MOSOOW, September 30.—The mo- notonous routine of work and relaxa~- tion for the four unwashed (it's too cold for baths) members of the Soviet polar party, camping on a drifting loe floe, is described by their radio oper- ator, Ernest Krenkel. Falling temperatures were adding to inconveniences of their existence. Cav- iar, cheese and butter froze so hard they had difficulty eating them and joe encased the tiny hut in which they live, At breakfast, Krenkel related, they soaked their toast in water so the crunching as they chewed would not awaken the party leader, Ivan D. Papanin, sleeping at that hour. “I am on watch until midnight,” Krenkel said. “Then I awaken Eu- gene Federov, the camp magnetologist, who takes the morning weather observ- ations. “A voice from Rudolf Island asks the weather report. We exchange news, telling what we hear on the radio.” “Federov remains in the tent or goes to the ice hut, where he busies himself over his charts. For myself, there comes the happy moment. I go into my sleeping bag.” “About 9 am.

Hydrobiologist Only Member Of Polar Camp Who Washes Shirsov, hydroblologist, awaken,” Krenkel said. “Shirsov, to train himself to get up quickiy, has a bar of chocolate above his head. The man who awakens him has a stop watch. If Shirsov's feet are not on the floor in five minutes, the chocolate is given to some one else. “Because of the need to conserve fuel, .only Shirsov, who spends his whole day at scientific work in the tent, washes his face once every two weeks, He is dirty from oil and grease and his hands are blue from the icy ‘water. But he is obtaining interesting work from his observations.” { Kenkel told of ‘conversations at tea time turning to Spain, China and Moscow. He said the campers listen regularly to Moscow news broadcasts. “At night our dog cries in its sleep like it was having a nightmare,” he added. “All around, 1t is so quiet you can hear ice cracking in the distance.” 2-P¢.
