Photo showing Canadian Pacific Railways "pocket luxury liner", the T.E.V. Princess Patricia, the first Alaska Cruise Ship to visit Kitimat on a regular run. The welcome planned for her arrival and arrangements for her passengers and crew to have an interesting day in the Kitimat area are the result of three months planning by a special Kitimat Chamber of Commerce committee which has co-ordinated details with Evergreen Tours' director, George Shaw, the CPR, Captain H.J. Murray and officers of the Princess Patricia, the Aluminum Company of Canada, Lakelse Hotsprings, Farwest Bus Lines, and local merchants. The ship's passengers will be greeted on their arrival by the committee, Reeve Sam Lindsay, Kitimat Pipe Band and will visit Alcan's Kitimat Works, Lakelse Hotsprings, and in all will spend nearly 12 hours in Kitimat before heading to Vancouver.
