BYRD FLIES over
THE NORTH POLE
Plane Covers 1,6O0 Miles From
Spitzbergen and Return
in Is Hours.

New York-Commander Richard
Evelyn Byrd flew to the north pole
from Kings Bay, Spitzbergen, and
back, IL Is hours and 80 minutes, de-
monstrating that wings could do in
less than a day what Admiral Peary,
discoverer of the north pole, con-
sumed eight months in negotiating by
dog sled.
His giant three-motored airplane
carried him safely over wastes which
Amundsen last year pronounced un-
safe for airplane fights, and the dis
lance travelled, roughly 1000 miles,
was equal to more than a months
mushing in the Arctic under the most
ideal conditions for dog teams.
Commander Byrd left Kings Bay at
1875 o'clock, and returned safely at
4:20 o'clock. Byrd was accompanied
on his flight by Floyd Bennett, chief
petty officer in the naval air service.
The entire population of Kings Bay
turned out to welcome the Americans
on their return. Captain Amundsen,
Lincoln Ellsworth and the crew of
their airship Norge, on which they
plan a similar flight, congratulated
Commander Byrd upon his descent.
