Father's The island time forgot Eerie, desolate Clipperton Island, where sixty years ago a brutal rapist held reign over a group of women and children, is explored by Captain Jacques Yves-Cousteau in 'Clipperton: The Island Time Forgot'--another in the all-new series of 'The Cousteau Odyssey' specials--to premiere on Wednesday, February 25 on PBS.* Captain Jacques-Yves Cousteau and a team made up of French, Canadian, and American scientists recently visited Clip­ perton, located in the Pacific Ocean some 600 miles from Mex­ ico, to study the island's geology and life systems. Now a French possession, Clipperton was occupied by Mexico in the early years of this century. In 1908, a small gar­ rison, under the command of Captain Arnaud, accompanied by his young bride, set up camp on the island. Arnaud's son, Ramon (pictured right with Cousteau), was born on the island, a coral atoll only two miles in diameter ; 1 During World War I, Captain Arnaud, unwilling to abandon his post, rejected an offer of evacuation by an American ship. Gradually, food and medicines ran out, and, in 1915, Captain Arnaud drowned while trying to reagh a passing ship that might have provided his garrison with supplies. In the end, Madame Arnaud, her son, and nine surviving women and children were left with a brutal lighthouse keeper who, after seizing all available guns, demanded the services of the women, raping and shooting a mother and a daughter who refused him. In 1917, the women, led by Madame Arnaud, murdered the lighthouse keeper with little Ramon witnessing the terrifying scene. A short time later, the Yorktown, sent to check for enemy Germans, rescued them. _ On the broadcast, Captain Cousteau brings Ramon back to the island. Ramon points out where the tragic events took place--the section of the coast where Captain Arnaud made his desperate attempt to reach the passing ship and the little house where the women murdered their tormentor. •CHECK LISTINGS FOR EXACT TIME TV C--UUM MirvtCCT.
