Those present for our November Meeting, and it was a good crowd, were treated to an excellent address and slide show by Alan Sykes. Al spoke of a number of trips he has taken aboard various lake freighters. We shall look forward to hearing more from him in the future!

In the New Member Department, a hearty welcome goes out to Helen Bridges of Toronto, to W. K. Matthews of Camlachie, to Terry Wood of Richmond, to Christopher Black, Edward Sallows and William E. Young, all of Goderich, to Scott McLellan of the Canadian Sault, to Roger Chapman of Hamilton, to Paul Jagenow of Detroit, to Archie Bradbury of Scarborough, and to Capt. Jack Sinnott of Thunder Bay.

While welcoming our new members, we would be remiss if we failed to mention the efforts of Member 283, Ronald Graham of Goderich, who has worked tirelessly to round up new members for the Society, and has signed up more recruits than we could have imagined possible. The Executive Committee of the Toronto Marine Historical Society wishes to extend to Ron its sincere appreciation for the work which he has done on our behalf.
