Lieut.-Col. L. V. STEWART BLACKER : 'India-J,
Over Mount Everest'
Lt.-Col. Blacker was a pilot of one of the aeroplanes of the Houston Mount Everest Expedition. He will describe the approach to Mount Everest by air, the flight over ploughed fields, jungle belt, then over low wooded hills, reaching at last the huge ice cliffs of the world's highest mountain. Special arrangements have been made to relay this and the other talks in this series, to the cinema of the Imperial Institute, South Kensington, for school audiences and the general public, where an exhibition of the Everest photographs taken by the Expedition is now onviow.
