The International Meteorological Organization at a meeting of directors of meteorological institutes in Copenhagen in 1929, determined that the 2nd International Polar Year will be held from 1932 to 1933. The Polish National Committee of the Polar Year developed three alternatives of conducting researches within the program of IP YII. The alternative assuming the building of a permanent sta tion on Bear Island and conducting follow-up researches during the next year was finally chosen as the accepted option. Due to the limited financial resources, 3 persons were selected to partici pate in the expedition: Czesław Centkiewicz, Władysław Łysakowski and Stanisław Siedlecki. In the initial period (until mid-September of 1932), in the expedition there also participated Jean Lugeon and Jan Gurtzman. The media was initially set against the expedition. The expedition departed on 12 July, 1932 from a town of Legionowo, near Warsaw. It reached Bear Island on August 5, 1932 and left on August 18, 1933. The different records, collected with an extensive amount of effort, during the stay on Bear Island were analysed (at least partially) after the explorers returned to Poland. There were four notebooks Résultats des Observations de ľ expédition polonaise de ľ Année Polaire 1932-1933 à ľ Ile des Ours and several other publica tions printed. The first Polish expedition to the Arctic proved to be an extremely successful venture. The scientific and research objectives were almost completely fulfilled. Poland, in a very effective and positive way, became known in the world of science. The experience gained during this expedi tion was bearing fruit for years to come both to its participants and to the entire Polish world of science.
