Thursday morning (9 p. m. Wednesday, eastern time.) (By Associated Press) FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany, July 31.-The Graf Zeppelin, giant German dirigible, was preened in its hangar today for its start at dawn Thursday for Lakehurst, N. J., on its second westward trans-) Atlantic venture. Passengers gathered from all over Europe, among them various Americans. Some rushed from great distances so as not to be left behind when the mighty craft pokes its nose westward with the, daybreak on its great adventure. Cargo, including several baboons and baggage of the passengers, and a large quantity of oil, was in the holds, fuel tanks were filled, and cells were inflated. Knut Eckener, the tall, fair-hair- ed son of Dr. Hugo Eckener, skip- per of the dirigible, predicted a prompt getaway at dawn Thursday. No Delay Permissible "Whoever isn't aboard by then must hold the bag " he said, "for we can't wait any longer. The weather prognostications are ex- cellent, and we don't want to de- lay a day longer than is necessary, as we want to start on our world flight as soon as possible.". The Graf Zeppelin expects to arrive at Lakehurst probably cir- cling over New York City, Sunday, at the completion of a four-day trip over a course of probably more than 4,000 miles. The ship will remain at Lake- hurst three or four days, beginning there about Aug. 7 its round-the-' world trip. Cruising eastward, its first stop will be Friedrichshafen for three or four days, its next at Tokio for four days, and the last at Los Angeles for four days. 17 Days of Flying "We expect to use 17 days for the flight itself, exclusive of stops," said Capt. von Schiller, third in command. "The journey with the stops in- cluded, should take a little less than a month. In crossing the Pacific the dirigi- ble will not be able to fly above the-Hawaiian islands, since it will take a "great circle" course from Tokio for Los Angeles which will take it north of the archipelago. A new safety contrivance has been added to the Graf's construc- tion. Anl airtight rubber tubing of considerable size, attached to they bottom of the passenger gondola,f it is believed, will prevent the ves-. sel's sinking should it be forced to alight on the water. Dr. Eckener today declared himself fully satis- fied with the results of the tests., Lighting Is Subject Of Higbie Talk Today "Natural Lighting of Buildings" will be the subject of the lecture to be given at 5 o'clock this afternoon in Natural Science Auditorium by Prof. Henry H.

Tomorrow O'Brine, and Jackson will ride in a parade through the city to be publicly acclaimed. They will follow the same route traveled by Col. Chas. A.

Arise Early The flyers, guests in a downtown hotel, arose early today refreshed from the 17th day of living in cramped quarters in the sky and after going through fan mail and being given shaves and haircuts were driven to the city club. They were presented with inscrib- ed wrist watches by the Chamber of Commerce and received many other gifts presented through the Commerce chamber. Maj. Wm. B. Robertson, president of the Robertson Curtiss Airplane Mfg. Co., which sponsored the flight announced that the company would make and give to the flyers a spe- cial challanger Robin airplane, the type of ship with which they broke the endurance record. He also an- nounced he would back them im another endurance flight if thei, record was ever broken. Major C. Wassal and T. C.
