GLACIER PRIEST RETURNS
ILonunuea irom rare unej
the thousands of sea lions estab
lished there. The ship visited erup
ting Makushin volcano on Unalas
ka Island, and then went to Wislow
Island where the Stoll-McCracken
expedition of several years ago
robbed this noted spot of its chief
treasures, the primitive Aleut mum
mies laid away in its sea caves.
Returning to False Pass, Fr. Hub
bard awaited the Steamer Victor
ia from Seattle. On it were Rev.
Paul Galtes, S. J., Rod Chisholm
and Ed Levin. The complete party
went on the fisheries boat, Crane
to Kejulik Bay to make a scienti
fic study of Aniakchak and its
fumarolic encrust ations. After
packing equipment half-way to the
crater the party was met by Frank
Dorbandt and relayed in several
thrilling night landings inside the
volcano.
Storms delayed the research work
but finally with good weather a
, systematic study of the v ol c a n o
was begun. The climax was reach
ed when Fr. Hubbard, Chisholm,
Levin, Peterson and two dogs
crawled down inside the new er
upting pit which is three miles in
circumference. In passing the ring
| of deadly gases to get to the mid
] die of the pit, Mageik, the blue
eyed dog hero of the Katmai and
; Shishaldin climbs, was overcome
by the sulphur dioxide fumes. The
dog’s piteous howls brought Peter
son to his side and the brave young
trapper rescued the dog with no
thing worse than burned feet.
The first thermometer placed in
j to the steaming ground rose stead
ily to 350 degrees Centigrade, its
limit. In the Valley of Ten Thou
and Smokes, Dr. Zies, of the Car
| negie Institute, was elated over
! melting zinc at 600 degrees. The
j Santa Clara party tried the test
J metals and lead, tin and zinc were
melted in short order only 12 inches
under the ground they were walk
! ing on.
! Copper, whose melting point is
| 1080 degrees Centigrade, was tried
I and melted in a few minutes—the
i highest temperature ever official
ly recorded in an Alaskan volcano.
At that the hottest spots, where
blue vapor indicated 2.000 degrees
Centigrade heat could not be ap
proached.
; Fr. Hubbard considers the area
i more active and spectacular than
it was last year. Over two hours
were spent in the bottom of the
pit gathering fumarolic specimens.
There are more smokes in Ani
akchak than in the Valley of Ten
Thousand Smokes now.
The prolonged stay in the pit
in the interest of science affected
the party physically. The noxious
gases caused intense nausea and
bowel troubles while the heat sing
ed hair and burned shoes. It was
with a sense of relief that the
party climbed painfully out of the
pit with their precious photo
graphic and mineralogic r e c ords
which they submitted to Rev.
Father Galtes, the elder member of
the party for inspection.
After completing the Aniakchak j
survey the party packed out 100
pound packs to Kejulik Bay where
the Polar Bear awaited them. Vis
iting several uncharted bays and]
unmapped regions along the Alas
ka Peninsula the party went to
Kcdiak Island. Dr. Ales Hrdlicka,
of the Smithsonian Institute, was
excavating one of the ancient vil
lages called to his attention by
the Glacier Priest two years ago.
Fr. Hubbard conferred with the
noted ethnologist, his close friend,
on his present findings, which are
the most important yet found in
tracing the Asiatic migration to
this continent.
Fr. Hubbard likewise told Dr.
Hrdlicka of two more buried vil
lages located on the Aleutian Is
lands by his party this year.
From Seward the Santa Clara
party will go to the Malaspina
Glacier and then study the gla
ciers of the Mt. St- Elias range
in Yakutat bay, winding up the
season in the middle of July, in
Juneau.

Do you inhale? Of course you do! Lucky

because certain impurities concealed in even
