MANY HOPE TO 1N ROISEVELT ON TR Hundreds Apply for Permis- sion to Share in Big Game Expedition. S teg NEW YORK, April $.—Hundreds of epplications have been received by Col. Theodore Roosevelt and his brother Kermit from persons wish- ing to accompany them on that James Simpson-Field Museum game hunting expedition into Turkestan. They sail Saturday. Col. Roosevelt said yesterday that the adventure-hunting applicants ranged from preachers with mis- sionary intentions, college graduates, hunters and trappers to feminine typists. - One ‘wrote from France. Many came in person from out of town. One young Sioux Indian saved enough to travel overland from Tacoma, Wash. be a cook now in a loeal hotel. Col. Roosevelt also received ma Jetters of advice, together with an assortment of such gifts as special oil for guns, radio equipment and books. But no radio goes along, he sald¥ Temporary Itinerary. He announced as a tentative itin- er subject to change: The Leviathan to England, where the party will spend a few days, com- pleting arrangements and visiting the Lritish Museum for geographic m: terials; thence to Marsellle; b ». & O. boat direct to Bombay, and rail to Rawl Pindl in India. The expedition will proceed by motor transport to Srlhagar, where it will -make the “jump-off.” Packing in by vak and pony, the hunters will cnter through the Leh and Karakoram T'asses, turn dus west to the Pamirs snd then strike north toward Yark- hand. He said their subsequent course was problematical. Col. Roosevelt said their arsenal would consist of rifles exclusively. They will carry.-ne revolvers. Rifies and Hounds in Equipment. The rifles, Col. Roosevelt sald, were somewhat lighter than those his father carrted in Africa for rhi- noceros. They are equipped With telescope sights and Army slings. Two thousand to three thousand rounds of ammunition will also go from here, he said. Four» cougar ahead cougar hounds, and bear trails, were sent with the first ' detachment, sailed last Saturday in charge . Cherrie, Field Museum expert, Who is to accompany the expedition. Two of the hounds came from Mo tana and two from.the Paul Rainey pack in Mississippl. The Leh Pass route, it is estimated, will add 10 days' extra marches over the Hunza Pass, to which the British authorities were unable to issue a permit on the ground that all available native car- riers had been engaged by another hunting expedition. 1t was learned here today that this earlfer party ‘comprised two Dutch explorers, the Visser brothers, who were accompanted by two Swiss Al- pine guides and a French diplomat- sportsman. —_— CITIZENS IN ARLINGTON HEAR GOOD ROADS PLEA Bond Project Explained to Claren- don and Fort Myer Heights Groups. tralned to Special Dispatch to The Star.
