Rose Hill man, Henry S. Wfl
llams, who resides with his
sister, Mrs. Odell Teachey.
Seaman WillUms replied
when asked why he wanted to
make the Journey to die Artie,
"what I really want to see is
how this ship handles in all that
ice. Sure, It's historical and
great. But to me the exciting I
part is the voyage itself. I
will always look back on it with
pride. I'm very happy to be
going and don't have a doubt
;ln the world that we will be
successful".
The S. S. Manhattan has m
smashed a sea route through
~ ice packs up to M feet thick
and broken through floating ice
laced with formidable 40 foot
I cl/lnoie
riages.
At one point she backed up,
charged ahead and ripped a
gaping path through the stub
I born, steel-Ilka ice crust that
has historically put an and to
all attempts by commercial
vessels to transit the Northwest
I. > I The Manhattan attempted the
I ipiost treacherous stretch oftbe
passage In McClure Strah. She
turned back about half-way
through the strait. A study of
I air reconnaissance reports an
ice conditions in die strait
north of Banks Island led to die
decision to take an alternate,
less formidable route through
die Prince pf Wales Strait,
which runs south-southwest
along die eastern shore of the
I island and western edge of Vic
toria Island.
STUCK IN ICE
The mighty 156,000 dlsplace
* ment ten Manhattan became
stuck in die ice September 9
I when she slowed down to allow
I jbe UJS. Coast Guard icebreak
er North wind to keep up with
Iter six dies el engines quit
working.
The third ship making the
expedition is the Canadian Ice
breaker John A. Mac Don aid.
Capt. Roger Steward, master of
the Manhattan, expressed his
appreciation to the captain of
the MacOonald for his Success
in freeing the tanker from ice
In Viscount Melville Sound. ,
Capt. Steward said he doubt
ed the Manhattan could have
freed herself from the solid
grip of the ice without the
Mac Don aid's help. The previ
ous day she had also become
frosen firmly In the ice when
she stopped to put research
parties over the side on foot,
but freed herself at that time
by employing her heeliqgsys
tem. backing up and then
charging the tee after gaining
speed. 7 ' 5 Itff
The heeling system rapidly
transfers 2,000 tons of bal
last from port side to starboard
side, or vice versa, causing the
ship to list three degrees. It
creates a rocking action that
jerks the vessel free from Ice.
Powered by dies el engines, the
SOLID ICE
After moving into McClure
Strait on September 10 to feel
out the ice, the Manhattan
sailed along at six knots
through a nearly solid coverage
of extremely hard multi-year
Ice. Stanlye B. Haas, project
manager of the Marine Arctic
Task Force, said, "The ice we I
are breaking up now is naming
from six to eight feet thick and
we feel we have yet to reach
the capabilities of the ship."

RESEARCH PARTIES

dead In the ice of Viscount Mel

WagTwEn^she^pJtate^hw
unique 126-foot long bow into
an extensive Ice pack In Baffin
Bay off the west coast of
Greenland,
The tanker penetrated the Ice
on the morning of September 2
after steaming along a course
strewn with towering Icebergs,
bergy bits (cottage sized pieces
of ice), and growlers (chunks
of ice the size of an automo
bile.) ; ?' L W
The pack consisted of dan
gerous second-year ice, long
avoided by mariners because of
Its known hardness and
strength characteristics. Floes
and the mains of old ice ridges
ranged from wheelbarrow size
to some larger than football
fields, ,f W; t
"A VERY ABLE SHIP..."
"We were well pleased with
the performance of the ship,"
said Capt. Steward after the
tanker's first bout with heavy
ice. He added that it "proved
that we have a very ahle ship."
THE BIG QUESTION
The Manhattan, U.S. Coast
Guard certified as a tanker
oceanographic research vessel,
seeks to answer ? single
"multl-multi" million dollar
question:
Is it profitable to operate spe
cially designed icebreaklng
tankers in the Artie waterway
at the top of the North Amer
ican continent?

?Daniel J. McKethan?Dear Sir:
As I have written to Mother
apd have this side left, I will
have a fenjjftSds with you as '
* I,did not tlMflit .f| write all !
1 wanted to when I wrote before. ;
I hope you will be good enough
to stay with Mother if John
don't succeed* in getting a sub
stitute, which 1 am affraid he
will not be able to do. If you
should get through the work
I told you about before time to
go about fodder I had thought of
cleaning up the branch commen
cing next to the new ground, but
if the weather is dry enough and
you think it will pay best you
can have them to haul mud out
of the swamp* through the low
field into the piece called the
"old outpatch". It is the piece
next to the aewgroud between the
low field and where the bear
grass grows. Isaac knows the
piece. If the mare frets much
*
ined at it. 1 don't know what to
tell you about Mothers business,
u ill ess I knew whether John had
told you his plans or not, but ]
think I would commence clear
ing the piece accross the run
ahotts the plebethat was cleared
last -winter. 1 think'* would
be well enought to hive some
mud hauled out where they
hauled from last year in die
field over the swamp fcommen
cing ' by the ditch where those
persimmon trees are.
Write often.
Yours.
