NO B|G PROGRAM
 BEING PLANNED
Tindy' and Mother to Spend
 Quiet Christmas

Mexico City. Dec. 22 LP-Thc thoughts of Colonel Charles 4. Lindbergh today turned to the pro gress of another who travels by plane-his mother.
 Mrs. Evangeline Lodge Lindhersh Is expected to arrive at Mexico City either late today or tomorrow morn ing and her son plans to fly 10 meet the plane bringing her from De troit.
 Lindbergh and h.s mother will have q quiet Christmas eve dinner Saturday night at the United States em bassy. Nobody outside the per sonal and official family of Dwight W. Morrow. American ambassador. will be present.
 There will be no official program Christmas day. The flyer and his mother will be left free to spend the day precisely as they please. On Monday afternoon. however, Mr. and Mrs. Morrow will hold a reception for Lindbergh and Mrs. Lindbergh, thus giving the members of the American colony their hsst oppor- tunity to meet the airman.
 That probably will be the last function for the flyer in Mexico City as it was announced in Guatemal. City last night that Lindbergh would leave Mexico City at q. m. Tuesday and was expected to arrive at the capital of Guatemala at ?. m, the same day.
 A few free minutes afforded Lindy the first opportunity to take tht. Spirit of St. Louis up since he ar rived here. The plane was In per feet condition-absoluteiy ready to carry him on his Central American flight.
 Mexican business men at q ban duet of the Mexico City chamber of commerce hailed the lone eagle as d. traveller whose visit would stin1u- late commercial relations between Mexico and the United States.
 Mrs. Lindbergh may rest quietly at the embassy here with MT. and Mrs. Morrow. when the flyer motors tomorrow and Saturday to Cuerna- yacA ana the Caves Of Cacahuamllpa. At first it was planned that Mrs 1indbergh and tn, Morrows should go along but then t was decided that the 200 mile automobile trip would be too tiring for Mrs. Lind bergh after her long trip here by air. On the trip Lindhergh will be tho guest of aviators from the Val huena flying field.
