By the Associated Press. SAN PEDRO, Calif,, October 13.— Two unnamed stowaways rode the high seas today Antarctic bound, with Comdr. Richard E. Byrd, aviator-explorer, but if the predictions of “old salts” here mean much there is little glamour about the trip for the pair. The old-time seamen snickered when they heard the news. Life on a whaler is a hard one at best, they said, and for stowaways it is a ceaseless grind. The stowaways will “work” their passage b nd plenty,” the seamen believed. Discovery of the self-invited passe: gers was learned of here when Capt. Oscar Nilsen, commanding the whaler C. A Larsen, flagship of the Byrd ex- ploration fleet which sailed from here Wednesday night, wirelessed A. Grove Knutsen. Knutsen, agent for the Ross Sea Whaling Co., which owns the Lar- sen, said Capt. Nilsen's message gave no further information. Even if the stowaways fail to reach the South Polar region, they will get to see Wellington, New Zealand, where the Larsen first fouches port about four | weeks hence. There tirey may be turned | loose to shift for themselves, Larsen said, | or they may be invited to continue the | voyage by the commander, who loves | venturesome spirits. It was believed the two secreted them- selves in the machinery-filled hold of | the Larsen and remained undiscovered | until yesterday. | ‘Their attempt marked the second of | adventure seekers to gain a place in the Byrd expedition, which is expected to be in the South Polar region for two years.
