The inside picce rose until for a time it threatened to turn over, and if it had done so it would have raised havoc with the ships. It might conceivably have Bolling, as the City of Ne side of her, was up against the drift ice. And to the nortk the two big cakes of w the dock and the slope, were hi roken pieces of ice, on one of which | was a sled loaded with coal bags and two empty freight sleds, whic! | slid down a slope into the the big crack widened a ski a heavy picce of linamented wood, down to the smashed ice between the cakes and another pedestal hung over the edge. One se of the house toppled over into the water. Everything in Movement. Everything was in movement, there was just enough commotic the water partly caused by the b up of the slope and dock and partly by a slight swell to make the enormous cakes sway and lift their ponderous sides as if to gnaw at us. There was a call for all hands and men_eagerly tumbled over the side to | the broken ice, with not a thought of themselves and intent only on saving their precious material. The most im- portant piece of this was the center wing section of the big Ford plane which lay on the slope of the inner dock cake so far down that it could not be seen from the deck of the Bolling. Without that wing the plane could not be flown. ‘There was need for swift and con- certed action fo get order and safety out of this chaos, and Dick Byrd the occasion, cool as he alw: when something goes wrong. He was one of the first men out on the ice and his first thought as always was for his men. Balchen and Bubier were out of sight and for a moment there was fear that they had been lost. Byrd instructed Capt. Brown of the Bolling to blow the whistle and after a few blasts Balchen and Bubier scrambled out of the Fokker cabin in whi had been working. Byrd, and turned his attention to the danger on the ice. “Life belts on,” he ordered. “I do not want a man out here without a belt on.” When they had been found and put on the watch below had come up, sleepily rubbing their eyes and pulling on their clothes. The lines holding to the dock and barrier were shifted and adjusted as much as possible to take the strain off the cakes. Some one grabbed the pedestal which was totter- ing to the edge of the crack and hauled it to safety. Bill Gavronski, the stow- away on the Bolling, who had been shifted to the New York, lay down, and while others held his legs hd slipped over into the big crack and got hold of the other pedestal and pulled it out. Pieces of house, heavy ' clumsy things which ordinarily would have been moved slowly, were jarred from the ice and to men's shoulders and tossed aboard as if they were match boxes. Sweat poured down their faces and soaked their shirts, They paid no attention to the movement of the ice on which they were standing as it sloped more and more and the crack widened. Rope, guy wire, odds and ends of stuff were thrown over the side under Byrd's direction while he walked about telling them what to save first. He had donned a life belt himself in obedience to his own order after all the others were provided with them, and had a megaphone in his hand so that there would be no possibility of not hearing him in an emergency. Sleds Are Rescued. Getting a section of the house out of the water was something of a job, but Joe Deganahi jumped down on it and thrust his arms into the slush on which it was lying so that he might pass a rope around it. Then he grabbed the hands of those above him and was lifted out and the piece of house was rescued before it had time to get soaked. The sleds which had slipped overboard were lying between two cakes of ice, the nearest of which was stick- ing a few feet out of the water. The first sled was brought up with a hook and while it was held by many hands and the forward sled was held by the line leading over the wreck of the slope to the block ashore, Jim Feury crawled out over the sleds to let the line go. Harry Adams with a line around his waist went down on the lower and smaller cake to help, and after Feury had crawled back over his swaying and insecure pathway, the sleds were brought up to safety and put back to the ship. The sled holding the coal on another cake then un- loaded, while the cakes smashed to- gether. The coal bags were left, but the sled was hauled back to safely. This had no sooner been done than the cake broke up and five coal bags slipped into the er and went 0 the bottom, and t! other bag on a small piece of ice is now heading north for the Ross Sea and New Zealand, but won't go far. Ordered Aboard Bolling. When everything but the center sec- tion of the wing had been brought aboard the Bolling, this w the farthest away from the ship and the most difficult to move becadse of the crack. Byrd ordered all but a few picked men aboard the Bollng. The wing section was on the othe side of crack. Although it is of dw.alumi- um it is heavy because of its size and clumsy to handle. The Lowline holding the ship to the inner piece of ice was then taken in slowly on the winch in an effort to draw the sides of the crack closer together, but al- though a few fect were gained in this way the strain caused the inner cake to tip away from the ship. “Don’t pull any more,” yelled Byrd, “or we may up-end that ice. That is near enough.” z Planks were thrown hastily across < and spikes driven down to ping back. The with snow, twe as they ‘cou an over to the for , take charge of that” called Byrd, and the men lifted the precious bit of wing to their shoulders and walked to the planks. Byrd had