Mr. CLIFFORD COLLINSON, F.R.G.S. : ' Captain
Scott'
Mr. Clifford Collinson concludes his second series of talks on famous explorers with an account of the two Antarctic expeditions of Captain Scott. Scott led the National Antarctic Expedition (1900-1904), and set out on his attempt to reach the South Pole in 1910. The sledge journey to the Pole of Scott and his four companions, the discovery that they had been forestalled by Amundsen, and the death of the explorers on'the return journey make up one of the most heroic chapters in the history of exploration.
