FIVE MAROONED IN ANTARCTIC 2 YEARS REACH ENGLAND
Southampton, England, April 16 (Reuters) -- Five Britons who were marooned for two years on the ice-bound Antarctic at Stonington Island returned to England tonight after their rescue in February by the relief ship "John Biscoe."
The five were Geologist Vivian Fuchs, General Assistant Robert Spivey, Pilot Pat Toynbee, Surveyor Colin Brown, and Meteorologist Kenneth Blacklock.
They were members of the British Falkland islands dependencies survey group which went to Stonington Island in February, 1948, to study weather, geology, and biology at Britain's southernmost base.
