The members responded in their usual imaginative manner and we were treated to a wide variety of views of all sorts of tankers, familiar and strange. Our thanks to all who participated and to Roger Chapman for once again serving as our projectionist. The reduction from twenty to fifteen slides per per son ensured that all who brought photos were able to show them. Please reserve the evening of Saturday, May 12th, for our Annual Dinner Meeting. Full details will appear in the March issue. We should like to thank all those who have sent in lay-up lists, and to ack nowledge the large number of letters that have included other marine news or items of interest. All submissions are appreciated and we sincerely re gret that we simply do not have the time to respond individually to each letter. Your participation is what keeps our "Scanner" thriving. In the New Member Department, a hearty welcome goes out to David L . Knight of Harbor House Publications, and to Ken Brink of Hudsonville, Michigan. We also welcome back some late renewers! * * * * * * * AFFILIATED WITH THE MARINE MUSEUM OF UPPER CANADA ISSN 0 3 1 8 -0 1 4X Friday,
