|__. the Loc ie) The ARTHUR W. ANDERSON has its new mid-body joined and is ex- pected to be sailing soon. Also at Fraser, the WILFRED SYKES Has a big box going up back aft for her unloader. Her appearance will be changed quite a bit, but not up forward. The ALGOSOO is running and looks alot like the TADOUSSAC but with the blunt bow like the MC- GIFFIN and GRIFFITH. She looks a lot bettdédr than the latter two boats, however. The HENRY W. ROGERS has all but been completely scrapped but the WILLIAM B. WFORD has not been touched yet. Some of the other U. S.

Lake Survey has estab- lished its Great Lakes marine survey operations at Monroe. Through June 1, reports Max Mc- Cray, the port of Monroe has re- ceived in excess of 500,000 tons of cargo.

Reports of the finding of some "lost" ships by skin divers have come to the attention of your "Log" editor in the recent weeks. Among those "found" are the ROBERT WENTE of 1888 in the Middle Channel of the St. Clair River and the MARQUETTE & BESSE- MER NO. 2 in Lake Erie off Port Stanley. Another report has been received that the ARGUS has been rediscovered somewhere in Lake Huron but the finder has refused to give out information as to its whereabouts.

The form- er park which was your Editor's campground many moons ago is completely unrecognizable. The rubble has been piled up high on the embankment and the dredges are busily at work widening the channel and cutting off part of the dangerous corner of the St. Mary's River. The Look for the ALVA C. DINKEY to become a barge at Cleveland to transfer the iron ore cargoes into the Cuyahoga River from the ROGER BLOUGH. This rumor has be- come more and more prominent in the past few weeks. A trial ef- fort was made last year from the BLOUGH into the FRASER and'was deemed a success.
