POLE OF RELATIVE INACCESSIBILITY ~ IN RELATION TO THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MAY 9, 1926—PART 1. NOVAYA i 17 X el 7% 7 180 BORDERING ¥ ARCTIC LANDS When Capt. George Hubert Wil- kins reached 73 degrees 30 minutes north latitude in the Arctic Ocean beyond Barrow in his monoplane, his feat was halled as a great achievement great for explora- tion, great for aviation. Yet, for several years before the war, a German steamship line ran excursion boats well over the eightieth degree of latitude, around Spitzbergen. Thousands of persons made the trip. “If degrees of latitude were a true measure of an _explorer's hievements,” says Vilhjalmur Stefansson, one of the three men to cross the inmost 500.mile circle of the inaccessible regions, “then there are hundreds of old ladies who have accomplished more not- —— /.3’5“7’-—(; ’|~Aec§smuw\ THE INACCESSIBLE POLE—WHAT IS ACCOMPLISHED IN ARCTIC EXPLORATION l PREPARED BY THE AMFRICAN GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY (Copyright, 1926, by North American Néwspaper Alliance.) able feats than any explorer who has worked north of Alaska. It is about as difficult to get to 70 de- grees north of Alaska as it is to get to 80 degrees around Spitz- bergen.” The Pole of relative inaccessi- bility—for Capt. Wilkins hopes to prowe that it i{s “relative” and not truly an inaccessible Pole—is the center of that reglon forever barred to ships by the Arctic ice. It is possible to come almost with- in 500 miles of the geographical North Pole by ship, in comparative comfort. It is possible to establish a land base well within 500 miles as Peary did on Grant Land before his successful dash to the geo- graphical Pole. About 700 miles is the limit of approach by ship to the Pole of rel. ative inaccessibility. The nearest known land is nearly 600 miles away—Ellesmere Island. Ships have come nearer both Poles, but not under their own power—drift- ing, locked in the ice. The map shows the position of the Pole of relative inaccessibility— the explorer's Pole—427.99 miles south of the geographical North Pole on the 160th degree of longi- tude west. The innermost circle, over 850 miles in diameter and in. cluding over 575,000 square miles of territory, has never been pene- trated by any human being.

