New Michigan Map Printed 600000 Copies By Rand McNally Co
Mackie reports Rand McNally has printed 600000 copies of the new Michigan highway map with nearly 25000 copies distributed to travelers, tourist groups, chambers of commerce, hotels, oil companies and travel bureaus. The map helps drivers as Michigan’s highway system changed recently. Copies available by writing the State Highway Department in Lansing. Michigan aims to connect with Canada by a third international bridge at Sault Ste. Marie by year end, joining Blue Water and Ambassador bridges. The Soo Bridge tolls will be charged. Ambassador Bridge tolls persist. The Ambassador, opened in 1929, remains the oldest direct Canada bridge, with ongoing maintenance and annual painting, coins tossed for luck sometimes found under its girders. Muskellunge fingerlings, 720 to 9000, released in three Upper Peninsula waters on June 21, 1958, with releases in Gratiot Lake, Iron Lake, and the Tahquamenon River. Fish 2.5 to 3.5 inches will be shipped by the department plane.
