Eckener Planning To
Start Return Trip

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Dr. Hugo
Eckener expects to start the Graf
Zeppelin on its return flight to
Germany in about 10 days.
"But first" he said Tuesday,
1--WE will fly to Pittsburgh, Akron,
Detroit and perhaps to Chicago
and some other cities"
In company with Capt. E. A.
Lehman, his first officer. he out
lined the future of the huge Yep
pelin as he neared the reception
New York had prepared.
"The damaged horizontal fin
will be fixed by the end of the
week." he said. "It is only the COW
er that is damaged. We will be
ready to go back by the end of
next week"
with favorable winds we will
probably make the return journey
in three days" Captain Lehman
estimated, "but it is not safe TO
make guesses. I cannot say what
the cause of the damage to the
fin was. No definite statement
should be made until after a com
plete Investigation"

Obi" Sally thought in a new
flutter Of terror. "She heard Betsey
call me Sally Ford. She's going to
question me. I wonder who she is.
Maybe she's a trustees wife-oh,
she's coming! She's going to talk
to me"
She rose from her high-backed,
gilded chair, trying to do so with
out haste. Since the performance
was ended she had every right to
leave the tent, and she would do
so, but she mustn't run. She must
not give herself away
Hello, Enid! 1 couldn't believe
my eyes! What in the world are
you doing so far from Park Ave-"
Sally, forcing herself to walk with
sedate leisureliness down the little
wooden steps of the platform, saw
the New Yorker who had been pay
ing her half-mOcking, half admiring
attention all afternoon, stride swift
ly and gracefully across the tent to-
ward the gOlden-haired woman. So
he too had witnessed Betsey's hys-
terical Identification! She had for
gotten that he was in the tent,
watching her, smiling mockingly,
biding his chance to ask her again
to go to supper with him after the
last show that night.
The gOlden-haired woman halted,
and Sally, out of the corner of her
veil-protected eyes, saw an express
sion of startled surprise and then
Of annoyance sweep over the beau
tiful little face. Odd that these two
who had so strangely crossed her
path in one hectic day should know
each other, should meet a thousand
miles away from home, in the freak
show tent of a third-rate carnival
"Oh, hello, Van! I might ask what
you're doing so far from Park ave-
nue., but I suppose you're visiting
your cousin, the Governor. Courts
here on business and I'm amusing
myself taking the orphans to the
carnival. A new role for me, isn't
it-Lady Bountifull Poor little
devils! If only they didn't want
to paw me-"
Now that she was safe from be-
ing questioned Sally wanted to
make her passage to the ALLEY
door Of the tent take as long as pos
sible, so that not a note of the
music of that extraordinary voice
should be lost to her. She had ex-

rich, thrOaty contralto. little AFRO

Sally would have been divinely con-
tent to listen to it, no matter what
words it might have said.
Sally paused at the door of the
tent, and cast a swift glance back
ward over her green-satin shoulder
Van" was holding one of Ends
hands in both of his laughing down
at her. mockingly, but fondly, as il
