Flyers to Greet Him. As many of America’s airmen who have distinguished themselves and brought honor to their country by ex- ploits in the air as can reach Washing- ton by Saturday will be with the of- ficlal welcoming and raception commit- tee at the Washington Navy Yard, when Col. Lindbergh arrives, and also at “the Washington Monument cere- monies. Fach one of them personally will greet the flyer and fall in line behind his car and those of the official party on the journey to the Monument for | the presentation ceremonies. Outstanding among the airmen will bé Comdr. A. €. Read, commandant of the Naval Air Station at Hampton Roads, Va., and commander of the NC-4, the first airplane to fly across the Atlantic, although it was not a non-stop journey. Ranking also in importance will be Lieut. Oakley ‘G. Kelly of the Army, who made the first transcontinental non-stop flight from New York to San Diego, and Comdr. Richard Fvelyn Byrd, U. S. N., re. tired, who, with Flovd Bennett, his { pilot, flew from Spitzbergen to the North Pole and back, a distance of about 1,600 miles. Real Air Festival. Other notable airmen will be ‘the ipants in the flight from New ork to Nome, Alaska, and return, | which was led by Capt. St. Clair Streett, now adjutant of Selfridge Field, Mount Clemens, Mich., and who will be with the Ist Pursuit Group of 21 single-seater, speedy fighting planes due here for the occasion; at least one member of the Army world flight, Lieut. Russell L. Maughan, who mads the trip from New York to cisco between dawn and d Thomas G. Lanphier. comn the Porto Rican flight and now com mander of the 1st Pursuit Group, and | members of the recently completed Army pan-American flight. K While these airmen will greet Col. Lindbergh on the ground, other air jmen, in their element, will be soaring overhead in at least half a hundred | airplanes and the rigid airship J.os Angeles. Although the reception to Col. Lindbergh is regarded as being national in scope, the presence of xo many aireraft, it the weather yermits, will have the tendencv of turning the elcoming exercises into an “air fes- 11" of proportions never seen be- ti fore. Mother May Greet Him First. It whether is not yet definitely determined Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, his mother, will be in the official party gree him at the P arf in the Washington N t dec on being left to M " bergh herself. Mrs. Coolidge has noti- fied the women's committee of which Miss Mabel T. l;; rdman is chairn arrangeménts have been m ave Mrs. Lindbergh met at Union Station by White House car. If she decides to greet her son in the Navy Yard as he steps off the cruiser Mem- phis, she will probably be escorted hyv John H: Hammond, chairman of the cif ns' executive committee. In that event all others will deferentially stand back and allow the mother to be first to greet her son as he steps ashore. The especial task of the cilizens committee now is to try to accom- modate the largcst of those who are imperatively de- manding an oportunity to fefe the fiyer and to have a place in the re- served section on the Washing Monument Grounds. Chairman Hammond press today ally two poin that it is ab: iutely immpossible to make arrang ments for any other events on the pr gram for “Lindbergh day,” because there, is no time ond, that seats on possible number asked to empha the the President’s stand are oniy for offi- cials; that there are not enough of these to supply the usual official list, and that all spice in the roped “standing’ room” is for those who must be assured of a place and that this has already been disposed of by cards. Another Chance Sunday. This includes such persons as the presidents of the various citizens' as. sociations, the directors of the three big business organizations and the of- ficial representatives of other nations and States. ‘Those who are disappointed on Sat- urday in being unable to see Lind- bergh will be afforded another chance Sunday over a wider area.
