Kodiak-Homer-Seward Marine Highway
Extension; ‘Tustumena* Launching Set
The Kodiak-Homer-Seward ferry
boat will be launched Dec. 14, at
1:30 p.m. at the Christy Corpora
tion shipyard in Sturgeon Bay, Wis.
Mrs. William A. Egan, wife of
the governor, will sponsor the 238
foot vessel which will be christened
the Tustumena. Mrs. Richard
Downing, wife of the Director ot
the Alaska Dept, of Public Works,
will be matron of honor.
Several Kodiak dignitaries have
been invited, including Mayor and
Mrs. Pete Deveau, but they will be
unable to be present for the cere
monies.
After the ship is fitted out, it
will depart from Sturgeon Bay on
one of the longest delivery trips
on record, made possible by the
St. Lawrence - Great Lakes seaway.
The route will take the vessel
down the Atlantic Coast, across
the Gulf of Mexico, through the
Panama Canal and up the West
Coast of the United States to Se
attle, where it will be accepted.
One of the unique features of
the Tustumena is an elevator for
taking on automobiles and trucks
at various levels. This is necessi
tated by tremendously high tides,
ranging up to 36 feet, which the
ship will encounter in its opera
tion.

Here's why you'll tell other people you like it.
a
Wide-Track, for instance. Wide-Track is what
does away with tilting your way around turns.
Pontiac's smoother, quieter ride is another
thing you might point out. A big 389-cubic
inch Trophy V-8 is standard in each and
every Pontiac. You get to choose from 34
engine/ transmission teams to harness all that
power. (Happy chooeingl) > **** >•>
Now then—on to more of the things that
I f
make the '64 Pontiac so thoroughly likeable
Frankly, we couldn't think of anything radical
to do with this car. Oh, we made the styling
even more stylish, as you can plainly see
We lavished even more care on die intericee
We even improved the light bulbs. But as ft*
more vital things, why change? Improve vs*
fine, sharpen—yes. Change—no. And you
can tell that to your friends.