been looking over the edge near the planks and saw that it over- hung the ater. Just in front of it was a low cake, lazily drifting up and down. “If this bl cvery one try [to jump on that cake,” he ordered, and then walked around in back of his men so that he would be one of those farthest from safety if anything hap- pened. He did this during all of those two feverish hours, going wherever his men were in any danger, The wing section was lifted quickly and_carried_to_the plank runway on Extreme Care is exercised here in fitting your Oculist’s Prescriptions CLAFLIN 922 14th St. | | - { The top of the gy crack was about 3 feet apart at first, crusned the | York, out- | IBYRD PLANNING TO EXPLORE AREA BEYOND FOURTEEN PEAKS [N I[EE-@{_EAKS UP|considers WoniingGomnphiter BibisD. . Carpenter and Cook Designated for Honors. BY COMDR. R. E. BYRD. By Wireless to The Star and Nef York Times. BAY OF WHALES, January 30.— There are not many good flying days down here on account of the un- natural conditions of visibility where one appears simply to begin a big ‘and indeterminate bowl of misty white which merges into an equally misty . Therefore whenr Cyclone s’ trusted weather maps of our North Pole- expedition told us the weather was O. K. we felt that it would be a pity not to take off. It seemed rather tough to leave with the Eleanor Bolling near us wending through the ice fields, for it we should have a forced landing it would upset | the biggest operation of the expedition, that of unloading the Eleanor Bolling |on the shifing ice of the bay. We gave our plane, the Star and Stripes, the gun at 2:50 o'clock and got off with our heavy load M 30 seconds—thus indi- cating the strength of the ski landing ear and the practicability of getting ff of the ice barrier with a full load. we got some kick when the skis left the ground without breaking and we saw little America looking little, in- deed, as she faded away behind us. Another river was crossed. For this take off we must give Balchen credit. His face and June's showed their pleasure and relief. We were almost immediately looking into unknown areas. To our left was the uncharted coast line of the Barrier Cliffs and ahead and to our right we had a visi- bility of unexplored parts of the barrier surface of at least 40 miles. When condiiions are best down here visibility is extraordinary. In the after part of our small cabin crouched June sit= ting on one of our sleeping bags and busy with the radio. Forward was Balchen gradually getting the plane on the course as the sluggish compass set- tled do Cabin Full of Gear. As lorg as the bright sun would hold we could check the magnetic compass with the sun compass and could be cer- tain of our course. We knew before starting from pilot balloons Haines had sent up to high altitude that we would have a strong wind with us. We were making about 120 miles an hour. The cabin was so full of gear that we could not stand up. I found myself sitting on our Primus stove cooker. It wase necessary to have 700 pounds of equip=- ment in the plane in case of a forced landing. I looked back to see if I could make out the masts of the Eleanor Bolling over the horizon, but could see nothing except icebergs in the blue water. Twenty minutes after our skis left the snow, we sighted a bay in the barrier to our left and to the right for- ward of the beam was a long deep fissure and pressure ridge which indi- cated that there was land somewhere about. After an hour or so we passed a beautiful bay in the ice barrier the mouth of which was several miles wide and 4 or 5 miles deep. Bay Named Hal Flood. We have decided to name this bay “Hal Flood,” after my mother’s broth- er. Shortly afterward there could be seen many miles in the distance to the right some small peaks. In looking over my chart I find the following pencil notation: “Small peak to the right—land may show—looks like it.” We decided that we would investigate that peak later on. The barrier surface on the right began to get higher, which indicated that land was beneath, and on the left, between the plane and the coast line, there was a chaotic mass of crevasses extending for about 20 miles that no foot traveler could make head- way over. ‘We were exploring to the right of our course alone 4,000 square miles an hour of area hitherto unknowa. It occurred to me again how well 1t had paid us to fight our way to the inaccessible spot, now Little America, where at our very doors there are unexplored regions. We have had to cross many hazardous rivers to get there, and there is still one more river to cross—the unloading of the tons of material on the Eleanor Bolling. We went until a snow peak loomed dead ahead. It was Scott Nunataks which it was placed, and in less than a minute it was down on the lower ice cake. Then it was again picked up and carried alongside the ship, a cable was hooked to it and it was drawn up to the deck. This had no sooner been done than both halves of what had been the dock began to move out from the barrier. The drift ice had already shifted considerably and there was open water outside of us, so quickly do things change down here. A heavy snow squall came up, large sticky flakes which melted as soon as they lit on the deck, and it was impossible to see the mass of material piled on the barrier only a few hundred feet away. But overhead there was a pale luminous spot where the sun was trying to break through to enlighten our gray world. The shore ines were cast off, the ice anchors drawn in by the winches, and, fortunately, we did not lose