New York Maritime College, Fort Schuyler, Bronx, N.Y.

The State University of New York Mari- time College, Fort Schuyler, Bronx, N.Y., re- ceived a $1,500 assistance grant from the Gulf

Oil Foundation, and two cadets each received a $100 U.S. Government Savings Bond in a recent ceremony conducted in the presence of the Cadet Regiment of the College.

School officials said that the grant will be used for the Maritime College Development

Fund, the purpose of which is to further spe- cial projects proposed within the college that are ineligible for formal budget support. To- gether with other sections of its educational assistance program, Gulf will distribute more than three million dollars in awards to stu- dents and institutions of higher education this year. The funds will provide for undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, employee gift matching, capital grants, and other edu- cational purposes.

The two cadets were awarded the U.S. Gov- ernment Savings Bonds because of the demon- strated effectiveness during training on board ship. Cadet James Gage, son of Mr. and Mrs.

Henry P. Gage of Jefferson, N.Y., demon- strated effectiveness in engineering. Cadet

William F. Woehler, son of Mr. and Mrs.

David E. Woehler of Detroit, Mich., received his bond for his knowledge of navigation.

The check, presented to Rear Adm. Edward

J. O'Donnell, UlSIN (ret.), president of State

University of New York Maritime College, and the two bonds presented to the cadets, were awarded by William F. Muir, assistant manager in the marine department of Gulf Oil

Corporation. 25th Anniversary For

Bailey Refrigeration

This month, Bailey Refrigeration Co., Inc. of

Brooklyn, N.Y., will celebrate its 25th anniversary.

The company was founded in 1946 on Hamilton

Avenue in Brooklyn in what Ralph R. Bailey, president, describes as "an office smaller than a stateroom." In a relatively short time the business was expanded, and a modern office and warehouse was constructed. Last year a much larger ware- house was added.

From an organization that originally served only the New York waterfront, Bailey now oper- ates from the Brooklyn headquarters and branches in Washington and New Orleans. To serve the growing port of Miami, a new branch was re- cently established there. Now, shipments are made to ports and shipyards in almost all parts of the world.

With the success of the original company in refrigeration and air-conditioning, Bailey formed related organizations to serve the needs of not only the marine industry, but those of the indus-

December 1, 1971 trial and commercial fields as well. Bailey Refrig- eration Co., Inc. handles the installation of com- plete systems, conversions, alterations and repairs, including round-the-clock service in emergencies.

Bailey Distributors, Inc. maintains a vast stock in its various warehouses of complete units and parts, most of which are described in their latest 180-page catalog. Bailey Carpenter & Insulation

Co., Inc. handles the insulation of compartments for refrigerated cargoes and stores, the modern- ization of existing ships' interiors and voyage re- pairs to speed turnarounds.

In all, the three companies offer everything that anyone might require in refrigeration and air- conditioning. A fourth organization, Bailey Joiner

Co., Inc. has a comprehensive line of marine furn- iture, illustrated in its 140-page catalog, and offers the services of qualified joiner mechanics.

Mr. Bailey, who has guided the company for the past quarter century, was graduated from Vir- ginia Polytechnic Institute in 1936, and went to sea immediately as an engineer cadet on the S/S

Santa Paula of the Grace Line. Three months later he received his third assistant engineer's license.

Mr. Bailey later served on several vessels of

Agwi Lines as refrigeration engineer, junior en- gineer, and as third, second, and first engineer.

He also supervised the construction of the S/S

Agwiprince and the S/S Agwimonte. During the war, Mr. Bailey served as chief engineer on runs to the Persian Gulf. When the war ended, he was assistant general manager of Turbine Engineering

Co. in charge of the conversion of vessels to re- frigerated cargo ships.

Mr. Bailey is a member of The Society of

Naval Architects and Marine Engineers, the So- ciety of Marine Port Engineers of New York,

The Propeller Club and the Downtown Athletic

Club.
