Scout Aide Chosen for Shackleton Expedition Beloved Prologist
A British Scout selected from thousands joined Shackleton’s call for two aides. He earned high praise as both prologist and meteorologist on the expedition. The Iceland ship will carry eighteen men, though Algarsson and Humphries plan to sail the "Himp" with a smaller crew. Plans include a west Spitzbergen belt and advancing into polar ice to establish a base before the "Himp" proceeds toward the pole.
