FRENGAPOLAR TR START PISTPNED Winter to Be Spent at Spitz-I bergen—Exploration Be- gins in-March. By Wirsless (0 The Star. | PARIS. June 9. Owing to the| eritical fliness of the Norwegian engl- neer, Daniel G. Martens. who design- and was supervising the construe- | tisn of special tractors for the| French, the polar expedition has been obliged to modify it& plans. Lieut. Darcis today, however, di- vuiged his new program. which in | some particulars is more elaborate than the previous. ’ | Instead of leaving France at the end of this month, ax he originally | greater intended, for an immediate crossing | of the polar ice, Lieut Darcis and a score of companions will start about the end of August and will spend the Winter in the northernmost prac- Heable point of Spitzbergen, prob- ably on Danes Island, Begin Trip in March. Trom that point he will commence his two months’ journey at the Arctic daybreak in March. He will be busy throughout the Winter months mak- ing scientific observations and testing his equipment, which not only in cludes motor sledges but two hydro- airplanes. The members of the expedition are enthusiastic over the new plan, as they believe the Winter's experience at Spitzbergen will provide valuable training for the transpolar trip and make success more certain by pro- viding more ‘time for preparation at the Spitzhergen base. Lieut. Darcis declared that prepara- tions are advancing rapidly. The tractors which will be adopted in the place of the Martens types are of a caterpillar variety, and the construc- tor has promised delivery before the ‘end of August. Hydroplanes Soon Ready. The hydroplanes will be delivered in the next few weeks, and other ma- terfals, including food supplies for nearly a vear, are already gathered together at Dunkirk, where a Nor- wegian icebreaker has been chartered | for the voyage. | The expedition will be equipped with a short-wave wireless capabie of com. municating direct America. Asked whether Amundsen’s report that no land had been seen had af- fected the expedition’s hopes, Lieut. Darcie replied | “Not the slightest. In the first place, the fact that Amundsen saw | ne land proves nothing, as when fiy- | ing at high altitudes the snow-covered | land would be indistinguishable from the surrounding ice fields. Further- more, Amundsen was in fog part of the way and might have passed over land during that time. | “*Moreover, Amundsen could survey | only a narrow strip, while we can make soundings all along the route and modify our course accordingly if shallows indicate the proximity of Jand on one side or the other.” | (Copyright. 1926, by the New York Times Co. ang St. Louls Post-Dispateh.) | THREE YOUT;!S ADMIT : ATTACK UPON GIRL, 20 Tlinole Judge to Pronounce Sen- tence After Further Hearing Next Tuesday. By the Aseociated Prass. STCAMORE, 111, June % —Pleas of | guilty were entered yesterday by | three youths charged with having made a criminal attack on Miss Doro- try Westervelt, 20, a fellow student at_the . Northern 'Illinois Teachers’ College at Da Kalb. The youths, Leonard Rich, 21; Emer- son Wilson, 21, and Stanley Hunt, | 20, elected to throw themselves to the | legal discretion of one judge rather than to the judgment of 12 jurors. The guilty plea opened the -way | for sentences of from one vear to life | in the penitentiary against each. ‘The gulity pleas, however, did not put an immediate end to the case, as the State asked leave to establish | proof of the erime and the defense | attorneys desire to introduce miti- gating clrcumstances in an effort to gain lighter punichment for the yeuths. Judge Fuiton set June 15 ar the time for this hearing, after which he_i= expected to pronounce sentence. Mise Westervelt, who claims that | the threa vouths tnok her for an | antomobila ride ona Sunday night sev. | eral weeks ago and then attacked her, | will be a witness at next week’s hearing, it was announced, as will a girl esmpanion, Lillian Gray, who also went on the ride, but left befors the attack. $15,000 GEMS STOLEN.
