international Of 80
Tons KnoWs No
Borders

The good-ship International of
SO net tons provides Americans
and Canadians likely the worlds
only opportunity to cross an in
ternatioal border without customs
and immigration fanfare.
Skipper of the Great Northern
owned ship that three times daily
flour on Sunday plies the seven
miles between Waterton townsite
in Canada and Goathaunt landing
in the United States is Tom West
gard. He came aboard the Inter-
ntional in 1928 as it's first engin-
eer when the skipper was Captain
Peter Primrose.
In 1912 Captain Primrose retir-
ed, and since then it's been Captain
Westgard, who has the lined face,
salty air and handles his ship with
seamanship skill and marine dig
nifty befitting the skipper of a great
Pacific liner.
Engineer of the International is
Glen Schnoebelen, Iowa City Iowa,
and purser, Don Fulton, st. Paul.
It's a ship of American registry
that makes its first official trip
early in June each year to be
checked by steamboat inspectors
from Seattle.

Mountain Goats Come
DoUn See What's
Cooking
HUNGRY HORSE NEWS PHOTO

Even the mountain goats appear
to be interested in Hungry Horse
developments.
Bud Chef, Martin City, saw two
mountain goats in Bedrock can
yon midway between Columbia
Falls and Martin City, Tuesday
morning. This is 20 miles away and
1000 feet down from the timber
line area in Glacier national park
where goats usually live.
Last week there was the report
of a mountain goat on Teakettle
mountain near Bedrock canyon.
Authorities on goats say that if
a stick of dynamite is exploded,
the mountain sheep, elk and deer
are scared away, but a mountain
goat comes over to see what's 60
ing on.
What was forest two years ago
is the site of new towns and there
are 400 persons working on the
Hungry Horse project itself.
No other reason has been found
to explain the appearance of the
mountain goats away from their
home.

No. 2 Slated For
Markers to Coast

Appearance of highway No. 2 on
maps as a coast-to-coast highway
will move a step closer this winter.
Alternate No. 10 from Spokane
through Wenatchee and over Ste
vens pass to Everett and Seattle
as the route of highway No. 2 has
been approved by the numbering
committee of the American Assoc
iation of State Highway officials
with the respective states concur
ring.
Montana has been interested in
having highway officially mark
ed as No. 2 to the coast since 1926,
is the comment Of A. F.Winkler
Montana's highway commission
chairman.
Improvement of No. 2 and hav
ing it shown on highway maps as
a coast to coast highway will bring
increased travel through this area.
No. 2 starts north of Bangor,
Maine; it's western section picks
up again at Duluth, MINI; crosses
Mort nDakota and Mon
tana, but then after it joins No sc
in Idaho it loses it's identity. Ida
no is expected to join Washington
in placing No. 2 highway markers.
Now nearing completion is the
of section of the road
near Troy. Idaho is also scheduling
20 miles of relocating that will
shorten No. 2 by AZ miles. This
is the so-called Moyie Falls stretch.

Sperry Glacier to Get
Pictures Taken If
Sun Shines

Weather permitting, Sperry gla-
cier in Glacier national park will
get it's annual mapping, measuring
and official photographs Monl.
and Tuesday.
Chief Park Naturalist ME-. Be
atty accompanied by Arthur john
son, Tacoma, u. S. geological sur
vey glacier e> pert, and PARK Ma
turalist Don Robinson will spend
two days at Sperry, and then re-
peat the mapping, measuring and
photographing at Jackson glacier
on Wednesday and Thursday, and
on Friday and Saturday at Grinnell
glacier.
Park glaciers are best observed
in late August and early September
when snow has melted away leav-
ing the great masses of glacial ice.
Sperry in 1900 covered $40 acres;
by 1916 it was down to $50 acres
(72 city blocks). The shrinking
ice mass is still as deep in places
as 4O-story city building is high.

New H.H. Tunnel.
To Be Spi|lway

Further unofficial information
was available Thursday afternoon
on the new tunnel to be built near
the Hungry Horse damsite this
winter.
Since the design of the 525-foot
high dam has been changed from
the conventional straight type to
the arch gravity such as used at
Boulder, spillway facilities are
best obtained by use of a hole
through the rock.
Probably sometime in Septem-
Der, bids will be called for con-
struction of a 1000 foot or so long
tunnel with a diameter of "a to 80
feet. This tunnel running from near
the top of the completed dam will
curve downward and empty into
the channel somewhere beyond the
foot of the dam. 1t will be a spill
way not a diversion tunnel.
On regular inspection of the
Hungry Horse project Thursday
and Friday is r. ]. Newell, Boise,
regional director of the U. S. bur-
eau of reclamation.
