(/P) -- Father Bernard Hubbard, Santa Clara university and three students back here after climbing Aniakchak, world's largest active volcano, told today of being chased into the crater by an enraged brown bear. During their ascent of the volcano on foot and without guns, they had two encounters with bears. A bull Kodiak bear, who suddenly appeared in their path, was frightened away by flourishing ice packs; but the climbers could not turn away a brown bear with a cub which they met on the crater rim. The "glacier priest" and the students, Richard Douglas, Georgetown university; William Regan, Santa Clara university, and Kenneth Chisholm, San Francisco univresity, ignominiously fled across a black glacier and down into the volcano. Fortunately, a cliff was too steep for speed and the bear turned back. Gruesome Nightmare. They found the main crater quiet, but a new one which blew out a huge pit within the old one May 1 still was erupting. "It has covered the winter snowfields and glaciers with black ashes and the interior of Aniakchak is a gruesome black nightmare," said the "glacier priest." "The crater is emitting quantities of lethal amber colored gases."
