    MAY • JUNE, 1994 VOLUME XLII; Number 3 GREAT LAKES MARITIME INSTITUTE DOSSIN GREAT LAKES MUSEUM Belle Isle, Detroit, Michigan 48207 TELESCOPE Page 58 MEMBERSHIP NOTES • There are two new books available at the museum's gift shop that will be of interest to members. Iron Fleet-. The Great Lakes in World War II bv George J. Joachim traces the contributions made to the war effort. Beginning with the late 1930’s, bulk carriers and passenger ships remained idled due to the Depression. With the outbreak of war in Europe, several Great Lakes passengers ships and package freighters were requisitioned for service overseas. When the United States entered the war, transportation of raw materials became vital. Each chapter details the cooperation of government agencies, Lakes Carriers' Association, vessel crews and dockside companies in meeting production quotas. Also covered are placement of soldiers to guard the Soo Locks, problems of dwindling numbers of men to serve aboard Great Lakes vessels and shipbuilding activities around the Lakes. This book 139-page book retails for $21.95. Queen o f the Lakes by Mark Thompson honors a particular group of Great Lakes vessels that were given this title when launched. Beginning with the Frontenac, launched on Lake Ontario in 1678, the histories of dozens of vessels are detailed. Not only is the usual background data provided, but so is the role that economics played in changing the interior design of cargo holds and overall ship design that produced the modem ships of the late 1970's and 1980's. Some well-known vessels are covered such as David Dows, Onoko, Christopher Columbus, Victory, Zenith City, Samuel F.B.

    MAY ☆ JUNE 1991 Volume XXXIX; Number 3 GREAT LAKES MARITIME INSTITUTE DOSSIN GREAT LAKES MUSEUM Belle Isle, Detroit, Michigan 48207 TELESCOPE Page 58 MEMBERSHIP NOTES • If the quality of Miss Pepsi's recent restoration was measured in elbow grease and TLC, our thirty-six foot, triple-step hydroplane would be listed in the Guiness Book of World Records as the world’s most beautiful wood boat. That elbow grease and TLC would come from DYC members Penny and Doug Breck, who both possess remarkable talent and skill. After seven months of work, Miss Pepsi is now ready to greet museum visitors and show off her graceful mahogany lines, twin Allison engines and the most beautiful finish on the lakes. This will be the last issue of Telescope typeset on the Compugraphic machine. Many members will remember back to May, 1978 when we switched from the Varityper to the Compu­ graphic. Because of the advances in computers, especially in the area of laser printers, the GLMI Board voted in February to purchase a desk-top publishing unit with the computer. In the past two years we’ve had a few problems with the Compugraphic machine (in one issue the letter “k” quit on the keyboard) and rather than spend over $1,000.00 for repairs, the Board voted to buy a computer. When the repairman came to look at the Compugraphic Execuwriter II for the last time, he informed us that the GLMI had the last model in the State of Michigan. MEETING NOTICES • Mr. Wayne Garrett will speak on marine engines on Friday, May 17th at 8:00 p.m.

    NOVEMBER ☆ DECEMBER, 1989 VOLUME XXXVIII; Number 6 and Index I GREAT LAKES MARITIME INSTITUTE V DOSSIN GREAT LAKES MUSEUM Belle Isle, Detroit, Michigan ,48207 TELESCOPE Page 142 MEMBERSHIP NOTES • Last spring we promised that the WCF pilothouse would finally be installed at the museum by fall. Unfortunately, all the work was done on blueprints these past few months and we can’t show the changes that have been proposed for the foundation. The questions lie with how deep to drive the pilings, sixty or ninety feet, so that the foundation will not shift ever. Older members will remember how close the water was to DeRoy Hall before the thirty-foot seawall was built. This fall another soil sample was taken to determine the depth for the pilings (rock bottom is 100 feet down) and to insure that construction of the foundation will not shift in the future. Members will be interested in the following new books for Christmas. We will try to have them available at the museum in December, however, you may wish to order directly from the publisher in insure delivery for Christmas. Railway Steamships of Ontario by Dana Ashdown examines the relationship between the railroads and steamship companies to better serve passengers travelling from 1850-1950. By combining services, new territories were opened and vessels provided the necessary tonnage to move supplies to build the railroads and later con­ nect them across lakes and rivers. This book sells for $29.95 in Canada or can be ordered from Boston Mills Press, 132 Main St., Erin, Ontario, NOB 1T0.

    JULY ☆ AUGUST, 1989 VOLUME XXXVII; Number 4 TELESCOPE Page 86 MEMBERSHIP NOTES • All contracts have been approved for the installation of the Wm. Clay Ford pilothouse, but as of June 1st, the construction company had not begun to drive the pilings on the museum grounds. When the cement is poured, it will be at least thirty days before the pilothouse can be placed on it. This will give us an opportunity to install the air conditioner, heater and other small electrical items before it is placed on the barge and brought upriver. We have almost raised the funds needed for the project and a few minor details, such as new carpeting may have to be delayed for a few months. The G.L.M.I. has printed a membership brochure. Any member interested in distributing these brochures at marine functions in their cities should contact the museum. MEETING NOTICES • There are no meetings scheduled in July. Future Board of Directors meetings (which all members are invited to attend) are scheduled for Thursdays, August 10 and October 12 at 7:30 p.m. at the museum. The Curator Robert E. Lee Dinner will be held on Friday, September 15th. Our guest speaker, Mr. Mike Dixon will show slides on the history of the St. Clair Flats.
