FWS To Determine
Depth Of Lakes
Juneau—The Fish and .Wild
life Service will begin using a I
fathometer to determine thej
depths of game fish lakes in
Alaska, Clarence Rhode direc
tor, reports.
“This probably will be the I
first air-borne fathometer in
Alaska,’’Rhode said. The in-1
strument, which weighs 15!
pounds, will be installed in aj
Grumman Goose and will be
transferable to other planes.
Cost of the fathometer is
less than $500 and Rhode said
it “should pay for itself in a
week” by eliminating the
necessity for sounding. A
plane need only taxi across a
lake and a contour of the bot
tom is drawn on a graph.
A record of the depth of
lakes is valuable in planning
stocking programs and related
work, Rhode said.
The completion of a radio
teletype communication sys
tem connecting Seattle and
Portland with eight points
served in Alaska was announ
ced by Pacific Northern Air
lines recently.
lne points connected by
radio teletype are Seattle,
Juneau, Yakatat, Cordova,
Kenai, Anchorage, Homer, I
Kodiak, and King Salmon.
The radio transmitting
equipment and frequency
channels are leased from the'
Alaska Communication System
and the Civil Aeronautics Ad
ministration
Passenger and company
business communication which
previously took several days
can now be done between the
points in a matter of minutes
