AMUNDSEN OVER
NANSEN'S TRAIL
Off From Nome To Try
Drifting Over Top of
World

SAN FRANCISCO, September 2
Trails blazed across the Arctic ice
pack a quarter of a century ago by
Fritiof Nansen, Norwegian explor.
er. were expected to be followed, fol
a distance, by Nansen's fellow coun-
tryman, Captain Roald Amundseni
discoverer of the South Pole, when
he left Nome, Alaska, recently on an
attempt to drift across or near the
North Pole.
Nansen, in 1895, attempting the
same drift, sailed around Russia and
Siberia and locked his boat, the
Fran. in the ice off the New 81
berian Islands, which lie in the Arc
tic north of Siberia. Amundsen, on
leaving Nome, said he planned TO
sail to the same New Siberian Is
lands, let his boat. the Maude, freeze
in the ice and then allow the WINDS
and currents to carry him where they
wished. -.
Explorers theories that an Arctic
Ocean current starts near the New
Siberian Islands, runs through the
Polar sea, across or near the Pole,
and family ends at Greenland, IN
the Atlantic, were used by both Nan
sen and Amundsen as a base upon
which they made their plans.
Existence of the current has been
disputed by many Arctic authorities,
who claimed the wind and not the
current determined the route OF the
ever-drifting Polar ice. hansen, one
of the first advocates of the theory,
pointed to the fact that wreckage
from the exploring craft, the jean
cite. DESTROYED near the New Siberian
Islands, was found two years after
the wreck along the Greenland coast
A Throwing stick used by Alaskan
Eskimos was found, it has been clam,
ed, in driftwood on Greenland
beach. The wreckage and the stick,
it was argued, lodged on an ice tloe
which carried them across the Polar
wastes to Greenland.
Nansen found the drift not as
strong as he expected, mainly be-
cause the Polar basin was much deep
er than he had believed. He also
discovered that the wind determined,
to a great extent, the route of the
ice drifts. The Fran was carried
to within $50 miles of the Pole and
later cleared the ice near Greenland.
When the drifting Fran arrived at
the 82nd parallel, .Nansen attempt
ed to reach the Pole over the ice.
With one companion he left the ship
and, in what has been described as
the most daring sledge journey ever
undertaken, proceeded to the seth
degree, at that time, farthest north
ever reached by man. There he
turned back.
