Among the participants at the Hawaii Section meeting were, left to right: Capt. Kenneth Wilson, USN, Com- mander, Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard, Section chairman;

Mrs. Wilson; Bill Woods, social scientist, University of

Hawaii, co-presenter of the program, and Miss Peggy Lu- cas, Tektite II Aquanette from Makai Range, Oahu,

Hawaii.

Another successful and well-attended Annual

Ladies' Night was hosted by the Hawaii Sec- tion of The Society of Naval Architects and

Marine Engineers on February 8, 1972, at the Ala Moana Banquet Hall.

Papers chairman Dr. Ludwig Seidl planned an informal program to interest the ladies.

Joe Hanson, oceanographer, assisted by Bill

Woods, social scienitist, presented a history of the Hawaiian Island Chain from an ecologi- cal standpoint. With the help of a prepared program, using a tape recorder, slide projector and sound movies, Mr. Woods conducted the members and guests on an aerial, ground level and underwater tour through time, to show how the islands emerged from the sea and how the ancient Hawaiians developed a stable eco-

Underwater movies were shown of Kaneohe

Bay on Oahu's windward shore in a "before and after" sequence. At present, Kaneohe Bay is some six feet shallower due to silt run-off from windward land grading practices. The siltation and sewage effluent have also killed many acres of coral and underwater organisms, thus creating a very unattractive and decaying ecological system within the bay. The presen- tation was of more than just passing interest to the Society members presenit, due to the increasing emphasis on control of shipboard- originated effluent and waste discharge. Some of the Pearl Harbor Navy members have al- ready been involved in waste treatment studies in connection with the Navy's program of pol- lution abatement in Pearl Harbor, which once had beds of fine edible oysters.

Pictured during the meeting, left to right: Joe Hanson, oceanographer, presenter of the program, and Dr. Ludwig

Seidl, ocean engineering department, University of Ha- waii, papers chairman.

During the short discussion period some questions were raised as to whether the dete- rioration in Kaneohe Bay was reversible. Mr.

Hanson stated that no real solution is known and that some thought had been given to cut- ting a canal across Mokapu peninsula to cause a flushing action. However, he felt that such a canal should be fitted with gates so as to stop the experiment if it caused adverse effects in the area.
