Prof. William I-I. Hobbs of the
geology department and directW,
of the University Greenland expedi-
tions will leave Ann Arbor tomor-
row andl sail from New York for
Bremen, Germany at midnight Friday
on the first leg of his trip to Mt.
Evans, Greenland, where the north-
ern weather observatory of the Un-
iversity is located.
The other members of the expedi-
tion, Ralph L. Belknap, second in
command, L. R. Schneider, aerolo-
gist, Duncan Stewart, assistant geo-
' dosist and geologist to Belknap, and
Francis M. ;Baer, radio expert, will
sail May 19 from New York aboard
the S." S. ;Bergensjord ;for Oslo,
Norway. The entire party will leave
Copenhagen for Holstensborg June 1
aboard the Danish government ship
Disko.
Will Cartr Walrus
At H-olstensborg they will charter
the motor-schooner Walrus, used for
the same purpose last year, to con-.
vey them to the head of Soendra
Stroenjfjord, where the Mt. Evans
station is located. C. R. Kallquis of
the United States Weather bureau,
aerologist on last year's expedition
will return to civilization on the
R boat'that takes Professor Hobbs and
the other men in.
Professor Hobbs, Belknap, and Ste-
wart will leave Greenland about1
September 1, leaving Schneider, Carl-
son, and Baer at Mt. Evans for the
winter observations. According to
- present plans, Professor Hobbs does
not plan to maintain a force at the
station after 929, but he expects
that the station will be taken over
by an International organization.
At least one European flight, pro-
bably two, and possibly three will
mnake a base at Camp Lloyd near M.
Evans, on the shore of the fjord, dur-
ing the summer, for transoceanic
flights between the United States and
Europe via the arctic circle route.
Bert J. Hassell -will fly a singe mo-
tored Stinson plane, which is being
x finished this week at Northville, from
Rockford, Illinois, to Copenhage!i
with a stop in Greenland.
To Refuiiel At Mt. Evns
Hassell will refuel his plane at
Mt. Evans with gas which will be
taken in by the Hobbs expedition.
The landing place which he will use
is a long sand flat believed to be
suitable for the purpose. Speaking of'
the landing place yesterday, Profes-
sor Hobbs said, "'While we have pro-
vided photographs of the possible
- landing field near Camp Lloyd, we
are assuming no responsibility for
its being an adequate field" A flying~
man to be chosen by Hassell may be
added to the expedition as a regular
member to advise in aeroplane mat-
ters,' according to Professor Hobbs.
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh land-
ed at Ford airport yesterday morn-
ing for a conference with Major
Thomas Lanphier. It is rumored that
he and Lanphier are planning one of
the other flights to Europe this sum-
mer via Mt. Evans. Professor Hobbs
was recently called into conference
r with Lanphler and William Mayo
chief engineer for the Ford Motr
company, with regard to the feaA~.
bility of the arctic route to Europe
for airplane travel.
Lindbergh and Lanphier, althoutith
they denied the rumors, are said to
be awaiting the return of Henry
Ford from Europe to learn whether

the Ford Motor Company will lend
them the use of a plane for the flight.

Soon after Professor Sadler caine to
the University of Michigan the con-
struction of a'model testing tank was
decided upon, and its design, as well
as that of its accompanying equip-

completed it was the ,second tank of
its character in the country and the
only one in an educational institute.
Here research work in ship cons! rue-!
