Willle Knut-| sen, 29-year-old Norwegian-Ameri- | Hcau scientist who has spent the |past ten years studying primitive peoples in Africa and the Far North, arrived in Juneau today. The youthful explorer, whose brilliant research won him the Recald Amundsen Scholarship for Polar. Research, granted annually by the Norwegian government, in 1936, hopes to study Alaskan Es- kimos -this winter in the Interior. | Knutsen's -blography zig-zags a- round and up and down the world, starting in Brooklyn, where he was born. He was taken to Norway |when a child and grew up there, |studying in Norwegian universities and Jater in England. In 1932, his. interest in anthropology and arch- aeology led him to spend nine months in Lapland, where he lived with the Laps and studied their customs. In 1934, he went to Af- rica, tramping through the bush | with the natives‘'in the French Sen- |egal, painting and sketching as he went. | | Organizes Expedition l Returning from Africa, Knutsen| joined an expedition of thirteen scientists under the sponsorship of several Norwegian institutes and' museums to explore east of Perry- land on the eastern coast of Green-' land. Their vessel, the small steamer Quest, previously had been used by the English explorer, Sir Ernest Shackleton, on his South | Pole_expeditions. Aside from acung as chief of the party, Knutsen sought traces of |the Eskimo tribes which once in- habited the region believed to be the most nothernmost dwelling place of man. Skeletons, artifacts and home sites of the ancient tribes were uncovered and quanti- ties. of hitherto unknown scientific data were collected —but war brought the expedition to an end. After the German invasion of Norway in April, 1940, Knutsen was permitted to return to Greenland to continue his studies, because he was an American citizen. . Finally obliged to abandon the expedition because of the difficulty of obtain- ing supplies Knutsen joined the, United States Coast Guard Cutter Northland, which once plied Al-, askan waters, and was brought to the United States. His expedition vessel was taken to Norway by its crew, where it now is interned.

Notes and photo- graphs of the expedition were pub- lished in the September edition of Netiocnal Geographic Magazine this year. Knutsen married Miss Alice Coen, a nicce of Delegate Anthony J. Dimond, Alaska’s representative in Congress last January. Mrs. Knut- sen remained at their home in Rhode Island when her husbahd left for Alaska. A guest at the Hotel Juneau.
