The committee didn't examine him ,so they are not in trust.
Second, the reading says that, a recent expedition provides support for Peary's claim that he reached the North pole in only 37 days after setting out from Ellesmere island off the coast of Greenland. However the professor says that, the speed is different between Peary and Avery, moreover Every dropped by airplane, and Peary was in unfavorable conditions. furthermore Every was so different from Peary.
Third, the reading argues that, there are photographs taken by Peary that support his claim to have reached the North Pole. But the professor says that, the photographs don't approve anything. The shadow of the photograph should precise to locate the position of the sun. But the shadow looked blurred and it cannot used to calculate the position of the sun and cannot confirm that they were taken at the North Pole.
