AERIAL SURVEY.
BYRD EXPEDITION ’PLANE. LITTLE AMERICA, Nov. 19. Mr Harold June started his third important exploration flight this afternoon. He expects to cover about 700 nautical miles, making an aerial survey of the hitherto impenetrated glaciated wastes of Marie Byrd Land and the prolongation of Edsel Ford Land. To-day the tractor party reported that it had successfully retreated from the crevasses just south of the 81st parallel and was moving north-east to reach the good surface which the aviators located during their flight two days ago.
