, May 9, 8:15.
