gined Detroiter, as soon as possible.
The Alaskan, which had made

mander of the expedition. and Lieu
tenant Carl B. Eielson, pilot. were
starting out on the fourth and final
trip to Point Barrow. One wing,
the propeller and the landing gear
were damaged. 1t was intended to
begin the exploration flights over
the blind spot" in the Arctic Ocean
when the Alaskan reached Point
Barrow.
Success of the attempted flight
with the Detroiter depends largely
on the ability of Pilot Eielson and
Captain Wilkins to pick the best
place to cross the Brooks range OF
mountains. It was pointed out that
use of Anaktuvuk Pass would per-
init the plane to cross the noun
tains which in other places range
from 5000 to 5000 feet in elevation.
Major Thomas G. Lanphier and
Sergeant c. N. Wisely, flying the De-
troiter, were obliged to return to
Fairbanks because the heavily load
ed plane was unable to rise to a
height sufficient to cross the range
when they set out April 20 to find
Captain Wilkins and Eielson after
they had not been heard from for
several days.
