Amid the Of circling arplanes overhead and the

The youth who departed virtually unknown q month

courage, returned to find the National Capital at his

before been witnessed.

The first sign that the cruiser
Memphis was nearing homo came
when the Los Angeles slipped out Of
the mist far out over the Potomac.
Just before reaching the Navy
Yard, she did o right about turn
and circled slowly over the Naval
Air Station and Boiling Field.
A Navy plane swooped over the
yard.
1t headed down the river to greet
the filler.
A few minutes later a great cloud
OF dust blew up from Boiling Field,
across the way.
Hawkers DO Big Business
Still, thousands milled around the
gate Of the Navy Yard, vainly seek
ing admission. Hawkers did a good
business selling Lindbergh pictures
ana gew.gaws. Half q block from
the main gate was 1 large auto truck
carrying q sign: "Anheueer-Busch---
Welcome Lindbersh with the Spirit
OF st. Louis" The truck was dis.

Photographers were everywhere.
1t was estimated that 900 out.of-

ington for the show, augmenting the
scores regularly stationed here.
The Presidential yacht Mayflower
was slipped out OF her berth at the
dock shortly before 10 o'clock to
make room for the Memphis. A
sailor, apparently oblivious to the oc-
casion, had his wash drying on a line
on the forward deck.
The clothes were spotted by an
officer and quickly withdrawn.
The air began filling with airplanes
at 1880 o'clock. In Information they
