HIGH SCHOOL CLASSICALIA IS COLORFUL Queen Margaret Rules In Regal Splendor of Venice In a sea of serpentine and gay- ! colored balloons the Ogden High school and its guests revelled in fun-making from 8 to 12:30 o'clock Friday evening at the an¬nual Classicalia given at the Ber- thana. The majority of those gathered were costumed. Upon entering the hall one was immediately attracted to the gon¬dola booths in the four corners, and one was almost tempted to step in and float along tne calm canals of old Venice. The blue room was a melee of Venetian pic¬tures, marble and statuary. Here the games of the famous Lido beach, off Venice, were played with amazing skill. Upstairs the home economics department girls, under a bower of gay Italian flow¬ers arranged in artistic design, served tempting refreshments. The event of the evening was the presentation of the unknown queen in her regal procession. Prior tot the queen's presentation the crowd "was shown a Venetian I street scene with flower girls, fruit girls, and Italian singers. With the echo of "O Sol Mio" still on the air the opera singers in melodious tones sang "Maria, Maria." The two heralds, Ruth Mark and Helen Wilcox, in blue and gold, announced the coming of the queen. To the strains of the "Processional" from the opera "Aida" the pageant emerged. Em¬erson Thatcher, in an elaborate high churchman's carmine robes made a most fitting leader. The four churchmen w-ho followed in black robes, carrying long lighted tapers, added to the ceremonious occasion. As in ancient Venice the cross was linked with the swrord and Frank Rose in a bril¬liant. military regalia with ex¬tended sword preceded the queen. All was hushed. The queen in all the beauty of ancient first la¬dies stepped lightly through the arch and appeared. Miss Margaret Storey had been the choice of the school. In a dazzling head dress of jewels and a purple robe ex¬quisitely decked in pearls and a gold dress ornamented with stones, Queen Margaret hailed her guests. She was one of the love¬liest rulers who ever reigned over any group of people. Louise Reed and Hazel Davis in white suits daintily held her majesty's robe. The maids, Melba Bowman, Kathryn Trousdale, Mary Rich, Lois Fowler, Winifred MacConnell and Dorothy Coop, were most charming ladies-in- waiting. Their costumes were of i gorgeous colors, depicting ancient Italian courts. Then followed flow¬er girls, fruit girls, gondoliers, maids with artistic jugs, dancers, and slaves. When the queen was seated the "Spirit of the Carnival," Louise Eccles, flung fherself before the throne in a sprightly dance. Eight dancing girls swayed in lively rhythm of Italian steps. The slaves—Tom Broadbent, Roger Woods, Larry Trousdale, Paul Skeen, Tom Barker and Charles Thorstensen—formed a unique line. With long, gruesome spears, gay ear rings and jewels, they made a most fitting background for the dancers. The picture of the exotic throne stand and Its occupants with the coterie of Venetian peo-ple formed a most brilliant spec¬tacle. The delighted audience was generous in its praise of the elab¬orateness of the occasion. The Classicalia was in charge of E. S. Smith of the high school faculty. Assisting him were the following committees: General committee, E. S. Smith, Ernest Wangsgard, Emerson Thatcher, Kenneth Skeen; booths, C. L. Coray, Alice Pederson, Hortense Evans, Jay Glen, Parnel Lemon, Evelyn Benowitz; pageant, Reva Beck, Margaret Corless, Margaret Smurthwaite, Gilbert Beck, Elean¬or Weeks; publicity, L. A.

And e'en in waking hours, it seems I hear a voice that sings Of love. A perfect face, it seems to be, With golden. frame of hair And deep blue eyes, which beckon me To kneel before it ther« In awe. I dare not approach or touch it. But only on it gaze, For fear that should I move 'twould flit Into the hoary maze Of yore. God's angels could no purer be, Than she, whom now I see. I knew her once in reality, She then, as now, to me Was life. —William Smiley. ASSEMBLY REPORT President Fife presided at the regular weekly asspmbly held on March 2 4.
