Title: Ships - South American

Subject Headings: Ships - Passenger Ships, Persons,
Condition: Good
Description: The South American had a large passenger list Tuesday night as it arrived in Houghton for one of its midseason trips. It was the most glorious weather of the season on Lake Superior - a night of calm waters and soft breezes; even the rain caused no big winds as Memorial Airport CAA officers clocked velocity at less than 10 miles per hour. Between Munising and Duluth the trip was delightful. Souvenir stands along Shelden Ave. were crowded last night as passengers sought mementos to carry home. Many already had woodenware souvenirs of their shore visits at Munising. [A crowd gathers at the dock to greet the passengers of the South American.]
