President Gales and the airman
earlier in the day pored over map
of Mexico as the American explained,
through an interpreter, his flight and
some of the fundamental points in
volved in flying and navigation.
The aviator's probable course from
the time he lost his bearings at
Tampico was plotted. He and the
President decided that the plane
moved in a big circle westward
through the States of Morelia and
Michoacan, back to Mexico City.
Lindbergh listened to Mexican mu-
sic until after midnight. An enter
tainment in his honor was given by
the foreign Office in one of Mexico
City's largest theaters. Three thou

from early in the evening until Lind

as he and Gales and Morrow entered.
At one time during the evening they
turned toward the box and shouted:
"Lindy, Indy. Indy"
The airman rose and stood at. the
edge of the box and smiled and bowed
his thanks. He did not say word,

The foreign office assembled the

enjoy especially the singing Of Ignacio
Fernandez Esperon. Esperon is bet

| sobriquet "Tatanacho" and Is sort of
| George M. Cohan of Mexico and
one of the country's most popular
composers. He played and sang a
