CANOEISTS' RESTING PLACE: Just above Ann Arbor the remnants of an old dam, the last evidence of the grist mill which once stood there, offer a resting place for canoeists. In the days before the white man came to Michigan, the Huron formed a portion of the Indians' network of water trails. Most of the river is now navigable by canoe, but if camp sites and portages were developed along the Huron and Clinton rivers, the two streams could be utilized for healthful, pleasure-giving overnight canoe trips by the residents of southeastern Michigan.

Wayne Say of Ann Arbor said he was working off his Thanksgiving dinner Thursday as he paddled down the Huron River in Gallup Park. Say, who canoes all winter long, calls his after-holiday canoeing an 'interruptable Thanksgiving tradition.'
