ure to bring tbe Norge here after ask
j ing Lomen to have a hundred me®
ready to lower her to the ground. The

Norwegian friends, who had planned
elaborate preparations to receive the
'Norge. Then Amundsen decided not
to come here.
NOME. Sunday—Ellsworth said
Rock Islands were seen in the Polar
regions but they were not considered
land. He said he liked the simple
frontier spirit of Alaskan, and said
the crew slept very little on the voy
age as the gondolas they were cooped
1 up in were so small that it was vir
| tually impossible for men to lay
down. He said numerous leads were
' seen in Polar ice which planes flying
into the Arctic bad not reported.
Ellsworth saad that rapidly flying
I airplanes probably would not notice
! the leads.
Ellsworth came to Nome in 1913, as
sociated with Andrew J. Stone in an
attempt to electrically extract gold
from the mammoth deposit of gold
bearing sands of this section. Ells
worth, Amundsen, Wisting and Om
dahl are staying in the log cabin,
which is called '‘Explorers' Club of
Nome.”
Ellsworth said he seat a telegram
to President Coolidge from Nome
thanking him for the telegram Cool-1
idge sent on May 11, congratulating
him on his 45th birthday, which he
spent over the pole.

NOME, May 17, (JP).—It was re
ported at five o’clock Nome time, that
the Norge had been deflated and was
flat at Teller, never to rise again in
Alaska. It will be dismantled imme
diately for shipment to the Tnited
States. Amundsen, Ellsworth and
two others o-f the crew are en route
