Portland, Aug. 3.-(A)—The MacMillan expedition crossed the Arctic Circle Saturday night. A radiogram received here today, added that the Bowdoin and Sachem had reached Drisko, the objective point in Southern Greenland, and it was planned to start south in a few days, cruising Baffin land and the Labrador coast.

The message was picked up by Kenneth M. Gold of Holyoke, Mass., a student at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and member of the American Radio Relay League.
