Calliope Player Hawley To Take Over On Avalon River Boat
Clark Hawley, a 20 year old business administration junior from Clarksburg, will play the steam calliope aboard the Avalon during three days in Charleston and plans to join the ship in Pittsburgh for the summer tour up the Kanawha and Ohio rivers. The Avalon, built 1914, carries 1370 passengers and is owned by Steamship Avalon Inc. in Cincinnati. Hawley learned the craft by tinkering with leaky pipes atop the ship and will become one of about seven steam calliopes remaining in the United States. He expects to graduate soon and then miss the boat and crew.
