transfer
@. What happens if veterans

of his training in one school and
part in another?

Rome sMen, Hunting
Seals for Dogs, Find
Oscar Doesn' I Qualify
By comdr. Finn Rome

RONNE ANTARCTIC EXEDI-
TION, MARGUERITE BAY, April
"a tNANA) -Climatologist Larry
Fiske, one of our Antarctic green
horns, got shock the other night
while making his rounds as camp
watchman when the grey rock" he
was about to step on reared up
and barked at him. When he walked
back to where he'd been standing,
he found Oscar.
It seems that this camp has be-
come the venue for the local pup
seal snow-rolling and waddling
society. Anyway, Oscar, for all his
four months, had a friend with him
OR maybe she was his sister.
Antarctic seals know no land
enemy and they appear quite tame
in an inquisitive way until they
sense danger. Then they can be-
come very vicious. They have been
known to snap off the tip of a ski
poked at them In fun. These animals
are hair seals rather than fur seals
and though their pelt has no COM
mercial value, they are valuable as
food.
One of the problems of an ex-
pedition down here is meat for the
dogs and it's always necessary to
stock UP on seal meat early, before
the winter night puts an end to
hunting. Since our arrival, ex-
pedition members, two at time,
have taken one-day seal hunting
trips around the nearby fjords, and
it has become pretty competitive
matter.
Second Pilot James w. Lassiter
and co-pilot Charles j. Adams are
current leaders. but Mr.. Fiske isn't,
far behind. And it's no wonder
that when Larry spied Oscar, his
thoughts were on an easy catch.
His outrage was something worth
seeing, however, when the more
experienced eye Of Chief Pilot Harry
Darlington voided the kill on the
grounds that they were pups, not
over four months old, weighing only
300 pounds and only five feet long.
Oscar and his sister now are
camp pets. free to come and go at
willard they do, usually from the
kennels and to the kitchen shack.
