...compartment that enables it to discharge and pick up divers far below the water's surface. When pressure in the divers' compartment has been built up to equal the water pressure outside, a hatch drops open, enabling the divers to depart. When they come back, they can eat and rest in the still-pressurized compartment and then return to work in the watery depths without ever having to undergo a time-consuming decompression process...
...divers in a pressurized chamber. Under water, the divers can emerge through a bottom hatch, work outside from two to six hours, then return to the diving chamber. Still pressurized, the bell is hoisted back on deck. There it is attached to the roomier dormitory, where the divers can eat and sleep, still under pressure, before returning to the depths. Using this system, Cachalot divers can work steadily for as long as a week without having to go through decompression...

Yet in thelast 5 min., as Dallas led 17-14, Starr coolly, carefully marched his team 69 yds., then took the ball across himself in the final...
There are no hotels and few places to eat in the area, and delegates will have to commute from the Loop via a single expressway or the back streets of the ghetto. The city's mammoth lakefront exhibition hall--closer to downtown, isolated from residential ears, and far easier to defend--was gutted by fire a year ago, but Daley's clout and assurance of peace brought the party to Chicago anyway...
