THRILUNG
* Exclusive pictures of the flight of
th* Graf Zeppelin are being shown
this week at the Columbia and Pal
ace theaters.
The pictures were made by Robert
Hartman, M-G-M News and Interna
tional Newsreel cameraman, who
was the only photographer allowed
passage on the giant “Zep.”
Particularly interesting to Wash
ingtonians are the “shots” taken
while the Graf Zeppelin was flying
ever the city. Close-ups of four
members of the ship's crew repair
ing the wind-damaged port stabilizer
fin w’hile 1.500 feet above the At
lantic, furnish all the thrills of a
film.
There are shots of the take-off
from Frederichshafen, from above
Heidelberg; the crossing of Gibral
tar, sighting the Virginia coast, and
es cities along the seaboard.
TTa.rt.mann is Berlin cameraman
for the Hearst picture and newsreel
services. Special arrangements were
made in Advance to rush the unde
veloped films and “plates*’ from the
Graf Zeppelin, when it landed, to
the New York laboratories.
A customs guard was aboard the
eraft as soon as it was close enough.
He handed the films over to a repre
tentative of the Hearst pictures serv
ice, who, in turn, rushed them to the
Airport adjoining the Lakehurst field-
The films Were flown to Newark,
from which point they were taken
by motorcycle, under police escort,
to the Manhattan laboratories.
In the meantime, airplanes were
Hying to New York with pictures
taken in cities over which the "Zep”
had flown. By the time Hartmann’s
films were developed, the other pic
tures had arrived and the Hearst pic
tures service had exclusive newsreel
releases of the start-finish and high
lights of the epochal flight.
Commerce Chamber for
• Hospital for Cripples
The Washington Chamber of Com
merce indorsed the plan to build a,
hospital school for crippled children
of the District at its first fall meet
ing at the Willard Hotel Jast night.
The second five-year school building
program also received the Chamber’s
indorsement.
A report submitted by the chari
ties committee in favor of the com
munity chest method of financing
local charities was adopted.
