The prize, a six foot tusk of pure ivory, has been for-| warded to Miller from New York by George Palmer Putnam, director ol the expedition, which returned to the United States early in Octo ber. With prize Mr. Putnam sent Miller a lotter expressing the expedition’s appreciation of the consistent work he did in main. taining communication with the schooner “Morrissey” throughout her stay in the waters of Northern Greenl. Before the Morrissey sailed last June, Bdward Maaley, radio opera- | tor the expedition, arranged schedules with a number of ama- teurs working under the Amateur Radio League.

The Morrissey's radio equipment consisted of two short-wave sets, powered by gasoline motor- driven dynamo and the other pow- ered entirely by d cell “B" vat- teries, When the ship struck a hidden reef off Northumberland Is- land on the night of July 25 and was threatened with destruction under pounding seas and high winds, the dynamo-powered set was damaged by the sea water and went out of commission.

All this radio equipment was fur- nished by Atwater Kent and Na- tional Carbon Company for experi- mental purposes. Miller, winner of the prize for handling most of Manley's trafiic, has been an amateur radio opera- tor for a number of years. Befora short-wave radio communication came into vogue, however, he was a commercial telegraph operator and still spends his working hours at the keyboard“of a telegraph in- strument. Manley, who was the only radio operator with the expedition dur- ing its hunt for narwhals, polar bears, rare Arctic sharks and seals and other specimens of animal and fish life in the Far North, is also an amateur operator of several years’ experience.
