The Sno‐cat “Haywire” one of four used in Dr. Vivian Fuchs' 2,150 mile journey over Antarctic snow and ice has been presented to the British Petroleum Company in appreciation of the contribution made by the Company to the success of the expedition. The Company provided at their own expense, all petroleum fuels and lubricants for the party from the U.K. as well as that led by Sir Edmund Hilary from New Zealand. They also commissioned at their own expense a film record in colour of the expedition which will be ready by the late summer and B.P's. share of the proceeds from the commercial screenings will be placed at the disposal of the Trans‐Antarctic Expedition.
