noon
Gerd and Ruth and Kellogg borrowed his airjeep and started north ; he and Borch went across the run to make measurements after Rainsford and Jimenez arrived and picked up Mallin . Borch took off soon after with the boat for Red Hill . Left alone , he loafed around the camp , and developed the rest of the movie film , making three copies of everything . Toward noon , Borch brought the boat back , followed by a couple of scowlike farmboats . In a few hours , the Company construction men from Red Hill had the new camp set up . Among other things , they brought two more air jeeps . The two jeeps returned late in the afternoon , everybody excited .
