24 January 1958 105 OCEA ICE AND ROTORS Antarctica and the helicopter are pictured on this page. Above, the vivid design of cracks across an ice-floe, on which a helicopter casts its shadow. Below, right, the same machine, an H04S of the U.S. Navy, lands on ice-breaker U.S.S. "Glacier" near McMurdo Sound. Thirty-five miles away, at Cape Bernacchi, an HSS-1 (below, left) alights on what may become Antarctica's first permanent airport, in the course of a survey of the suitability of the site.
