Special Correspondent of The Spokesman-Review and the North American Newspaper Alliance with the Detroit Arctic Expedition. (Copyright, 1926.) FAIRBANKS, Alaska. April 22. -- Members of the Detroit arctic expedition were busy yesterday and today equipping the three motored monoplane Detroiter for her flight to Point Barrow and will spend tomorrow in fueling and cleaning up odds and ends before the hop. The ship made a short flight today to correct compasses and test the radio set. Mayor Thomas G. Lanphier, second in command of the expedition, is waiting a weather report by radio from the overland party, which he expects by the end of the week, when the mushers should be on the Arctic coast. No message has been received yet from Captain George H. Wilkins, commander of the expedition, and Pilot Ben Eielson, who flew from here for Barrow last Thursday. "I am sure Captain Wilkins and Eielson are safe," Mayor Lanphier said today. "In hastening our departure for Barrow with the Detroiter I am merely carrying out the commander's instructions. We will have five men in the plane -- Charles M. Wiseley piloting, myself navigating. Andy Hufford as mechanic, all in the cockpit, and Fred Earp and Howard Mason, radio operator, in the cabin."