one of them. ‘The two ships, still lashed together, began to drift out inte the bay, and work was immediately begun loading the cargo from the Bolling into the New York so that the Bolling may get back to New Zealand and come down again for another trip before the bay begins to freeze. The remains of our dock drifted out to sea and the last we saw of them they were far away, a pile of pieces of the airplane crates lying on the top of one cake. But we do not need them. Then the fickle Antarctic changed its moeod again. Under the southern wind the sky cleared, the snowfall ended, the sun is now shining warmly while we are edging our way back toward the low part of the barrier in the hope of landing the Ford airplane there. The bay ice is at last moving out and it may be possible for the New York to get much nearer to the base if the low bar- rier point proves untenable or shows signs of breaking. But the work has not stopped and as much is being ac- complished as though our dock had stayed with us a little longer. The leader of an expedition down here has to adapt himself to rapidly changing conditions, and so far he has been able to do so. This gang just refuses to be licked.

Have you tried our Own Make’ lce Cream? IT'S DELI- CIOUS—YOU'LL SAY! OPPOSITE AMBASSADOR, Co/umb/‘a‘5Q4-Z that we were heading for—a bit of bare rock showing on the northern side. The valiant Scott had seen this peak from the sea in 1902 when he had fought his way through some ice packs, and then in 1911 two men had been able to reach it with dog teams after weeks of strug- gling along the coast line. We looked down upon the spot where the explorer, Prestaud, had been stuck in his tent for days in a snowstorm, finally having to dig himself and his dogs out. From then on we were over areas never touched by human feet. We could see a number of peaks running southeast- ward. Scott had named them the Alex- andra Mountains. They were around 1,500 feet high and several of them s_k;owcd bare rocks on the northern side. It is extraordinary how pleasing the weeks of nothing but ice and snow. The snow-covered land from these peaks evidently sloped rapidly to the sea. There were extraordinary terraced effects and the whole area was greatly crevassed. To our left the Ross Sea was frozen over for miles and we noted a large number of ice islands in it. Most of them were round. Some seemed to project up 100 feet from the ice edge. At onc point there was a small glacier coming down to the sea ice and around it was a pond of open water. It looked as if the sea ice there seldom breaks up. It was fairly smooth and not much ridge. With pressure there must be barrier or land to the northward to hold this land. To the northeast there was the appearance of land, but we were catching up with the storm that had passed over Little America the day before and the visi- bility ahead was no longer good. ‘We could get the dim outline of snow- covered land to the east and southward and soon we came to a round mountain on our right, smooth and entirely snow covered. It appeared to be separated from King Edward Land by a channel, but it was very difficult to tell whether or not this channel was at sea level. ‘We were flying at that time about 3,000 feet. Another channel separated this mountain from what appeared to be an island dead ahead. We examined this channel as carefully as possible and it was very evident that the ice to the north and east of this land was sea ice. Appearance of Island. ‘This second mountain had all the appearances of being an island, but this cannot be definitely proved until it is mapped with our mapping camera when the visibility is better than we experi- enced. A few minutes later we began dodging snow squalls. It was too bad, as we wanted to find out whether or not King Edward Land was an island. It was clearer to the northward, so we swung over in that directiont, Again we got the impression of high barrier or snow-covered land well ahead of us. We were now over the frozen Ross Sea and there continued to be a number of large ice islands. Visibility to the southward seemed excellent, so we set our course back to the first peak we had passed and di- rected course to the southward. The alr got very rough here. One bump dropped. us 500 feet. There appeared to be a channel to the northward of Scott Nunataks, so it is possible that King Edward Land is an island. Bal- chen has expressed this opinion. How- ever, it is a point yet to be proved. ‘There was perfect visibility to the south of us. This time June received a radio message from the City of New York that the Eleanor was in sight. That was pleasing. Presently there was an exclamation from Balchen. There was mountain peaks dead ahead and showing a Iot of bare rock. We were then flying at an altitude of 4,000 feet. Soon other peaks appeared to the south- ward, all of them showing bare rock. ‘We must_admit that we got a kick out of this. We had found & new group of mountains. They ran about north and south and in all we found 14 peaks, ex- tending for about 30 miles. 2,000 Above Sea Level. They were not more than 2,000 feet above sea level, but the solid rock certainly looked good down there in the snow. It was apparent that there was little movement of the ice over the land in this area, as there were very few crevasses. This was quite different from the situation around Scotts Nunataks. There was far more bare rock visible here than the peaks we had just left. The first peak lies a little over half a hundred miles from Scotts Nunataks in a west by south direction.

