Claire (see page 125). Since this issue is designed to be sandwiched between regular numbers in an effort to regain our usual schedule- or perhaps optimum schedule is the word- it contains no news column; that will appear in our July issue, which will also be our Seaway annual issue. GPB Meeting Notes Evening Bob-Lo Cruise Tuesday 28 July 1964 From Foot of Woodward, 6 p.m. We neglected to mention in our last notice of this meeting that our annual evening cruise to Bob Lo will be aboard the steamer Columbia, so if any of- our readers bear partial ity toward her, we trust they will come along; while fans of Ste. Claire will have a chance to see her pass by on the way! Join us in any case. INSTITUTE PACE Business Meeting Friday 28 August 1964 Dossin Museum, 8 p.m. Visitors are welcome to these meet ings of the Board of Directors. * * * In the annual election meeting in June, the results of the recent election were disclosed. All incumbents of the Board who ran were re turned to office, and the vacant position on the Board was filled by the Rev. Peter VanderLinden. This vacancy had been left by Father Dowling, our retiring president, for whom the position of honorary president was created by the Board in its April meeting. Our new president, elected by the Board in June meeting, is Bob Radunz, who will be familiar to Telescope readers as editor of its news columns. Ken Fair banks becomes our vice president, in deserving recognition of his work with the model builders of our organization. Bill Worden, returning from studies in Denmark, was elected secretary. James McDonald and Bob Lee remained Treasurer and Coordinating Director, respectively. =t= * * We continue in this issue with Father Dowling's list of the "lakers" built on the Great Lakes during World War I. Many of our readers will recall that he published a more abbreviated list of the "lakers" in the Detroit Marine Historian in 1956 to 1957, volume 10, numbers 1 to 7, at a time when he was its editor. The present list is broader in scope and brings up to date both the subsequent history and corrections and additions in the light of later re search. Such lists as this are rarely finished," and we are sure that Father Dowling will continue to welcome further information that our readers can supply.
