Mr Shipton is, as you know, theleader of our expedition to the Himalayas. Several weeks ago, as you know, he reported by radio that he had found footprints in the snow. These were of such a strange nature that we have brought him backfrom Nepal to report to us here at the Society. Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr Shipton.

VOICE 1: | That's a likely story!
likely: muyprobable; |
CHAIRMAN: | Please sir, I must ask you to be quiet. |
