How he followed in the footsteps of Ulysses about the shores of the Medi- terranean and the Aegean Seas and found time for some difficult s as well was told to members National ~Geographic Society night by Richard Halliburton in address at the Washington Audi- torium. M Halliburton climbed Mount Olympus, fabled home of the Greek gods, his party being the fourth ever to conquer that peak. He visited Delphi, seat of the famous oracle in ancient times; scaled Mount Parnas- sus; and then, starting from Ithaca. where Ulysses lived, retraced the route of that famous wanderer. He put in at the Island of Skyros, where Achiles had lived, and from there turned toward the site of Troy. Be- fore visiting the ruins, however, he swam the Hellespont as Leander is re- puted to have swum it, and as Lord Byron did swim it in 1818, Mr. Halliburton said that he found the Island of Jerba, Ulysses’ “Lotus Land,” a fascinating place well worthy of its traditions. The remain- der of the journey took him to the shores of Sicily, the western coast of Italy, to a small island near Malta, and finally back to Ithaca. One of his disillusionments, the speaker said, was the discovery that Scylla is 8 miles from Carybdis, and that the passage can be made without the slightest danger. .
