Meeting of Graf Zeppelin and Nautilus at the North Pole
An illustrated note describes a planned summer rendezvous at the North Pole between the Graf Zeppelin and Capt. Sir Hubert Wilkins' submarine Nautilus. The German airship will carry 45 people with polar survey gear. Dr. Hugo Eckener will drop an electric anchor to freeze into the ice. Lady Drummond-Hay is billed as the sole woman passenger aboard.
