"Keeping Physically Fit" - Admiral Byrd Expedition Article by C. Ward Crampton, Sept. 1935
A "Keeping Physically Fit" article appearing in the September, 1935 Boy's Life Magazine written by C. Ward Crampton about the Admiral Byrd Arctic Expedition. The center image of the column shows Admiral Byrd greeting Paul Siple. They are standing with a small group of men near their sleds and skis. A few sled dogs lie in foreground in the bottom left corner. Although the date of this column's publication suggest the article chronicles a portion of Admiral Byrd's second arctic voyage, the article describes Byrd as "rejoining his first Antarctic Expedition at Panama." C. Ward Crampton's account starts as an adventure story, describing the crew as having explored "every wild corner of the world," before segueing into praising Byrd as the first to "have his personnel given a thorough medical examination and overhauling before they engaged in the grueling labors." In the following sections he endorses his philosophy of preventative care by first describing a man they disqualified and then describing future illness he was able to predict and address it. In the final section, Crampton describes the tests he used to assess the explorers' physical aptitude so that readers could assess their own.For a biography of C. Ward Crampton, see: https://springfield.as.atlas-sys.com/agents/people/551
