Electro-Nav introduces a new synthesized, 67 channel, maximum power, automatic 2-channel scanning,

VHF-FM radiotelephone

Ifs our unbeatable "Great Dane '67", and ifs all there... ON ONE CHASSIS.

Synthesized... no need to tie up your money on expensive spare crystals. You get 67 channels., .count them: 35 duplex. 22 simplex, 10 private. At a power output of 25 watts, the maximum allowed by law.

A "dual watch" circuit automatically scans any 2 channels you select... simultaneously...so you don't miss any calls. And the built-in provision for 4 remotes lets you turn any part of your vessel into a communications center.

The most advanced printed and integrated circuits make the "Great Dane'67" compact enough to mount almost anywhere, and the handcrafted engineering makes it rugged enough to do an excellent job under a wide range of adverse conditions. In fact, the "Great Dane '67" is approved by every significant maritime authority in the world, including the FCC, and is used extensively aboard the ships of several NATO navies.

Operation is simple. As for servicing, the modular construction makes it a snap, our world-wide dealer network (including 10 in North Sea ports) makes it easily available, and our no-nonsense warranty on parts and labor is the best in the business.

And the price is right. How right? Give us a call and see for yourself. • Synthesized, no crystals to buy • 67 channels, including 10 private lines • maximum permissible power output — 25 watts • automatic 2 channel scanning • modular construction, integrated circuitry, handcrafted engineering • FCC type accepted • rugged, compact (15"x5-5/16"x6-5/8" I • world-wide servicing • no-nonsense warranty

Guide On Equipment For

Water Pollution Control

A "Guide to Water Cleanup

Materials and Methods" has been published by Arthur D. Little,

Inc./Learning Systems, and rep- resents the first central engineer- ing data base for water pollution control equipment. Recent envi- ronmental laws have put most of

American industry in the pollu- tion control business. Companies involved in the manufacturing, processing, shipping, or storage of various products have been forced to consider the impact of unintentional spills, accidental or deliberate discharges, or improp- er treatment of potentially dan- gerous waste water. This guide provides timely information about preventive and remedial pollution control efforts.

All important domestic and for- eign producers of water cleanup equipment and materials are in- cluded in this 350-page book, and 500 products are described in terms of their function, proper- ties, dimensions, performance characteristics, applications, and compatibility with other equip- ment. Over 250 photographs illus- trate systems such as booms and barriers, skimmers, separators, sorbents, chemical agents, oil/ water monitors, overflow preven- tion devices, flow meters, pumps, waste water treatment equip- ment, and analytical equipment.

The balance of the 20 sections of the book includes, advice on contingency planning; lists of cleanup contractors and spill co- operatives; state water pollution laws and regulations; state water pollution control offices and con- tacts; Federal laws and regula- tions; EPA and U.S. Coast Guard contacts; Government agencies concerned with water quality and pollution control; plus tables and conversion factors, and a glossary of practical terms.

Copies of the guide ($29.95/ 350 pp.) are obtainable from Dr.

Bethlehem Sparrows Point Delivers 120,000-Dwt Tanker To Atlantic Richfield

The 120,000-deadweight-ton tanker S/S Arco Fairbanks sails down Chesapeake Bay on her trial trip prior to her christening.

The 120,000-deadweight-ton tanker S/S Arco Fairbanks, one of the largest vessels to fly the

American flag, was recently chris- tened at the Sparrows Point, Md., shipyard of Bethlehem Steel Cor- poration by Mrs. Thornton F.

Bradshaw, wife of the president of Atlantic Richfield Company.

Named after the principal city of interior Alaska, the 883-foot- long vessel features the latest safety, navigational, communica- tions and antipollution equipment available. The ship has a liquid cargo capacity of nearly 950,000 barrels. She has a cruising range of 15,000 miles with a nominal sea speed of 16 knots developed from 26,000-horsepower steam turbines. The Arco Fairbanks completes the current building program of five tankers totaling 500,000 deadweight tons built by

Bethlehem Steel for Atlantic

Richfield.

Mrs. Bradshaw of Pasadena,

Calif., christened the third 120,- 000-ton U.S.-flag vessel in Atlan- tic Richfield's tanker fleet by breaking a bottle of champagne on the foremast. Her stepdaugh- ter, Mrs. Richard K. Page Jr., was matron of honor for the cere- mony.

Following the christening, Wil- liam H. Collins, general manager of the shipyard, was host at an onboard luncheon in honor of the sponsor, Mrs. Bradshaw.

The Arco Fairbanks was de- livered to Atlantic Richfield but will not go into Alaskan service immediately. The ship will initi- ally be used principally in over- seas service, pending completion of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, a spokesman said.

Previously, two 70,000-ton tankers — the S/S Arco Prudhoe

Bay and the S/S Arco Sag River — were delivered in 1971 and 1972 and are now in service for the company between Alaska's

Cook Inlet and the West Coast of the United States. The Arco

Anchorage and the Arco Juneau, both 120,000-ton tankers, were delivered in 1973 and last May, respectively, and have been in international service.

In addition to the Arco Fair- banks, the Sparrows Point yard has under construction, or on order, five 265,000-deadweight- ton tankers for other customers.

Mrs. Thornton F. Bradshaw, wife of the president of Atlantic Richfield Company, holds a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of champagne just prior to christening the

S/S Arco Fairbanks. Standing on the deck of the 120,000-dwt tanker with Mrs.
