The committee broadened the bill
to include all sailboats and require
the operator of a motor boat tow
ing water skiers to be at least -

such waters as Deep Creek Lake
and the Potomac River. Boats on

Dam Proving
Tourist Lure

Glen Canyon Dam, being
built across the Colorado River,
already is one of Arizona's
fastest growing tourist mag
nets.
One of the most historic
spots near the site of the TOO
foot-high dam is the so-called
Crossing of the Fathers. 1t
was here, in 1776, that the
Spanish priests, Escalante and
Dominguez, made the first re-
corded crossing of the Colo
RADIO.
New National Park Service
markers have been erected both
to. direct and inform visitors
about the site. Among the
highlights are the rough stone
steps which the priests cut into
the canyon wall to enable their
horses to make the descent.
Not far from that point is
the Wahweap Wind Tunnel.
Carved by wind and sand in
amber-colored rock, the 100
foot-long tunnel is something
like a natural funnel, being 40
feet across at one end and
about $50 feet wide at the other
end.
AS yet, it takes a 3-mile hike
to. get to the tunnel. When
Lake Powell is formed after
completion Of the dam, it is
expected that the tunnel will
be easily available by boat.
Meantime, construction work
at the dam is attracting thou
sands of canyon side superin-

trip during the week. It was
pointed out that not only will
traffic be heavy over the week
end but accommodations are
already booked at Skyland and

Motorists were advised to try
for reservations in the valley
at Luray. New Market and
Harrisonburg over the week
end. Front Royal accommoda-
tionS. according to AAA, are
booked up because next Satur-
day is homecoming for Ran
dolph-Macon Academy.
For those planning to drive
further in their search for fall
color, reports from the Great
Smoky Mountain National Park,
Blue Ridge Parkway and Pisgah
and Nantahala National For
ests of Western North Carolina,
indicate the big show should be
on view beginning tomorrow at
attitudes above 1000 feet and
