Corrigan Puzzled
About His Future

S. S. Manhattan, at Sea, Aug. a.
-(AP)-DOuglas COrrigan, only a
little less important in the minds
of Irishmen today than Brian BOru
and others, grinned with pleasure
today as he stood at the rail of this
New YOrk-bOund liner and looked
forward to the welcome awaiting
him.
The ship moved at half speed
through fog. COrrigan was in fog,
too, or at least he said he was, as
he remembered all that has hap
pened to him in the month past
the flight in the old crate from
California to New York, the take
off for home, and his surprise at
finding himself in Dublin-Of all
places.
He knew, of course, what waited
him i'm New York, for he had got
more than dim idea of New
YOrk's frenzied greetings a couple
of days before he started his wild
transatlantic flight, when the city
went little balmy over Howard
Hughes and his four woodworking
companions.

Around the Newton factory the
number of sentry posts had been in
