The p~roverbially unlucky Is has

ing or his degree in chemistry here.
Crigler derives his nickname from
the fact that his father IS a ply
sician. He is 81 and the son OF DR..
and Mrs. J.. r. Crigler, OF Alma,
Ark. He has spent over an entire
Year OF his life in hospitals, has
been unconscious for over two weeks,
and for SO hours been under the in
fluence OF anesthetics.
His First Accident
Docs first accident occurred when
he was but eight years old. He
slipped off from his mother to 20
swimming and fishing with a crowd
OF older boys. While diving off a
bank four feet above water he hit
his head on a submerged rock.
When he came TO. he found him
self OF his fathers operating table.
But within two weeks Little Doc
was again playing with his COM
panions.
Six years later while on a camp
ing trip with IA boys in the White
Rock mountains Of Arkansas, the
bite OF a frightened donkey caused
a complicated case Of blood poison
ing to set in. He was under medical
attention all summer, but ec0ver-
ed in time TO try for the Conway,
Ark, high football team the follow
ing fall.
Within q month he vas in Sc.
Vincent's hospital with both legs
broken and in a plaster cast. To
make his situation more p~recarious
an operation for an acute attack
OF Appendicitis was necessitated.
In the summer Of 1926 two near
fatalities occurred. While painting
a three-story house. his ladder slip
ped off his scaffold, and he fell
about SO feet. But he sustained only
a minor injury. landing in a wire
fence that broke the force OF his
fall. Later in the summer as he
and a pal were exploring the Paint
Rock valley Of Tennessee for buried
gold that an old Indian chief in
Oklahoma City had directed them
to, Doc was bitten by one Of the
huge rattlesnakes that infest those
parts. He barely escaped with his
life through the use OF an age-old
remedy Of Tennessee-moonshine
liquor.
While hitch-hiking TO the Uni
versity OF Arkansas in the fall OF
1923. he was given a ride bv two
men. The car overturned as ii at
tempted to round one Of the dan
gerouS curves on the old highway
near Winslow. Doc suffered three
skull fractures and had TO have q
stitches taken in his badly cut
face.
Last year Crigler and a compan-
ion were seriously injured when a
motorcycle turned over with them
while travelling at a high rate Of
speed. Doc was badly bruised and
battered and small gravel was
ground into his face.
Asphyxiated
During the big SHOWS OF the win
ter Of 1929, Crigler was asphyxiated
by carbon monoxide from the ex-
haust OF a car while riding a sled

PRISON WIRES
WHISPER COOK
characteristics OF Noted
Explorer Are Extolled
At Leavenworth

L~EAVENWORTH, Kan, March &c
%P-Service, kindness and forth
tude were deeply engraved today on
the record Of DR.. Frederick A. Cook.
as the last hours Of his five-year
imprisonment slipped away.
The department OF justice an
nounced yesterday that Attorney
General Mitchell had recommended
q parole for DR.. Cook. who entered
the prison April 5, 1925, to begin
serving a sentence OF II years and
nine months for using the mails
to defraud In connection with oil
promotion activities in Fort Worth
Texas
When news reached the prison
that DR.. Cooks parole had been
approved. the whispering wires"
by which news travels through the
big penal institution. buzzed with
memories or the deeds Of kindness
Of the physician-explorer Hundreds
of these 1900 violators OF the laws
OF society recalled DR.. Cooks words
OF encouragement as head Of a high
school he organized, as night in
terne in the prison hospital and
rs editor of the New Era, the pri-
son magazine.
His ministrations to the sick we're
described. The little extra services
which the 65-year-old former
Brooklyn physician rendered to
prisoners to make them more COM
Portable and his constant appeal
TO their better qualities were re-
membered. No one knows just how
many. but hundreds at least. were
benefited by his cheerful manners
and kindly advice.
In the official family, the guards
likewise had the same views. They
spoke highly of the fortitude of DR..
Cook, who entered the penitentiary
at 90 years Of age and who leaves
at IS, with little money, but opti-
mistic and with plans for his fu-
ture. Warden T. B. White said DR..
Cook had been the outstanding mo-
del prisoner.

Most of the weight was picture taking equipment for we were not satisfied unless we brought out a complete photographic record in movies and stills of the regions visited. This also is the reason why I always chose young men of battleship beam and displacement, as companions.
 ''The tundra was remarkably firm and little underbrush was encoun- tered, so three days mushing brought us to mountain wall where rent 2,000 feet deep allowed the Aniakchak River to pour out in a series of rapids. Camping out side the Gates" we waited a day to reconnoiter and find a way into the crater that lay beyond. R. H. Sargent. topographic engineer, discovered the crater in 1922 Lack of time prevented it's thorough ex- ploration, but it was to MT.

 Thirty Mile Crater
 "The first sight of the crater takes your breath away. A half hours scramble along the slopes and cliffs took us through the Gates. A broad plane dotted by cones and cinder ridges spread out for 30 square miles. A vent moun- tain the size of Vesuvius rose in it's center A lake two and one-half miles long was tucked away in one corner The most remarkable thing about it was that it was spawn ing lake for salmon-and inside a crater!
 "The lake had two lava cones rising a few hundred feet high near it's head. Several cones sheltered by obsidian cliffs afforded good camp sites and in one of these we pitched our. tent.

 Will Tell the World
 With these two wonders thor oughly explored and photographed, we are now returning to the so- called civilization to tell the rest of the world that the stupenduous scenic wonders of Alaska are just beginning to be found"
 Four years ago Father Hubbard climbed the Mendenhall Glacier back of Juneau and in a gruelling three day trek indentified a huge ice cap back of Alaska's capital whence flow dozens of tongues, the Mendenhall, Eagle, Taku, Norris and others on the United States side, joining the Tulsequah, Sloko, Leei- welan and many unnamed glaciers in Canada and forming one of the largest ice systems in the world.
 The following summer with his present cartographer, Red" Chis- holm and John Koby. he attained the heart of Kodiak Island which he found to be a rugged mountain ous country rivalling the Alps.
 Climbed Mt. Katmai
 Last summer, with three Univer- sity of Santa Clara students, he explored the Valley of Ten Thou sand Smokes and climbed Mt. Kat mai, descending into it's vast cra- ter, which the party acclaimed as the foremost wonder of the world.
 While waiting in Seward for the Admiral Watson to bring him and his party south, Father Hubbard, at the Liberty Theatre there, lectured two hours to a crowded house on his adventurous trip. He illustrated his talk with numerous colored slides and with six reels of motion pictures.
 AS the guest of Father Gabriel Menager, Father Hubbard may stay in Juneau few days, and if he does he will deliver an illustrated lecture here.
