Harlingen,S Tex, Sept 4 (UP) = Birger Ewing, Harlingen architect, recalled today how a third of a century ago he aided Solomon An dree prepare his balloon fer the tragic arctic flight, history of which has just become known with the finding of Andree's body.
 Ewing. whose task it was to help infate the explorers balloon, recall ed when, as a student in Stock holm, he came to know Andree.
 Andree, he said, made short flights over the country and be- lieved that larger balloon would stay in the air longer than small one. He always dreamed Of the glory that would come to the man who made, the first flight over the north pole.
 T was among the thousands who turned out at Spitzbergen to bid Andree a farewell" Ewing said. Flags and bunting waved from every home. only to be taken down in mourning when no word came from the explorer and his daring companions.
 "A fisherman returning from northern waters brought first word of the partys tragic flight when he reported seeing a large object afloat on the waters. He said it rippled in the wind and I now think the balloon was forced down in the northern area" Ewing declared.
 Several expeditions went out to search for Andree, but in a few years all hope was abandoned and the mystery was all but forgotten in Spitzbergen, Elwing said.
