Baranof sails into the newly acquired modern docking facilities at Pier 42 —the Alaska Terminal. y IM.PROVED transportation service for Alaska—especially during the winter months when weather is uncertain— will result from the installation of Sperry Radar on the passenger steamers of The Alaska Line fleet. The S. S. Baranof, Aleutian and Denali are now fully equipped with Radar. Radar—the eye that sees ip fog, smoke, rain, snow and total darkness—increases the efficiency of ship operation . . . aids vessels in meeting schedules . . . affords better and more efficient year-round steamship service. Sperry Radar presents an image on a viewing scope of all ships, land contours, buoys and other above-water objects—distance from any object is clearly indicated . . . a ship’s position is easily determined. Alaska Steamship Company is pleased to be one of the first ' steamship companies in the nation to install Radar on pas- senger vessels. Since its return to private operations four months ago, the Alaska Steamship Company has been de- voting its efforts for better facilities and better service. The Alaska Line fleet of seventeen vessels is how operat- ing from the new facilities at Pier 42. The installation of Radar on passenger ships is only the beginning—in the near future all The Alaska Line ships, including freighters, will be equipped with Radar. .
