BYRD'S ENERGENCY EQUPMENTVARES Material Was Chosen Care- fully to Meet Greatest Needs With Lowest Weight. | | 6 l By Radio to The Star and the New York Times. | LITTLE AMERICA, Antarctica, No- vember 20.—The material taken in the plane onComd r. Byrd's polar flight consists largely of supplies and equip- | ment which might be needed in the; event of a forced landing. If it were not that this contingency— remote, it is hoped—must be provided for, the load would be lighter. So, most of the supplies which are being taken are for this purpose, sledges, food, clothes, cooker and even emergency ra- | dio and medical equipment. Food is the heaviest item in the list, as enough must be taken to provide for four men for three months It weighs about 800 pounds.: Then comes clothing, weighing about 300 pounds; camping equipment, weighing a_little over 100 pounds; traveling equipment, including sledges, weighing 95 pounds: navigation _instruments, weighing 20 pounds: radio gear, weighing 68 pounds. | and medical equipment, weighing 4! pounds. | Studied Lists Carefully. Comdr. Byrd went over these lists | time and again this Winter, consulting | various members of the expedi‘ion most | directly concerned to make sure not | only that nothing essential was over- | looked but also that the amount to be | taken might be brought down to_ the ! minimum_ weight. Things have hecn | taken out of the original containers, and put in lighter containers reduced in every way consistent with safety. A forced landing on the plateau would mean a long walk home and Byrd made his plans to meet this extreme emer- £onCY. Food Is, of course, the most vitally mportant part of the emergency equip- ment. Man-hauling is the hardest kind | of work. and a ration on which men can keep their strength and still pull Sledge-loads must not only be sufficient | in quanity but contain necessary nutri- | tional elements. The emergency ration for the plane | consists of pemmican of the same kind used so successfully by Amundsen_and | used by the trail parties of the Bvrd { expedition: biscuit containing many | valuable food elements, powdered milk. sugar, peanut butter, bacon, condensed soup, Tolls, Taisins, tea, cocoa, chocolate and salt. This ration will provide 36 ounces per man per.day. Clothes Meet Tests. ‘The clothes have been selected also to meet all conditions on the trail and | Comdr. Byrd made up his list after | experimenting all Witter and a'so using the experience of men who have been on the trail. Each man has a fur parka and fur pants, sleeping bag, woolen parka, woolen pants, light windproof pants and parka, windproof shirt, woolen underwear, sweater, fur hat. woolen helmet, scarf, mukluks, ski boots, canvas | boots, caribou socks, moccasins, woolen socks, windproof socks, mitts of several kinds, face, masks, safety belt and pulling harness: also towel, sewing kit, knife, snow glasses, Crampons, COmPpass and a few other articles. This clothing has been varied so'that after a day of pulling and becoming * soaked with perspiration the men may put on dry clothing and so far as pos- sible avoid the wet which has made polar travel so uncomfortable and even dangerous. % The camping outfit consists of & tent, & czegka-cooker using a primus stove. aluminum soup bowls, enameled cups, ‘wooden spoons. primus stove cleaner, needles, 10 gallons of gasoline for the stove, boxes of solidified alcohol tablets to light the stove, matches, snow knife, saw, shovel, ice ax and wire. The_traveling equipment consists of | two sledges and canvas tanks to hold | the loads, sled meter, rawhide sails for sleds, bamboo poles to be used crossing | crevasses, skis and ski poles, straps and repair gear for the skis, one pair snow- shoes, three lengths of alpine‘rope with vicinity of the South Pale, is pictured here in the upper left.

AMERICA, Antarctia, No- vember 29.— Richard Evelyn Byrd, leader of the South Polar flight, em- barked on the fourth great adventure he set off on the expedition to the | Antarctic. He has flown over the| Arctic wastes on two expeditions, in-| cluding his flight over the North Pole; | he has flown across the Atlantic, and | now he is pointing for the nether tip of the earth. Retired from the Navy before the | because of an injury to his foot during Annapolis days, “desk duty” during the World War. However, he literally talked himself into | the Air Corps, where he became a pro- ficient pflot before being assigned to | an air base at Halifax for the duration | of the war. World Figure in Aviation. He was credited with first lufl[esung‘ the round-the-world flights by the NC type naval aircraft, but other duties kept him from going. Meanwhile, he | had perfected instruments for navi- gating airships and in 1924 his work was recognized by a congressional act | promoting him to the rank of lieuten- ant commander. He first flew in the Arctic on a of exploration to Greenland with ald B. McMillan in 1925. In the follow- VETERANS OF AIR FORM CREW FLYING WITH BYRD OVER POLE| Balchen, June and McKinley All Have!

