FROM PETERSBURG THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA WEATHER ENDS JUNEAU ICE CAP Winter reached the Juneau Ice Cap a little earlier than expected, but found the rugged young scien- tists of the Juneau Icefield Research Project (JIRP) already firfishing their activities for the 1850 season. Hiking out this week, Geologists Paul V. Livingston and Arthur K. Gilkey reported 15 inches of new snow in three days early this month, but say ice conditions for ski- landings are excellent. A ski-equipped C-47 aircraft ar- rived here yesterday morning, com- ing in from Gustavus where they landed late Thursday after a turbu- lent flight from Elmendorf A.-F. Base. The crew still was weather- bound this noon, hoping to make the final flights to the Ice Cap this weekend. The ski-plane will bring out the four men still on the ice cap, and several tons of equipment, inelud- ing the heavy machinery used to drill for an ice core in the glacier. Field Director Maynard Miller went yesterday to Seattle, where he is to lecture this evening. He plans to return next week to finish the season's work. Before boarding a Pan. American airplane yesterday, Miller again ex- pressed the appreciation of the. American Geographical Society of ! New York, chief JIRP sponsor, for the cooperation of many individuals and agencies in Juneau. Help by the U.S. Forest Service was especially important, he said that agency having made a ware- house available, loaned the services of their expert Tony Thomas, and cooperated in communications, be- lation for the entire city.
