Page 86 MEMBERSHIP • This December the Dossin Museum will open an exhibit tided "Cops & Luggers: Michigan's Prohibition Navy" This exhibit traces the transportation of illegal liquor across Michigan and Ontario waters from the beginning of Prohibition in 1920 until its repeal in 1933. Artifacts from this memorable era are being recovered, however, nightclub locations have been extensively altered during the past sixty years. Many clubs nowhave marinas extending far out into water, perhaps covering up the delivery locations. With the use of photographs, the exhibit will show law enforcement's battle against illegal liquor in towns along the rivers. Enclosed is a form for members wishing to participate in this fund raiser for the exhibit. Those wishing extra forms can contact the museum Wednesday-Sunday at 267-6440.

In the early 1960s, only the Aquarama and the Bob-Lo steamers Ste. Claire and Columbia operated from downtown Detroit on a daily basis. This photo of the Ste. Claire was taken in July, 1962 by Harry Wolf as the Ste. Claire was ready to depart with another full load of passengers for the Big Band cruise held every Friday night. 86 by John C.
