Plans to fill with celebration the
brief few minutes which the Graf

In the event that the arrival is
at night the description will be

the beacon on the roof Of the Ward

immense light will shine on the

Dining and lounging salons, a

as the Zeppelin arrives at Lakes

By noon today. If the Zeppelin
maintains an average speed of so
miles an hour, she should be a
little more than 1900 miles off

speed of So miles an hour for the
balance of the journey, her arrival
at Lakehurst should take place

her flying career on her trans

LAKEHURsT, N. j., Aug. a.
dN.S.eSoldier, sailor and visitor
today began peering toward the
horizon awaiting eagerly the arriv-
al tomorrow of the Graf Zeppelin
from across the seas.
Everything was set for the recep-
ton of the giant airship on the com.
pletion of its 1900 mile trip from
Friedrichshafen.
The special ground crew of 400
sailors and marines assembled at
the naval airport were given a
blackboard drill.
Space was roped off in the big
hangar for the German visitor.
Special precautions were taken
against possible fire due to the in.
flammable hydrogen used by the
Zeppelin. f.
Traffic rules for air and land
were put into effect by military
and naval authorities.
Aircraft not included in the off.
cal escort to the zeppelin were
ruled out of the picture. The escort
will include two baby blimps, the
Mayflower and the Vigilant. The
property OF the GOOu 1eAE Zeppelin
Company. ths> Mayflower will ar.
rive today from New Bedford, Mass,
and the Vgilant will come from
the Aberdeen Proving, Ground in
Maryland.
Numerous refreshment stands be.
gan mushrooming in the vicinity.
Their proprietors began buttoning
up the overcoats on myriad frank
furters in preparation for a holiday
crowd expected to break all records,
standing, running or sitting.
Although the Zeppelin was not ex.
pected to float into town before to,
morrow afternoon, the roads leading
to Lakehurst began jamming UP to-
day with conne-to-see-it tourists
Snakes who crossed any road did
it at their own peril.
And there were plenty of pedes

The bleacher crowd for the spec.
tacle was expected to include the
stay.at.homes in New York city and
the Metropolitan area, for the Yep
will probably strut her stuff over
the skyscraper city before landing
at Lakehurst.
Within a few days after her ar
rival, the Graf Zeppelin plans to
take off for her round-the-world
trip. Fuel supplies for the airship
are stored at the naval station.
On the return trip, the five May.
bach engines in the Zeppelin will
use an American fuel known az
Ethane. The airship is using Blau
gas on its westward voyage. More
than Loco, 900 cubic feet OF Ethane
ls stored at the station here.
The crowds milling about the field
here are displaying some curiosity
about the identity Of the stowaway
reported imprisoned aboard the Zep
and as to his treatment following
arrival. Opinion differed as to the
amount of punishment he deserved
for possible endangering the lives OF
the 50 people aboard by his act.
May Use Elevator
The large mooring mast here will
not be used unless a strong wind
Is blowing. In that event, the afr
ship will be moored and its passen.
gers landed on the elevator con.
nected with the mast. 1t is likely
the smaller nooring mast will be
utilized before the large ground
crew walks the Yep into her hangar
berth.

been on constant duty attempting to
pick up the call of the air Pullman,