Plane Keeps in Radlo Touch With Party at Fairbanks. BY FREDERICK LEWIS EARP. Special Correspondent of The Star and North American Newspaper Alliance. FAIRBANKS, Alaska, May 8.—The Detroiter i off for the center of the unexplored polar ice pack, with Point Barrow the only stop. The gigantic monoplane of the Detroit Arctic ex- pedition hopped off here at 8:10 this morning (2:10 p.m. Eastern standard time), with Capt. George Hubert ‘Wilkins, commander; Maj. Thomas G Lanphier as navigator, and Lieut. Charles Wisely as pllot. She took the alr to the cheers of a large crowd of the townsfolk whe had rushed to the landing field to see her off. The fleld looked a little soft when the’ pilot, Charles Wisely, ex- amined it at 6 o'clock this morning, but -a slight breeze helped the big ship to clear the runway. With the explorers waving good-bye, the De. troiter turned sharply to the right reached out for elevation and then disappeared among the fleecy clouds on a course due Northward to Point Barrow. Radio Picks Up Reports. Less than an hour out Capt. Wilk- ins flashed back word that the plane had sighted the Yukon River, another hour and Howard Mason, chief radio- man of the expedition, heard the com- mander’s report as the Detroiter pass- ed over Wiseman, 200 miles north of here. Interest in the compact but efficient set which is picking the Detroiter's messages from the air increased, if that were possible, as the big plane neared the critical part of its journey -—the cloud-masked Endicott crags. Mason transferred the sending set from the wrecked Alaskan to the De- troiter yesterday so that communica- tion from the plane may continue well into the mountains. During the latter portion of the journey, Waskeys | Mason's assistant at Barrow, may hear the ship and relay word back. This is the system which will be used for the ice flight. Howard Mason is one of the most expert amateurs in the United States, and Robert ‘Waskey put his capacity beyond doubt on the trying overland journey. Once the Detroiter sets out from Bar- row, these two men will be the two links between it and the world. Ilarl Rossman, correspondent of The Star and the North American Newspaper Alllance, will be the middle element at Barrow; Mason and I will take their. messages here. Both Get Signals. Mason took his portable set to Esther Creek, 13 miles northwest of Falrbanks proper, this morning, to insure better reception. Technical Sergt. C. G. Clark listened in at the Army radio station in Fairbanks, and both operators were successful in get- ting Capt. Wilkins' signals. Success in Week Possible. Within the week our radio system may carry the answer to a riddle of the ages. When Capt. Wilkins heads into the Polar sea, probably in a day or two, he does not expect to return until he has determined whether land exists in that icelocked basin north of 73. Charles M. Wiseley, reserve lieu- tenant, United States Army and former staff sergeant in the air serv- ice at Selfridge Field, Mich., will pilot the ship on the ice flight, and Maj. Lanphier will act as navigator. The two men_know each other's methods and the Detroiter. It is possible that the Detroiter may not touch at Barrow on its return trip from the unexplored region. Capt. ‘Wilkins expects to consume the avail- able aviation gasoline on his explora- tion trip, which would mean that the plane, after a return to Barrow, would be compelled to walt until a ship ar- rived with more gasoline before re- turning to Fairbanks. It is probable that a ship would not be able to pene- trate the ice until July or August. Salvage “Gas” Usable. At Beechey Point there is a store of 400 gallons of commercial gasoline, the salvage of a schooner wrecked in the ice. The gasoline was tried by Capt. Wilkins in the Alaskan and proved useable, though it diminished the power of the plane. Beechey Point is about 150 miles east of Barrow on the Arctic coast and the flyers may end their trip into the ice there, re. fuel with the commercial gasoline and return immediately to Fairbanks. Capt. Wilkins, recovered from his snow blindness but still carrying his broken right arm in a sling, was hope- ful that ill-fortune had ceased to fol- low the party when he took off yes- terday. “We have had three disasters; trag- edy has been our lot, but we are carrying on and with the hearty as- surances I received yesterday from Detroit, we hope to win,” the leader of the expedition said. The Eskimos in Barrow are eager to greet the successor of the Alaskan. The legend that it s larger than the familiar Alaskan is regarded a little indulgently by the more sophisticated e Rt onkasanid ast | nativesy the larger circle with its radius of 500 miles. Its content is 785,400 square miles, out of which these ex- plorers have taken only small wedges. In this map ‘“degrees of diffi- culty” replace degrees of latitude. The degrees are separated by the same distance—about 70 land miles, —but the “degrees of difficulty’are arranged for explorers and center on the Pole of relative inaccesibility rather than on the geographical Pole, the center of the circles of latitude. In the great inaccessible region there are estimated to be over 1,000,000 square miles of territory never seen by men. What islands, great or small, may lie within that enormous expanse? What answers to the inquiries of science? night, but they are impatient to see if the story is true. When they were warned to expect the new “tingmezon,” watchmen were set by the natives to listen for the droning of the motors all day long and a day at Barrow during this sea son is long.

VETERAN SEES PASSING OF “IRON MEN" PITCHERS Joe McGinnity Says Hurlers Now Do Not Grasp Ball Properly or Keep Busy. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, May 8s—Joe Mec- Ginnity, who claims to have thrown more curve balls than any other two pitchers in organized base ball, says that “iron men™ have passed out of the major leagues because most mod- ern hurlers grasp the pellet improp- erly and fail to take the mound often enough. McGinnity, whose pitching career extended over a period of 32 years, maintains that “curve pitching, prop- erly done, is no greater strain on the arm than fast ball pitching.” “After pitching a game, the young fellows of today lay off for a week,” he’continued. “I don't think I ever ‘went a season in the majors without pitching at least 50 games.” McGinnity was first called the “iron man” when he pitched six games in seven days and won them all. He has signed this season as a pitching coach with the Brooklyn Nationals. —— Never Looks Her Age. From the London Punch. 3 She—That's the Trevor girl. Fancy, she’s only 18!

The cruising radfus of 1,600 miles, however, would leave Comimander Byrd only the scantest margin with which to face adverse winds and other difficultie: other hand, if he lost any y. on his trip to the Pole, he could cancel the flight to Peary Land, and fly straight back to Spitzbergen. This would save 200 miles, making the round trip to the pole 1,300 miles. Several factors might have contrib. uted to Commander Byrd's decision besides the apprehension that delay might result in his being beaten to | the Pole by Amundsen. Fogs begin to rise in May, and are a bane to explorers, both on land and in the air. The sooner the flight is made, the less the risk from this source. It is the plan of Commander Byrd to try for the Pole first. and to make a brief inspection of Peary Land from the air on his return to Spitzbergen, If he locates open, level flelds of snow he will be able, immediately after his | return from the Polar trip, to take | up the search for unknown land.
