of his second expedition to the south pole, which he expects to start on Sept. 25 from Boston. Colonel Ruppert, owner of the New' York Yankees and ore of Manhattan's leading producers of 3 2 beer is reported to be principal backer of the second jaunt to little America. When asked if this were true. the colonel said simply that he is one of 14.000 backers of the expedition. "Do you expect to send some of your beer down to Little America and put it on ice?” he was asked. "No," said Colonel Ruppert. "but I hope to organize a ball team at the

We will make only one flight over the pole this time, but we will do ten times as much flying as on the last expedition. We expect to explore and map a territory covering half a million miles.”. Admiral Byrd said he is extremely anxious to see what has happened to the equipment he left in Little America. There were three or four houses, two airplanes, and several caches of gasoline. “You must remember,” Byrd said, "that Little America is in

the full flood of an ice age, and that an ice cap covers the entire area: Our equipment probably is deep under snow. In the first two weeks after we had built cur houses before, they were snow’ed under and we could get to them only through tunnels. Admiral Byrd said his men, about seventy in all, will not be able to work under an NRA cooe. “We'll be working all the time.” he said. “Our recreation consist of listening to radio broadcasts. Playing poker for cigaraets. playing bridge, spinning yarns and reading. We are taking along anew library. Mast of the books are adventure stories. On the last expedition we had

one bridge game that lasted six months.” About twenty of those who were on the last expedition will accompany the admiral this year. Among these will be Paul Siple. the Boy Scout who was taken before. Siple will go in the capacity of a biologist. Admiral Byrd expects to reach Little America about the first of next January. He will return to the United States. He hopes, in June, 1935. Ry United Vrrs * WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.—Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn Byrd detailed his plans today for his two-year Antarctic exploration trip, on which he plans to fly

"beyond the pole,” and explore ah area as large as the United States and Mexico combined. Byrd, who called at the White House to bid President Roosevelt god-by. said he would sail from Boston Sept. 25. ror Little America, the base he established on his last Antarctic expedition. The climax of that trip was a flight to the south pole and back. “I am going to attempt to fly beyond the pole this time." Byrd said. “That is where the great uncharted area lies. As long as there is such a vast territory unknown by man existing on the face of the globe. I believe it necessary to investigate." Byrd will have in his party seventy men and 150 sledge dogs. Two

ships, the old revenue cutter Bear and the supply ship Pacific Fir will carry 14,000 separate items of PRIEST HURTJN CRASH Ft. Wayne Cleric Is in Serious Condition at Elwood. R;/ United Prms ELWOOD.
