each Of which must not only function
correctly within its own sphere of
activity. but must also synchronize
with every other part of the system.
This means, in the broadcasting of
sight, that transmitter and receiver
must fit as lock and key, that every
major improvement in the first neces-
states a corresponding improvement
in the second.
Just suppose. for example, that tele-
vision had been popularity introduced
last autumn. Suppose that many
thousands of receivers had been made
and sold. At that time we were using
a 24O- line television picture with
frequency of "a per second. Every re-
ceiver built for such pictures would be

obsolete today with the 343-line,
60-frequency pictures. Either that or
we would have to keep operating trans
mitters that were much inferior to
what we could build.
Great improvements unquestion-
ably are ahead in this new art of the
radio waves. The very rapidity of
recent progress stands as warning that
we are far from a reasonably stabilized
development. 1t would be economic
folly to set up a nationwide system at
tremendous cost, only to find it hope
lessly inadequate in short time.
Clearly. the next stage of television
is proper field demonstration by which
the basis may be set for technical
standards. A few years from now the
story may be - we hope it will be -
different.

five Europea ms and eleven porters.
That night they ate their soup and
planned the final dash to the top. But
during the m ght the wind rose - an

morning the snow began.
One of the tent poles was smashed,

sleeping sacks, the snow driving

the try for the summit.
The second night was worse than
the first. Reluctantly they decided to
60 down. telling themselves they
would return in week or two.
They found it impossible to keep
together. Two Of the Sahibs, Schneider
and Aschenbrenner found themselves
alone. They stumbled on, scarcely
seeing or feeling, until they came on
the nearly submerged tents of Camp
Five. They dug down to shelter and
managed to eat something.
That was the turning point for
them. With new life in their half
frozen bodies they waded again into
the snow and lunged and wallowed
their way down the slope As night was
falling they reached Camp Four.
This was below 20, 600 feet and al
though the storm and cold were
intense, it was, to them, habitable
spot. There they we're met by some of
the party who had come up from the
base camp. fearing what might have
happened.
There were still fourteen above
without food or shelter.
Next day four porters stumbled in
- frost-bit ten and scarcely able to
stand.
Then for six days the party in Camp
Four waited with hope dying.
Every day they tried to ascend to the
help of their comrades but their last
reserves of strength were not enough
to struggle up through the storm.
On the sixth day man appeared
from above, the porter Angtsering. He
stumbled in almost blind, on his face
a look of frozen terror. He told the
last chapter Of the tragedy.
The nine left above would never
come DOWN. One by one they had sat
down in the snow and gone to sleep.

the cloud of snow spray ahead of the
avalanche blotted out the dots.
He stood still for moment. Then he
realized that the avalanche was COM
ing toward him, crossing the level
plain, reaching swiftly toward the
tents like tidal wave He shouted to
the cook: Run"
But the snow was waist deep - it
was like trying to run in nightmare.
Then, halfway across the plain, the
mass of snow blocks began to slow
down and finally stopped two hundred
yards short of them.
They made their way slowly toward
where the party had disappeared. To
their amazement some figures showed
themselves, then more. The climbers
had been just on the edge of the
avalanche's path and had managed to
escape it by few yards.
All except Chettan. He was found
crushed to death by the ice blocks.
Kangchenjunga waits for new
climbers - and they're on the way.
Manga Parbat is another killer.
Snow and storm were the weapons
that it used to bring about one Of the
worst catastrophes in climbing history.
In 1892 Merkl of Munich led a
party against Manga Parbat. They
fought their way up its lower slopes,
dug in camps to hold each successive
advance and were within striking dis
tance of the summit when the storms
broke over them and after weeks of
battling they had to retreat.
Last year Merkl was ready to repeat
the assault. He assembled a strong
party. BY the middle of May they had
established their base camp and for the
next six weeks they struggled upward.
The key to Manga Parbat, like that
to kangchenjunga, is an interminabIy
long ridge leading to the SUBMITS. On
it camp after camp was set up and
provisioned.
On one side of their ridge they could
look down the southern side of the
mountain, an almost sheer precipice of
5000 feet. That's a precipice that l
don't know how to visualize. Fifteen

