AmShip Division Christens Longest Vessel On Great Lakes (SEE PAGE 12) can do it;

If you need a sophisticated marine refrigeration or air conditioning system, call us. We have the know-how, the engineers, the mechanics and a vast inventory of essential component parts to do the job. That's why we are able to turn out such equipment in a matter of weeks instead of several months that most companies require. And yet; our systems are all custom-built while most others are from a standard line. What's the difference? You needn't accept standard dimensions when our flexibility of design permits us to make units small enough to fit through a watertight door or large enough to air condition an entire ship's quarters. Our units are complete in every detail and only require securing to foundations and connecting to water and electric supply outlets. Repair parts, if needed for any of our equipment, are on the shelves at all of our locations on the East and Gulf Coasts.

a Bailey exclusive that is added to our Marine Pax for cooling, heating, water chilling or dehumidification, incorporates a magnetic controller and refrigerant control panel in a custom- designed module.

Let BAILEY, a recognized leader in marine refrigeration and air conditioning for over three decades, bid on your next job.

SPC Coatings Combat Rising Fuel Costs- Literature Available Following the Arab oil embargo in late 1973, International Paint Company rose to the challenge of combating rising fuel costs with the introduction of the Inter- smooth SPC (self-polishing co- polymer) antifouling coating system. The newest member of this family of coatings is Intersmooth SPC-20. It polishes more slowly than the other products and, in combination with an Intersmooth SPC-4 or SPC-9 system, allows extended in-service periods beyond 30 months.

Behind the HUD directory is 100 years of experience. Hongkong United Dockyards are the biggest ship repair and conversion specialists in Hong Kong. Within one new complex there are the facilities to handle every kind of vessel — right up to drydocking and servicing a 100,000 DWT ship. And there are even special HUD flying sguads which use planes and helicopters to undertake initial assessments while a ship is still on the high seas.

Brochure Available On Foster Wheeler Boilers And Auxiliary Equipment Foster Wheeler Energy Corpo- ration, Livingston, N.J., has just published a 16-page, full-color brochure describing and illustrating its full range of marine boilers and auxiliary equipment including condensers, steam jet air ejectors, inert gas generators, and flue gas scrubbers. The booklet contains specifications, dia- grams and many full-color, cut- away illustrations. Foster Wheeler offers a complete range of boiler designs. Each unit is individually engineered to achieve the operating requirements of the specific vessel it will be powering. Starting with the basic "D" type boiler, each derivative design was developed to make the greatest contribution to vessel operating profit, considering cargo capacity, manning, financing, and life cycle. Foster Wheeler designs and manufactures other major marine power plant components and can integrate the boiler and these components into a power system that will generate the required shaft horsepower in a most cost- and fuel-efficient way.

PRUFE 99.5% CONTROL DUrfSBAN, DIAZINON 0% CONTROL Roach Prufe is No. I in University of California Tests

In a report just released by the UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA and published by the EN- TOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA, eight commercial and test products that included a broad spectrum of insecticides were tested against a product called "Roach Prufe." The tests kills roaches were conducted in heavily infested apartments and showed at the end of the 8 week test period that with a single application of "Roach Prufe" in each apartment, the roach population was re- duced by an average 99.5%. By comparison, with the worst results were the two most widely used insecticides for roach control, "Dursban" and "Diazinon." They showed a 0% (no) reduction at the end of the 8 week tests. Commenting in a letter, the University researchers stated: "Our experience under field conditions has shown that when properly applied, the Roach Prufe formula ODORLESS NON-STAINING po^j provides a degree of cockroach control that is usually superior to all other registered commer- '^'^Z^CHOfCHUO^ SHBACJ'^tf cial or consumer products."
