Last night at the Palace Theatre. the Rev. B. R. Hubbard gave the first of three lectures scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights of this week His very in- teresting lecture on the trip made by him, with Jack Kobi, Henry Pigg and three dogs, from Menden- hall Glacier to Taku Glacier, last year, was accompanied by a large number of beautifully colored slides made from pictures taken on the arduous three-day struggle over the ice.
 The pictures showed distinctly the deep crevices of the glaciers, the dangerous experiences and the nar- row escapes of the three mer and three dogs on their three day and three night journey over the ice fields, and with Father Hup- bard's inimitable manner of des- cription, made the audience re- joice when the end of the trip, al Taku, was safely reached.

about four hours. It requires about one hour to reach the mapping al- titude of II 900 feet and the planes travel about 75 miles, or less, in reaching this elevation.
 The crew of a mapping plane consists of the pilot, whose busi- mess it is to fly the plane along the ccursc at constant altitude end on an even keel; the navi- gatcr, who nayigates the ship and directs the pilot in the course to De flown; and the photographer, lwho operates the camera. All of yhese men are kept extremely busy with their several duties, especial y the photographer, for exposures are made averaging from 12 to p seconds apart, depending on the ground speed of the plane. The ground speed varies according to whether the plane is flying with, Or against, the wind.
 At the end of a mapping flight. the photographs are brought into the complete laboratory on the barge and are immediately devel- cred. They are cut into 130-foot strips, developed and placed on a huge reel for drying. They are then carefully inspected and num- bered 50 that any of the thousands of photographs may be instantly identified at any time.
 Films Sent to Washington
 When the pictures are inspect cd and numbered, the films are sent to Washington, where the negatives are printed. The centra picture is a contact print, while the two end pictures are placed in a transformer which produces keystone shaped print.

hIR MAPPING OF GREATv VALUE TO
 DEP APARTMENTS
R. H. Sargent Tells of Value and Methods
 of Air Mapping

While complete topographic maps are not made from the photoA graphs taken by the Alaska Aerial Survey Detachment, under the com mand of Lieut.. Commander A. w. Radford, U. s. N, now passing at Juneau, they do supply informa- ten by which base maps showing shore lines, streams, lakes and cul- tural features such as roads. trails, houses, and so forth, may be made, R. H. Sergent, Topographic En- gineer, representing the U. $. De- partment of the Interior with the mapping party, said in an inter- view. N
 Other Methods Expensive
 To secure such information by the ordinary ground methods oi topographic mapping is extremely arducus and expensive. The added value of these photographs is the great amount of valuable informa- tion regarding the timber and wat CT power possibilities to the U. s Forest Service, he said.
 In addition to the mapping pic lures, which arc taken through the bottom of the plane, many obliqut pictures are taken over the side ol the plane ct lower attitudes, show ing in greater detail the timber and water power possibilities. Thes; are taken with large one-lense cam eras, he said.
 Cameras Used
 The cameras used for aerial map ping are constructed with thre lenses with an auxiliary fourth len to be used if desired Three pic lures are taken simultaneously witt each exposure. the middle lens talk ing a vertical picture, and the tw eide lenses, which are obhquel set, taking distorted pictures whicl must be adjusted at the Washing ton, D. C., office by films printe' by means of what is called a trans forming printer.
 For mapping purposes, the pic lures must overlap at least 60 pc cent in the direction of flight an 25 per cent on either side. Fac roll of film is 380 feet long, si inches wide, and is sufficient make l85 exposures, of three pic lures each, which covers an are <pf approximately 400 square mile
 The pictures are taken throug n hole in the bottom of the plan which is fitted with water tigt hatch. When the plane leaves tt water. the cover is taken off an camera adjusted. The camera suspended in the fuselage of u plane on a huge gimbal ring, u same as is used for the compa of a ship. which permits it to accurately level.
