Photograph of the air travellers in and out of the Terrace-Kitimat's airport these days are noting the progress being made on the terminal building near the existing building. Improved facilities for local air passengers were approved some months ago by the federal government after long years of complaints by Kitimat and Terrace organizations. At far left may be seen the control tower.

Early post glacial shells from the time when the ocean rushed into the Kitimat Valley to the 700 level. Shells are from Mickey's Cove (Moon Bay) South Northern Dock. The shells were exposed by the April 27, 1975 land-sea slide at Mickey's Cove, where "Rivtow Straits" had worked on new docking facilities. The slide started in the bush higher up and the shell slid down with it, indicating same as at Rod and Gun Club, that the sea level was much higher pretty recently. The shells are not fossilized.
Jingle shells (Pododesmus) 76-28-1 & -2, Small seallop (Chlamys) 76-28-3, Small Clam 76-28-4 & -5, Tube Worm 76-28-6, Clam 76-28-7 & 8, Clams 76-28-9 to -13
18 vials, some numbered, some not.

Jamieson came to Kitimat from Vancouver to work on the Alcan project in 1952. With his first pay cheque he bought a small "Pony Kodak" camera at the local store (Hudson Bay?), and started taking coloured slides of the Kitimat from 1952-1953. Left Kitimat at the end of August 1953 to move to Montreal.
