Knappen Returns From Alaskan Trip With U.S. Survey
Party Explores Peninsula
Previously Unmapped;
Finds Three
Volcanoes
- Prof. Russell B. Knappen of the department of geological survey returned Monday from Alaska where he has been since the last of May. The party, which consisted of a topographer, and his assistant, a cook, two packers, and Professor Knappen repeated the survey. They went to the Alaska Peninsula, which is in the extreme southwest part of the country.
"The object of the trip," said Professor Knappen, "to was to explore a region not previously mapped out, and there is only a very hard knowledge.
"The region consists of a mountain range which lies against the Pacific ocean, rising steeply to a height of 3,000 feet. It declines as rapidly to a flat marshy plain which extends from land to twenty miles to the Bering sea.
Temperature Never High
"The temperature was rarely above 90 degrees, and in the valleys there were many small ponds." Aug. 25. On the highest mountains the snow fell at least every month. There is no snow, but bushes grow very hard.
"We found three very large volcanoes, which had recently been active. One of them was $8,000 high with, at most, 200 feet. And we did not notice any earthquakes."
"The principal use of this region at the present time is for the catching of salmon. There are three cannery districts, costing $10,000 of salmon last summer."
Party Lived Comfortably "Our living conditions were very pleasant. We took four tents, all of them mosquito proof, which is a great safety feature." One night, One night, One night the mosquitoes became so bad that the horses drifted 50 miles.
"We had to carry all our food except a very small amount of game, which consisted of some birds, especially chickens, that roamed in a creek stream. We took the lightest food possible, such as powdered milk, powdered eggs, dried potatoes, peas, beans, rice and rolled corn hulls; ours were the only plant food found.
"We had to take hay and outs for the horses for the first ten days, but later there was plenty of grass. The grass is extremely luxurious, being about three or four feet tall. This is very difficult to walk around. A mile in one-and-half hours is considered a good walk.
Wild Life Is Abundant
"Wild life is unmanageable."
There were people in this region, but they were very much afraid and kept out of the way. There are also red foxes, martin, wolverine and leopard.
The principal unpleasant feature was that it rained so much, and the clouds hung so low on the mountains. It was like the rainy days and on trying to pass an exposed
place, one was obliged to crawl on his hands and knees. We covered about 2200 square miles."
Professor Knappen will leave this evening for Harvard where he will take up his work as a lecturer, Chancellor E. H. Lindley said he was interested in lectures that Professor Knappen be granted a leave of absence for a year.

Give me a pipe .and P. A.!
WHEN Comp. Lit. and Physics 3-B are crowding for attention; when I've just received an over-cut notice from the Dean; when my allowance is a month off and the stub of my checkbook confesses a balance of $9.32, give me a pipe and Prince Albert. I want to be happy!
Trouble's a bubble, they say. And I can prove it . . . with my jimmy-pipe and P. A. Just never was a friend like Prince Albert. Cool and sweet and soothing, P. A.'s true-blue smoke zooms up the stem, knocking troubles for a row of test-tubes.
Never a tongue-bite or throat-parch. Just cool contentment, no matter how hard you hit it up. Give me a grate fire to chase the chill of winter nights, an easy chair and my jinny-pipe packed with P. A. Nearby, a tidy red tin for frequent refills. I know, Brother! I know!
