the increasing pressure of the

One of the detectives Of the
engineers is to determine how
much stress ice will stand
how far they can go with their

before they will collapse. The
amount of stress increases the
farther they proceed and the
greater the weight of ice above
the roofs. Thus far results have
been very encouraging. Ice Is