While with the fleet he was com- mended for excellent work in the engine room outside of aviation duty. After a year with the fleet, he was ent to Lakehurst as the only heavier- than-air pilot to test naval parachutes and fly for the Navy Parachute School. Then he was transferred to Anacostia as pilot with the late Comdr. Rodgers of Hawalian flight fame on Rodgers' inspection trips along the Atlantic Coast. On one of these flights, a long one | to Medialone Key, Cuba, they had | | trouble on the way back while half way between Havana and Key West. They were flying a Vought seaplane. It was raining and water got into the carbure- | tor and clogged one of the jets, threat- | ening them with a forced landing in the dangerous strait. June crawled out of the cockpit, over the wing and down to the pontoon | where he hung with one hand and chocked the air intake with his helmet so that the increased suction would pull the water through the jet and clear it. It worked, but he had a hard job climbing back to the cockpit and cut his hands badly on the wires. Exploit With Ambulance Plane.

C., FRIDAY, CAMERA T0 CREATE ANTARGTI NOSAE TR Constantly Changing Range of Vision Adds Difficulties to Strip Mapping.* BY CAPT. ASHLEY C. McKINLEY, Aerial Surveyor of the Byrd Antarctic Expedition. By Radio to The Star and the New York Times. LITTLE AMERICA, Antarctica, No- vember 29.—The photographic survey during the flight to the South Pole from Little America will, if successful, make a record of this region which can be returned to civilization and studied at leisure by those who are interested in the formation of the South Polar Continent. Such a survey is difficult because elevations will be constantly changing. The work must be done in cold more severe than is usually encountered at home in a surveying flight, and every moment in the photographer’s time must be utilized to the best advantage. Such fiights are not repeated and there will | be no opportunity to make good defi- ciencies in the record. Probably no flight ever offered so great an opportunity to demonstrate the value of aerial photography as a surveying method. Here is a virgin couniry, a vast unknown plain, heaved ice showing the presence of land beneath it, and a rampart of mountains of which almost nothing is known. Mosaic Strip Map of 1, Miles. We hope all this will recorded, made into a mosalc strip map and brought back for the geologist, the glaciologist and others to pore over and decipher the meaning of its contours. Aside from the pleasure of flying over such an unknown land, there is the pleasure of contributing something new and of value to scientific knowledge, even though the one who records it, as in this case, is incapable of inter- | preting its symbols. As a task it should probably be unique, as there has never been made a single strip map 1.600 miles long on | one fiight. One must keep one's fingers crossed and hope that nothing jams, for a defect in the mechanism of the camera at such a critical time or some other interruption would be quite suffi- clent to impel a harassed surveyor to jump out on the nearest peak and, as our columnists say, end it all. But, if everything goes well, it will be a map which in length and content will be new and of great value. It is always rash to predict what may be done in exploration. Aiming of Camera on Angle. ‘The camera is aimed through holes in either side of the plane where canvas flaps have been made to fasten around it to keep out the icy wind. Pictures will be made of one side of the route going out and of the other coming back. if the same route is taken, and as they are taken at an angle they will cover a large territory.

The mosaic is made of overlapping photographs laid and pasted on a mount or base on which has been plotted all existing control data. Controls may be defined as all data used to fix points on which to construct.a mosaic or line- ma p. 3 ‘These data are always related to some point located on the earth's surface and an exactly accurate ey cannot be made with it. The on each pho- tograph are matched with like images contained on the next photographic strip, in this manner forming a com- posite picture of the entire area con- tained in the exposed film. ‘The first we hope, will show the great Ice Bar- rier and Little America. Then the strip starts across the Barrier. While most of the Barrler is flat, there are many rises and depressions, crevasses and sastrugi, all of which will | help the glaciologists to determine the general character of this great sheet of ice and possibly what underlies it. All details will be shown to scale in the aerial photographs. At about 400 miles from the base the glacerized mountains with bare rock extending through the ice will appear in the photographic strip, These photographs will greatly in- | terest geologists. The photographs, tak- en at 20 degrees from the horizontal, will include the horizon appearing about 12 degrees from the top of each pho- tograph. @ The length of the area covered on each picture will vary from 42 miles at ;.0':0 feet altitude to 132 miles at 10,000 eet. ‘The flight, as planned, will average about 5,000 feet above the surface so that the strip will cover an area about 300 miles long and 81 miles wide. Exploration aerial mapping is nec- cessarily conducted under much more difficult circumstances than mapping in a civilized country. The polar fl\“ht will be especially complicated in this ! way, as the plane will fiy at vai g | altitudes, necessitating a varying.time interval between exposures so as to ob- tain the proper overlap. ’ In other words, the surveyor must calculate his altitude and make ad- | Justments between each picture and the intervals between exposures are only two minutes long. To obtain sufficient data to control | the maps to be made from the photo- graphs there must be recorded be- tween the exposures the altitude tem- perature, ground speed, dead reckoning, any observations Comdr.

