AP The ice-crushing railroad ferry Chief Wawatam prepared to attack the ice of Whitefish bay late today or Wednesday, to open a passage into Lake Superior. The Wawatam locked up into Whitefish bay Sunday night but turned back to free nine vessels which were caught in the ice near White Shoals, at the west end of the Straits of Mackinac.

The ferry succeeded in breaking a channel for those freighters into Lake Michigan. After his brief inspection of the Whitefish bay ice, Capt. Gerald Stufflebeam, of the Wawatam, said it was "the worst I have ever seen." The tugs Favorite and Iowa succeeded in opening a channel through the bay into Lake Superior last week, but the path they cleared has been closed by the ice. The Cleveland Cliffs freighters Frontenac and Peter White reached the government dock here Monday night, the third and fourth vessels to arrive this season. Five Pittsburgh ore carriers and the supply boat Frontier will remain at Detour, at the lower end of the St.

The south passage was reported free of ice.
