Ross Ice Shelf
A vast area in Antarctica bordering on Ross Sea, an arm of the southern Pacific Ocean. In the western part of the sea is Ross Island, site of the active volcano Mount Erebus. World's largest body of floating ice. It lies at the head of the Ross Sea, which forms an enormous indentation in Antarctica. Its area is estimated to be about the size of France. The great white barrier wall of the shelf's front, first seen in 1841 by British explorer Capt. James C. Ross, rises in places to 200 ft (60 m). The ice shelf has been an important gateway for explorations of the Antarctic interior, including expeditions (1911-12) to the South Pole by Roald Amundsen and Robert Falcon Scott and Richard E. Byrd's expeditions (1928-41). It is the site of several permanent research stations

Betsy Ross
the woman who is believed to have made the first US flag (1752-1836). orig. Elizabeth Griscom born Jan. 1, 1752, Philadelphia, Pa. died Jan. 30, 1836, Philadelphia, Pa., U.S. American patriot. She worked as a seamstress and upholsterer, carrying on her husband's upholstery business after he was killed in the American Revolution. According to legend, in 1776 she was visited by George Washington, Robert Morris, and her husband's uncle George Ross, who asked her to make a flag for the new nation based on a sketch by Washington. She is supposed also to have suggested the use of the five-pointed star rather than the six-pointed one chosen by Washington. Though Ross did make flags for the navy, no firm evidence supports the legend of the national flag. In 1777 the Continental Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as the U.S. flag
H Ross Perot
born June 27, 1930, Texarkana, Texas, U.S. U.S. businessman. After graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy, he served in the navy (1953-57).

Sir William David Ross
born April 15, 1877, Thurso, Caithness, Scot. died May 5, 1971, Oxford, Oxfordshire, Eng. Scottish moral philosopher. He served many years as provost at Oriel College, University of Oxford (1902-47), and later as Oxford's vice chancellor. A critic of utilitarianism, he maintained a form of ethical intuitionism. He held that the terms "good" (which pertains to motives) and "right" (which pertains to acts) are indefinable and irreducible (see naturalistic fallacy) and that certain commonsensical moral principles (e.g., those requiring promise-keeping, truth-telling, and justice) are knowable by mature reflection. His writings include Aristotle (1923), The Right and the Good (1930), Foundations of Ethics (1939), Plato's Theory of Ideas (1951), and Kant's Ethical Theory (1954)
