Met. 0764 By Cable to The Star and New York Times DUNEDIN, New Zealand, March 24.— ‘While 10,000 citizens of Dunedin waved farewell from the water front and mer- chant craft in the harbor set up a din | with their whistles, the bark City of New York, flagship of Rear Admiral Byrd, sailed Saturday for Tahiti on the | homeward voyage with 50 members of his Antarctic expedition. How great a hold the expedition has on the imagination and affections of the people was shown by the enthusiasm of the farewell accorded the little ship. ‘Water Front Is Crowded. The water front plers and the ships {in port were crowded with thousands of people when, at 3 o'clock, the City of New York cast off in tow of the tug Dunedin. The ship left port to the ac- | companiment of cheers, the waving of handkerchiets and the shrieking of steamer whistles. Every headland was crowded with waving well-wishers. Hundreds of au- tomcbiles raced along the harbor-side road with fluttering handkerchiefs in +waving hands, thé riders anxious to keep company with the departing ship. The little town of Port Chalmers, in the lower harbor, which had been the home of the ships during the Winter months, joined in calling a farewell. Here Admiral Byrd and many friends left the ship as she for the open sea. As the ships passed Tairaroa Head they plunged and rolled to heavy swells. Six miles off shore in the the Cltmf New York, in POl the towboat's warning whistle, cast off the tow rope. The fore and aft sails were set and steadied and assisted the engines to drive her ahead via Tahiti and Panama, on the homeward journey. Today Admiral Byrd and members of his party wfio will sail later, the majority on the steamship Eleanor Bolling in a few days and others with him on a liner to rejoin both ships at Panama, attended service at the First Presbyterian Church of New Zealand. Among those with the admiral were Charles E. Lofgren, his personnel offi- cer; Harold I. June, one of his aviaf pilots; Capt. Gustave L. Brown, master of the Eleanor Bolling, and Innes ‘Taylor, Work for Good-Will Acclaimed. Thankfulness to Divine Providence for the safe return of the Byrd Ex- pedition was expressed in prayers at the ser , which was held in com: memoration of the eighty-second an- niversary of the founding of the Province of Otago.