Later on we hope to bring out geologist, Larry Gould, there to make scientific investigations. Some of the rocks were brownish and others much darker. Before we reached the southernmost peak Balchen wrote a note saying that the gas was getting low and that per- haps we had better return so we re- luctantly changed our course for Little America. What is beyond these peaks? We hope to find out on another hop. On account of the splendid visibility the peaks were in sight. For a long time I found myself fre- quently looking back at them and wondering as to which one of the ex- peditions’ friends we would name the group after. There are several who had faith and befriended our expeditions from the beginning when things were most difficult and who had subsequently come to our rescue every time we have gotten in a hole. John D. Rockefeller, jr., is one of these—a man who with his great power stands for progress, steady as a rock in the chaos and tur- moil of life; So his character and name both reminded me of those rocky peaks sticking their heads above the snow. It occurred to me that his real austere life is as little known generally as those peake that man had never be- fore looked upon. to name this group of peaks “Rocke- feller Mountains.” One of the highest peaks we decided to name after “Chips” Gould, the car- penter on both of our polar expeditions. Chips has never been known to stop working during any of his waking hours. Another peak we named after Georg Tennant, the cook, who always cooks on the polar expeditions. It was Ten- nant who wanted to subscribe his meager pay upen our return from the North Pole expedition to help along the deficit. June Receives Radio. About the time this decision was made June received a radio from the City of New York, saying that the Eleanor Bolling had arrived alongside her. Here was the biggest river of the expedition crossed—a steel ship getting safely through the ice of tha Ross Sea alone without losing propeller or rudder or smashing in her sides. Many is the explorer who had been looking askance at our attempt to get an ordinary steel ship down to this region, and we must confess that we have not been unmind- ful of the hazard involved, so three cheers for Capt. Brown, who brought her through. A few moments after this radio was received the engine stop- ped dead. Here was another big kick for us. I looked over the side for a landing place and picked up one of the smoke bombs to throw on to the snow and give us the direction of the wind and something to land by. We were now going down in a spiral. Presently the engine caught again with her pleasing roar. - It seemed that one of the tanks had run dry as Balchen had turned the cock to run the gas out of another tank. At about 8 o'clock we reached reached the Bay of Whales and there was the Eleanor Bolling alongside the City of New York, beth ships up against the barrier. Another big river crossed, for it would have been impossible to unload the Bolling in time if we had to transfer the material across the shifting bay ice. We can now rig a block and tackle on the barrier and haul the heavily loaded sleds up a sloping incline. This is about the only point of the barrier where there is a slope down to the water's edge. It is this point that we have been trying for days to get alongside. The storm had blown some of the ice out so that the ships could buck their way up to the barrier. This was most fortunate. ‘We directed our flight course toward the Bay of Whales and there barrier beneath us, was a dog team. I knew it was Strom Braathen and Ericksen, obeying instructions to pick out a good trail route over the bar- rier to the base that would be free from dangerous crevasses. We landed a few minutes later and found our shipmates very glad to see us, as they had been anxious during the flight. We immediately took a dog team back to the ship, where we are now. The unloading is going mer- rily along, but we will have to watch every step, as the hundred yards of thick ice that slopes from us up to the top of the barrier may break off.
