82074 U.S. NAVY OPERATION HIGHJUMP BRIEFING FILM w/ 1939-41 ANTARCTIC SERVICE EXPEDITION FOOTAGE
This briefing film "The Antarctic" was prepared especially for members of Operation HIGHJUMP. HIGHJUMP, officially titled The United States Navy Antarctic Developments Program, 1946–1947, was a United States Navy operation to establish the Antarctic research base Little America IV. The film draws upon footage shot in 1939-1941 by the Antarctic Service Expedition, also often referred to as Byrd’s Third Antarctic Expedition. The Expedition consisted of 125 men aboard two ships, USMS North Star and USS Bear. Observations were conducted in every conceivable area: seismic, cosmic ray, auroral, biological, tidal, magnetic and physiological to name a few. Two bases were established, only to be abandoned as the world political climate deteriorated. HIGHJUMP represented a return to the Antarctic by Byrd and the United States Navy.<p><p><p><p>Opening titles and message for members of Highjump: U.S. Navy - The Antarctic (:07-1:16). Map shows South Pole and Little America. Staggerwing biplane flies above the Antarctic. USS Bear and USMS North Star shown at anchor by an ice floe. ships. An expedition member holds a shovel, others have frozen beards. A blizzard event -- the men walk through it. Norfolk, VA Navy Yard, November, 1939, USS Bear is shown with the Barkley-Grow T8P-1 airplane on its deck. The plane has specially built pontoons for arctic service. USS Bear leaves the harbor (1:17-3:29). Sailors work on the boat en route to Antarctica from Panama, they assemble sledges. The men move the sledges. A man ties pieces together to make the sledge ready (3:30-5:26). King Neptune Ceremony at the Equator, and the initiation of the polywogs into the mysterious Order of the Deep. A lieutenant shakes hands with a man dressed as Neptune. People in costume rub and feed a hapless victim. They slap at him with objects, as the hazing ritual continues. Men climb ropes on the sailing vessel with toilet paper and bottles, as part of the game (5:27-7:06). Icebergs are passed, water churns and the ice pack is reached. The expedition proceeds to the Ross Sea. From the ship, one can see broken ice, choppy waters, and the ship slowly make its way through the Bay of Whales. Killer whales swim nearby. The ship arrives and moors on the ice using ropes and "deadmen" -- pieces of timber attached to ropes which are used to hold the ship in place . A landing party is sent ashore with picks and axes to create holes for the deadmen and secure the ship. Penguins stand on the ice as the ship moves slowly in the background. Men walk the ice as penguins move near them (7:07-9:05). Penguins put on a show on the ice, as the Bear and North Star sits at anchor nearby. At 9:47, a rare view of the ill-fated Antarctic Snow Cruiser vehicle, designed from 1937 to 1939 under the direction of Thomas Poulter,. Penguins run and glide on the ice. Cargo is hoisted off the ship. A ramp is set to unload the Snow Cruiser. The Snow Cruiser comes down the ramp, which it breaks, and almost slides off. The Snow Cruiser is rushed to thicker barrier ice away from the edge, before the ice breaks up. A Curtiss T-32 Condor II airplane is then unloaded. Dog sleds and tractors are used (9:06-10:58). Tractors tow supplies. M2 light tank gets stuck in the snow due to narrow tracks and presumably heavy weight (11:43). Tractor pulls out the tank. Tank backs up with a man behind it (10:59-12:31).

52744 SOUTH POLE CITY 1957-58 BUILDING OF AMUNDSEN-SCOTT SOUTH POLE STATION ANTARCTICA
Presented by Douglas Aircraft and the U.S. Air Force, SOUTH POLE CITY was written by famed author Richard Tregaskis (whose WWII books are much beloved). The film tells the story of Antarctic operations and the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station, a United States scientific research station at the South Pole, the southernmost place on the Earth. It was built during November 1956, as a part of its commitment to the scientific goals of the International Geophysical Year (IGY), an international effort lasting from January 1957 through June 1958, to study, among other things, the geophysics of the polar regions.<p><p>The film promotes the use of Douglas Globemaster II C-124 aircraft which were used to supply all materials to construct the base and keep it going. The Globemaster II served in Operation Deep Freeze in 1955-56, and proved a valuable aircraft in support of forbidding polar temperatures and conditions. <p><p>The film shows air operations (starting at 5:00) from the 1946-47 Antarctic effort by Admiral Richard Byrd known as Operation Highjump, where the DC-3 was shown (Navy version = R4D ) deployed from the USS Philippine Sea (6:00) using JATO take-off. At 6:33, a terrible helicopter accident is seen, fortunately non-fatal. A PBM-1 accident shown at 7:00, suffered a fatal accident during a whiteout -- emphasizing the danger of polar air operations. <p><p>At 11:26, the 1956 expedition to the South Pole is seen, with the construction of an airbase at McMurdo Sound for the C-124s, flying in from New Zealand. The aircraft would paradrop supplies to the South Pole, at a distance of over 700 miles. At 21:58, a serious problem is seen developing as warmer weather caused the ice runways to give way to the heavy C-124. Eventually the runway shrank in size, and appeared completely in jeopardy, which might cause the abandonment of the base. In reaction, air drop flights to the pole were increased to three a day, and low altitude drops made of certain items without parachutes. The stepped up schedule produced the desired result, and the station was able to stay in operation through the winter.<p><p>Before November 1956, there was no permanent human structure at the South Pole, and very little human presence in the interior of Antarctica at all. The few scientific stations in Antarctica were located on and near its seacoast. The station has been continuously occupied since it was built. The Amundsen–Scott Station has been rebuilt, demolished, expanded, and upgraded several times since 1956. The original station was constructed by an 18-man United States Navy crew during 1956–1957. The crew landed on site in October 1956 and was the first group to overwinter at the South Pole, during 1957. The low temperature recorded during 1957 was -74 °C (-101 °F). These temperatures, combined with low humidity and low air pressure, are survivable only with specialized equipment.<p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!

THE FORMER GYMNAST HAS ALREADY CLEARED SEVEN FEET TWO INCHES. SCHMELING: "I WAS WATCHING HIGH JUMP ONE DAY AND I'M A TUMBLER....A WHILE BACK...SO I DECIDED YOU CAN USE THE POWER OF BOTH YOUR LEGS RATHER THAN ONE AND YOU COULD DO A CART- WHEEL. AND I WAS WATCHING THE HIGH-JUMPERS DO THE FOSBERY AND IT JUST DIDNT LOOK EFFICIENT ENOUGH TO GET ANY HEIGHT OUT, SO THAT'S HOW I CAME INTO TRYING THE CART-WHEEL." REPORTER: "HOW HIGH CAN YOU GO ?" SCHMELING: "I DID SEVEN-TWO BUT I CLEARED IT PRETTY GOOD ....I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH... MAYBE FOUR OR FIVE INCHES." IN HIS FIRST COMPETITIVE COMPETITION THIS YEAR, SCHMELING CLEARED SIX FEET TEN INCHES TO WIN. BUT HE WAS LATER DISQUALIFIED BECAUSE OF HIS CONTROVERSIAL TAKE-OFF WHICH IS AT TIMES, SAID TO BE MADE WITH TWO FEET INSTEAD OF ONE. THE MATTER HAS BEEN TAKEN UP BEFORE THE N.A.I.A. - THE UNITED STATES SENIOR ATHLETICS AUTHORITY.
