Submitted to the U.S. National Committee for the IGY, National Academy of Sciences, in partial fulfillment of IGY Project Number 4.10 - NSF Grant No. Y/4.10/285. This report contains the major part of the glaciological data collected by the 1958 wintering-over party at Wilkes Station. In several cases the measurements reported here are a continuation of those of 1957, and no attempt has been made to duplicate basic information already published in the data report for that year (Cameron et al., 1959). In conformity with IGY procedure, these first reports have been limited to data and to the information necessary for their analysis. A preliminary summary of the glaciological work at Wilkes Station in 1957 and 1958 has been published in the Journal of Glaciology (Hollin and Cameron, 1961) and is recommended as an introduction to this report. National Science Foundation Grant No. Y/4.10/285.