Fortunately the flight passes over Capt. Roald Amundsen’s old route of the Pole so that his records of ground elevations can be used to determine ap- proximately, in conjunction with our barometric readings, our height above the earth’s surface. Capt. Amundsen's | observations are being checki as the mountains Dr. Gould of the geological party. ‘The strips ing started at Little | America, which is_accurately located, | and ending at the Pole, the two points | 't:‘l“ serve to control the ends of the| strip. Using Army Air Corps Camera. The aerial camera used on this flight is the regulation United States Army | Alr Corps camera, containing a long roll of paper for recording data, her- mometer, & barograph and a stop-watch. Covers have been attached from the camera apertures in the plane to the cover of the camera to keep out the sub-zero air, which would otherwise come in at 100 miles an hour. These covers may keep the aerial surveyor from ending up with frozen hands, as| mgst of the work must be done without gloves. Convenient devices have been made in Little America to meet the unusual conditions under which the survey is made. Among them is a stand attached to the camera containing instruments for recording data. ‘This camera contains in each maga- zine, three of which will be carried, 75 feet of hypersensitized panchromatic film 9 inches wide, and takes 110 expo- sures, 7 by 9 inches, on each roll. The camera is semi-automatic, a crank being turned for each exposure, exposed fiim being passed into place, a pressure plate released to allow the film to move freely and reset to hold the film in a perfect focal plane. It also sets the shutter. The camera weighs 34 pounds and is constructed of aluminum. It is made with the same precision as any other surveying instrument. The usual 12- inch focal length lens has been replaced by one of nine-and-a-half-inch focal length in order that the greatest cover- age for the size of the exposed film can be obtained. ‘Three extra rolls of film and a chang- ing bag are being carried in order that pictures can be taken on the return flight. This will make it possible to take 660 pictures during the flight.

June was born on Feb- ruary 12, 1895, near Stamford, Conn. | After attending country school and one | year in high school in Stamford, he learned the trade of machinist and gas engine specialist and went to Providence, I, as agent for a marine motor. | Later he worked in the machine shop of Herreshoffs, the famous builders of yachts, at Bristol, and in the Summer was engineer on & ferry between Bristol and Prudence Island. When Harold Vanderblit's yacht Vagrant was built in 1913, June joined her as engineer. He made a trip from Portland, Me., to the Azores and Lisbon in her, returning to New York by way of Bermuda. He was on three of Mr. Vanderbilt’s yachts, and when one of them was turned over to the Navy, when the United States entered the World .War, June remained on board as en- gineer, with the naval rank of chief machinist’s mate. After three months he was sent to Block Island as repair officer at the repair base, where Harold Vanderbilt was in command. From there he went back to Herreshoffs as inspection officer on Tepairs to destroy- ers, mine sweepers and patrol boats. When the war ended he was Mr. - | vanderbilt’s engineer again until in.1920 | he found he could get aviation training | as a_mechanic and pilot if he rejoined the Navy. Aviation had attracted him since he was & boy in school. So he joined the aviation branch of the Navy and was sent to the Great Lakes train- ing station, where he went through the mechanics ‘school and was instructor on ignition theory and practice and motor theory and also flight mec c. From there he was ferred to National Guard. | | When the United States entered the | | great war McKinley joined the Signal | { Corps Aviation Section. After training in lighter-than-air craft, he was sent to | | France in command of the 12th Balloon | | Company. He saw action on the front | during the American offensives, | “After the war he returned to the | United States and was an instructor in | | dirigibles for three years, and in 1921 he was in command of the lighter-than- | air station at Fort Omaha. He studied | aerial photography in 1923 and was | | later in command of the 21st Photo Section, at Scott Pield, TIl. | Capt.
