ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:

It is a pleasure to thank all of the members of the Victoria University of Wellington Antarctic Expedition for their help and friendship, and particularly Messrs. T.R. Haskell and W.M. Prebble who accompanied me on the traverse. Operation Deepfreeze and the U.S. Antarctic Research Program authorities co-operated wholeheartedly. My part in the work of the expedition was supported by a grant from the United States National Science Foundation, (Ohio State University Research Foundation Project 1444).
