A4 sxn 3 Reception ‘Recalls Days of Lindbergh’s Return From France. (Continued From First Page.) Dr. John H. Finley, chairman of the! Mayor's Welcoming Committee, They were followed -by a second automcbile carrying Mrs. Post and Mrs. Gatty and other members of the Reception Com- mittee. Behind them, strung out for a couple of * ‘blocks, were automcbiles carrying newspaper men and photog- - raphers, Wt the foot along the North River, another crowd collected and shouts went up as the men appeared: Dock workers, long- shoremen ‘and the crew of the Levia- than, docked at an adjoining pler, had been on the watch for the party for and they suspended work alto- to join in the celebration. Post *2nd Gatty smiled broadly and waved their responses Tape Slows Up. March. The party arrived at City Hall by way of lower Broadway, where & heavy downpour of ticker . slowed their progress. .Crowds jammed into the park in front of City Hall threatened .to be- come unmanageable when Post and Gatty appeared. Two' hundred cheer- ing admirers broke uway from police and started for the main doots of City Hall. Patrolmen got them back into bounds without using violence._ The flyers rode in open touring cars, seated on top of the folded hoods. They were bareheaded. = Mayor Walker welcomed the men in the flag-draped aldermanic chamber while military and police escorts stood at_attention in the plaza below. He greeted them “When you left Roosevelt Field your ship was known as the Winnie Ma When you get: over Russia I think it was decided that the name had become ‘Winnie Must’ And then when you landed back at Roosevell Field last night we knew that the name was ‘Winnie Did.’ More seriously he added: “You've en another line, yes another p: history and science.” Awarded Medals. Post _replied: “It's entirely beyond words for me to express the gratitude we feel to Mayor Walker and the cit- w into izens of New York for their welcome ! to us. Gatty said he was “mighty glad to be here.” F. C. Hall, backer of the flight, told the mayor how much he appreciated the welcome, including his daughter, Mrs_ Winnie Mae Fain of Long Beach, Calif.. in his thanks. n Mayor Walker pinned medals on the fiyers while “The Star Spangled Banner” was played Outside the City Hall the party posed for photographers and proceeded tri- umphantly to the Ritz-Carlton, where the mavor's luncheon was held in honor of the fiyers and their wives It was 7:47 Eastern standard time Jast night that Post and Gatty brought their plane down on Roosevelt Field which they left at 3:56 a.m. a week ago last Tuesday. In 8 days, 15 hours and 51 minutes they flew 15474 around the Northern Hemisphere. Th previous record. established by the G man dirigible Graf Zeppelin two Vi ago, was 21 days, 7 hours, 34 minul 4 Days 10 Hours 8 Minutes. Post, pilot, and Gatty, navigator, left Edmonton at 5:39 a.m. tern stund- ard time, yesterday and flew 1,600 miles to Cleveland, stopping for fuel at 4:15 pm. They took off from Cleve- Jand 29 minutes later for their hop and ended an air tour of 10 countries, Ca Newfoundland, Ire- land, England, Holland, Germau Poland, Russia, Japanese po: ons, Alaska, as well as rious American States, Tw actual flying time was 4 days 10 hours 8 minutes, the average speed per hour, 145.8. A Cheering as crowds have not cheered at New York flying fields since the daye of Lindbergh and Chamberlain and Byrd, hundreds burst through police lines on the arrival at Roosevelt Field and rushed for the latest heroes. For the next hour the field was the scene -of wild disorder. Hundreds fought with police and with one another in determined efforts to see and touch the world flyers. Three times Post and Gatty pretended to drive off the field for New York, but circled to momen ary safety in a deserted hangar. Each time the crowd found them and the siexe was renewed. “Had & Great Time. When the tired men at last did drive away to their first real night's sleep since their race around the world be- gan, there was no possible doubt in their minds that they were famous. but they knew also that fame exacts its price and that they no longer belonged to themselves, but had been taken pos- gession of by the adoring public. The Winnie Mae shot out of the sunset on a gentle slant toward earth and a great shout went up from the field. At terrific speed Post shot over the erowd at about 600 feet. banked steeply, and executed three wide turns about