be beaten by cutting a tunnel up
through it - it took two days.
After two weeks they had reached
the upper portion of the ridge where
the angle was easier. The weather
still held fairly good and their hopes
were high. They decided on an all-out
try for the summit.
But during the night the weather
changed. Snow fell heavily and in the
morning they had to dig themselves
out of their ice-cave. All day the
weather grew worse.
Then the wind and snow came on
with the fury of a tropical storm. BY
night it had fallen to depth of seven
feet and their communications were
cut off.
They held a council. 1t might be
possible to wait out the storm and
still make the dash for the summit.
Their courage was fully equal to it.
But Bauer shook his head.
With communications cut and the
reserve parties held below by the
storm they would no longer be working
as team. The decision was to retreat.
That retreat was an epic that sur
passed the ascent. They fought their
way down through shoulder-deep
snow. Always there was danger of it
avalanching with them. Once on the
narrow crest of the ridge the leader of
the roped party slipped and started
sliding down. In another moment the
whole party would have been pulled
down to destruction. But the second
man on the rope had the presence of
mind to throw himself down the oppo-
site slope - and the rope held.
At last. in the final stages of ex-
haustion. they staggered into the
base camp.
Bauer was already planning his
next attack on Kangchenjunga.
One of the reasons climbers aspire
to Kangchenjunga is because it ranks
among the most dangerous mountains
in the world. The deadliest of all
avalanches is the ice avalanche and
that's the one of which Kangchenjunga
makes a speciality.
The year after the Bauer expedition
an international party was on Kang-
chenjunga. headed by Swiss, Pro-
fessor DyhrenfWth, and including the
Englishman Smythe. They were
attacking the North Ridge.
Half mile from camp, across an
almost level snow plain, a wall of ice
barred the way toward the summit. 1t
was five hundred feet high and so steep
that in places it overhung. For a week
they labored on it, cutting steps.
One morning as usual large party
left the tents and made their way up
to the wall. There were fifteen alto
gether. four sahibs and eleven porters.
One of the latter was Chettan,
famous tiger" who had been with all
three of the Everest expeditions and

behind. The latter had spent six days
on the wall and was worn out.

it happen.
A broad section of the wall had COL
lapsed and masses of ice, las high as
cathedrals," were still topping over.

avalanche's path, was a struggling

Success in high altitude climbing
needs the fighting spirit that Mallory
had, the spirit that drives the body to
its utmost limits.
1t was such spirit that drove F. S.
Smythe, one of the best of the modern
English climbers. above 5000 feet on
Everest. In 1881 he led party to the
summit of the highest mountain that
has yet been assembled, kamet. 25,447
feet. peak of the Carnival Himalaya.
1t was an expedition perfectly planned
and courageously executed, carried
through without the loss of life.
Another recent attempt that will
always rank as classic. although it
failed in its objective, was the Bauer
expedition to Kangchenjunga in 1929

climbers want almost as badly as they
want Everest. There's none that puts
up harder fight
Paul Bauer of Munich spent years
in preparation for his fight with
''kantsch" as the Germans call it. At
last he assembled party of Bava-
rians who. in courage. endurance or
technical skill. would have been hard
to match.
Arrived at the foot of the mountain
they decided to attack by the northeast
spur. an ice ridge leading up to the
chain of SUBMITS. 1t was the sort of
climbing that a first rate expert would
undertake in the Alps if he felt sure
that he could 60 up and down again in
a day. But this ridge couldn't be
climbed in day - it couldn't be
climbed in week. Well then - they'd
take as many weeks as necessary.
They'd climb as far as they couldeach

There we're difficulties before they
even reached the foot of the ridge. On
the way up to it they had to climb an
ice-cliff where. at one time, seven of
the party were spread-eagled on the
smooth face with no security but the
hand-holds and foot-holds that they
had Clipped out with their axes. Step
by step they surmounted it and at
last reached the crest of the ridge.
1t was place that a mountaineer
would describe as rather exposed and
that most of us would regard as
wildly sensational. The ridge was so
narrow that in places it was knife
edge from which they could look down
either side, down sheer precipices to
the glaciers thousands of feet below.
They worked their way up the crest.
At night they found a place for their
tent, shelf of rock seven feet square
overhanging the precipioe - not a
place for sleep-walkers. Then another
days work and another. One camp
site was scooped out of the hard snow
just below the crest of the ridge at a
point where it was so narrow that too
vigorous blow of the ak drove through
the opposite wall, leaving hole
through which they could look straight
down. Further up they slept in caves
hewn from the solid ice.
Every day they hacked and hauled
their way up, some days making only
a few hundred feet. At times they had
to climb ice set at an angle of seventy
degrees and one ice pinnacle could only

During the first four months of
1895. Waterbury had 17s auto ac-
cidents, resulting four deaths and
injuries to 142, according to figures
contained in an article by Com
missioner Michael A. Connor of
the state motor vehicle department
in the May issue of the Connecti-
cut Motorist, Titled, Murder on
the Highways" the article urges
again that drivers not only exer-
else care in handling their vehicles
but also make certain that the
lighting and braking equipment on
their cars is not defective.
The Waterbury figures for the
period from January to May list
of this year are almost the same
as those for the first four months
of 1894. During that period last
year, Waterbury recorded 181 ac-
cidents, 1877 persons injured and
five auto deaths.
Worse Since '31
Unless there is a sharp drop In
accidents, Commissioner Conner
says there Is reason to believe that
by the end Of the year, the state
will have compiled its worst ac-

there were 1901 reported acct
dents, with injuries to 12,90S per-
