There, 1,500 pounds of supplies and food and 1,000 pounds of pre- cut hut (generator house) dropped free-fall to Upper Taku Glacier. The first 1950 drops were more successful than previous ones with a PBY, as the R-4D could drop from an elevation of only 100 feet All of the 40 bundles hit on the snow slope only a few yards from the camp site. All landed In fine condition, except one stiuil bundle of lumber, according tu Maynars M. Miller JIRP field director He expeditio members—Robert Forbes and Fred erick A.

Many of these bases will be utilized by the various scientific teams this season, and four new camps will be established in 1950. These will include a sum- mer-long micro-meteorological sta- tion on the west side of the ice field above Lemon Glacier. ‘The JIRP expedition combines re- search in the field of pure sciency with practical studies, Miller pointed out. Although it is a civilian opera- tion, the Juneau Ice-Field Research Project is sponsored in large mea- sure by the Office of Naval Re- search and the various armed serv- ices, as well as by the American Geographical Society, with the cooperation of the U.
