Puiliam, Norfolk, England, July : Groat lrit ainl's mamlmoth. I ranis-Atlan tic air pioncer, the dirigible iZ-:3l, i rivedl here at 6:56 o'clock, Greenwich mecan ttime, today completing her round trip froin the British Isles to the United State,s and return. The R-3 I poked her nose out. of the clouds northeast of the village and aftei circling the flying field three times, glided gently to the grounild and ten minute.v later was housed in the dirigible shed. The voyage from Long Island was without particiular in cliiit and was con)pleted in approxi mately 75 hours. Shouts from those on the field greet ed the first sight of the long gray body low on the horizon. As the R-3.1 ap proached the field, she dropped from a height of 5,(100 feet to 2,000 feet. Tie men who wore to aid the airship In landing were ordered to their positions and waited silently as the ship eir cled the field, dropping lower and low er. When Nlajor G. II. Soett, her eg mander, had 'maneuvered the airsh a1to position for the landing, the wa er ballast was released to steady her and a rope was thrown from the bow. The rope was grasped by eager hands and the gianI ship moved across the -leId to ihe shed wlhIre the delicate operation of herithing hIer was com pleted(l quickly without accident... A muilitaly hand stationed ol the field plhiyedl "Tho Call of l)tIt" as tl airship began to settle and then changed Ito he strains of "Seo, The Conqueri ng Ittro Comes." As tie ship was warped into tIe shed the hand played "Keep [Ih-- Ilome Firues ring."' 'lho crowd was too intent in watching the shi101o not ice I Ie music, while 1thv whirr of the propel lors made it inaidible to the men in -ihe R-3-.

"The voyagle Iomle has been with out Ineidenlt," Said M\ajor, Scott. "We want breahast." After breakfast, aild while enjoying the belated luxury of his little black pipe, smoking not being permitted on the airsiip. .lajor Scott. told the story of the return flight as follows: . "We estimated we wotId make it In from 70 to 80 hours," he said. "We made It in 75. When wo left we had a strong wind behind its and we cover ed the first 800 miles in about eight hottrs. When we circled over New York we could plainly see the crowds on Broadway waving to us as we pass ed, but we could not hear them be cause of the noise of the engines. "South of New Foundland we en cotintered head winds and .Our pro gress from 'then on was slower. We travelled at an average height of from 3.000 to 5,000 feet and found much low clouids and fog. Once we saw nothing by fog for 21 hours. . "We struck, Ireland'at Clilfdlen and nade good progress from there al 0hough ou r steering engine- broke down Saturday morning.