the field. Satisfied then that space was cleared for him he slipped off on one wing, straightened. out and dropped as lightly to the turf as though he were handling a little sport plane ins speedste: “We had a great time,” wearily and tried to smile. a, Post said Gatty was not as near exhsustion as | Post, and he told a little more of their experiences. They'd had plenty of bad weather, considerable blind flying, hard | conditions _of flight, but they'd come through all right and were glad to be home. Post drank his twentieth. glass. of water and summed the whole story up as he w it ‘We had a grea’ time.” he sald, and | that was the end of that. Plans Are Upcertain, What the pair will do after their welcome here remains to be seen. Their backer, F. C. Hall, said they might fly their famous plane around the country. And next year they might try a Pacific flight. The plane itself, Hall said, would be flown to the West Coast for presentation to his daughter, Mrs. Win- nie Mae Hall Fain of Lis Ange whom it was named. Hall expresse himself as more than satisfied with th flight he financed to fulfill & wish e pressed by his wife before she died last September. Among those who grected Post and Gatty were two men who are ready to take off at an early date in an effort to lower the new ord.

Their ship is slower. than the Winnie Mae, but il has dual con- trols so that one can sleep while the other pilots, and they plan to fly prac- tically all the time, day and night. Nothing Like America, Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh were at Roosevelt Field also-to greet the latest herces of the air. Before going to sleep al & hotel in New York Gatty. remarked: % “Nothing' like America and.

When we got to Fairbanks the doctor took a look at Gatty’s injurles and bound him up. Gatly says that as soon as the stiffuess wears off he will be alright. Leaving Fuirbunks 1t seemed as if the rain would never stop. We were hardly | off the ground before we started running into it. As we came along the side of Mount McKiuley the weather began to | thicken 30 that we barged upstalrs. We figured that it was better to be high coming along the shelf of the Cunadian Rockies and, anyhow, the sky was lighter t higher altitudes, even if it wasn't clear. As we came down further and our lond lightened we climbed still higher, where we got a sight and checked our position. We found that we were pretty nearly on the course and needed only & slight change to get us to Edmonton. As we siid down hill through the murk the rain got heavier and so flooded the windshield and windows that we had to poke little pieces of rags and what- ever we had into all the little crevices to keep it from splashing in. ‘The visibility near the groun¥ was better than we expected, but when we looked at the ficld at the municipal air- port st Edmonlon we were almost | ufraid to try to land on it. It looked like & swamp. We slid in over the field, flzttening cut very low and holding the plsne off so that it hardly put any weight on the soft ground and we gol away with the landing alright. But for a0 lour or more we expected that we would have to wait over for the field to dry. = Didn't Have to Worry. We weren't worried, though, because kthe hardest part of the flight was be hind us, our goal was only a compara- tively short jump ahead, and we still had three days in which to make good our word that we would be back at Roosevelt Fleld in 10 days. That is where the hurrying we did on the early part of the trip stood us in good stead and relleved our minds of worry. So when we started yesterday morn- ing we deciced to ride our luck and touk off from & highway which borders the airport. We got off in & run of | about & half mile, and could have risen earlier. We were overloaded on the take-off due to a funny little mistake of ours. We had ordered gasoline and the mechanics filled it with imperial gallons, which are equal to-5 quarts, in- stead of using the American measure- ment, ‘The run from Edmonton to New York yesterday was, the happiest part of the trip, for we were pretty suré then that only the most un of a mis- hap. cold s u. & Flyers Warmly Greeted as Record Flight Ends ELT FIELD WIEN POST AND GATTY LANDED. better than it had been over much of our journey, but it was nothing to brag sbout. We hopped off from Edmonton sl 3:39 am. (mountain time) (6:39 am. New York time), with the rain stll fulling.
