    text
    Haroun Tazieff the Polish scientist, has
    spent his life-time studying active vol-
    canoes and deep caves in all parts of the
    world. In 1948, he went to lake Kivu in
    the Congo to observe a new volcano
    which he later named Kituro. Tazieff was
    able to set up his camp very close to the
    volcano while it was erupting violently.
    Though he managed to take a number of
    brilliant photographs, he could not stay
    near the volcano for very long. He
    noticed that a river of liquid rock was
    coming towards him. It threatened to sur-
    round him completely, but Tazieff man-
    aged to escape just in time. He waited
    until the volcano became quiet and he was
    able to return two days later. This time, he managed to climb into the mouth of
    Kituro so that he could take photographs and measure temperatures. Tazieff has
    often risked his life in this way. He has been able to tell us more about active
    volcanoes than any man alive.
