How the great dirigible, the Norge, almost destroyed itself and its precious human freight, during its flight from Spitsbergen to Alaska- by way ot the North Pole, will be graphically tod by Cap tain Roald Amundsen, the noted .Arctic explorer, as one ot the in cidents in his lecture, "By Dirig ible from Rome to Teller." to be given on April 19. at The Elsinore theater. That experience probably was one ot the most harrowing that has ever come to any explorer or any flier. The Korge had reach ed the-North Pole, Captain Am undsen and his associates had taken observations, and they had proceeded on towards Nome, Alas ka, discorering the Ice Pole, the geographic center of the ice pack, on the way. It was after passing out of this regton. 400 miles sonth of the North Pole, that they be gan to run into serious trouble. Before long they realized that they were lost in a heavy fog with the danger ot colliding with the high Alaskan mountains ever present. Ice had formed on the metal parts and ropes outside the cabin. The heat engendered by 1 the mo tors caused Ice that formed on the gnodoias housing them to drop off. . They fell on the propellers and these shot the jagged ice chunks in a continuous bombard ment through the ship and ball oons, tearing gaping holes through the frail carfvas that encased the keel. The crew was kept busy patching the holes, themselves in constant danger ot being hit by the missils. Matters looked des perate when they ran out of patch ing materials. For hours there after they were at the mercy of storm winds and the seemingly suicidal mania of the propellers; but finally all breathed a sigh of relief when Teller was sighted. The landing of the Norge at this point was in itself a feat ot daring. tor there was no mooring mast, and it was the first time an at tempt had been made to land a dirigible without assistance from the ground. In addition, a terri fic storm was raging, making the work more difficult and dacger- OBJ. Captain Amundsen plans to tell the complete story ot the Amundsen-Ellsworth expedition, from its inception to its conclusion. In his local lecture. Motion pictures that are said to be among the most re markable ever taken, will give a striking vividness to his talk The trip was started from Rome where the dirigible had been purchased from the Italian government, and made stops at Pulham. Oslo, Len ingard, Yadsoe and Kings Bay, Spitsbergen, from which point ii started on Its cruise of polar ex ploration on the morning ot May 11, 192. It landed in Teller 71 hours later, having been buffeted about by storms for 26 hours be tween Point Barraw, Alaska, and its place of landing. Since Captain ' Amundsen's re turn,; from this expedition the whole world has united in paying tribute .to his dauntless courage and resourcefulness, to which the success of the voyage was largely due. By this achievement he ad ded new luster to his fame as an explorer,, his other natabie ex ploits having included the discov ery of the South Pole in 1911. A brilliant, forceful speaker, gifted with the ability to make his audiences see and feel the things he tells about. Captain Amundsen promises to provide one of the memorable attractions of the sea son -memorable because he is planning to make his present tour his final appearance upon the lec ture platform. Captain Amundsen will arrive in Salem this afternoon in time for the matinee, according to word re ceived recently, by Newell Wil liams, secretary of the Lions club.

As near as can.' le determined the men cut through" a three quar ter inch steel bar- on the window. The implement used is believed to have been a saw, as the old case knife found near the scene of cut ting operations could not have ac complished the job. Chief Mlnto believes. This indicates that the Jail breakers received outside help. Only one of the bars over the window was cut, the prisoners then bending It upward to open a hole large enough through which to squeeze to escape. iThe escape was discovered about 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Prisoners In the jail were trans ferred ,to the women's ward, which was empty, pending repir of the window, which will be made today. Briggs. one of the escaped men, was arrested' Saturday afternoon when he attempted to pass a 19.50 check on which the signature had apparently been forged.
