Eckener Will Take
 Zep to North Pole

Leispic, Germany, Oct. 6 R - The newspaper Neue Lefpsiger Zeitung today quotes pr. Hugo Eckener, Graf Zeppelin comman- der as saying that he has decided to accept an invitation to lead a Zeppelin expedition to the north pole.
 The death of pr. Fridtjof Nan sen this summer left the proposed expeditions leaderless and Dr. Eckener hesitated when asked to take his place. He was strongly urged by Prof. Ludwig Weick- mann of the University of Leipsic, who is directing meteorological preparations for the flight and will go with the expedition, whereupon Dr. Eckener said he agreed to lead the polar adven- ture.

Special to the Herald)

Special to the Herald)
 Boston, Oct. 6.-After noisy trip aboard the Connecticut special, the main body of the delegation from Eddy-Glover post of New Britain to the national convention of the American Legion, arrived in the Hub shortly before 5 o'clock this morn- ing. Few, if any, of the 54 men on the two New Britain Pullmans got toAleep before o'clock although Major Howard Mitchell, leader of the Eddy-Glover Post Drum and Bugle corps, kept roaming through the train in an attempt to get the members of the band to bed by 10 o'clock in order that they might be in condition to take part in the con- petitiye drills here Wednesday.
 Starting at New Britain, all of the war songs were sung lustily. In Hartford the Hartford, Manchester and Rockville delegations joined the train. A near riot occurred where the ancient clash between Hartford and New Britain cropped up. Both aggregations soon forgot their diff ferences and were fast friends be- fore the trip was very old.
 One by one as 3 o'clock ap- preached, they dropped to sleep and tumult turned to quiet. Suddenly Police Sergeant Thomas J. Feeney found that his bunk was still to be made up and he awoke the entire car while making one-man raid on the porter's quarters.
 Everybody was routed out about 6:S0 o'clock this morning More than 1000 Legionnaires from Con- necticut were registered today at department headquarters in the Hotel Statler. More than 100 of these were from New Britain.
 Among the casualties were War ren Madden, a lost suit case and two left shoes; Carl Nelson, a stubbed toe from a sortie out of his bunk in the wee hours, and Owney Gal lagher, a pair of trousers missing.
 Friends may communicate with New Britain Legionnaires during thei+, stay in BostO by sending messages to Connecticut headquar- ters at the Statler. All men are registered there.
 Leave City Before Midnight
 At exactly 11:53 last night, Sec tion One of t3e Connecticut Spe- ciap' bearing the main body of New Britain's delegation to the national convention pulled out If the New Britain railroad station. Fifty-four Legionnaires, members of Eddy Glover post, No. 6, were comfort ably quartered in two Pullman cars on the train and exuberant voices were heard chanting All we do is sign the payroll" "Hinky Dinky Parlez Vous" and a few other num- bers that reached the height of their popularity in 1918.
 The special was made up in New Britain which was it's starting point. In Hastford, three cars filled with Legionnaires from the Capital City and one from Manchester, were coupled on and the train steamed away into the night bearing part of Connecticut's 5000 members to the annual gathering of former war vet erans from every part of this coun-

 Stating that only his Maker knew whether he would return, Rev. Father Bojnowski boarded the train and facing the crowd, gave his last benedfction in Latin, 'I bless you al. in the name of God and the Holy Ghost"
 Approximately 5000 members of the parish gathered yesterday aft ernoon at 5:30 at the rectory on Orange street while about half that number awaited his arrival at the New Britain railroad station. in an effort to get a last glimpse of the pastor.

SHAD SEASON CLOSES IN
 WINDSOR; CATCHES LARGE
Fishermen Figure Hauls in Ton Lots for First Time in History-Co-
 operate With State.

Windsor, June o0 CP-The shad fishing season closed at midnight last night and this year the Wind- sor fishermen are figuring their catches in ton lots instead Of in numbers as heretofore. The total catch will exceed 20 tons, Three out of the four fishing crews here to- tailed results today showing that by actual count at three ot the fishing places lS.o9o shad had been caught and when the fourth has computed its luck, thls mum Der will be close to 20.000 shad
 The crew Of the mud seine fishing place on the Pennington river. Grant Johnson. Louis Sharp. Fred H, Thrall and George Case, manager. caught 13,350 shad, including the largest catch ever made on the Farmington river, 2,6Q0, weighing five tons.
 All local shad fishermen cooperate to the fullest extent with the state shad hatchery located at Windsor and which operates during the shad fishing season. For many seasons, the shad fishing industry was vir- tually nil ln Windsor. The theory generally accepted is that the silver eels ate the roe Of the young shad. The shad hatchery has overcome this difficulty.

Measuring was the action of one large wire house in reducing It's marginal requirements to approXI- mately 25 per cent of market value.
 Furthermore, 1t was learned that some investment trusts were fairly active buying stocks.
 Wall street did not see how the ! lower rediscount rate would have much immediate influence as banks are largely out of debt and do not
 feel the need of borrowing at the federal reserve but 1t was on the whole favorably regarded in its longer term implications.
